Broken Alliance
I didn't know where to put this thread, so I put it here.
We are working on a new project(not mod) called Broken Alliance: Heroes of the Lost Lands. It's a completly new game(so we didn't mod HoMM 3 or whatever). We are trying to make a HoMM clone which will have the most similiarities to HoMM 2 and HoMM 3. We intend to use the same resources like in HoMM series. The game will have 5 factions. 2 of them will be good, 2 evil and 1 neutral. First we have Wizards who are, well good (cause Wizard is a good magician, so), then we have Humans who are also good (something like knights in HoMM 2 or Castle in HoMM 3). 2 evil factions will be Barbarians and Necromancers. And then we have 1 neutral faction which will be the Elves (they live in peace and harmony with the nature etc. you get the idea). We're makin' this game in Blitz 3d. For now on we need a sprite artist. So if anyone is interested post here or contact me at emandanijel@yahoo.com.
The site of the game is www.brokenalliance.ucoz.com so feel free to register there.
And finaly if you have questions or suggestions, post here or at the original forum.

I always thought that elves should be good, since nature seems more on the good side (natural disasters are rarer than, say, a nice, full crop of vegtables that you can eat). Barbarians should be neutral, that's why they're neutral in HoMM3. I suggest removing wizards and putting in elves there (elves could be more on the magic side), and have the second evil town be something like Inferno.

Yeah, but in our story Barbarians are not much neutral(on the other hand they're evil ) And the Elves will be neutral in the begining, later they will lean towards the good side. But don't worry it will be balanced.
And btw, you can download the storyline that happened before the campaign.
I already wrote the story for the actual Campaign but we don't want to publish it so when you play the game next year(or when it comes out ) you can reveal the story mission by mission. (u know what I mean)

Huh...mmmkay. That sounds alright. But I think there should be one more faction...maybe 2 neutral (elves and something else), near the end elves become good and the something else becomes evil (Maybe sorcerers? They're pretty much the evil version of wizards). Also I think there should be a sort of really powerful town (not ZOMG UBAR-1337 powerful, like azures, but still more powerful than the others) that doesn't appear towards the middle/end (like Conflux in HoMM3). I don't know what the theme would be...all I can think of is dragons but I really like dragons (look under my avatar), so it's up to you. They could start off neutral but become either good or evil depending on who claims them (e.g. if a human town captures it becomes good, and vice versa). Just my two cents.

Nice idea, we'll consider that. Although we will already have 8 dragons. I still can't announce who and where will the dragons be but, about 8 of them I think

Nice. Are they the 8 legendary dragons from FF6 (Storm, Blue, Red, Ice, Earth, Gold, Skull, and Holy dragons)? That would be pretty cool if they were. Or maybe not. Not sure what the uber-faction might be. I was thinking my merf town from the second page (You can look at it, but DON'T post on it, it's better off dead), but that's all happy and smiley and yay-yay, so...I don't think so.

*Looks at sig* Oooh, linky! But yeah, I don't know where the 8 legendary dragons thing came from. You just said, '8 dragons' and it popped into my head. Shows how much of a Final Fantasy fan I am. Don't think I can really help, since I'm a horrible map maker and ERM scripter, but I'll do what I can.

Bump...sorry I haven't been on recently. What do you think the uber-faction should be? It would kind of be like a race to see which side gets it first...but it's not so 1337 that if you get it, you automatically win. I'm sorry I really can't help you due to my lack of ERM scripting.

I still can't use it...meh. I'm fresh out of ideas, unfortunately. Perhaps barbarians could start off neutral and become evil? That way it would be balanced...also, the second evil faction should be Heritics, as in people who have gone against the church of the humans and so they have been exiled, and they fight with demon creatures.

i, personally, prefer the undead to the demons.

o_O what would be balanced? in what way do the alignments affect game balance?

In Broken Alliance 1, there will be 5 factions. In BA 2, or in some expansion, we'll add more factions.

^(to vhilhu) It would be balanced because the elves start off neutral and then become good, so in order to be balanced, there should be another neutral faction that starts off neutral and then becomes evil, and the heretics won't replace the necromancers...
...have you been reading this thread at all? It's in the third post!
