8) Airborne Ranger
9) Acererak
10) Drogo
put Dupont back in his spot
Just to confirm, will this have the new 565 orders for EL/DA, the EL/DA/DW/RA terrain bonuses, the Phoenix for BL? Hard to keep track of what's in and what's out.

Mike has been quick with changes in the new platform, but there is a lot to do overall, and I made the design for Phoenix pretty complicated for a change only affecting one kingdom, so that may not be ready.
Yes, all the other 565's are moved back to 4th Scenario, which will be the main point of that, with perhaps some new artifacts and a couple or three new kingdoms and perhaps a new tactic or two.
Mainly, I want to stop adding variations on 2nd Cycle games, get the last changes in place, do 4th Scenario, and move on to 3rd Cycle.
Thanks Rick. Maybe Mike could start a thread like Cipher that has a development list and estimated dates? That would be cool to see for the players but also understand you might not want to do that either.

Its mainly on me for the changes to the new platform - Mike has been quick.
1. I need to finish up the artifact changes. I have decided to hold off on new artifacts except maybe the Oracle of the Old Gods until 4th Scenario, but we have lots of changes to existing artifacts that have been alluded to elsewhere that I need to finalize.
2. I need to make the remaining changes to the kingdom dossiers. This being the new text for ESO, SVP, and Kingdom special abilities that have not been done, and possibly revising the page 1 of the dossiers.
3. Mike has been in about daily contact on trying to get the combat system in the new platform copacetic with the design intentions.
4. Probably need another pass through the Commands for the last changes.
5. Need to limit the variable formats so game initiation can be automated, as well as victory checks.
6. A few other loose ends on various things.
I also want to again acknowledge the other team member contributors to the Alamaze world:
1. Cipher, of course #1, who we could never have gotten going again without a ton of stuff on his part, and who has facilitated the transition to the new platform, and spent a lot of time getting us from where NC left off to what players see Alamaze to be today.
2. Lord Diamond for making Valhalla into what it is.
3. Frost Lord for his Helpful Charts and new calculators for political actions.
4. Bananas for his diligent work to get the Turn Parser going. When ready, this should be a time saver and really help the players who don't do all the record keeping that more experienced players do, and may automatically update your maps.
5. The Mentors in our games and the helpful posters that answer questions here on the forum that is now over 17k posts.

Replacing previous message as I need to hold off on joining Alamaze for the time being.
