This isn't a REAL map, it's just a sample of how I am implementing Items in my next RPG style map.

Swords: Allow you to slash (Line Damage). The width of the line is dependant on your strength, the damage on the level of the sword, and your 'combat' skill.

Hammers/Blunts: Allow you to Slam, which does damage to nearby units, and has a chance to stun any or all of them. Area is dependent on STR, Damage on the Hammer level, and combat level.

Spears: Allow you to 'Throw' which does direct damage to a single unit. Damage is dependant on STR and Agility, as well as Combat and Spear Level.

Axes: Allow you to Cleave. A Cleave is a mighty swing that deals damage based on your Combat skill, and the level of the Axe. If the Cleaving swing kills the first target, it will damage a second, if it kills that target, it will go for a third, and so on(Max 10).

In here I have a level 1, 4, and 8 item for each type. You can only equip one at a time, and they must be in slot 1 to work.

When the map opens, go ahead and put some skills into combat, and play around with the various weapons (use them on the Peasants to the North).
To use a weapon, simply Use the "Combat" Skill your hero has (Hotkey = C) and Aim where you want it to go. SLAM Doesn't care where you click, so long as it's close to your hero. Cleave will determine what direction the 'cleaving' swing goes.


Last note: I haven't handled the 'special effects' very well yet (Just hashed together) so after you play for a while, you may have some problems with them.

Anyhow: Cheerio!

Oh, should I have not put it here? I've had a few people asking about it, and wanted a publicly accessible spot where they could check, while at the same time giving random forumers a chance to see what I've been doing lately.
