Cool! Real cool! Only one thing...the graphics look like bishops...

NEW! Sketch
You have a point I can change units colors and shading for a unit's sprite extremly easily. Um, perhaps I should chage the white to yellow or something. I'll post a few different versions for comment.

Oh I also had another idea for an attack perhaps he covers himself in fire and cuts through enemies.


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11418]
NEW! Darren
Hmm.



(don't ask me why I did that)


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11442]
NEW! Jeppo
Necromancers and grey ghosts have the monster summon and they can damage you just like the energy blast. I don't think the amber mage are needed.


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11458]
NEW! austonst
I think, just like Jeppo said, there's already two enemies with that sort of capability.
Maybe something unique would work, like leaving a path of fire behind him wherever he walks to cut off Merlin's escape.


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11471]
NEW! Darren
Oo, nice, austonst...


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11486]
NEW! Sketch
Oh thats what I meant on my second post only with a dash sort of movement.


29 Apr 2006 [comment_11501]
NEW! Sketch
Updated with a orange instead of white shirt version that looks less like a bishop.


30 Apr 2006 [comment_11532]
NEW! Darren
It looks less like one now, but what I meant was the stick and the hat...


30 Apr 2006 [comment_11544]
NEW! Morsh
To Jeppo and austonst; Yes, there are already enemies that do that sort of damage, but it still adds variety to the game.


30 Apr 2006 [comment_11551]
NEW! Sketch
Oh the "hat" is actually suppose to be red hair. I don't know about the ruby staff. I suppose I can take another look at it.

That guy looks sweet.

Ah...


2 May 2006 [comment_11772]
NEW! Sketch
Oh I forgot to mention I updated the image to include him turning into a flaming comit to zoom across the screen damaging people.
Perhaps the longer he charges the farther, faster, and more damage he inflicts.


2 May 2006 [comment_11783]
NEW! Darren
I think it would be better if he fired a (slightly smaller) comet...


2 May 2006 [comment_11842]
NEW! firestorm
Army summon doesn't hurt enemies this game, so I wouldn't be entirely surprised if enemys' monster summon didn't either.


2 May 2006 [comment_11845]
NEW! Morsh
Wait - I just realized something! Thanks, Firestorm, off to the "Contact Us" submission form! Steve said that Monster Summon won't be in MR3, but if he's giving it to the Necromancers he might as well let Merlin have it!


2 May 2006 [comment_11847]
NEW! Sketch
Um, darren he is the comet.


2 May 2006 [comment_11850]
NEW! firestorm
How about something like 'it's dark magic, so merlin won't use it, not after being almost made evil last game'


3 May 2006 [comment_11881]
NEW! Darren
I knw, Sketch...just think he would be better firing it.
Err...it's up to Steve...


3 May 2006 [comment_11889]
NEW! Sketch
Darren, yeah well maybe but turning into a flaming comet and throwing yourself at your enemies seemed so much cooler.


3 May 2006 [comment_11895]
NEW! Darren
Yes, but wouldn't that be a little, err...lethal?


3 May 2006 [comment_11897]
NEW! Sketch
To your enemies it would be lethal
and an ember mage is fire-proof
lol


3 May 2006 [comment_11907]
NEW! firestorm
He's a flame mage; he'll be immune to it.


3 May 2006 [comment_11921]
NEW! Darren
I know he's fire-proof, kinda obvious...all I'm saying is that him whizzing around the screen would make him hard to kill, specially as it isn't logical that someone flameproof could be harmed by energy blast while on fire...I've an idea: He can't see you because of the flames, so whizzes around randomly and unstoppably. The only way to kill him is if the fire slowly goes out as he gets tired...do your magic!
(design the flame wearing off)


3 May 2006 [comment_11922]
NEW! firestorm
I would exect him to 'go comet', then zoom in a direction in a straight line, then stop and turn back to normal.


3 May 2006 [comment_11928]
NEW! Sketch
I meant for his attack to go off as firestorm said and he also has to charge up his spell to move faster,go farther, and do more damage.


3 May 2006 [comment_11929]
NEW! Darren
I'm confused...


3 May 2006 [comment_11964]
NEW! Sketch
Um, I think I will try to make an animation to show you just a few minutes. And this will not very likely be very pretty just so you know.


3 May 2006 [comment_11966]
NEW! Sketch
Behold the animation in all its digital glory:
http://www.qrsoftware.com/mer_images/ember_mage_example.gif
I hope that clarifies his attack is like.
And why merlin should have a clone of this spell lol.


4 May 2006 [comment_11981]
NEW! Voronnen
OO YAH!!! yeah, this rocks, and i think its great, and i realy want it in the game!

and merlin should have that spell too...


4 May 2006 [comment_11987]
NEW! Sketch
The animation came out a bit better than I expected. And now I too want Merlin to find a similar spell.


4 May 2006 [comment_12025]
NEW! Darren
Err...that's not what I was confused about...
Anyway, I suddenly understand, suppose this did help...COOL! What if it made him tired?
PS: Ithink that...






















...MERLIN SHOULD THIS!!!


4 May 2006 [comment_12026]
NEW! Darren
In other words, I agree with Sketch...


4 May 2006 [comment_12099]
NEW! MR ROX!
Nice animation! Works well how he attaks i think. U would get him when he stops to charge up. Maybe when hes enveloped in fire, it also acts as a shield?
Also, about the fact that there are other spell-casters in the game already, I think it would be cool if there were a lot of different types of enemy spell-casters in the game... its like the Dark Sorceror's minions!
Thnx for looking,
MR ROX!
(P.S. If they ever invented putting genes into peoples brains, id insantly go for ur drawing ones!)


5 May 2006 [comment_12105]
NEW! Sketch
Thx, but I don't usually wear genes.


5 May 2006 [comment_12106]
NEW! Morsh
Oh Sketch, you crazy kid, I don't know if you realize this, but what you said is kind of a pun (except it's not a pun, I just don't know the word for it)!
You see, 'jeans' are a type of clothing, and it sounded as though you were saying you dont normally wear 'jeans', when in fact you were referring to 'jeans'! Get it?? I do!


5 May 2006 [comment_12107]

I really need to stop explaining jokes, dont I?


5 May 2006 [comment_12112]

I made a joke? <-- joke

I just MR ROX! wanted to have a pair of pants in his brain...


5 May 2006 [comment_12113]
NEW! Darren
???


5 May 2006 [comment_12159]
NEW! MR ROX!
no i meant genes as in the genes that give u ur different qualities LOL! like if someone is really smart then they have a big smart gene! its like DNA sorta...
scientists think tat they might be able to remove/replace pplz genes one day.... get it now?
LOL


5 May 2006 [comment_12189]
NEW! Sketch
I got it the first time but decided to post a joke because I am just that witty.

The second sentence was suppose to be:
I just thought MR ROX! wanted to have a pair of pants in his brain...


6 May 2006 [comment_12232]
NEW! Darren
He, does want that, doesn't he?


6 May 2006 [comment_12252]

Surely you jest.

genes/jeans + dictionary= clarity

I would like to see this guy in MR4 the graphics are done but the attack would require extra programming and might slow down the game with collision detection so *shrugs* move it to MR4 database if you think he might make the game.


12 Jan 2007 [comment_17677]
NEW! steve
Moved, I like these graphics too!


13 Jan 2007 [comment_17753]

15 Feb 2007 [comment_18989]

That seems like such an awesome enemy!


4 Apr 2007 [comment_20129]
NEW! Mr. Merlin
sweet sprite! he could be like a wizard who wanted to join the wizard\'s group but got rejected because he was too young (i think he looks kinda young, too.)

merlin shud get the spell thay have

the gold wizard: check out my "the elements" suggestion.


26 May 2007 [comment_21204]
NEW! 0224123
Awesome! i think u should make it n blue too, but as a water mage.


1 Jun 2007 [comment_21244]
NEW! Mr. Merlin
i think the elemental spells will go to anyone who finds it.


22 Jun 2007 [comment_21677]

i dont know what to say but awsome and great job =).


14 Apr 2008 [comment_23606]

there should be rock ones of these...

Boulder mage! he summons rock golems to do his bidding (and dying) for him!

others? water, ground, grass, eletric, fighting, steel, dark, ghost, pshysic and... umm ice?

itt'l never happen...


2 Aug 2008 [comment_24253]
NEW! Rabid Merlin
cool ember mage idea. maybe we should call him Ruby or Ketchup? maybe we could have a whole line of "Gemstone Mages" or "Condiment Mages"!
Here are some ideas.

Gemstone- Daimond, Topaz, Emerald, Ruby

Condiment- Mayo , SoySauce, Relish, Ketchup


4 Oct 2008 [comment_24520]
NEW! Mr. Merlin
the food mages... the food wizards... the foods... its not clicking. Maybe because food and magic DON'T GO WELL TOGETHER. You don't get the same nutrition out of them.

Brain storm: make the wizards fat, like HUGE!! maybe this will click after all...


6 Oct 2008 [comment_24548]
NEW! Hobbes
And they could throw food at you and just claim to be mages!!!!!! lol, that would make me laugh!


21 Oct 2008 [comment_24639]
NEW! Sketch
Are you trying to turn my mages into some fat pie mages or something


23 Oct 2008 [comment_24660]
NEW! Hobbes
No no no, we were just joking about a different kind of mage altogether. I personally would hate it if your mage got changed.


20 Feb 2010 [comment_27770]
NEW! crazymerlinman321
this is a great idea but we have to be careful not to put alot of wizards or mages in the game beacuse we already have black wizards, ghosts, thundermonk, dark thundermonks,green wizards and now of course ember mages still a great idea though


21 Feb 2010 [comment_27782]
NEW! megaman4ever
The game is about Merlin, the great Blue Bomber(get the cliche?), so of course there will be mages. Plus, all of those are on different teams.


21 Feb 2010 [comment_27786]
NEW!
Dear Steve, I hope you make the morph spell somewhere in the realm of a high priority so this could go in ;)

I'm thinking he morphs whichever of his friends into the comet for a short while. Maybe sends the unit out of harms way a little?


21 Feb 2010 [comment_27790]
NEW! crazymerlinman321
Ya but could u imagine a bunch of power blasts flying around the screen.Im just saying there should be more monsters and beasts.


18 Apr 2010 [comment_30667]
NEW! Erik Rodriguez
If Merlin wants to have the spell for that, there should be some kind of a spawning Pyro Guaridan or somthing.... that should spawn ember mages


20 Apr 2010 [comment_30761]
NEW! Erik Rodriguez
If you guys want to have the ember mage spell then check out my idea,Fire Circle,check it out,it came out today...


21 Apr 2010 [comment_30787]
NEW! crazymerlinman321
yA i saw it is pretty cool but i don't want too much fire in the game.


21 Apr 2010 [comment_30846]
NEW! Erik Rodriguez
we dont have much fire in the game... i checked this is the only fire based thing i think


21 Apr 2010 [comment_30871]
NEW! crazymerlinman321
yA but we have the fireball weapon,the fire,the ember mage.But i do't have a problem with these things

We have the soldiers that explode into fire.
