Warscale 83 - New year resolution

Hello everybosy!
This is my first post of this year. I plan to make a resolution and make this one the year where I finish Warscale.

My last post was a couple days before XMas and I have been on holidays which were really very refreshing. Other than relaxing with my family, my XMas present was an XBox 360 with a Kinect. It is really an amazing technology and I'm completely tempted into starting development for this platform. Meanwhile my body still aches from all those jumps... I'm not really in my best shape.

Anyway, in the warscale front, I fixed a critical bug. Really, it was huge but fortunately limited to sorceries which fired when the creature was standing in a certain type of terrain. I also changed the font used for the cards which got me more readability (I think I already mentioned that). But the most important change is that I also added a bar of spheres to each avatar so now the avatar displays which spheres are allowed for casting. This helps cutting down the text in the instructions area.

And of course there are more spells:

Water Form
I started this spell as a very cute simple spell, but it turned into something so powerful that it can easilly turn a vanilla creature to a deadly powerhouse, fast and extremely resilient in addition.

After some testing the cost and price of the card was increased in a couple levels making this the most powerful sorcery available in the game right now.


Fire shape
The companion to the previous spell, this is a slightly lower cost spell. It provides a point of attack per each fire tile so it can turn sheeps into blood thirsty assasins.
The dependency on fire tiles makes the power of the spell variable and very in the tone with the fire sphere. It also makes some artifacts in the game more useful while paving the way for more spells.

So, following the focus on fire, water and air spells, the next spells are:
Fireball - Fire - I just noticed I have no fireball spell. This is so cliche that I need one.
Dispel magic - Air - Another classic missing spell.
Dominate - Water - This is what the water sphere is about. Playing with minds, stealing the control of the opponent faithful units.

Right now I have 22 spells. Those three will make 25. I;m closing to my target before starting with the artifacts.

Well I wish you all success in your own projects!
Luck!
