To become a Proper Man

**MagUidir** · June 19, 2010, 05:05 AM

sorry this saying is from the books. would it be possible for later versions bc i know you guys are nearly done or perhaps even a submod that the traits system be almost like DLV? but with a darkage twist? like hes not a "Proper Man" till hes fought in his first shield wall or like getting arm rings for feats and having "special weapons" like wasp-sting and etc.? i think this would add to the Role play aspect of the game which honestly if ya have read the books ya wanna be right next to Uhtred as one of his Oathmen in the shieldwall getting your Armrings and drinking an whoreing. you guys have done an outstanding job. i was just wanting to throw some ideas outthere for future use. if i knew how to mod id join the team but for now ill wait patiently and let the experts work! keep it up guys! cant wait for the release!

Some of these kind of traits have been added. In the future I plan on adding more, I just don't want to hold up a release over it.

I was thinking about a trait system for Arm Rings and Oathmen, I haven't decided on the best way to implement it, but I agree, it would be really cool.

Definately considering the idead of "proper man" traits, etc. Good idea!

no problem i have been thinking as im re-reading through the series waiting for the release! have to admit im pretty excited and praying to odin that i get chosen to be one of the beta testers! i know this is far fetched.. but would it be possible to add a bodyguard on the battlemap? such as a "oathmen" i know its a retarded question. Also

lol since all armies back then for the most part fought in shieldwalls have you guys beefed up this special ability? that way just like in the books/real world you will get demolished if not in a shield wall? and last question, are the generals all going to be mounted? or can they dismount? that allso would be cool if irrelevant to the battle. was just thinking if a general did dismount and fight on foot or fight on foot anyways then he could get that "proper man" trait. love the work cant wait guys keep it up!

any update on possibly introducing some new/different traits?

Some new traits are going to be added, but as far as the concept from this thread we're going to hold off unless until we get an initial release so as not to keep people waiting too long
