It's a pretty obvious idea. So I googled, and read through the 4-5 threads that covered the subject of a LotR add-on. I know they all said "nope, never", but that was like 10 years ago so why not ask: did anyone ever end up making a LotR add-on for others (i.e. me) to use? :) 20160108 00:59:48< jimlun> (on the wesnoth forums) 20160108 01:00:04< celticminstrel> Not that I know of, and if they did, it wouldn't (shouldn't) be on the addon server. 20160108 01:00:38< jimlun> Yeah, I got that much. I didn't expect to find it there, which is why I thought I'd have better luck here ^^ 20160108 01:00:58< celticminstrel> I don't know of anything, sorry. 20160108 01:01:19< jimlun> thanks anyway. 20160108 01:01:32< jimlun> So, my fiancée keeps beating me. How do I learn this game quickly? :D 20160108 01:01:42< jimlun> is wiki the place to start? 20160108 01:01:53< celticminstrel> In multiplayer? 20160108 01:02:22< celticminstrel> There's a manual, if you like that sort of thing. 20160108 01:02:25< jimlun> Yeah. She's been playing it locally with her brother growing up. Now she made me play it, and I hate losing. 20160108 01:02:44< celticminstrel> There's also online help in the game itself. 20160108 01:03:16< celticminstrel> Maybe you can find advice here or on the forums. 20160108 01:03:23< jimlun> Mmm yeah. I got the basics of the game down, like the rules and how the different units behave. 20160108 01:03:43< jimlun> Looking more for strategic tips or gameplans. 20160108 01:04:00< jimlun> I'll look at the manual :) 20160108 01:04:22< celticminstrel> One thing that's important is paying attention to where and (if not neutral) when you attack. 20160108 01:04:25-!- ancestral [~ancestral@15.sub-70-197-235.myvzw.com] has joined #wesnoth 20160108 01:04:53< celticminstrel> (If both you and your opponent are neutral, when is irrelevant.) 20160108 01:05:33< jimlun> Yeah. That's good advice. I noticed I got stuck in fights in the wrong time of day, so I was aware of the problem. But my opponent is sneaky. 20160108 01:05:36< jimlun> :p 20160108 01:06:04< jimlun> by where, I suppose you mean the 20-70% terrain stuff. 20160108 01:06:08< celticminstrel> Yes. 20160108 01:06:33< jimlun> also, I've been trying to start learning the diff type of attacks (pierce, arcane etc) 20160108 01:06:48< celticminstrel> And what sorts of things are weak to each, right? 20160108 01:06:53< jimlun> exactly 20160108 01:06:53< celticminstrel> That's good to know too. 20160108 01:07:02< jimlun> It's a lot to learn though ^^ 20160108 01:07:19< celticminstrel> Like horses are weak to pierce, undead are weak to arcane and fire, skeletons to impact, etc. 20160108 01:07:36< celticminstrel> I don't actually know what's weak to blade. 20160108 01:07:53< jimlun> It's like Rock-Paper-Scissors took all the drugs at once. So many combinations to learn. 20160108 01:07:58< celticminstrel> Heh. 20160108 01:08:24< jimlun> iirc, the wolves don't like blades 20160108 01:08:38< jimlun> idk 20160108 01:08:46< jimlun> I've played what, 6 full games. 20160108 01:09:15< celticminstrel> You don't have to memorize it all though. The game gives you a lot of information when you go to consider an attack, and of course you can try multiple attackers before deciding which to use. 20160108 01:09:44< jimlun> Naturally. 20160108 01:10:21< jimlun> But it helps to have the units standing in the right place to begin with, which is why having the knowledge would be good. 20160108 01:10:37< jimlun> I'll learn by doing rather than trying to learn it all at once though :p 20160108 01:11:06< celticminstrel> Maybe trying a campaign would help. 20160108 01:11:24< celticminstrel> Maps for campaigns tend to be a lot less patchwork than multiplayer maps though. 20160108 01:11:32< jimlun> I did start playing campaign. The top one. It's pretty fun, but takes so much time. 20160108 01:11:38< celticminstrel> HTTT, right? 20160108 01:11:50< jimlun> sure, absolutely. (I have no idea :D) 20160108 01:11:55< celticminstrel> Konrad. 20160108 01:12:00< jimlun> It had many scenarios though, like 17 or 23. 20160108 01:12:05< jimlun> yeah, Konrad. 20160108 01:12:51< celticminstrel> HTTT: Heir To The Throne 20160108 01:13:17< jimlun> Ah,. 20160108 01:15:43< jimlun> A chess mod would be fun. (Essentially just making chess look like wesnoth). But I'll assume the hex tiles are impossible to change to squares. 20160108 01:15:54< celticminstrel> Yes. 20160108 01:16:33< jimlun> And doing the reverse is pointless too, (bringing the chess pieces to wesnoth universe), since there's too few different ones. 20160108 01:16:55< jimlun> Although I suppose maybe if you simply make a "Chess pieces" faction. Still seems pointless though. 20160108 01:16:59< celticminstrel> I wouldn't be surprised if someone did it anyway. 20160108 01:17:21< jimlun> couldn't find anything chess related on the add-on list just now 20160108 01:17:26< jimlun> lazily scrolled through it 20160108 01:17:45< celticminstrel> The 1.12 addon list, I assume. 20160108 01:18:26< celticminstrel> There's lists for 1.10, 1.8, 1.6, too. I dunno if it goes back any further than that. 20160108 01:18:42< jimlun> Hmm 20160108 01:18:56< jimlun> My game version is 1.10.7 20160108 01:19:00< celticminstrel> Oh. 20160108 01:19:08< celticminstrel> Then you'd be looking at the 1.10 list. 20160108 01:19:32< jimlun> I just typed in Wesnoth in the ubuntu software center and downloaded it ^^ 20160108 01:22:15< jimlun> If I get a newer version of the game, will there be more people on the official server? 20160108 01:22:28< celticminstrel> Uhh. 20160108 01:22:39< celticminstrel> I don't know. 20160108 01:22:42< jimlun> There's usually only 1 or 2 games running when I look there. 20160108 01:23:12-!- ancestral [~ancestral@15.sub-70-197-235.myvzw.com] has quit [Quit: i go nstuf kthxbai] 20160108 01:23:20< celticminstrel> Last I checked on the 1.12 official server (several months ago) my games list and user list were both overflowing. 20160108 01:23:50< jimlun> i.e. there's people there? 20160108 01:23:57< celticminstrel> I assume so. 20160108 01:24:02< celticminstrel> I don't go on much. 20160108 01:24:09< celticminstrel> I play more campaigns than multiplayer. 20160108 01:24:13< celticminstrel> When I play at all. 20160108 01:24:20< jimlun> 'kay 20160108 01:24:26< jimlun> I shall investigate 20160108 01:26:08< jimlun> Looks like I'll have to compile it, since my OS is relatively old.
