Good job on your third installment.

Comparing to Starcraft as a common point of reference is fine, but most of the comparisons are pretty general, and as a warning to new players, thinking traps are spidermines or shrapmetal is psi-storm is a quick way to get your ass beat. =)

There are 3 traps per race in Strifeshadow. The pressure activated traps can be detected by workers and are always detected after their first activation. They hit an area and can do damage, paralyze, or teleport units. Other traps can slow units (Mineret), hide units (ambush cellar), spy (plant-eye) and slow or reroute units (BoneSpur).

The ambush cellar isn't used too often lately, but it'd been used in the alpha to set up situations where you can surround the enemy. 1.75x damage for rear hitting bonus makes this trap worth it. Anyway, to compare the traps to a spider mine does simplify the explanation, but maybe a little too much.

Shrapmetal simply does not kill units with one casting. You can stack Shrapmetals for incremental increases in damage (not double or triple, just % increases), but shrapmetal rarely kills anything in less than 3 castings. Shrapmetal can be pretty hard to use at times, but it's most effective with the Dame Agony spell or Pain Minerets. It's also more effective against ranged or air units because they tend to stop moving and can be hit without hitting your own troops. It's there to soften the enemy up and weaken groups of units so they are easier to run over. (which makes it easier to level up units during the battle)

Bone Juggernauts also can level up, and have a greater "non-targeting" radius around them than people might be used to from SC or other games. They can't attack anything next to them or even close to them.

By the time the game is released, or during the late beta, experience will be gained from various things like, killing units and buildings, giving and taking damage, and level will be indicated visually more than it is now (just a name and HP change visible when selecting unit now).

Anyway, it was another well done report. I just wanted to clarify some of the general comparisons, as they might be helpful, but also could be somewhat misleading to someone who hasn't played.

Good work,
-YRM-

Hehe thanks for clarifying YRM. As I said I only played the game 3 times and haven't even read the facts on the Ethermoon site. I think I'll do that some time ;)

StrifeEdit... you can look at any unit's stats and it's weapon or spell stats in StrifeEdit.

I should also mention the Dire Changling.

This is the best anti infantry unit in the game... It can move in the form of a Spectral Archer (exact mimic) which is a unit you'd generally want to attack with melee or strike troops if the option is available. When the Dire Changeling transforms into the nightmarish creature, it's immobile, but does MASSIVE damage at a range shorter than other ranged troops. Archers can kill it without taking return fire, but melee units are killed in around 3 hits. The Changlings don't do any splash damage though.

It's good to have a few Changlings near the front lines to quickly cut down the enemy melee units which may be engaging your Slashers. Slashers and Changlelings together are very tough in the early game, but vulnerable to air units.

Incorrect Info!! Incorrect Info!!

Cannon towers from warcraft II can only attack ground. Guard towers (with arrows) can attack both air and ground. If you have to make comparisons, make them right.

Sorry, I'm just a stickler for that kind of thing.
#19 SCV~007[89137]
t3o957p50.telia.com
I didn't state that cannon towers could attack air. I said that gremlin turrets are like cannon towers and can shoot at both air and ground.

Yep, YRM is da man for StrifeShadow =)

This report was very good. From a quick skim, I'd give it an 8-9 ( taking into account your ever-present good writing ). I'll take another, more detailed look at it now.

spider-mtc-tg061.proxy.aol.com
Very good job on the report. I liked it even though I read it using 800x600. But I mainly want to ask you a question. What are the minimum requirements for Strifeshadow? I have an old comp, and if beta testing positions come back up again, I want to know if my computer can even run it before applying.... Thanks.
#28 angel[89172]
THE-BEAST.MIT.EDU
minimum requirements are prolly going to be something around 300 MHz with 64 MB ram...I don't believe a 3D card is required but it sure would help...memory is probably the limiting factor here...with 128 MB you would be fine...also AGP cards seem to run it faster than PCI graphics cards...

hope that helps...maybe if you post ur system specs in the ethermoon forum over at ethermoon.com they could be more specific...

#29 SCV~007[89175]
t2o57p45.telia.com
I have a PII 350 MHz with 128MB RAM and a Voodoo 2 3d card. It lags like hell once it gets to late game when lots of units are moving, like when I watched this replay.

Sorry Iggy. Not in the mood.

No real probs on the pics, BTW, just some were way too far "zoomed out" such that units were undetectable. I know that's not really your fault but o well . . . maybe I'm just used to SC =)

Great job! I have been avoiding StrifeShadow reports because I don't know how to play, and to me that makes the reports boring...but I figured what the hell, I'll read SCV~007's. And guess what? It was awesome! Thanks for writing such an informative and entertaining report! :D
