Sneak Peak: Durlags Tower

[DEV Jlf2n]

The transition to the tower will be on the east side of the area south of Beregost. It will be nasty hard. Just getting there will be rough and you'll need friends just to reach the front door safely. Once inside players will find traps of all kinds literally everywhere.

And yes, you will be able to walk out on the roof. I might even toss out a scimitar.


I also finished up the High Hedge exterior, another area that DM Sin helped with. He has built it spot on with the old video game version as well. Other recently completed areas include Fields of the Dead North, Troll Claws South, Troll Claw Ford, Troll Claws North and the Troll Hills as well as 2 caves for the Troll Claws. We also have Wildelf, Iceshard, and Sin building additional Underdark caves as well.

You guys are the shit!!! Sorry for bad word,but its needed!

It looks great, just like Durlag's Tower from the old game. Speaking of areas though, will we eventualy see other Sword Coast areas like Firewine Bridge, Gullykin and the Gnoll Fortress that are in the region?

[DEV Jlf2n]

Sin already has an excellent version of Firewine in the works, though he has put it on a self at the moment as Underdark areas are needed more. the screenshots I have seen so far are awesome.

Wildelf has also expressed interest in building Gullykin. It would be nice for the halflings to have a place to start.

[wildelf]

Yes, Gullykin will definitely be up and active once I've finished my last Underdark assignments. I'll be glad to build the "happy 'hin home." ^_^

[DM Sin]

Yup the Underdark needs a few more places that provokes pure fear in anyone, regardless of race, level or feats Firewine will be back on the works afterwards, along with the dungeon - which won't be as nasty as Durlags thats for sure, but will give a mid teen party a good run for their money

All in all, we're making good progress and the next few updates are going to be very very awesome. Well all of them will be but I think these next few in particular, thanks to the brill staff and players on the server.

I actually re-installed Baldur's Gate 1 and have been playing it in my spare spare time and I really cannot wait to see some of these areas, When this goes live this server will be an irresistible masterpiece!

My one and only concerns- Wheres all the Hobgoblins!?! And I think we should see some higher level Bandit Hostiles in areas too, ones that will kick us in the head until we are dead. =p

As always this place looks great. Can't wait to see how it plays. The whole server just keeps getting better and better as it gets expanded.
