Hi Niklas,
When it comes to age of warlords, anything is possible. Generally
speaking, it is finished, except for the polishing up of details, which I
didn't realize how much I needed to get done.
I am also open to suggestions and ideas from players, if they think there is
a way to make a map better, or if they want a different kind of battle
scenario. I tried to create those dual of destiny maps so that people could
set up their ownbattles cause it is hard to cover everything.
I think you are talking about transporter bombs. The orion syndicate uses
transporter bombs like torpedos. If an actual item was outside of the ship,
then I am not sure how that happened. Did the item get left over when a
ship was destroyed?
It sounds like you had a heck of a fight! Better luck next time.
As a side note, I always wanted to combine the two map packs cause starship
template was just something I used to help me test and create maps and duels
etc, and I thought others might be interested in it. But I guess it gets
played.

Hi Allan,
yes, to be more detailed would be very good. But keep it up, your work is
very fantastic man. It's great to see you are working on the user guides
already, so the map packs will get it in an update. Great, thank you for all
this especially for doing it without costs, i have to say, if it would cost
money, i would pay it for all the hard work you put into it. Just out of
curiousity, do you plan to add more maps and content to age of warlords or
is it finnished as it is now? It's very gigantic already.
Ah, and another thing, in the user guides, please explain how items in your
maps work if they work in another way as the general. I had in starship
templates a ship standing on a tile with an item but i don't know how to use
or what to do with it. If i moved the ship away from the tile, the item was
still there. But i don't know what it was.
Oh well, the AI was very angry about me. I placed a weapon onto a tile with
an enemy ship, i don't know the exact name of the weapon, but I think it
worked like a time bomb or such. However, at the enemies turn the ship with
my surprise on it explodes. I was soooooo sad about it, i had cryed if I
hadn't laughed. Hmmm, pitti for the enemy. But his refenge was bloddy
brutal. In his next turn, he shot down 5 of my shuttles and a cruiser. I had
a fleed of 9 ships, 3 cruisers and
6 shuttles. in the next turn the nightmare goes on, because this freec
destroyed another cruiser and my last shuttle. However, he won at the end,
but I fought like an heroe till dead, yeah.
best regards
Niklas
