The smoke is white =D.

 

[Quintillius]

I have a new suggestion. Try to implement titles. From Prince, Marquesses to Landgrave and Baron.
Could u also create a mod install with all addons?

 

[bjorne.]

No I won't do an installer for the addons. They're not mine, the addons are the property of the addons maker.

And by the love of god, use the edit button and don't double post!

 

[Venitius]

Not to mention that only a few addons are compatible with the rest.

 

[bjorne.]

Indeed.

 

[Quintillius]

Okay, you convinced me.
But what about the Titles? And maybe the shield can be removed or changed for extra ammunation or a sort of medicine chest which still give the defense bonus.

 

[Venitius]

Why? Bandages hardly helped stop bullets, and it might be a fluke if it was slowed by your powder horn but didn't penetrate, but otherwise, if the bullet hit your cartridge pouch - which is leather, it wouldn't give you any damage reduction at all. Probably make it worse.

 

[Quintillius]

I don't think you understand me. Bandages can stop bleeding and prevent you from the dead.
What is worser, shields in 1800 or bandages? >__<

 

[Venitius]

You were talking about using medical equipment and ammo pouches as shields!  It wouldn't work in M&B that way. I suppose the best thing would be to add a "bandage" item to the party inventory that stops bleeding - if that is added -  and heals you a bit when applied. As well as stopping healing.

As for the extra ammo, you could just have another slot for ammo? Or have an "ammunition train" item that auto-replenishes your ammo per 10 minutes?

 

[bjorne.]

He simply wishes to replace the shield and crossbow you get in the start. I think.

 

[Quintillius]

Do you know the western 1866 mod? (great, great mod)
They have bullets as item. If you equip the bullets you can shoot 10 more bullets.

What i mean with bandages, just no visible item, but you can equip it and have the shield bonus.
Just change the shield by bandages (which only is visible in the inventory). Or... you can remove all shields, but you don't get the defence bonus more =(.

 

[bjorne.]

I know what you're talking about mate. But I also have ammo in my mod :S

 

[Quintillius]

xD. I didn't play the Blackpowder mod. I'm waiting on the European map, thats the only thing why i didnt play the mod.

And what about the medicine/bandages or whatever or anything else what gives you a defence bonus instead of the shield.

 

[bjorne.]

Well, it's an idea. I'd however like to remove the shield and make an item you have in your backpack that is consumable, and that heals the party. When it runs out, it stops healing the party.
That shouldn't be medicine though, but like a surgeon and that I am working on already.

 

[Quintillius]

K, nice. But does the surgeon works inbattle or on worldmap?

 

[bjorne.]

plan would be on world map, just like regular food. But with the healing part. But this is just in planning stage.
If you want a surgeon now could you take a companion with high medical skills. I usually have one who knows good First Aid, Surgery and the other medic thing. And one than knows Enginering well, aswell as tactics and training. Then I have high Leadership, Prisoner Management and Inventory Management.

I plan to make it so that you need these companions as officers more and more in the future.

 

[Quintillius]

Nice. Really great .
If u remove the shield, the game will be much harder and you really need your army =D.

 

[bjorne.]

Well the plan is that you start with an army.
A french army. Or somethiing simular.

 

[Quintillius]

Frankly there should be an option in the beginning which
let me be the Faction Leader, general, captain, highwayman or whatever.

Just for more different nature.

 

[bjorne.]

Yes, though that would require a module system, of which I no longer pocess for this very mod. Having this for any future mod though is a good idea.
