New Enemy Ideas

[bugfartboy]

Yay for the Mechanic Major.

[ArtDrake]

I vote Aye.

[KZ]

I shall abstain from voting: although I like the idea, though I am not convinced that the said unit (Mechanics Major) is the best manifestation of the idea in the Telepath universe.


bugfartboy- what say you to the Helenite Captain (unit with whirlwind)? 1-2 more votes and it's on formulated.

I'm slightly against the Mechanics Major. It seems interesting to me but looking at his stats he's little more than a sharp rock (you can hurt yourself if you go against it, but it's easy to avoid).

I would agree completely if you didn't say it "seems interesting".

[ArtDrake]

Let me guess: the "slightly" part is also not your cup of tea?

[bugfartboy]

I'm not sure. I havn't read about the Helenite Captain yet. I'll update this when I have a vote.

Helenite Captain Update: I vote Yay.

[Cypher]

Helenite captain/mechanic's major ideas: yay.

[cyso]

I vote yay on the Helenite Captain, not so sure about the Mechanic Major.

[KZ]

Right, folks!
The Helenite Captain goes trhough with 9 "yay"s! Thanks folks!

The Mechanic major is not likely to make the cut: so far we have 4 no and 2 yes.
I suggest the idea is either dropped, or somehow changed/re-presented in some other forum if it is to stand a chance, methinks.

how about "Sand Cat"

Health: 17
PsP: 0
Speed: 7

Attacks:
Slash: 7damage
Pounce (or flying slash of pounce is taken): moves forward one then attacks character in front of it like slash but loses two health.

(is that how I format it?)

7 Speed. Nay! Nay! Nay!

[ArtDrake]

Cats can outrun humans anyday, and I think that's the point. Maybe they could only be included in zones where there's a fly-zone obstacle wall to hide behind.

[The Holy namelesskitty]

exactly, if you insist then I can reduce it to six speed, but I've been outrun by house cats many times, and yes I was thinking along the same lines as duckling.

In case you haven't noticed, there is only one enemy with a speed over 3.  That is because it is really, really hard to code an enemy with a speed of 4.  I will vote "nay" to any enemy with speeds greater than 4, because there is no possiblity it will be put into the game.
