yes, the possible permutations between N objects of which n are in position A and (N-n) are in position B are

N! / ( n! * ( N-n)! )

so, we have N = 6

for 5+ n = 5 and N-n = 1 so 6! / (5! * 1!) = 6
for 4+ n = 4 and N-n = 2 so 6! / (4! * 2!) = 15
for 3+ n = 3 and N-n = 3 so 6! / (3! * 3!) = 20

bye bye
Liga

BTW. about the mod ... it seems great! I hope to have the possibility to play it soon!

ok thnx . so you chose this formula
but i am unsure if you may only chose this formula or if you have to include something else .
because for 5+ of 1 path i think there should be 12 possible solutions :

AAAAAW , AAAAAE , AAAAAF , WWWWWA , WWWWWE , WWWWWF , EEEEEW , EEEEEA , EEEEEF , FFFFFA , FFFFFW , FFFFFE .

so 12 not 6 possible permutations right ?

i am unsure which formula(s) to use to get this outcome .
for 5+ it is easy to find it out because you can do the 12 permutations manually .
but for 3+ etc. you need a formula .

i forgot the permutations but i think you may not use your formula because this way you miss 6 possible permutations for 5+ example .

but i don't find a formula for this now so please tell me if i made a fault again or when you found a new one

Storm troops
I could give the storm troops 'storm res.', 15 gold extra for the commander, 5 gold for regular and for stormdragon 100 extra?

Didn't knew thee was problem with resisting abilities :/....is illwinter aware of it?

Temple troops
The protection is base protection, you have to add armour protection....ummmm is x-bows armor piercing? Can't remember.

The temple Lord and temple guards can't fly due to religious believes ....nah, just kidding. Well they can't fly...I just need a good story to back up why they won't/ can't fly.

Also the temple Lord go an extra misc slot, that's why I made him expensive. He can't fly but uses his wings to wear an extra item.

Temple priest any suggestion(s)? lowering the cost?

The Dragons
They got the same item slots as Pretender dragons.
I'm still unsure if they should have the option to lead. If they can't lead we can cut down some of the cost.
No magic paths for the dragons.

1: Fire res: (75) means 75% right ?

Right


Ummm...hope I didn't missed anything

i am not 100% sure with the resistences but i remember if you had 50% fire resistence and wanted to cast a spell which gives +100% the ai interupted .

so i think with 75% it may be a real problem .

could someone plz confirm this ?


with the protection i thought that is with armor values added so sorry .

because i have no modding expierience so far i was unfamiliar with some of your abbreviations

i think i will say nothing more now but say my opinion in the beta then
because e.g. that with the protection of 7 was a misunderstanding of me

so when i can see it ingame it is much easier for me

your mod seems so far very advanced do you already have a date when you plan to publish the beta ?
and do you draw the unit animations yourself or is it e.g. possible to copy some from aow 2 sm or something similiar ?

I'm afraid I can't put a specific beta release date :/ ....I make a little here and there on the mod due to the time I got... I still need nation preferences scale and description on the units, nation description.

The animation (the sprites) in first round gonna be cut, paste and recolouring of existing units to cut down the release date magnificent.

hm if you don't modify any sprites for the beta ?
then you can take all your time for the sprites and the betaUsers can already give feedback on the units

[Thilock_Dominus]

It only takes a couple of minuts to cut,paste and recolouring, so I think I'll just make'em.

Here is a try on the draconian Elder:


The body from C'tis, wings from the original Draconian, recolouring the dancers weapon and tadaaa a draconian Elder
Is it this what you had in mind how the draconian will looks like?

My Idea on how to split the draconian races into diffrent colours:

Draconian Mages and regular draconians: Green skin colour
Temple Draconians: White Skin Colours
Pyro draconians: Red Skin colour
Storm draconians: Light Blue Skin colour
Scout unit : Black Skin colour

Or does it becomes to confusing?

This formula is ofr the permutaion once you have fixed your results ...

so, if you decide that you want a 5 Air 1 Everythnig but air, you (as you post in your first message) have a probability of 1/4 ^ 5 * 3/4.

But that result is without permutation becouse you can have 6 ways to get a AAAAAAR and that are

AAAAAAR AAAARA AAARAA AARAAA ARAAAA RAAAAA

of course if yiu are interessed in a generic (not specific) 5 level mage you have to multilply that possibility by four

To prove that that is true ... if you want a 5 Air 1 something else you have 3 (R = E,F,W) possibility for each of the 6 permutaions so are 18 possibility for a total of 4 ^ 6

18 / 4096 = 0.00439453125

that is exactly the same number you got form

1/4 ^ 5 * 3/4 * 6

good play
