The AC2 Wiki

Stickying the indexing the NN factions thread is good, though maybe I'd like to write a modding resources sticky linking to a load of wiki and other things to replace the sticky at some point. I'd rather keep the sidebar link pointing at the wiki main page not the custom factions bit.

You do that - I'll hook you up with a sticky.

Only 17 more factions to go (plus Jarl's and a few recent ones)!

Hey ete, I tried to upload a PNG of some faction graphics but the wiki gave me an error. Is something broke?

[ete]

Possible, tell me the error?

Screenshot attached.

Alright, I'll look into it. May wait a couple of days though, real life stuff.

[ete]

did another 7 factions. still need to look at uploads.

[ete]

Think I figured out the issue with uploads, PMed sisko to make the change needed since I don't have access.

I think I found a faction which could beat the Scotsnoobs, at least if they started close: http://alphacentauri2.info/wiki/The_Mindworms

They have a 3900% Psi modifier. Think about that for a moment.

Though maybe it hits a cap.


Also, all factions other than those under development are now on wiki. Factions under development will be added, but I'd like to see the faction developers familiarizing themselves with the wiki so they will keep it up to date, I don't mind uploading them and helping out but it'd be good for the wiki to stay updated if I am away.

I think I saw that once before, and what you're missing is that they have +3900% to psi combat, but -95% to offense and defense, so it comes out to 1/20 the strength in non-psi and twice the strength in psi.

Ah, the standard combat multipliers work on Psi combat as well? I thought they were standard combat only for some reason.

In that case, it's a much less insanely broken faction.

I'd like to see some playtesting anyway.

(I only did the art on the Scotsn00bs, after getting RMcD to do the theme and writing; the unbeatable stats were all by Russia4life...  I'm more invested in the SupaNewbs, for which I did make the first draft of the stats.)

The fanatic bonus does not apply to psi combat, but the offense and defense modifiers do.

I may well throw them into a future game (Worms not the unbeatable factions, those will be a special challenge).

Okay, I'll add that to the faction editing guide.
