Legends of Argosia

---

A 1-p RPG/campaign hybrid with a generic but epic storyline. Since it's a campaign, and all the levels are different, for some of these catagories I'm only posting for level one.

Storyline / Introduction

---

BRIEFING
Before Time started, the only living things in the universe were Mother Earth and Father Sky. Together they gave birth to Time and a pantheon of gods and goddesses. When Mother Earth died, Father Sky never ceased to mourn her. Now his wails of sorrow make the wind and his tears make the rain.

One of their sons was the god of invention, Ceataus. With permission from his father, he used the four basic elements; Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire; to create life on what was his mother's corpse and make the world of Argosia. He then built four intellegent races, one from each element. From Wind he created humans, from Earth he created elves, from Fire he created Flamebloods, and from water he created ogres.

For nearly a thousand years, the four races existed in relative peace, broken only occasionally by minor border skirmishes. Now, however, the ogres have unexplainedly begun a massive mobilization of their military, much to the displeasure of the other three nations.

Seventy years ago, a human knight named <player's name> was mortally wounded in combat with a dragon that had been terrorizing the local countryside. he was rushed to the High Temple in Tomdin City for healing. On the way, he lost consiousness.
INTRO MOVIE
Now he has finally woken up.

A seer at the High Temple tells him of what is happening with the ogres. They are using an ancient item of great power--the Ice Crystal--to tereform the rest of Argosia to match their frozen tundra homeland so that they can inade. To stop them, the knight has been chosen by Allora the goddess of peace to collect the other two of Argosia's powerful crystals: the Crystal of Balance and the Fire Crystal, to offset the Ice Crystal's magic. The seer tells the knight to go to the island of Sharadok to speack with the king of the Flamebloods and retrieve the Fire Crystal, then bring it back to the High Temple.

Screenshots / Demo

---

YOU is a working name. Any suggestions for a *good* name for the knight other than YOU?
YOU(again, working name) mounts his horse and leaves Tomdin. In the final version, the horse will not be able to lay spider mines, don't worry.
The purple guy must protect the yellow guys from the blue guys.
I'm not sure what this temple does yet.
When you stand under the Inn, you use the "yes" and "no" buttons to decide wether or not to spend 5 minerals and get fully healed.

Made with Production Template

Is this going to be real-time combat? To take screenshots your in the game and you get the spot you want and you press the bottom on your keyboard that says Print Screen and it says also SysRq its right in the top right area of your keyboard right accross F12

Photobucket: not a valid file type
SEN: you cannot post a file with that file extension
Imageshack: bad file type
Paint: unable to open file



I got the screenshots, though.

And ya, real-time combat.

you have the screenshot but it doesnt accept it? check the file type and make sure its .bmp .jpeg .gif or .png one of those types should work...to make sure they are open them on Paint and save as then on the Save Type As scroll bar thing pick one of those.

This sounds like it could be a really good rpg, its got enough levels planned, good details for background info and enough interesting features to make it unique . Obviously it won't overrun b.net since its single player but other than that . I assume the videos will be in-map videos and not cinematics since this is a one man project. Best of luck with your campaign :-).

you've got to use Irfanview to convert the SS into .gif or .jpg before it becomes a valid filetype

Got it. Thanks, Atreyu) and Zeratul_101. I'll post some screenies now.

And -BW-Map_God, who said I was a man? Well, I am, but who said I was?
