Excalibur RPG Campaign


ABANDONED


Background:
The Maelstorm has moved south, revealing an Island. Alliance forces were the first to land on the island, and build camps. The second to come were barbarians, this uncivilized tribe began raiding alliance camps and food provisions, calling the island there own. Once alliance forces got deep within the island, they encounted the Burning Legion. The Alliance quickly sent for Immediate help, and when help arrived, they assualted the undead Bastion. Scouts reported that the undead have discovered an ancient war machine called, Excalibur. The undead quickly learned how to use the weapon, and with many necromancers and mages casting their magic into Excalibur, it became operation, and it was used against the Alliance forces, quickly scattering them. After 8 hours of destruction from Excalibur, the weapon became unstable, and it died out, giving the alliance some relief.
The reinforments have finaly arrived, just in time before the Undead fleet blockaded the island. The Undead are now in full force, spliting the the Alliance everywhere. Now is the time for heros, now is the time that you must rise up, and take the fight to the Undead, and destroy Excalibur, before it is operation again.

Summery: The assualt on an Undead bastion and the powerfull war machine, Excalibur has failed. It is up to you, to fight your way throught the island core, destroying the Undead assualt force, and to rally the Alliance army. Once the Alliance forces are in full force again, the second assualt shall commence, and this time, you must not fail. You must destroy Excalibur once and for all, before it destroys you.

Socketed Items
- Could you please provide me (us) with some pics and/or some smal introduction of how this works? I don't mean triggerwise but what the possibilities are for the player.

Trust me, I have seen many bad GUI implimentations of things that would seem rather complicated (like socketed items). So unless he has a leet jass triggerer to do it, it wont be what you think.

Socketed items - probably he means InvX

hmmm... well that's just sad... not as in invx is bad :P but having a good socket-system similar to DiabloII would be very nice. That's why I asked, since that's a very hard task and the map would be worth trying just because of that.

I am using the InvX system, for inventory stuff, item sets, and socketed items. caster system will also be used.

You can play as any of the original heros;however, there have been some spell changes, like the blood mage will not have ethreal ability, and the paladin can now heal himself with holy light, and reserection has been taken off. Or, you can play as a new, custom hero that we will make, obviously, with custom spells.

And to answer you question Jacek, the term "Laser Weaponry" Will most likely be changed, however, i have not decided what it will be, ie. Lightning bolt luancher, firebolt luancher, ete. but it will be something devistating and requires a lot of magic to use. It is also posable that instead of the undead constucting it, the device was developed by an ancient society, and they found it.

Screen shots will be coming soon.
