Eyes of Eilistraee: Battle Scripts

Been a long time coming this post, so apologies for the delay. I have so much other stuff going on right now it's hard to keep this up to date.

Over the last few weeks EOE has continued to take shape even though I've not been posting about it. The main highlight has probably been the addition of the double dealing demons quest in act 3 and the custom battle scripts that I've added to the final showdown with the player's nemesis.

For the demon quests I've taken a fair amount of inspiration from the Underdark section of Baldur's Gate 2. The player gets the chance to work for and double cross a number of different fiends (a Pit Fiend, a Glabrezu and a succubus to be precise) whilst trying to obtain a key item that allows him to progress to the end of act 3. It's my hope that the various paths through this quest will highlight the "Tanar'ri Fortress" as one of the most enjoyable sections of the module.

With the battle scripts I've managed to change the way the final battle plays out depending on the tactics adopted by the player. They'll also be ways to make the final confrontation easier by completing various quests throughout the module. More to come on this later.
