Race tweaks #20

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Significantly more races provide intelligence boosts (7 of 11) than wisdom (3 
of 11) boosts.  This is aggravated by the change of dwarves from wisdom to 
intelligence (r65).

Also, the races with wisdom bonuses are elves (hit die 8) and hobbits (hit die 
7) and dunadun (easy race).

Further, gnomes are not particularly thematic, and cover much of the same 
ground as dark-elves.

Perhaps a hardy, wise race should be added, or elves should be made less dainty.

A hardy, wise race? Sounds like Ents to me! Give them vulnerability to fire and 
slow movement though... and an aversion to using axes! :)

Waiting for 1.0.2.

Consider adding:
* Ent
* DrĂședain

Both are wise, hardy races, which will fill a needed niche.

Consider tweaking skill costs for elves to:
* Karate 8->9
* Swords 11->10
* Hafted/Polearm reduction in cost?

Consider increasing HD on some weaker races.  Stealth only goes so far.

Consider making gnomes better at crossbows.

Consider making woses better at magic.
