1.12b Test2 - Hopefully Sat.

#1 Post by DarnYak »

Not done yet, but should be by Friday barring no unforeseen issues.

Unlikely I'll need to have a Test3, so may have a weekend final release.

A weekend release?

THAT would rock. A lot. Ever since you guys played Test1, my little posse of friends and I have been excited for a new version of EotA to play.

Now, for a question one of them has regarding the Fel Orcs: Are they fully fleshed out with heroes (Or at least as much as the Undead are?), or do they only have the Tyrant?

Only one hero. I did it this way because it will allow additional heroes to be added over time, rather then a giagantic version that takes a year for me to come up with enough spell ideas for like what happened with UD.

On top of that, orcs are an experiement of sorts with their non standard spawn towers.

Are we talking about a new faction? I thought the Tyrant was going to be added one of the current factions.

I would have thought viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1004 would have tipped you off by now

Tyrant is a hero for his own faction, the Pit Lords. Every spawn, mercenary creep, and hero is a Pit Lord model of a different skin.

My favorite are the flying yellow Pit Lords. Maybe that's just because I like yellow.

Ok, but Yak said that he was going to only do one hero, not a whole group? Thats going to be hellish hard to play with?? Unless I'm missing something here, again.
Which, sadly, I think I am. :) :wink:

Nope, maybe you should add a few to your posts, eh?

Don't worry, be happy now, Jamn! :D

Not that that'll stop the guy. Just gonna have to 1v1 him a few times, I guess, so he can get his Orcs out of the way and go back to his Mystic Swashbuckler. Thanks for the quick response.

Moving to Saturday, I probably won't have any time to work on it tomorrow (today?) like I had planned to get the graphics for Tyrant finished.
