Hi all, I had a quite go at one of the fan-created scenarios in Beyond the Sword recently (the fantasy-themed icy one) and it struck in many ways as a fairly ...
The problem with modding the Civ games is, no matter how many graphics alterations or advancement alterations you make, it still plays like Civ: you start with...
... That part's among the easiest to change. Even unmodded Civ 4 has one city challenge as a default game mode, and the tech tree can be adjusted or disabled...
... Depends on how you define 'interactive stories' - technically every video or computer game ever made can be considered an interactive story. ;-) But it...
Hi I have a rule of playing a few hours of KoDP when I visit my folks for the weekend every six months or so. Amazing a 1999 game and it's still feels fresh to...
Chris ... The manual says Resurrection One of Chalana Arroy's amazing powers is the ability to restore the recently dead to life. The circumstances of death or...
... As I recall it, you don't get asked something like "Arkat was killed in the fighting, do you want to try to Resurrect him?" If you want to resurrect...
I think I once used it on one of my own leaders, but I generally forget to try it. Will have to give it a whirl! However once you have that blessing there is...
I've played KoDP on and off for years now, but lately I've begun to get into some of the knitty gritty aspects of the game. Now we all know that each noble...
... Ah yes, http://a-sharp.com/kodp/osl.html ... I did buy a couple of duck paintings via David Dunham at a GloranthaCon, and he was kind enough to later send...
ulyssez ... I'm pretty sure this would just be skill -- i.e. why you pay attention to who you put on the Ring. ... This sounds about right (from memory). ... ...
Just speaking of other clan chiefs, one trait that I think I've only seen mentioned once, but which highly amused me, was something like: "known for his...
Okay, let me add two more traits to the "fairly certain" list: "Told you so!": Spouts one of those "told you blahblah" comments disturbingly often. Frequently...
Hi, long time KoDP player, new to the list. Will the source code for KoDP ever be opened up to the public? I suspect not, since I expect a game like this still...
I'm sure many people in this group will have harboured the desire to make a KoDP-a-like at one point or another. Did anyone ever do it? Are there any other...
I'm a new member - and not sure how many folks are out there. Anyway, I've been playing on and off since 2000. With the new HeroQuest 2.0 coming out soon I...
Not as far as I know. I too have scoured the gaming world for similar games, even if just in taste or spirit. But it seems to me that, sadly, KoDP is truly...
For my part, I'd love nothing more than to have a look at the KoDP source code. I hope A# seriously consider this possibility. They have little to lose on...
... After seeing the demo for Spirited Heart (Winterwolf Games), I was struck by the similarity in gameplay between the two games, even though Spirited Heart ...
... You can't compile KoDP without mTropolis header files. So there's not a lot of point to it. (Ignoring all the other issues, like the fact that it uses IDEs...
... Exactly. It really cannot hurt the KoDP sales in anyway. It would just be a fascinating look into the workings of the game for us fans. I am of the...
