(1-10)<br> <span style="color:#BF0000"><br> 6.5/10. Slightly harder than the previous scenarios, but still appropriately challenging. </span><br> <br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> <br> <span style="color:#BF0000">Defeat the lich-dwarf. No problem. <br> </span><br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> <span style="color:#BF0000"><br> Love the "I AM A WITNESS!!!" bits, lol. The masked dwarfs were a pretty original take on the dwarf faction. Nitpick: the "cut-scene" after this was a bit lacking, for a true ending. </span> <br> <br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> <br> <span style="color:#BF0000">Not losing any of the three heroes. Having to split the army and fight more than 1 front; leaving a rearguard to choke off pursuit. Rotating warriors (since I only had 2 healers: 1 white mage and the dwarf witness). Wraith ambushes!! (Didn't see those coming.)</span><br> <br> (6) How fun do you think the scenario is? (1-10)<br> <br> <span style="color:#BF0000">10/10. The map was very well-designed. The unlimited time was a good move, as it encouraged exploration; plenty of forks. I took a long time to finish this map; despite that, I did not feel this was especially tedious--thoroughly enjoyed it. A fitting conclusion (in terms of scope) to the campaign. </span><br> <br> (7) What, if any, are changes you would have made to the scenario to make it more fun?<br> <br> <span style="color:#BF0000">I had some of units walk into an ambush in the SE corner.

(1-10)<br> 8. It's difficult the first time round as you don't expect giant spiders. It also helps if you think before opening doors and keeping your forces together is an absolute must<br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> Very. It's more finding the leaders which is difficult<br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> Fairly interesting. I think Karrag could say a bit more when you enter his movement range<br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> Holding off white dwarves, dealing with steelclad spam by the purple, shadows (I HATE shadows with a passion now), giant spiders, Orange lich's forces. Not much really<br> (6) How fun do you think the scenario is? (1-10)<br> 6 The tactics and luck required for this scenario are huge which makes for interesting fun but the sheer size of the level and forces means it takes quite a while to move units (esp mages) and shadows may cause a few save-loads<br> (7) What, if any, are changes you would have made to the scenario to make it more fun?<br> Despite my hate of shadows, none really. Perhaps a few warning signs could help. As long as people have their auto save turned on they should be fine.<br> (8) Was there any event that caused you to lose the game and forced you to reload or restart the scenario?<br> -Rushing orange lich<br> -Dividing forces between brown and orange lich<br> -Giant spider killed white mage<br> -Death of great mage<br> -Attempting to hold ground against steelclad spam by purple masked dwarf</div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p349805" class="post has-profile bg2"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile349805"> <dt class="no-profile-rank no-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=114808&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" class="username">sabalzen</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=114808&sr=posts&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0">25</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> April 1st, 2009, 12:50 pm</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content349805"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=349805&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p349805">Re: Scenario Review: THoT 12 - The Underlevels</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&p=349805&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=349805&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p349805" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=114808&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" class="username">sabalzen</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2009-04-04T13:07:08+00:00">April 4th, 2009, 1:07 pm</time> </p> <div class="content">(1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on?<br> Easy 1.6<br> (2) How difficult did you find the scenario?

(1-10)<br> 7 - Difficult at times to keep all the characters alive while fighting the numerically superior enemy.<br> <br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> Clear.<br> <br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> Clear. However for the next scenario, which doesn't have it's own thread, I found the ending lacking. The story wraps up nicely for Aiglondur, but that's only half the story. We don't hear anything about what happens to the Hammer of Thursagan either in this scenario or the epilogue. While I understand that the specifics are probably intentionally left open ended, it would be nice to at least have a line or two saying Angarthing is going to study the hammer or something along those lines to basically tie up the loose ends introduced in the second scenario.<br> <br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> Overextending my forces. I'll say more about this in the following answers.<br> <br> (6) How fun do you think the scenario is? (1-10)<br> 8 - The long dungeon crawl is different from many Wesnoth scenarios and a little unexpected. The map is well designed, with plenty of areas for you to defend against the hordes of enemies.<br> <br> (7) What, if any, are changes you would have made to the scenario to make it more fun?<br> I would recommend adding the option to not break down the second set of gates immediately after stepping next to them. Perhaps someone would suggest that we should focus on the enemy at hand first. The reason for this is the answer to (8).<br> <br> (8) Was there any event that caused you to lose the game and forced you to reload or restart the scenario?<br> Basically a combination of two things: I sent Aiglondur down the passage from the spider cave, and I split up my forces going through the first gate and opened the second gate too early. This meant I didn't have enough troops to hold back the troops on the other side of the second gate, nor did I have enough troops to protect injured troops against the skirmishing undead. Meanwhile, the forces heading down from the spider cave were slowed down by a non-quick white mage and couldn't effectively press the attack. Aiglondur going down the spider cave is significant since this would have been less of a problem if he had been with the units at the first gate and had the opportunity to recruit more units there. I'm not sure if I actually had the gold for this though, since I may still have been in debt, or not had money for more than a few units.</div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p354373" class="post has-profile bg1"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile354373"> <dt class="no-profile-rank no-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=114808&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" class="username">sabalzen</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=114808&sr=posts&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0">25</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> April 1st, 2009, 12:50 pm</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content354373"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=354373&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p354373">Re: Scenario Review: THoT 12 - The Underlevels</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&p=354373&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=354373&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p354373" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=114808&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" class="username">sabalzen</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2009-04-28T12:11:27+00:00">April 28th, 2009, 12:11 pm</time> </p> <div class="content">OK, so I lied, I <em class="text-italics">did</em> restart the scenario, or at least the whole campaign. And seeing as this time I made it all the way to the end, I'll re-review:<br> <br> (1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on?<br> Easy 1.6<br> (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10)<br> 7<br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> The overall objective was clear enough, but I still feel that more clues as to what's going on would have made progress clearer and the whole experience more interesting.<br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> Fairly minimal for such a long scenario. The ending was OK, but as another pointed out, the fate of the Hammer was left unresolved.<br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> None, given enough patience. This time through, knowing I'd need them, I'd stockpiled loads of level 3s, and recalled the lot in the first chamber. 207 turns later, I took down the lich, with my gold reserves standing at -3510 <img class="smilies" src="./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title="Smile"><br> 264 kills, 5 losses. (How come Turuk had nearly a hundred <em class="text-italics">fewer</em> baddies to plough through when playing on Challenging?)<br> (6) How fun do you think the scenario is? (1-10)<br> 4. Still overly tedious (much less fun than the similarly huge cave scenarios in Northern Rebirth), and less fun than all the other scenarios in this campaign, which I did enjoy overall.<br> (7) What, if any, are changes you would have made to the scenario to make it more fun?<br> I'd break it into at least two separate scenarios, and provide more interest by adding sub-plots or side-quests.<br> (8) Was there any event that caused you to lose the game and forced you to reload or restart the scenario?<br> No, even the nightstalkers only took out non-essential units, fortunately.</div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p354393" class="post has-profile bg2"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile354393"> <dt class="has-profile-rank has-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=105610&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" class="avatar"><img class="avatar" src="./download/file.php?avatar=105610_1236467371.png" width="72" height="72" alt="User avatar" /></a> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=105610&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" style="color: #AA4444;" class="username-coloured">Turuk</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-rank">Sithslayer</dd> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=105610&sr=posts&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0">5283</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> February 28th, 2007, 8:58 pm</dd> <dd class="profile-contact"> <strong>Contact:</strong> <div class="dropdown-container dropdown-left"> <a href="#" class="dropdown-trigger" title="Contact Turuk"> <i class="icon fa-commenting-o fa-fw icon-lg" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Contact Turuk</span> </a> <div class="dropdown"> <div class="pointer"><div class="pointer-inner"></div></div> <div class="dropdown-contents contact-icons"> <div> <a href="http://turuk.wordpress.com/" title="Website" class="last-cell"> <span class="contact-icon phpbb_website-icon">Website</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content354393"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=354393&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p354393">Re: Scenario Review: THoT 12 - The Underlevels</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&p=354393&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=354393&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0#p354393" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=105610&sid=df3c4445214949e3d6cc69c450c3f0a0" style="color: #AA4444;" class="username-coloured">Turuk</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2009-04-28T13:29:06+00:00">April 28th, 2009, 1:29 pm</time> </p> <div class="content"><blockquote><div><cite>sabalzen wrote:</cite>None, given enough patience.
