    I woke up this morning, and read the King Arthur Dev blog as usual.
    All of a sudden new weapons! These will surely bring about more teamwork, alongside new strategy :o

    Also the bison should be useful for demolishing things ;)

    Can the canopy be used as a moving platform or just for cover?
    Also those rams look mighty useful ;D
     
  3. I really, really want to tease the bison.

    I don't really want more siege weapons. I'd be totally down for some bison teasing, though.

    Gunpowder keg looks fun :D But bison teasing looks even better :)

    It only reminds me of trying to get the powder keg from the big goron and running to the race track in Majora's Mask. I hope these kegs aren't as impossible.

    It did say it was a joke...but I like to think it was a true joke :)
    My main wish is being able to reconfigure keys.

    It was a vague joke lol
    Was the teasing part left out or the entirety of the bison? It appears we must find out later...

    The real joke is that they're gonna add the bison anyway

    Sani's likely on the money. We might even add a red cloth as an easter egg to see how many people get it :P

    Food production -> Farming/Hunting -> NPC Animal Implementation is a way off though.

    On a more serious note, You'll be able to stand atop canopies if you like (I'll prod Michal about that) and the powder keg will slow you down and make your jump crap but also be able to blow out a large section of tiles easily -> be useful for both mining and for bringing down forts.

    Hmph, a game about medieval england and you're going to add an animal native to america... If you're going to add a joke animal at least make it a BULL.

    It won't just be a joke animal, but you're right about ordinary cattle being most realistic. We might make a one in a thousand joke bison anyway though.
    fwiw neither me nor Michal are from the US, a bison just sprung to mind whilst scribbling that draft.
