BITTERFROST II - Development Thread!

[CapTVK]

Oh no, there's a killer PANDA on the rampage!!!

[curtsibling]

This panda is a real bugger, I can assure ya!

[Cyrion]

Ok Curt, I guess this screenshot might indicate that you could possibly be right about some alleged advantages that Tot should have above MPGE

Too bad I won't have any days off around Xmas to playtest it as well as it should be! But if you want, I'm sure I could find a few hours... (I'll do it for Irene...)

[curtsibling]

Don't worry too much as I am sure the playtesting will stretch into the new year as well.

If you are on board for playtesting, you too, will get to fight the 'panda of evil!'

[Arthedain]

Count me in as well Curt. I should get some hours to play this one.

[curtsibling]

One thing I notice too is that the Undead and Ancients seldom go to war with each other.

Even though they have no formal alliance set up!

This leads me to think the human kingdoms are facing the 'Axes of Evil!'

[jim panse]

Say, if you´d need another playtester I´d volunteer as well!

Btw, any news on the armoured stuff for Oktyabr

[GoPostal]

I'd love to playtest, if you need it.

[Sarsstock]

Sign me up for playtesting too Curt!! I can't wait to give this game a try. I wonder if this year will be the year where ToT becomes more popular with designers and players than MGE? Only time will tell. I say this because of Red Front, Atomic Eagle II, Vendetta II, and now Bitterfront II are all going to be exclusively ToT, for now at least.

Say Curt, whatever happened to that game Kingdom of Steel you had in the works? I really liked the premise and hope we can see it one day.

[curtsibling]

Thanks guys, you will all get a zip when the time comes!

PS
Kingdom of steel was completed a while ago - Sadly no-one took any notice!



Perhaps I didn't advertise it enough at the time - But it did serve as a good fore-runner to BF!

[jim panse]

Btw, I loved playing Kingdoms of Steel a lot! Only point of concern is the dumb AI ... which is of course not your fault, mate!

Cheers

[curtsibling]

Thanks, old buddy!

I know, the AI is astoundlingly silly at times...

But there are other times when the computer civs give you a surprise!

Semi-bad news on that front dude, I am really unable to recreate
the kind of colours that are possible in the ToT versions...
I have tried all kinds of palette conversions, but to no avail -
The MGE colours just look unacceptable.

I did put together a small compo of stuff I hope is useful to you,
I could not convert the colours on the tanks you had provided...

Again, forgive me not being able to get this one done
the way you had wanted; but the MGE pallete is too
limited for what I wanted to do.

Hope you are not too annoyed with this situation...

[curtsibling]

BTW - Anything else from Vendetta you wish for your use, like the planes - Just gimme a yell.

[Sarsstock]

Wow!! Thats some of the best colouring I've ever seen there Curt.
