Talk:Super Robot Wars/V/Deployment Chart

From Silverclaw to Jade Knight

Hello Jade,

First of all I applaud your attempt at making this page but I'm afraid your work is going to run into a number of problems.

However, it seems like you assume there is a simple trigger for reinforcements. Unfortunately, that is not the case. I actually have compiled a nearly complete (I think) list of the events in V and it is much more complicated than that. There are usually 2 or 3 porssible triggers for an event. For example, on scenario 13 you say "Shoot down enough dragons" but it is actually "Defeat 4 dragons OR Turn 4 starts". And that's a simple case. Scenario 7 has 3 possible triggers for reinforcements : Turn 4 starts, or Yamato moves within 14 squares of goal, or Le chevalier's HP falls below 17500. And it can get a lot worse than that. I seem to recall scenarios with up to 5 or 6 triggers, several based on various enemy HP.

Of course if you want to keep at it feel free but please be aware the info here is complex and needs to be very thoroughly researched in order not to miss anything. Putting forth incomplete information might actually confuse some players rather than help.

I have applied formating styles to your page. First of all to scenario names so they match the standardised styles used in the complete flow chart which is now the standard for chart formating. Secondly I have revamped the way you present reinforcements to try to improved it's readability. This notably includes coloring the line headers for allies and enemies to make it clearer. This may not be to the liking of all, I think it should be discussed on Discord (I really urge you to go there on the wiki sub-channel). It is however extremely easy for me to remove that particular edit throughout the page (I can do it in less than 1 minute :p) so that can be changed if need be.

However, I still think there is a lot of margin for improvement regarding readability. Feel free to check things out and see if it can bring added clarity and remember Discord is a good place to ask questions and to get other contributors' opinions.

If you have any questions contact me on this page or better yet on Discord. I'll try to keep an eye out.

Regards

Silverclaw
