Default Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games

At the moment those routines choose a random number from zero to the highest numbered unit in the game. It then makes that unit a commander, then selects another random number for what unit will be some bodyguards, and another random number for what is troops. The units in the game are not organized in any way that lets me easily select units that are leaders, or pretenders, or mages, or even water/land so the results are totally random. Anything can be a leader, anything can be a bodyguard, anything a troop, and if they drown in the first turn of the game then oh well.

To do more logical assignments, someone would need to go thru all the units in the game and make a text file of which are which so that my routines could select from it. Ive asked for it before but no one has done one.

hmm, bummer. Hopefully it will eventually come out, fun though

Gotta be unfair when i get 20 giants and a free bow of war and the AI gets a suped up mage with a slave collar

Other way around too, but then i just reload!
