Goblin Guard
« on: January 04, 2008, 12:21:00 am »

I got attacked by a goblin invasion and I got to wondering what kind of units were attacking me (hoping I'd find the leader).  I saw the usual... the axemen, the swordmen, those bastard crossbowmen, but then I happened to see this one unit, special from the rest.  It was Strodno... the guard...  bug?  feature?  has this always been going on?

I think 'round here they call it a featurebug.

Why not guards?  They may draft some goblin "fortress guards" to join in their military after you defeated their scouting party (I assume that this is NOT the first invasion and that you've killed the last one/few).  I'll expect that if the goblin king comes, he should bring royal guards too.

It seems reasonable enough, even if it is not intentional...

"Feature-bug"... sounds appropriate.
bug before it is documented.
feature after it is documented.
feature-bug when it is not documented but about to coz nobody wants to/expects it to be changed? LOL

It didn't used to tell you who the guards were, but for whatever reason, I had to scrap that.  Putting it back in is written down somewhere.
