Best update ever ! Also just kind of funny. Maybe all the ruined ghost towns should be restored in this reverse world :P

I've been thinking for a while about a partial reclamation of Kurzmordar by the dwarves, but I like this idea better; putting them in Apoc New Sos. Also, if I put 'new muskets' in - then some steampunk dwarves would be a good source & reason for that ! excellent idea

and with the reclamation of the city, comes re-learning the ancient art of smithing mithril weapons ! The lore comes together ! it all makes sense !

I am making progress tho sometimes it doesn't feel like it.

The thing I need now is maps. There are only 2 new hunting grounds - neither are quite finished. There will initially be a random caves + random dungeon, so 4 total. I was going to move blood mino and blood mountain pass, but am reconsidering that now, tho may make scripted apoc versions. But that is cheap content.

Anyone feel like making maps?

What level or skill difficulty range should these maps be? Has anyone contacted any of the old mapmakers and seen if they are interested (esp the excellent scripters)?

I was on a hot streak for a while with maps but my motivation level has took a shit. I am about half way done with a snow themed apoc map but that I really need to finish.

The other two maps I was planning on working on are:
Boneyard and Pet Cemetary: High level undead (liches, demi-liches, skeleton dragons, zombie dragons, undead lords).
Sanguine Fortress: Blood creature themed fortress.

A good addition would be either a Gauntlet or a version of skullthrone's keep, filled with the void creatures.

I'm working on one, and it ties in great with your Apocalyptic idea. I wanted to have it done by now, but I want it to come out right. I'll keep you updated!

Not related to dungeons or maps, but maybe in the new land players could learn the skill of jewelcrafting and make rings, amulets, sigils and circlets/tiaras and or orbs with not-too-op enchants. Think of using those gems for precious craft-only ring tints: ruby ring could give MINOR buff to fire resistance or slightly increase your hp. Maybe the skill could be discovered with a quest. I've got the details in my head, but I though to post it here, since I believe this is the content focused on currently.

Looking good! I'm digging the re-purposed EFTV tiles. I still have my list of ideas/stats for the EFTV monsters translated into the Apoc. expansion. Let me know if you need my help! :geek:

Also if you add the new monsters to MapEd, I can start working on a map with them (although you could just add the monsters in a map I submit to you).

I'm borrowing this from LAUGHING OUT LOUD LIKE A MORON but it would be cool if the scorpions had a move similar to seize but paralyzed you and dragged you along side of them. Or if they used throw like the kraken.

Either move would be cool because it gives the players less control over what they lure, adding a new difficulty.

Similiarly a cry for help similar to battle roar would be cool.

It's going to be important that all the new mobs all have at least one new ability - I know it's more work but just can't keep rehashing the same old crap - and pinching ideas from dota & l.o.l is not the worst idea in the world

Perhaps we should start compiling a list of new abilities? I've got a lot of old gaming books. I could take a gander. Makes me wish I had rifts and cyberpunk PDFs or hard books.
ZUPS!!!!
