AoM: The Titans |
Behind the Scenes
-----------------
This is the third part of my Circe saga. After her victory over Theris in the underworld, Hades has sent the reluctant heroine to the Norselands where two dwarven brothers are fighting a desperate battle against time, trying to reforge the Hammer of Thor...
To play this scenario just copy the file 'Behind the Scenes.scx' into your 'scenarios' folder. You need the 'AoM: The Titans' expansion to run the scenario, but apart from that no extras are necessary, it works with the standard installation.
I would appreciate any comments, good or bad. Please tell me what you liked, what you disliked, and especially, tell me why. If you have any ideas on how to improve it, all the better.
Please send your comments via e-mail to hoodncloak@hotmail.com. Oh, and add 'AoM' to the subject, otherwise your message will probably be lost within the spam.
Some comments from my side:
- There are no difficulty levels in this scenario. It has been tested on 'easy' only, so I'd suggest you play it like that.
- Don't expect a pushover, I'm always trying to make my scenarios "pleasantly hard". You have been warned... ;-)
- The scenario features well over 300 triggers, so slower machines may get some problems. A three year old PIII 900 MHz, 512 MB RAM does work fine though.
Oh, and one last hint: Explore the map! I doubt that you will be able to complete the scenario without uncovering one or two little secrets first.
Have fun!

Try again, and check if you really had completely repaired all buildings (TC, Towers, Forges, Armory and Temple). |

The playability was brilliant. I was somewhat sceptical when I first began, but it turned out to be really fun! There was never a dull moment and I always found something very interesting around every corner, whether it be a wonderful garden or a jolly fellow in a house surrouned by walls. I congratulate you on yet another incredibly playable and very fun scenario
Balance: 4
I never seem to find too much to say about balance... the map was nicely balanced, and it was all possible - but hard - which was ncie for a change. I don't like scenarios where it's almost impossible not to win, and I think you've done very well here - though those blasted mountain giants caused me to re-try the scenario a couple of times.
Creativity: 5
A very creative idea, along with the title; 'Behind the Scenes' which fits in perfectly with the whole storyline and the idea of it fitting in with 'The Fall of the Trident' campaign. The objectives all struck me as somewhat original, and therefore creative, but that may have just been the way it was presented. Either way, it's all good.
Map Design: 3
A very nicely designed map with surprises around every corner. Like 'The Reluctant Heroine', you gave the player the choice to be able to go everywhere straight off - I appreciate this a lot as set roads do often become rather tedious.
Many parts of the map were full of eye candy, and the best part is that it looked compeltely feesable and realistic. There were no ridiculous features that noone could ever practically dream of and again, I appreciate this.
However, there was nothing particularly outstanding or unique in this. Though this of course is not a bad thing, I feel more miscellaneous and ambient objects could have added to an atmosphere.
Story/Instructions: 5
Very nice story which fits in with 'The Fall of the Trident' very nicely in a smooth way. The instructions were also very clear, and I knew exactly what to do and when to do it, whilst overcoming various obstacles.
I really did like the story, I liked the fact that the gods were a "major" part of the game, both Loki and Thor being referred to quite often as well as Aesir (I think?) which was nice.
Additional Comments:
All I can additionally say is that I really look forward to the Forth Part.

If the forge wasn't built in such an open space maybe I could have concentrated on defense at 1 point... |

Btw, the bug you mentioned in your first post - did it reappear, or was my assumption about the TC correct?[Edited on 03/04/04 @ 02:52 AM]

Btw, Aesir is no god. The Aesir are Odin, Thor & Co, one of the families/races of the norse gods. |

Well, I'm pften sceptical, too foten really. The cinematic was great, it was initially the whole send dwarves to base bit. I really don't know why, I shouldn't have been but... meh :)
I knew I'd get the Aesir bit wrong. I always seem to if there isn't a book detailing Norse Mythology right in front of me :p |
