Hmm... i have a map request for anybody who would like to take it up.

Ok, so here it is, a map with a setup similar to norse homeland. (Doesnt matter what races are used)
this map you cannot win by impressivness(Enemys town's impressivness is out of this world.) This map is souly focused on war. The enemy is very stratigic, and has no mercy. Their defences are very strong so it is only for the most experienced of players. They also should have a creature. (Something that looks menecing and vicious) With a veriety of silver scrolls (quests) The player should also start out with maybe 50 troops (melee) and a storehouse full of food.

If anybody wants to take this request up or just has a comment...reply.
Thx DPsoul
P.S. ++++reputation for anybody who could take this up. :D


(If this request is too much like Skelape's Norse isles let me know.) *I didnt get a chance to try*
 
I have already made a landscape that looks very Norse. I just need to script it now. I was planning on it being a sandbox, but i suppose it could be easily edited to be a skirmish. However it may take a long time, since i'm working on the Hun mod and an Aztec map. When they are done, i'll start work on this one, but a map takes a LONG time to be good. What kind of challenges do you want? I'm strapped for ideas  :laugh:
 
Challenges, eh?
Hmmm, ATM i really dont mind what the challenges would be... im also not sure.
I just do silver scrolls for tribute not for enjoyment. :suspect
I'll get back to you in a few hours once i come up with some (enjoyable ones) :)
I WOULD do this myself but im still figurin out skinning.


TYVM,DPsoul
P.S. If you need any more ideas for the map let me know. :upside
 
there should be a map which is toatlly war, eg you have a town centre and have to survive 1000 soldiers every 10 minutes. it wouldnt be hard to make, and would be quite fun.
 
Does anybody have any silver scroll quest ideas im stumped. :angry
Post them here
 
ideas for quests:

drown them! (get a bunch of viligers and throw them into the watter as far out as you can, as fast as you can. at least 20 withen the specified time period)

Boulder Roll (roll ten boulders down into a small vilage and crush as many buildings as you can ( at least 12)

kill inocents! (use a platoon of 10 soldiers to kill 25 inocent people in less than a minute) (I'm not sure if it's possible...)

burn the city! (throw fireballs into a small city untill all the buildings and people have been burned. must take less than 2 minutes.)

... want more?
 
I like the boulder rolling one, that is possible. Also i like the fire one  :p
Any more Norse-like challenges would be good though  :)

actually make that 10,000. lol.
 
:happytears: lol geez zypher you must get soo frustrated or angry or something.. I mean.. look at the quest things you told us about haha.. burning and drowning and killing!  :shocked

haha, I gota admit.. They are good though lol  :laugh2
 
haha, violence is the only way to enjoy one's self.... as well as to help with population control!

allright, you want some more norse - like ones?

Where's My Ale!? (compleete the quest by finding this poor norse man's keg of ale... probably hide it in a rock alclove olf some sort...)

ACT LIKE VIKINGS MEN!!! (bring a small norse platoon down to the coast of the land, where some boats will be waiting... take them onto the boats, and wreak havok among some villages on small islands near the coast.)(REQUIRE"S DAXTER"S BOAT THING!!!!!)

well, that's all I've got for now...

oh, guys, I recently gained acess to my map making computer.... well, I'll post some screens of the land I'm working on...
 
ooh!
ooh!
idea!

have two warlike walled norse cities with archers, siege weapons... the works.
if you complete all the quests on the island the two towns start to attack each other...
giving you the chance to have a coffee break as they massacre each other. :coffee
but unless you do that they will attack your city with all the force that they have at their side.
 
oh, yes, that's a good idea!

the quest would have to be something about dooing something to make them angry at eachother... perhapse you bring your creature into one town, steal that king's wife, then bring her to the other town so one king blames it on the other?  :laugh:

 
Once my exams are over, i will seriously develop this, you have my word :p
It would be like 2 small warring Norse kingdoms each with their own monarchy
kill their king and you take their kingdom or something
ooh or they could own territories, like little island outposts that each kingdom would battle over, and the king would have subjects and stuff. Oh this is gonna be great :p

DUDE! this is what black and white is meant to be all about, man! :woot
the kingdoms thing sounds like the best thing since sliced bread (ok maybe not) and im surprised lionhead didnt use that idea in the game. why are there NO kings in the game
anyway, what would you use for the kings? theres a skin called s_norsefell.bwm which looks like a king, and  s_norsesigved.bwm. maybe you could script it so that when the king is in town all the armies in the area are really strong - or maybe thats too much. it would be better for there to be a physical king, rather than one that just says stuff every five minutes.
man, im so exited!!! this "kingdoms" thing makes me more excited than OGAM or multiplayer. and its simple!
 
Yeah, thats a great idea; like elite bodyguard platoons of about 15 men each (ofcourse, i know you like huge armies so there will be platoons of <200 :P) It could be partially cutscene, but mostly fighting/building so every time a kingdom takes an island for example, it would show that capture and display a message like "Kingdom of Grimhael has taken Djag Island" then it would show the opinion of the opposing king. I can put actual voices into the game because i have realised i can just record speech into a music file (.ogg) and then just play that file, instead of playing a string from the main speech file. So the king could get really angry and send some elites to retake that island. Then if you upset one kingdom, they both team on you and you have to fend both of em off. Its gonna be hard, but i have spent ages making a challenge on one of my other maps and its really professional with custom voices. Anyway what do ya think? (I think Sigved and Fell would work, as they are the only regal looking models that are Norse. I suppose Fenrick could work better than Sigved however, because Sigved isnt really a realistic Norseman.)

EDIT: I wanted to use the long boat model to implement ships so the Norse can capture islands, and the King can escape. However, i'm not sure if that okay with Daxter. You never know, there may even be naval battles  :blush If there were ships, there would be shipbuilder platoons that would move to the coast with some resources, build a ship, sail to an island, leave the ship, take the island and then sail back. However i may make them disassemble the ship when they reach the island because there would be a mass of ships on the coast  :happytears:
 
another idea. when you need help, complete a one off challenge. it will create a 100 strong ghost army just like in the norse isle in the game, but itll only last for a short period of time before they dissapear.
