I feel ashamed for always ringing false alarm about being done with Age of Vampires and then always restarting my work on the project... it is like the boy who cried wolf...
But I think anyone who is a fellow moder shares this sickness of never being completely satisfied with the endresult, so for those of you who have planned reviewing Age of Vampires I hope I have your patience for the introduction of the new set of changes... to make sure I will not make you wait forever I have made a list of the intended changes and bind my self to the promis not to go further than that list and at the very least not to ask for more time beyond completion of the changes on this list...
-Data-Editing:
Less extreme advantages and disadvantages: the anti-building bonus and the prices for the Lord of Darkness will be lowered. Full Moon Fever Research will not result in dramatically fast training of castle-units anymore. And the loom returns to the Dracul Clan.
-Buildings:
new graphics for the Dock, Tower and one completely new building - The Stable, which will be available to the Dracul Clan without the full Tech Tree
-Units:
two new mythological units, the Samodiva and the Ghoul, the former is the deceivingly beautiful ghost of a drowned virgin, a somewhat less well known creature from the Slavic mythology compared with the vampire, the second is a well known low form of vampire that only feeds on corpses and will be a purely economical unit, helping villagers with collecting food.
-Spoken Language:
The human units available to the Dracul Clan and the Vrkolak will speak Romanian and Bulgarian respectively, Ghosts, Vampires, Werewolves, Ghoul and Samodiva will stick with scary sounds.
-Minor additional graphic changes:
I will try to replace the flaggs that signal a building is filled up with units by flying bats. I hope that I can restrict these to the Vampire-Clans (data-editing). I will try to make the grass-floor somewhat darker as to take away some light off the atmosphere in forest-maps.
I herewith promis not to make reviewers wait for changes that are not on this list,
Ivo
