Hello Piotr, in the Tarmellion/Ceran code, this is fixed already. If there is an 'overwhelming' attack force, the rear isn't protected anymore. I'll post the...
Hi, I'm setting up a conquest game using the standard conquest rules. Turns will run twice a week, sundays and thursdays. Because it is a conquest game, no new...
Hi I'm going through a few test runs using the wyreth version and checking out events using atedit. Now I've run a few test battles and tried to give one side...
... I'm not certain about RINGs, but monsters do not make use of any items in their possession during combat. The relevent code is in army.cpp - if a soldier...
Hi sound good. It would be great if you could post some of the relevent code if you could. I like the sounds of the quest items. cheers Pete ... great ... ...
... Hi Pete, I have no idea if you are new to coding, or an expert, so to be safe I'll try and make this simple. If some of what I say is way too basic, then...
Hi Thanks for that I've not read to all yet I'll wait till I get to work tomorrow :) Nothing can ever be to simple ;) cheers Pete ... relevent ... safe ... ...
Hi Bradley Just finished reading the post. During my lunch of course, I wouldn't be doing my own coding at work oh no :) Most excellent. It really opened up...
Hi, I just had a look through the code for teaching in response to seeing some 'strange' goings on in a game. What I noticed was this: A leader with 30 days...
Hi With the exception of a taught mage studying from 60 to 120 days outside a tower, this quirk offers little real advantage to the average unit. I dont think...
... The biggest advantage it offers is not the 60-120 day mark, but the 0-60 day mark. It can be used in many situations - such as magic at the start,...
I believe this is yet another case where the experienced player has an advantage over the newbie because he knows it doesn't work logically. I think this flaw...

And why 10 men anyway? Some teachers are better at teaching than others, some managing to teach classes of 30 people, or even lecture theatres of 1,000. And...
... Teachers can teach 1000 people. They just only give them 0.01 bonus months. And one-on-ten gets a big benefit. You could always introduce a new skill...
Hi I finally dug out my old pagemaker5 conversion of the atlantis rules and converted them to pdf format. I've uploaded it to the files section (the players...
... Actually, if you spend a little time digging through the doc production stuff in the code, and convert it to DocBook format, it could then be distilled to...
Hi, Reading through the messages from the start of the year got me interested in playing with hexside terrain (such as rivers, cliffs etc.). Since I couldn't...
... Hi Georg, No, I haven't attempted to do that - the only changes to spoils dropping in Gruehelm is a patch to stop monsters dropping magic/quest/dragon...
Hi Pete, one year ago or something like that I converted the Atlantis rule book in LaTeX format, I think it has been stored in the old Wyreth yahoogroup file...
We at atlantis_talk are developing python scripts to work as RFAs (RObotic Faction Assistance) - scripts that help automate part or all of running a faction...
... all of ... One thing that concerns me is that these scripts use a unit's name to categorise it into classes. This is probably always the easiest way for...
One option would be to use meta tags in a permanent comment. Eg unit 9999 ;Unit (9999), avoiding, revealing faction, holding, receiving no aid, ; 169 silver...
I can see the difficulty - with flags it doesn't matter so much because most of the flags can be seen *anyway*. Like wise if a small unit is on guard in a...
As an Atlantis player may I put in a request for the next version. Can we lease get a *report* from dead units... not just a mention in the battle section.......
... The other way to do things is for the script to keep an internal record of unit numbers and associate them with unit types. That way, if your comments get...
... We're trying to avoid creating any new filetypes !! and failing miserably. We already create a 'SuperReport' to preserve map data (in Atlantis report...
