Thread: The Warhammer Campaign

  1. #1

    Default The Warhammer Campaign

    Well, I love Warhammer and i I know a lot. That's why I want to open this topic.

    Known that I'll tell you what is this topic about. Well, since the mod team is working in the units I would like to settle down what the campaign is gonna be. The landscape, the provinces, general features, names to be used for generals, new buildings... etc. By the way, the things we talk about here should be just a guide for the campaign as the last yes is from Bwian and the team. Lets start...

    Good topic. lists containing character name for all the factions would be especially useful. if they could be written using this format, it would be almost perfect:

    {Wind_Breaker}Wind Breaker
    {Axebitten}Axebitten
    {Rattlebone}Rattlebone
    {Big_Axe}Big Axe
    {Half_Ear}Half Ear
    {Four_Fingers}Four Fingers

    (those are names from order vs.chaos )


    Use of that intro is a definite no-go. Dont get me wrong. It's contains nice graphics from many good warhammer games, and it's nicely edited, but it is comprised solely of copyrighted material. So unless we can get the permission from the respectable companies that own the rights to them (unlikely) the intro can't be used. instead the intro will have to be made up of in-game graphics.

    Just a personal preference: I would like to see a few more provinces.
    It gives you a bit more to fight over, it makes it harder to wipe out a faction, and it gives each campaign a bit more longevity.
    Or isn´t this the map that will be used in the actual campaign?

    Two things.

    -I will post names and surnames not names with surnames. If you want I can put them together so that they are real imperial counts fron Karl Franz's time. Will that be of help?

    -About the video, we arent making money out of it so I't won't be dangerous to do it. And having this mod doesn't change the amount of people who buy Mark of Chaos. I have the game and also I would like to help and play this mod. I wouldn't say it's a problem.

    Totally true, this is a first map. I supose the actual campaign will have more provinces. But I have read or have been told that the map will have this look:

    I have another question, I guess it fits with this thread.

    How will you guys handle all the cities/castles ?

    What I mean is will you make the buildings different from the normal ones on the battlemap? Because it looks very strange when you lay siege to for example a dwarven settlement and it looks like a normal MTW2 city, with the walls and buildings looking medieval instead of a big mountain or whatever the city of the defending race looks like.

    {Walach}Walach Master of the Bloody Knights
    {Neferata}Neferata vampire QUEEN, lets see how we can fit this with M2TW
    {Vorag}Vorag King of the necrofags
    {Heinrich_Kemmler}Heinrich Kemmler Lord fo the necromancers


    Caleb and the other imperial names and surnames fit with the vampire counts and could perfectly be used.

    Default Re: The Warhammer Campaign

    Right now, until the Modding Pixies crack properly the settlement formats, we are stuck with the stock M2TW buildings for battlemap towns and cities.

    If we have to have it this way, then we have to have it this way. If not...then we will have the option of changing the sets for each of the main cultures. These will be applied across the races in a 'best fit' approach. Not ideal...but we will have to work with what we can change.

    Map wise, we have a map already part done. The provinces are roughly as follows:



    The only thing we were thinking of changing was to add a land bridge at the top right corner, so Chaos lands had a natural route south into the Empire lands without relying on the AI to figure out it needed a boat to do it with!

    I'm afraid yes, it IS a problem. The video and the music is not to be spread for free around the internet, just like you can't upload a real movie, or a musical album, for example. You've got some talent on editing movies, but I'd recommend, for this mod, and your sake, that you do an ingame intro movie. That way, you won't risk anything.

    "No one said it was gonna be easy! If it was, everyone would do it..that's who you know who really wants it."

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Tito, to make a mod is a lot of work. You can't expect minor factions to be in the game in any respect (unless you want to make them )

    I'm not representing Bwain or his team, but I wouldn't think they'll be worrying about factions like tilea or estalia...

    I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that the general idea is to make new appearances for units, or not use them at all = no mooric or italian placeholders for Tilea or araby.

    Tito ... no to Tilea, Araby etc.
    I would like to add Kislev later on, purely on the strength of hteir Winged Hussar type unit, which would look good...but, as Myrddraal correctly pointed out, there would be a whole lot more work to do them, and we will not be doing them for the mods first release.

    If you want us to choose between Orcs or Araby.... Skaven or Tilea .... or Dwarves and Kislev... which way do you think we would go

    Some minor factions are planned to be added later if there are still people willing to do the work... but we have stated alsewherethe included main factions, and that will not be changing.

    Good map, but:

    - too many provinces in Norska is making region too important, fighting for it prolonged, and gives too much of economic benefits (more provs than in Bretonia?) My suggestion is to cut Norska to 3-4 provinces, unless you plan to add Norse faction in the future.

    - same goes to chaos wastes - well, so many settlements in desolate tundra is strange for me, I would suggest to make only 4-5 settlements on southern part of the wastes as centres of regional tribal groups. I would also suggest to add four powerful/developed cities at the north/centre of the map, representing Eye of the Chaos, and maybe four cities dedicated to each chaos gods(rebelled at start?).
