Mod: Vaettiheim 2.2

[Sombre]

The difference you're seeing is between CBM Vaetti and vanilla Vaetti. That accounts for the price 'changes', anyway. If you go over to the CBM version you'll find the prices remained much the same as in our duel.

I can pump up the price of Spero and add a bit to the Sorcerer too. I was a bit unsure of their costs to be honest.

As for the groundbreaker - I want them to mostly be a siege unit that you can use as heavier infantry. I can give them a new pick weapon, but since pickaxes are two handed, I can't give them the regular one with the shield as well. I dropped their siegebonus somewhat. I'll change the axe for a one handed vaetti pick of some kind, maybe put the gcost up a touch.

The Forest Troll is actually my own graphic,.. BUT, it's the first graphic I ever did for Dom3. I've probably improved a bit since then. I can redo it, maybe this weekend.

I'll drop the Gygja price for the vanilla version, but not much lower. 300 maybe. In CBM Vaetti they remain 260. I suggest you go check out the CBM version - when available it's the version I pay most attention to balance for.

Attaching a preview image.

Again, a very minor update coming soonish.

UPDATE V 2.2

This is a relatively minor update in terms of gameplay, but changes a lot in the dm file itself so could produce some hilarious bugs.

-- All copystats replaced with actual stats

-- Many changes to ID numbers

-- Changed the role of the Wolf Lord to make him less of a call allies monkey

-- Replaced the werewolf spy with a simple and very cheap Vaetti scout

-- Exile Guard no longer cap only

-- Troll Druid gets +1 nature in a forest

-- Prettied up the flag and banner a bit

Hi. I love this nation, and I often use it in SP. I tried adding to them a Pretender God, the ***** Queen, but I do not get it right.

I add this lines:

#newmonster 2420
#name "***** Queen"

#copystats 401
#copyspr 401
#restrictedgod 74


#copystats 402
#copyspr 402
#restrictedgod 74
#end

But it seems not works. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

I think it is all the swear words you keep adding. :P

Why the double copystats? just remove that.

And I do not know if restrictedgod is an overwritable ability, you are probably better off just typing out all the stats again.

And one more thing "it doesn't work" is not a good error description, what doesn't work? I assume it doesn't show up in the pretender list of vaettiheim is that correct?

I do the double copystats because the ***** Queen is a shapeshifter creature, half crone half werewolf. And I said that it doesn't work because the ***** Queen doesn't appear as a selectable pretender, whatever I do.

I included the 'restrictedgod' line cause few nations have the ***** Queen as pretender, and I thought that it's necesary to add Vaettiheim to them.

PD: Sorry for my limited English, it's not my native language.

Yeah, but you are copystatting two monsters into one. That doesn't work. You need to make a monster *****queen firstform, copystat one of the *****queens first forms into that, and make a second monster *****qeen secondform, and copystat the second form into that.

Also, iirc the second form should have a lower monster number, and be declared before the first form for it to work. (but could also be the other way around, not sure).
