I think the elf map actually looks more like Chrace, especially the Illboughs area leading towards Dark Elf ch 5 with the white cliffs and blasted looking grass/trees. Maybe the Phoenix Gate mechanic was intended for a tier lower? I agree with you on the map assessment though, just think perhaps it would be worthwhile to swap the mechanic to something like a Black Fire Pass so you don't have too many of one scenario type.space44 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 7:16 pm Kadrin Valley is using Mountbloodhorn assets, looking at the trees, ground textures, and skybox.
un-named elf map looks a lot like Pheonix gate, it was probably scrapped and replaced with for the one we have now (the un-named elf map looks like shadowlands and the one we have now that looks identical is ellyrion).
now that i look more into it the Un-named elf map does look like chrace/blighted isles. also i like to believe that the KVP map is a post battle before it leads up to Gates of Ekrund looking at the assets used.OddSean wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 8:22 pmI think the elf map actually looks more like Chrace, especially the Illboughs area leading towards Dark Elf ch 5 with the white cliffs and blasted looking grass/trees.

KVP is interesting too, perhaps it was removed super early in development and the Bloodhorn assets are all placeholder? Or it happened somewhere more temperate nearby?
Hmm, possibly. I'm not sure though, from running around it on a super old WarEmu fork the load screen is KV's, there are steep mountains on each side of the map and there are patches of KV grass. It seems a bit weird to have all that if it was intended for a Gates of Ekrund buildup.

also Castle Fragendorf should be a 24 vs 24 instanced siege if anyone is familiar to "Strands of the Ancients" thats what im referencing to for that map.
the first post i made on this topic goes more into depth with Castel Fragendorf, my idea is for it to be a guild only premade scenario, maybe in the guild hall next to the flight master is a match making NPC. requirments a guild, level 40 RR60. also me not knowing anything about this castle in the warhammer lore and almost 90% sure it doesnt exist in the Warhammer lore i can only guess its in Averland judging by the name.OddSean wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 8:43 pmHmm, possibly.

The Fragendorf idea is pretty cool, considering the scope of the map perhaps it could be stepped up into something like a mini keep siege? Can consider it as a practice ground so to speak, and a way for that content to be seen by SC-focused players. That does sound awful with pugs, though
I second this if it can helpspace44 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 14, 2021 5:19 am Castel Fragendorf seems too large and maze like to be a scenario, i believe it would be well used for a servers first PvE 24 man raid,(Story) a castel infested and taken over by the skavens and for order it their job to retake the fortress and avenge the previous occupants that has perished in the unfortunate quick slaughter and occupation, for destro your job is to slaughter the vermin and help occupy the fortress for chaos to have a better vantage point for the soon siege of Altdorf....
Orrrr make it like a instanced guild only scenario which works the same as a keep siege, (24 guild warband vs 24 guild warband) 2 rounds destro and order gets a RNG for who defends the first round if the defender wins the first round thats 100 points if the attacker wins the first round thats also 100 points, the second round gives the first round attacker a chance to defend and the same rules and concept applies its a 1 hour timer scenario which rewards 20 oppressor medallions or which ever the devs feels comfortable with to the winners, (200 points max in order to win).
theres also nothing i can find about Castel Fragendorf but maybe im not looking hard enough.
i could expand more into this but im too smooth brain.
possible loading screen?
