The Elder Scrolls:Oblivion Wars (Project name - may change later)

Description:
A map based on the game The Elder Scrolls:Oblivion. It's a map based on parts of Cyrodiil. The basis of the map is like the Ring Wars maps but with upgrades instead of building castles. The Spawns will happen twice a day for some units and once a day for others.

Map Comments:
For those who dont know the ring wars map. It is a mass unit map where all players get theire unit spawns and they upgrade by building castles. The more castles the more and better units you get. There will also be hero's on the map these will be very important and will not be revivable.

Excuse me, but there is no way a Warcraft map can get the same status as oblivion. You can try, and it can become a good map, but not as good as Oblivion. Thanks for reading.

I always liked Hannibal Traven. remember to give him a suicide spell.

 

[mxocosa]

Haha im not trying to make it as good as oblivion =P thats why im not making a hero map but a mass unit war map based on oblivion =) and im planning on adding the large black soulgem as a suicide item making filled large black soulgem thats needed to kill the king of worms (he should respawn unless hero with filled black soulgem is near)

Edit: btw plz change ur avatar liked ur old one better that girl creeps me out for some odd reason it seems like shes staring right into my eyes

 

[Rabarber]

What about buying horses, then? ( <3 ) And houses? *omg*

 

[mxocosa]

lol as I said its not a hero map >< so no u cant buy horses or hosues but some units may be able to mount/unmount

 

[mxocosa]

lol horses wont be that hard ill probably just make an ability based on the pick up archer and mount Hippogryph abilities

 

[Blackveiled]

you can have it single player then it will be done great

 

[rtatpi]

Hey this sounds really cool I love the Elder Scrolls series.

This is really exciting, I'd love to see how an Elder Scrolls game with multiple players will play out seeing as the Elder Scrolls games are solitary "you in a giant world" games.

Good luck hope this turns into a sweet map

 

[mxocosa]

hehe the singleplayer part is why elder scrolls games are so great I mean imagen how it would be if any of the other characters (NPC) ran around screaming LOL LOL LOL LOL PWNED ROFLMAO I 4M D4 1337 and so on if they made a online elder scrolls it would just be messed up by non fans and 12 year olds.

Now back to my map ^^ Just in case anyone havent realy read through my first post its not a hero map and its for several players there will be heros but theire more there to support normal units im going for a mass unit map not a Open RPG or something like that. Ill be updating my first post with new info whenever theres anything worth reporting at the moment the whole hiding thing is put on hold unless someone comes with a solution or Im done with the terrain of the map (hate running around in oblivion looking at terrain and I hate those damn mountains for being so high)

thx for all replys and suggestions/oppinions ^^

 

[mxocosa]

Ok the terraining is coming along nicely finished the The West Weald and the Red Ring Road. Also built Bravil. I would realy love to hear some ideas about which characters should be made heros and especialy which abilities they should have. I would also like to hear oppinions about which items I should include which items should certain hero's start with and which items should be found on the map and where.

 

[Ophidian]

You can make Jauffre a hero, like a blademaster type skillset or something. Lucien (Lachance?) would be a cool hero too. Some random people from mages and fighters guild. Azzan is the only name that comes to mind right now.

 

[mxocosa]

Jauffre will ofcourse be included. Lucien will probably also be in the game but im thinking about just making him a unit with some abilities and make it so he joins whatever team gets to him first(would like to hear oppinions on this). While Azzan whos the leader of the fighters guild in anvil wont be included simply because Anvil, Leyawiin and Kvatch wont be included due to map size. But which model should I use for Jauffre and Lucien Im totaly lost there especial with Jauffre considering he's kinda a skinny old man Lucien I could use the Acolyte Model. While talking about models does anyone got a suggestion which model I should use for gladiators I was thinking the militia model first but I think that one is more suited for the town guards of the diffrent towns.

 

[Rabarber]

How about that Lucien appears when someone kills a villager?

Add:
Baurus,
Martin Septim,
(Uriel Septim?)
Sanguine,
Lord Drad and twenty-five ogres,
Amusei,
(Amuday? )
The Lucky Old Lady
I came up with these now... many more to come

 

[mxocosa]

Hmmm I like that idea but it wouldnt realy be fair considering most good team starts out within cities *ponder ponder* Im gonna read up on that nightmother ritual ^^

 

[Rabarber]

How about adding a guy with a torch near the Ni.. i mean the Lucky Old Lady, and when he dies, Lucien appears, screaming the brains out of everyone?

 

[mxocosa]

Baurus will probably be included depends on how many evil heros I can come up with
Martin Septim will be included, planning on a temple of the one event where he will turn into a dragon and fight mehrunes dagon
(Uriel Septim?) Nah he's dead when my game starts out hehe
Sanguine, (who was this reminder plz)
Lord Drad and twenty-five ogres, this was the guy who had oger slaves and u could get a daedra mission to free his ogres right? if so I sooo wish I had room for that part of the map on my map damn world editor for not going larger than 256x256
Amusei,again remind me
(Amuday? ) remind me lol
The Lucky Old Lady and uhm no but good suggestion been thinking about her but nah ill add it as a structure that gives an aura

 

[mxocosa]

again that would give lucius to bravil every time so nah lol sry for being hard but meh I want him to be atainable by even the evil team

 

[Rabarber]

Amusei could be trapped in a dungeon, and as a Oblivion joke, Amuday could be his cellmate You know, the prison keeper that guards Amusei? Conversation;
"Amusei is off limits."
"What about 20 gold?"
"Amusei? i thought you meant Amuday! Go on."

Sanguine is the daedra party god. (heh) Remember the password to the Dark Brotherhood hideout?
"What is the colour of night?"
"Sanguine, my brother!"

 

[mxocosa]

ok now I rememeber Amusei but whos Amuday
ok now I remember *bonk self* wont have room for any dungeons but I may do something like that later on *note to self*

 

[Rabarber]

Amuday is a character from a jailor's mind He came up with a name.
