Murlocs vs dragon, oh my!
« on: January 10, 2010, 07:44:09 pm »

I'm playing with the murloc mod installed.

I've also made quite a few entity mods of my own, including adding a dragon civilization that has an adventure tier.


I've tried several dragon adventurers, but generally they don't get far before getting ambushed by 20 to 30 murlocks, who invariably manage to kill my dragon. 

I knew murlocs were vicious little buggers, but I never thought they'd be able to take down a dragon!

Ha! Kobolds take down dragons, hydras and bronze colossi single-handedly, your morlocs are nothing in comparison to kobolds ;D.

Murlocs. Not morlocks. Murlocs are something in Warcraft.

Anyway, murlocs attack you in massive numbers, wrestling you till you fall over from exhaustion...

just keep moveing and let you counter attack do the killing.

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

I can't remember who made them, but they were posted on the forum a little while back.

I would, but when each adjacent tile contains up to 4 murlocks, all trying to grapple you, that doesn't work very well.

I normally managed to kill several, before they manage to pin me down, tire me out, and eventually render me unconcious.  Then its just a few hundred lines of "the murcloc strangles you", until I die.

When you play as something with the [NO_EXERT] tag does it mean you won't tire?

Yes.  You can keep fighting 'till you go mad from lack of sleep or die of dehydration.
