Anyone else excited about the next patch?

Or, imagine a unit that casts fire flies - national turret?

Sounds like a Watcher.

But after you said "turret", I got visions of trampling tanks rolling across the battlefield...

[Amos]

I made such a turret in my Commonwealth mod. It fires lightning.

Amos: tasika, 'nihongo _wa_ dekimasen' to itte tigawanai hoo da na?

Chotto mate! Nandeska? Wakarimasen.

Whats the level before the beginners level? Thats my level of Japanese. So your Romaji is completely lost on me.

I see. Not a problem. What I said was, "IIRC, 'nihongo wa dekimasen' is the correct way, right?" (literally, 'is not the wrong way...').

And LOL @ JapaN00b.

Hm. I guess item modding has to start somewhere. Any idea if we can restrict them?

#onebattlespell is a tag that makes a commander cast a spell in the beginning of a battle. Storm, darkness, summon wolves, etc.

[Wyatt Hebert]

KO: Does it only actually do something for a commander, or could you put it on a unit (to autocast Air Shield, for example)? Also, does the unit gain fatigue for the spell cast, and, if so, is it 5 like for an item spell, or the normal fatigue?

[Kristoffer O]

Unfortunately it only works on commanders. Tke kuro oni was originally supposed to summon wolves. Now only oni generals does this. I've had other similar experiences. If you need the feature post some cakes. I wouldn't mind getting access to spell effects on non-commanders as well

No fatigue as far as I know.

[Foodstamp]

Sombre is going to be excited

[Lazy_Perfectionist]

"Post some cakes."

????

Well, here goes nothing. A Boston Cream Pie, to be exact. I'd love to forge a darkness casting artifact.



If you were in Florida some time, I could buy you some really good cake. As it is, I can only recommend an excellent frozen Boston Cream Pie and to die for Bavarian Cream Eclairs.

[Sombre]

YAY!

Oh man that's awesome. I know other people aren't as excited about this as me, but this adds so much stuff we can do. I'm not really interested in having it in troops (can you imagine all the troops on a battlefield casting their spell one by one at the start of the battle?) but having it on commanders will be great.

[Maraxus]

Hm, it would be really nice to have that on troops.

I have made a mod about Githzerai (it's hanging in the void waiting for completion at the moment) and this means: Kick (and punch)-*** Monks. And if they had the ability do deflect arrows, this would be even cooler.
