This map should test your strategic prowess with it's AI, so is only for the most
experienced warmongers.

FEATURES
=======

- Fully working epics (courtesy of Kays and the team :p )

- Pretty advanced platoon and siege AI to test your BW2 skill

- Two never seen before challenges; one where you have to find 5 statues around the land
and click on them in the right order to retrieve tribute, and a creature fighting coliseum
where the creature you are assigned must battle 5 other creatures (being healed 50% each
win). If you are victorious, tribute is given!
 
looks pretty cool!

kinda simple with the geography, but very cool none the less.
 
A NEW MAP!  :happytears:  FINALLY! Can't wait to download it!  :yourock:
 
Admittedly the picture doesnt't make it look very good, but the actual landscape when you look at it ingame is quite good :)
Enjoy.
 
Hey Skel, lovely map. I havent seen a custom map myself by another person for a long long time and seeing this made me smile.  :)

I got a little hooked on that statue quest too tbh, I had a hard time finding them all.  :p

The siren epic did not seem to fire off at all and idk about the others but really thats the only thing I had issues with.

Overall 92% rating on a job well done.  :)
 
im at school, but still - i cant wait to get home and download it!
finally - a map with more than 20 soldiers!!!
 
i think its good that theres a map that features the norse, cos in the game theres only one and theres only three custom maps (that ive tried) that let you fight them. good on ya, skelape!!
 
Thanks everyone  :)  :)
Sorry about the epic  :blush  I hope it didnt affect the quality of play. Maybe i'll release a second version in time with new and improved scripts!

1. Has anyone completed it yet? It is rather hard i found..
2. Also did the AI of the soldiers and the siege machines work properly? Ocassionally (and only very occasionally) they would just stand in the city they were recruited in, doing nothing. Must be a problem with the game i suppose.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated; glad you guys like it  :)
 
Is it me or is it just that I have no creature in my village?
 
Dude, you a mod god.

Nah there isn't supposed to be a creature. I actually think they are quite annoying, and it would make it quite unfair on the enemy. Besides, the creature would get pasted by the lvl 10 platoons  :D
 
I never liked the fact that there are creatures in Black & White anyway...

i thinks so too. creatures are stupid, they are a stupid idea, and i dont know why people like them. a god would never have a giant monkey doing deeds for it. its too stupid and far fetched.

*Loads Gun*
You guys got life insurance?
 
The concept of creatures is good and i liked BW1 creatures alot. The main reason i didn't put a creature in this map was they are practically mindless in custom maps and just stand there and dance... Also i'd need to actually script the intelligence for the enemy creature. I thought it best to just leave it out  :laugh:
 
Well my creature rarely eats by its own, even if I taught it. My Black & White 2 is patched to 1.2 already so there couldn't be more problems. The ownly good thing my creature does, is fight for me and help get resources. Okay guys stay in the topic, discuss this SOMEWHERE ELSE.
