Quenching

The Final Forge period has concluded for the Conquer Man Map. All objections have had their time. The Foundry and I hereby brand this map with the Foundry Brand. Let it be known that this map is now ready for live play (barring any Lack vetoes).

Conquer Club, enjoy!

I missed the quench last night because of the sparkles.

I will post the update tonight. Is there anything else?

Again thanks for the input. I think the animations are just what the map needed.

WM

Sorry, I was just trying to help out.

Looks good.

I am joking Night. Just a little sarcasm. Don't worry about it. Thanks for the advice.

I'd hate to meddle with a map after it's quenched, so I'll just post this as a final remark/suggestion.

There is nothing illegal about calling the ghosts ghosts. Copyright only protects the actual artwork, not the idea. So Namco does not have a monopoly on the concept of a round man being chased by ghosts. And "ghost" cannot be a trademark because it is an everyday noun being used in its everyday meaning.

If you want them to be aliens because you like it better, that's fine. But if you want ghosts it wouldn't be illegal and I'd be happy to switch the artwork & xml anytime.

Coleman · Post by **Coleman** » Wed Dec 12, 2007 1:01 pm

I like aliens better. I think it suits us more.

WidowMakers might disagree so I guess I should wait for him.

Conquer Man is well slow with all your XML Coleman!!! (Well with BOB!!)

Also - I'm not sure it's a very good 2 player game... 15 armies first turn!!!

PS - here's a tip - don't use extended Text Map on this map...

Perhaps this will be the new Battle Royale map?

Nice.

I thought the neutrals were going to be 1 for Aliens and 3 for Diamonds... seeing as they are -1 and +1 respectively on their own. As it currently stands, the diamonds are just way too easy to capture.

You are correct. I don't know how I missed that. Maybe it was the other 12,000 line s of code.

Anyway here is the updated XML.

Thanks again
