Ich bin durch das BtS Szenario auf den Geschmack gekommen und bin echt begeistert von diesem Mod.
Das einzige was mich stört, ist dass der Tech-Balken oben am Bildschirm, sowie Produktions- und Wachstumsbalken im Stadtmenü bei mir nicht angezeigt werden. Hab es auf dem PC meiner Freundin getestet, selbes Problem.
Hat jemand das selbe Problem oder weiß jemand wie man das beheben könnte?

Design: World Spells
Every civilization gets a world spell in "Shadow". This spell can only be used once per game and has far reaching effects. Some are available from the begining of the game and some have a tech prereq before they can be used. In all cases some AI logic has been written to get them to use the spell at an appropruate time.

We will need a little help balancing here. The effects are significant and are incrediably varied, so as you can understand balance is going to be an issue. As always remember that we balance by the Civ (are the Calabim equal to the Luchuirp) not by the feature (so we aren't attempting to make the Calabim world spell equal to the Luchuirp world spell).

Amurites- Arcane Lacuna: All the players Arcane units gain 1xp per upgraded mana node in the world, all mana nodes revert to raw mana.
Balseraphs- Revelry: Initiaties a Golden Age that lasts twice as long as normal.
Bannor- Rally: Creates a Demagog in every Bannor city and on every Bannor Town improvement, only usueable during a crusade
Calabim- River of Blood: All Calabim cites get +2 population, all non-Calabim cities get -2 population (to a minimum of 1 population)
Clan of Embers- For the Horde: 50% of the barbarian orc units convert to the Players control
Doviello- Wild Hunt: Creates a wolf unit for every combat unit the player controls, the wolfes strength is based on the matching combat units strength
Elohim- Sanctuary: Kicks all non-team units out of their borders and makes all non-team unable to enter the players lands for 30 turns
Grigori- Ardor: Resets the players Great People counter
Hippus- Warcry: Grants all combat units +1 strength, blitz, +1 movement and has a 5% chance per turn of wearing off
Illians- (won’t be added until “ice”)
Infernal- Hyborems Whisper: Allows Hyborem to take control of a city with the Ashen Veil religion
Khazad- Motherlode: Gives the player 10gp per mine they control
Kuriotates- Legends: Gives a huge culture boost to all the players cities and settlements
Lanun- Raging Seas: Acts as a Tsunami for the entire world, but it won't damage Lanun ships or improvements
Ljosalfar- March of the Trees: All forests in the players empire turn into Treants for 3 turns, when the Treants die they return to forests in the plot (if it can support a forest)
Luchuirp- Gifts of Nantosuelta: Create a Golden Hammer equipment in each of the players cities (Golden Hammers can be picked up by a unit to boost his strength, used to finish a building, or given to a citizen to create a great engineer specialist)
Malakim- Religious Fervor: Creates a priest of the players state religion in each of the players cities with that state religion, these priests start with +1 xp for every city the player has with that religion
Mercurians- Divine Retribution: Does damage to all Undead and Demonic units in the world
Sheaim- Worldbreak: Does damage to all units in cities, forest fires start around the world
Sidar- Into the Mist: All the players combat units become Hidden (aka: invisible until they attack or cast a spell)
Svartalfar- Veil of Night: All the players combat units gain Hidden Nationality

Design: Game Options
There are quite a few new game options in "Shadow", some were snuck into 0.25 but I'll list them all now because some have been modified and vanilla players may not be aware of the new options that got put into 0.25.

Barbarian World- The Barbarians start with a city for every player in the game (this is the Labrascum option renamed).
Wildlands- Double the normal rate of animals, in "Shadow" this has been rewritten so that it truely doubles (there was a smooth check that took place after our doubling that made our change insignificant). Also in the new version animals continue to be spawned much later if this option is selected.
Blessings of Amathaon- Doubles the amount of bonuses generated on the map.
Living World- Doubles the frequency of events.
Last Days- Doubles the rise and fall of the Armageddon Counter.
Hallowed Ground- Removes the Armageddon Counter from the game.
Compact Enforced- The Mercurians and the Infernal won't be spawned during the game.
No Lairs- Lairs won't be be automatically created on the map (though animals can still make lairs).
No Settlers- No players can create settler units.
End of Winter- The world starts frozen and slowly thaws to the normal terrain type.
No Unique Features- No Unique features are created on the map.
Remove Religion- Fellowship of Leaves- Removed the Fellowship of Leaves religion from the game.
Remove Religion- The Order- Removed the Order religion from the game.
Remove Religion- Octopus Overlords- Removed the Octopus Overlords religion from the game.
Remove Religion- Runes of Kilmorph- Removed the Runes of Kilmorph religion from the game.
Remove Religion- The Ashen Veil- Removed the Ashen Veil religion from the game.
Remove Religion- The Empyrean- Removed the Empyrean religion from the game.
Remove Religion- The Council of Esus- Removed the Council of Esus religion from the game.
AI No Building Requirements- With this option selected the AI no longer needs any building requirements for units. So they can build axemen without training yards and longbowmen without archery ranges. My goal eventually is to improve the AI enough so that this doesn't have much effect (and in "Shadow" the AI's ability to field upgraded units is MUCH better than in 0.25) but we put this in for testing and decided to keep it for players that wanted to try it out.

I have been playing a lot of games with various religions on or off. Especially on smaller maps 7 religions is an awful lot. Sometimes its nice to have a game with just the Order and the Ashen Veil, or the Empyrean and the Council of Esus. I also think that it will be helpful to scenario designers.

I've also been playing a lot of "End of Winter" games. We have been talking about a mechanic like this for a long time and we finally found a way to do it that isn't processor intensive on huge maps. I think you guys will enjoy it.

Blub.

End of Winter- The world starts frozen and slowly thaws to the normal terrain type.

Das ist wohl die coolste Einstellung überhaupt. Das verändert das Spiel total. Da macht dann nciht nur die Anfangsspielphase SPass beim Siedeln, sondern auch später

Die World Spells finde ich auf den ersten Blick ziemlich krass Aber auch sehr interessant. Ich hoffe aber, dass man diese auch ausschalten kann? Hab davon gar nichts in den neuen Optionen gelsen?

Der 16. kann kommen.

ich hoffe es hat sich nichts am termin geändert...

Eigentlich schwer vorstellbar, dass sie sich an einen Termin halten können, es sei denn, sie habe es schon fertig *g* Und wenn doch: Respekt, da sollen ja "richtige" Spieleprogrammiere ihre Probleme mit haben

Naja, die arbeiten an Shadow schon seit Mitte des Jahres. Die haben ja schon lange vor der Erscheinen von BtS ihr gesamtes Zeug nach BtS portieren und anpassen können, da sie ja auch das Age of Ice Szenario gemacht haben. Wo ja auch schon einige Mechanismen für aus FfH übernommen wurden. Mal davon abgesehen, dass die große Beta-Test Phase ja eigentlich erst am 16. startet.

Man muss ihnen allerdings wirklich zu gestehen, dass das schon sehr professionell läuft.

Kael hat es aber auch sehr viel leichter. Er muss sich nicht wie die Firaxis Programmierer mit verschiedenen versionen herumquälen, wo dann überall der Wurm drin ist.
Desweiteren hat er hunderte von Betatestern, da kann Firaxis natürlich nicht gegen anstinken.

Und das die Arbeitsweise professionelle Züge hat ist ja klar, Kael ist von Beruf Bughunter. Programmieren und fehlersuche scheint seine Lieblingsbeschäftigung zu sein

Nun sind die Svaltalfars angekommen http://forums.civfanatics.com/showth...64#post6247664

The winter court is more like their summer brothers than they would like to admit. Like the Ljosalfar they can build improvements on forest tiles, and that grants then the synergies with the Fellowship of Leaves should they opt to return to their former religion. They also gain the same double movement in forest tiles, which is more dangerous in the Svartalfars hands.

As for differences let’s start with Faeryl, she is an Arcane/Raider leader that starts with Shadow, Nature and Mind mana. They have a unique hunting lodge that boosts the strength of all of their recon units. Along with their increased movement in forests this makes them the games most effective civ for capturing animals. Hunter rush has never been more effective, and their assassins can pick apart stacks of enemies.

Veil of Night allows them to make all of their combat units Hidden Nationality, as you can imagine this doesn’t make the Svartalfar good neighbors. Add in Faeryl’s preference for the Council of Esus and its ability to not have the units bounced out of your borders when they declare war and you have a civ made for betrayal.

They are one of the only civs to start with Shadow mana (along with the Calabim) which grants access to the following spells:

Blur (rank 1, sorcery)- protects units in the casters stack from first strikes (sadly for the Ljosalfar archers)
Hide (rank 2, sorcery)- Makes the caster invisible until they attack or cast a spell
Shadowwalk (rank 3, sorcery)- grants units in the casters stack the ability to ignore terrain and building defense

Summon Mistform (rank 2, summoning)- hidden nationality summon
Summon Phantasm (rank 3, summoning)- invisible summon with fear

But my favorite aspect of the Svartalfar is their hero, Alazkan the Assassin. He is a powerful elven assassin with the mirror ability. Mirror allows Alazkan to create an illusionary version of himself, it is identical in every way. Any promotions Alazkan has earned are shared by his duplicate. Every assassin needs a powerful summon to send in to warm up enemy stacks or scout into dangerous areas.

The weakness of the Svartalfar is they have a hard time operating as a builder. To be successful they need to get out and start causing chaos, maximizing the use of their raider trait and keeping their neighbors down. This is largely because of their second weakness, poor defense. Where the Ljosalfar have archer bonuses and the amazing March of the Trees world spell the Svartalfar have few tricks for defending their lands. I expect them to be extremely powerful in the right hands, and a favorite of players that like sniping at and betraying their enemies, but some players may have to adapt their play style to keep from being crushed as them.

Die Sidar kommen! Man kann sich gar nicht entscheiden, was man alles neues testen will...aber ich glaube ich werde wohl mit den hier neu anfangen...

Zitat von Kael

The Svartalfar must get outside their borders to survive, must engage in battle (hopefully without declarations of war or diplomacy hits) and generally cause trouble. The Sidar are the opposite. Comfortable existing only within their borders they are self-sustaining ghosts who are the most dangerous when left alone for centuries to build and grow.

The key unit of the Sidar is the Shade. Any Sidar unit that is level 6 or higher can retire and become one. A Shade doesn't have any fighting ability, these are the faint souls that have withdrawn from direct contact with the world for an eternal life of their new profession. As such a Shades can become a Merchant, Bard, Sage or Engineer specialist in any of the Sidar cities.

But these specialists are more talented that those of other civilizations. All of their bards produce an additional culture, all of their engineers produce an additional hammer, all of their sages an additional research and their merchants an additional gold. This applies even if they are specialists created through non-Shade means.

There are also wonders in "Shadow" that effect specialist production. Sandalphon's favorite is the Great Library, it causes all your Sages to produce +1 research. Likewise the Theatre of Dreams causes all of your bards to produce +1 culture and the Guild of Hammers (the same wonder that founds the guild) causes all your engineers to produce +1 hammer. The doubling wonders (Sylviens Perfect Lyre, Bazaar of Mammon and the Crown of Akharien) are equally powerful in the Sidars hands because they can focus so many specialists in one city. Wonders should be a big part of any Sidar players strategy.

This isn’t to say that the Sidar are without their military strengths. They have an assassin unit called a Ghost which can cast the Hide spell. He can travel the world invisibly, only becoming visible when attacking. This is one of the few spells that can’t be cast after attacking, so an attack will at least leave the unit exposed for a turn before he disappears to the ether again.

The Sidar hero, Rathus Denmora, shares the ghosts ability to disappear but also starts with the Nether Blade equipment. The Nether Blade gives Rathus (or anyone who kills him and takes it) +2 Death damage and +80% against other heroes. Making Rathus the perfect unit to hunt for other players heroes.

Invisibility is also granted by the Sidar’s world spell, Into the Mist. With it all of the Sidar’s combat units become hidden. Making it easy to slip away from bad situations, or to move entire armies into place undetected. The Sidar may seem rare in their ancient cities, but you won’t really know how many there are, or where they are, until you declare war. Incidently in “Shadow” invisibile units still defend cities, so Giant Spiders are back to being great defenders and the Sidar’s world spell doesn’t make them sitting ducks.

That’s the Sidar. We wanted to make a civilization that required a different play strategy and offer a new civ to aggressive players (the Svartalfar) and to builders in “Shadow”. Like the Clan of Embers and the Khazad I don’t think they will be that successful if they are played traditionally, but with the right plan they are very effective. In my last game I focused entirely on adepts to try to rush as many units as possible to level 6 to become specialists. I was worried the strategy may be too effective, but it seemed as effective as military rushes (getting the Crown of Akharien in my sage city did ensure I would always be the research leader). I haven’t tried a “Cardith of the Sidar” game yet. We don’t balance based on alternate leaders but it sounds completely broken.

The major weakness of the Sidar is their inability to recover from the loss of one of their major cities. With the loss of a city they also loose the great people specialists that were created in that city by Shades, an undoing of their centuries of work. Also just because of their wonder focus Sidar players may find themselves spending a lot of time researching non-military techs that leaves their army lacking (this is what I did in my last game and I got crushed because of it), players will have to make sure to balance their incredible specialist economy with their more practical defensive needs.
