Re: Help With Wurdz
Just a heads up I'm changing the footmen to Paladin bonding and Arthas (Jandar) to a Paladin for his class.
While talking about classes a question I had about the Footmen was what their class should be, I have them as knights currently, but I also have the Knights of Lordaeron listed as Knights, whereas the Footmen are more soldiers of the line, so should they be classified as Squires? Or Soldiers? Or maybe just classed as Footmen? What makes more sense linguistically? Customs here Master Set IV/Assault in the Mournlands.

Re: Help With Wurdz
If you would be so kind, I have a card that's particularly difficult to word. I'd like any input I can get.

Re: Help With Wurdz
Hope you don't mind Scytale, but I went ahead and transcribed the card's text per Dad_Scaper's earlier request.
FLOWING OOZE After a Yellow Ooze moves normally or with this special power, you may choose any other Yellow Ooze you control that has not moved this turn and was adjacent to this Yellow Ooze before it moved. Place the chosen Yellow Ooze adjacent to any Yellow Ooze you control that moved this turn. If possible, you must place it adjacent to at least two Yellow Ooze that moved this turn. A Yellow Ooze moved by Flowing Ooze will take any leaving engagement attacks. ENGULF When attacking with a Yellow Ooze, you may add one additional attack die for each other Yellow Ooze you control adjacent to the defending figure. OOZE REGROWTH If a Yellow Ooze destroys a figure that is not destructible object with a normal attack, you may place one of your previously destroyed Yellow Ooze adjacent to any Yellow Ooze you control.

Re: Help With Wurdz
Thanks, Scy, for the opportunity to look at one of your excellent customs. I'll have a look at it tomorrow. And thanks, SW, for the transcription.

Re: Help With Wurdz
Ok, William, I'll come back to your Warcraft customs another time. Let me know if there's a pressing need for one (or more) of them.
On to the SoV candidates: Rampage: Quote:
This version, already accepted by the SoV for review, seems fine. Marshal Quote:
I'm also not clear on the name "Marshal." Marshal, spelled this way, is a rank. Would you name a custom "Lieutenant"? I would think probably not. And yet the name choice is obviously something you thought about, so perhaps you have a good reason. Thoughts? |

Re: Help With Wurdz
Just my two pennoth about the Marshal name - I'm not really seeing much of a problem, considering the general naming convention for Warforged (seems to fit in with Heirloom and Siege reasonably) - but maybe 'Martial' would be another good possibility? Or most other words that feel fairly militaristic, really.

Re: Help With Wurdz
And now, on to Scy's Yellow Ooze.
As Scy knows, I'm a big fan of his customs, but when I saw this one I thought "That guy," the Yellow Ooze, not Scy, "needs an edit." So, let's see if I can help. Quote:

My goal here was just to tighten it up. The grammar & spelling & whatnot are all fine, which I'm sure is not a surprise to you. Quote:

I also know you well enough to leave alone the "with a normal attack," though perhaps "with an attack" would serve your subtle purposes more simply. I will leave that in your capable hands. See how the card looks with the shorter Flowing Ooze. I hope you like it, many thanks for sharing! |

Re: Help With Wurdz
I'll look tomorrow, SF. I think the moves with and moved by phrases are OK as is. The "moved by" is in the Leaving Engagement language, which implies the passive role of being moved by the player. The "moved with" is a reference to play on the board, and the units' active relationship with each other.

Re: Help With Wurdz
Sanity check on Flowing Ooze?
Have you thought about how it works with roads? A single ooze on a road and adjacent to another ooze could potentially slingshot a trailing ooze 20 spaces or more in even a moderately large ooze horde. ~Aldin, going with the flow He either fears his fate too much or his desserts are small That dares not put it to the touch to gain or lose it all ~James Graham |
