So here I am creating new items, what a time consuming endeavor. I'd be grateful if someone could tell me what the following values do: Apparently color codes? I've been ignoring them to no seeming ill effects but I'd rather find out before a catastrophe happens. [e digicons]:)[/e]
[quote who="davrovana" reply="18" id="3394057"] To those who dislike the lollipop/bunny slippers, consider modding out the items you don't like. I bet I could write it for you.[/quote] There is also the option of keeping the controversial items and changing their art defs. Regular (pink?) boots for the bunny slippers and a regular maul for the lollipop.
[quote who="StevenAus" reply="32" id="3388605"] Well, as long as the Spawn Ratings aren't hard-coded to 1/3/5/7/9/-1, that should be possible. Someone would need to make these champions.[/quote] Great idea. I just might take a look at it in the coming weeks unless someone else wants to do it.
I've uploaded a Children of Storm compatible version in case you wish to use CB with COS. If you already have the 1.1 version installed, you only need to replace the ChampionBonanza.xml and the ChampionBonanzaDLC02.xml files. I had expected to add all those extra tags slowly over the coming week but Notepad ++ is such a efficient application. Many thanks to Heavenfall who promptly responded to my questions. :)
Thanks to the both of you :) [quote who="davrovana" reply="28" id="3388442"] Imitation is the sincerest flattery, since playing this I have some ideas for making my own champion pack. Cheers.[/quote] The more the merrier! I look forward to the expanding roster of champs.
Updated to version 1.1 - Adds 46 more champions for a total of 219. - Includes two new random events which spawn two unique monsters: Yellowbelly and the Amethyst Automaton. I've concentrated mostly on expanding the lower levels (1, 3 and 5) in this update. The AI players almost always reach these fame milestones so I've added variety where I thought it was most needed. 6 of the new cha
Well that was short-lived. I got a "corrective" download which wiped out the new files as soon as I ended my gaming session. So yes obviously an error. [quote who="XWerewolfX" reply="3" id="3382822"] Tell us or I will hunt you down. Naow![/quote] Ah yeah... well... those claws sure look sharper than mine. More seriously, it's not my call until Stardock greenlights this. I thought everyone was getting the fil
I just had a mini-download after logging on to steam (no it's not the 1.3 beta) which installed three new XML files (new items and spells). I'm wondering if this isn't an error as some art seems to be missing (the scroll icon is used for the "cursed bell" for example). I'm leaving out the spoilerific stuff as my curiosity forced me to go through the entire file but my eyes almost popped out.  
A few things to report: 1) CoreUnits - Champion Vasim has his armor incorrectly written as "ChainBreastpiece_MasterworkArmor" instead of "ChainBreastpiece_Masterwork" - Champion Rostyra has two "Lethal1" lines. Not a problem unless one was supposed to be Lethal2? - Champion Shimsher has the "Sweep" ability listed instead of "Sweep_Level" (Warrior) - Champion Ulrik has an ability which doesn't exist "NaturalLeader" &n
Removing the allegiance tag (kingdom/empire) will prevent the champion from appearing at the fame milestone.
Check out posts 15 through 19 in this thread which deal with this very subject. Working as intended but I can't claim any credit or demerit for it. [e digicons];P[/e]
Yeah given the huge amount of traffic, the Nexus servers can sometimes be on the fritz. It's those Skyrim users again. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] OTOH, you don't need a premium account to post on the forums. It's free. Anyway, the file is not hosted anywhere else. Send me a private message with an email address and I'll forward it to you the "old-fashioned" way.
Thank you for this DLC, I'm really enjoying the additional content. The new Assassin armor is a visual treat. Bonesplinter is a fitting mount for the future sovereign of Elemental. I would like to add my voice to ask for "MORE".
The Ogre "ranged" crushing blow issue is still here. It was happening in my previous 1.2 game and it's also happening in my current Quest DLC game. My poor baby Naja never had a chance!
Babysitting on the battlefield? Well there's no denying that keeping a level 1 champ alive under those conditions would be a fun challenge, especially as the AI seems inclined to gun for weaker units (aka the arrow magnets).
What you describe is actually how it works in the standard game. At 3 fame --> Level 1 champions At 50 fame --> Level 3 champions At 100 fame --> Level 5 champions At 200 fame --> Level 7 champions At 400 fame --> Level 9 champions At 800 and beyond --> draws from the entire pool of champions, meaning you randomly get any of the above levels The last time I reached 800 fame, I had the choice between a level 5 and and level 9.

Thanks for trying it out. I'll have to squeeze some unofficial Druid in some future update. [e classic];)[/e]
Thanks :) [quote who="crimsongekko" reply="5" id="3364270"] can we use this as a mod instead? nice work [/quote] Yes you can run this as a mod if you prefer. Create a new folder in the mods folder and place the two XML files in it. Then put the 10 PNG files into the "gfx" folder. Enable mods and voilà.
[quote who="jutetrea" reply="2" id="3364072"] Can the AI get them as well?[/quote] Affirmative. They work exactly like the regular champions.

A few things I've come across. 1) CoreUnits Champion Norii The Quick still has the unit design "Acrobat" listed instead of "Acrobat_Level" which creates a gap in her skill tree. It might be intended so she can become a super acrobat by having the ability twice but I doubt it. :) 1) CoreMonsterUnitTypes - The two Guardian Idols no longer get access to the sovereign's spell repertoire because their SovereignBond ab
Champions are designed with a fixed starting level. Tuatha has a spawn rating of 5, meaning he will always be available as a level 5 champion (at 100 fame). You can't get him at other levels of fame (well except 800 and beyond where all champions become randomly available again but he will remain a level 5 champion).
It's just a design decision. Tuatha has Calloused Hide, Regeneration, Tough and Revenge as abilities (and Vulnerability to fire). Giving him extra skills in the General or Defender trees would make him OP compared to other level 5 champions. It could be argued that Tuatha is limited with the equipment he can use but that's another debate. There are other champions which have no points spent in their path trees and have to start from scratch. Janusk for example: a le
Maybe that Explorer came from a faction with the Stealth trait? I've seen this several times in FE games and it actually happened twice in my favor. Each time however I was playing a faction with the Stealth ability so I never considered it a bug.
