This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
In a land of countless perils and infinite opportunities you begin your journey. A world where the Church wars the Northern Pagans, where trade flourishes throughout the lands, a world where crafts and trades fill the days and wolves control the night.
Basics and Tips
- You can only sell items at the Town Market.
- You can revive your hero at the Farm House or the Town Tower.
- Mana will be reffered to as Inspiration.
- Heroes can only gain Inspiration from "Companionship", in other words from being around other characters.
- You can buy coins from the Merchant's Guild which can be sold for the same price. (Stops you from losing money)

JobsJobs
Hunting
Get money from hunting around the land, and selling the hides at local town markets.
To begin hunting you will first need a Hunter Equipment, whick can be bought from one of the two guilds found in north-west. (To ping these type -hunting)
Hunting can be the fastest way to get money earlier in the game if used properly. The hunting system is simple: if you kill a wild animal (rabbit, wolf, deer etc.) while you wear the Hunting Gear, the killed animal will drop hides or furs which can be sold.
Hunting Bands are formed by players in the early game, which is simply a group of heroes hunting together. This way they will all gain inspiration from companionship and will be able to use Heroic Might ability.
Fishing
Get money from fishing from various fishing spots along the coasts and rivers, and selling the fish at the local town markets.
To begin fishing you need to travel to one of the Fisherman's Mills (to ping these type -fishing), and buy fishing equipment as well as a fishing manual wich will ping the locations of the most fishing spots.
Fishing is a very useful form of income; it is one of the few forms of income that isn't affected by the numbers of people doing it.
To fish you need to use the Fishing Equipment on one of the fishing spots found around the map.
Farming
Get money by buying seeds, planting them and then simply watch them grow.
To begin farming just buy seeds from the Farmer's Guild, plant them somewhere safe and return when they are fully grown to harvest them, and sell the item at the market.
Later you will be able to buy better seeds; to do this you will need to build a Seed House.
Notes: - Plants DO NOT grow in the snowy area.
- Animals will attack your plants.
Gathering
Get money by finding herbs and either selling them at face value or using them for medical or alchemical process.
To begin gathering you will need a Gathering Equipment from a Hunter's Guild (Ping these with -gathering), then you simply need to use the equipment anywhere around the nort, and wait while the user looks around to find herbs. After some time herbs will be found, or not, so you need to look again.
Note: - When the Gathering Equipment is used it will take some time to find herbs.
- Gathering Equpment can only be used by your hero or your wife.
Alchemy
Get money by making potions using herbs and others items found in the north. Alchemy may not be the best income resource at first, but it will be useful. To begin alchemy you will need a Cauldron which can be bought from a Hunter's Guild. You will then need to obtain herbs to extract their properties. (This can be obtained through Gathering)
Founders of the North has a unique alchemy system that uses the properties of certain items rather than the items themselves.
Basics: - All herbs have properties which can be extracted with the Cauldron.
- These properties will then be added to your "Pool".
- The properties in your Pool can be used along with Potion Vials to make various potions.
- Currently you can obtain vials from Caravans and Leonardo the Thinker.
Herding
Get money by raising sheeps and pigs, and later kill them for profit.
To begin herding you will need to build a Barn, and this cannot be done at the very start of the game. Once you build a Barn you can begin training pigs and sheeps which will gain MP or "get fatter". When these sheeps or pigs are killed the owner of the killed unit will gain gold equal to MP of the unit.
Note: - Other players and wolves can kill your animals and you'll lose your profit, so keep them in a safe place.
- DO NOT kill them when they are less than 200 MP because you paid 100g to train them, so it would be a lose of money.
Merchantry
The concept of trade is simple: each good is sold at different values on the three towns. This way you get gold on the diference of price; however the price of all goods will increase when the supply of that good will decrease in that town.
Market Repot: Buying this item will display the current prices of all goods in the town. This item can be found in each of the Town Markets. (to ping these type -market)
Later Jobs
Banditry
Bandit play involves hiding from patrols and running from town guards. Chase town defenseless travellers and trade caravans to make a living. You will become a bandit when you die and have no means of reviving yourself. (this is when you have no Farm House or a Town Tower)
It is not possible to become a bandit before grace period ends.
Tips: - Use the Sneak skill to slip in and out of towns when you need to buy items, or find companionship at the Tavern.
- You will be able to sell items at your Hide-Out.
- Buying a torch will help you out at night. (be careful with the Hide ability)
- You can revive at the Hide-Out.
As you get money and infamy you will be able to build a Bandit Camp, where you can hire others to work under your command and begin a path to become the bandit lord of the north.
Other Jobs
Production Chains
Some items can be used by buildings to make more valuable items, which can be sold for more money. This are the production chains.
E.g.: - Fish can be used with Fireplace to make Meat which can be sold for more money, if it's sold to the right market.
- Wheat and Corn can be used to make Flour at Windmill, which can be used after to make Bread at a Bakery.
Most buildings built by the Engineer are Tier 4, which are buildings that work to make more valuable items from less ones.
Mining
There are three types of raw materials that you can mine, but you can have only one mine; this means you will have to choose which material you want to prospect.
Iron: Iron can be used to make weapons for your units; this is the most common type of material.
Silver: Silver can be used to make goods to sell, and can also be used to make the best weapons if you have Iron Ore as well.
Sulfur: Sulfur is used to make a very valuable good to sell, as well as other valuable items. It is the rarest material.
Screenshots
EventsNightfall
The importance of day and night has been greatly stressed in this map, as many aspects of the game will change during the night:
- During the night all units will experience reduced movement speeds.
- There is a massive decrease of the line of sight during night.
- All wolves will begin hunting at night and will call for their pack if they attack you.
- There are some places that can be entered only at night.
Siege
It's stupid to think that you will be able to crush a powerful enemy town with just one attack; this is almost impossible. To destroy a town you will need to "Siege" it; this is where you stop your enemy from leaving their town by building your own defences around it as you first attack.
Awakenings
Awakenings are when a boss is spawned on the map by a player who has an item called "Special: Dark Age Literature", which can be earned by answering the Fun Quizz correctly. Each of the spawned bosses will drop an Artifact, an item of great power. To perform an Awakening you must seek out "Talia The Collector" a wandering NPC who will be able to spawn bosses if you hold the Dark Age Literature.
Calamity
Calamities are terrible events called on using Special: Dark Age Literature, which can be obtained by answering the Fun Quizz correctly.
Calamities may be difficult to deal with but those who are willing to deal with them will be rewarded with special items; some calamities have a boss that must be killed to end them, others are not so simple. It is difficult to deal with these on your own, so you may need help from others in order to survive.
Some items obtained trough Calamities:
- Heart of Darkness
- Plague Essence
Unsealing
Unsealing is an ancient art of the north; it has the ability to release the true power of an object.
Unsealing can be used to release the true form of an artifact. An unsealed artifact does not drop when the wielder dies, as it is bound to their soul and spirit.
Unsealing Artifact Blades: To unseal artifact blades you will need the Spirit of the North artifact obtained from the Great Owl Spirit Famriel. Simply bringing the two items together will release their true power. Blood Vengeance is unsealed with Heart of Darkness.
Renaming
To change your name type: -name [Desired name]
Companions
Companions reffers to the potential partners in the game, including:
- The Apprentice Merchant
- The Wolf Spirit
- The Sheperdess
- The Alchemist
To choose a partner you will need to find them around the map and use the "Ceremonial Ring" item ability on them. After doing so you will be teleported to the Northern Shire or the Great Church. Having obtained a partner you will now have access to more skills as well as their "Companionship". (To ping the locations of the companions type -companions or -wife)
Caravans and Travellers
Caravans and travellers are some of the many people that wonder the great north.
Caravans: Sell various useful items. Each caravans route sells a different special item; these can be very useful in turning the tide of a battle.
Travellers: Both travellers and caravans are converse targets to try and get a rare item or two. But mostly they are there to act as a feed to Bandit players.

great map,but i have some suggestions:
1.the hitpoints of the gate are really low...you should make some upgrades(like those for the walls).
2.some mines would be cool..you plant the mines,and after some seconds they cloak(like the thief) and they can only be seen by some special unit(or maybe the torch)
3.the thief should be able to create some building,where players go and hire assassins.(the money go to the thief)
4.another building,in which(for very high prices) the players can cast some bad things at enemies(some other poster said something about that)
This will solve the money problem at the thief(it is hard to create a good base),especially if a player allies with a thief,and he build those buildings inside his base...
Oh,and the plague cure should be made from something like 50 plague essence,and 1 plague cure..and make immunity(if you use plague cure on someone,he can't get sick anymore)
Tell me what do you think!

Alright I’ve finished up work on the FOTN official forum (Yes I am well aware its is not up yet), although I’d very much like to keep this one going as fast as it is, the official forum will allow people to discuss issues/ideas further before they are over shadowed by another issue/idea as is often the case here.
Thing is I need a few moderators, and where better to find them than here ^^
So who’s up for it?
Just tell me the name of your account on the FOTN official site.
Obviously I’d rather it be people who have contributed something here, so I know that they are actually info FOTN and not just some randoms.
@thorhunter
I looked into the trade thing and I see what has been perceived as an issue.
While it is incorrect calculation it was done deliberately, ill explain soon, sorry I’ve been busy.

Well, to tell you the truth I'd love to, lol. I'd have to create an account on your site, but I could. Also... Another bug report. Sometimes hunting spears aren't removed from a player, specifically if they pick up an artifact while mounted. Also, some suggestions. I know you've been thinking about an AoE cure to the plague, but how about another 'cure' as well? You could make potions (with the building) and one of them could be a permanent plague cure. It only makes the target invulnerable to it, but it would be nonetheless. It could be like a buff that gets applied, but permanently. Of course, it'd be VERY expensive to make. It also wouldn't work if you have the plague; you need to cure beforehand.

Bandit Bot!!
@Hero_Lief
(The Mods of the North)
I’d love to have you on the moderator team.
(“Leave, and never come back!”)
Yes a permanent plague cure is a much needed item
(Exactly how to I get rid of this spear?)
I have no idea what causes this… it weird frankly.
lol, as a typed the above I figured out a solution to this, ill get right on it.
Announcement:
An awesome new addition to FOTN will be added in 1.12, sadly it’s not Guilds but it is a very important part of the guilds concept and extensions of it, this new addition is… bots!!
That’s right, there is now a bandit bot that works great, it attacks villages, towns and travelers, and once you are a town your self, they will certainly target you!!
Over all this first bandit bot is made at an easy difficulty, it will also replace any bandit players that leave later in the game for whatever reason.
I’ve got a replay below from one of the test runs (With full commentary ^^) on an earlier version of the bot.
Note the replay just shows the general nature of the bots, nothing more, also I attack them at some point…
With this more bots will come very soon, i.e. NPC faction bots!!

I have no idea what causes this… it weird frankly.
lol, as a typed the above I figured out a solution to this, ill get right on it.
Announcement:
An awesome new addition to FOTN will be added in 1.12, sadly it’s not Guilds but it is a very important part of the guilds concept and extensions of it, this new addition is… bots!!

Usually, maps like these are boring when you build or hunt, but in this one, it isn`t.
Nice custom buildings, unique ideas, very reallistic, wonderful terrain, everything is excellent. 5/5.
My suggestion would be another way to get Dark Age linguistics, more unique soldiers or even jobs, and better environments for bosses. I didn`t find any bugs except some typos.
I would also like to be a moderator in your site, I log in 3 times a day and I am active and will contribute as much as possible to it. My nickname is FibSaSk if you are interested in making me a mod.
P.S. Please keep up the great work on the map, I would like to see it playing 24/7 in custom map rooms/channels. I can also help you a bit on it, I have some experiences with World editor.
EDIT: About the mod thingy, I know I haven`t contributed to this site, but I have experience with forums.

Yeah, the white fang really needs to be changed. Also, you need to be able to hit ESC during the tutorial to end it. Sometimes I forget to say -skip, and it's a real pain in the ass to wait so long.

(What…that’s all it drops…)
lol yes tleno has given an awesome idea for what the werewolf should drop, from the start it was stated that it dropping Whitefang’s Whitefang was going to be temporary.
(Patience is the key…)
The odds of the chest dropping the Artifact weapon is the same for Draculara’s “Blood Vengeance”, The Frozen Bears “Jewel Of The North”, and Okkun’s “Burning Soul”, it will drop 50% of the time. Of the other 40%, 10% is a chance to get an absolutely shit amount of gold, 10% will give you an unsealing item, the other 30% will give you the secondary Artifact for each boss.
Also congratz Hero_Lief and FibaSaSk you two are the first two moderators on the FOTN official site, and…um… yea Pale King too…
There are heaps more people here who would do well as moderators, just waiting on your say so to change your status ^^

@Hero_Lief
You know what’s funny… I’ve had to sit through that video so many times while testing these things, just because I’ve forgotten to type “-skip”, I know exactly how you feel, ill see what I can do.

Sifonseal, I think there is a problem with that replay file you posted. It requires a "Founders of the North X" map.

In relation to Domasi's bug report, that's mainly because he recorded the replay with the new version that he hasn't released to us yet. In order for us to see it, we have to have the exact map it was played in, hence the error. Posting some sort of video or something like that to YouTube would be a better way for us to see it, though definitely not as interactive.

I've noticed after a long amount of time, the boss summon buildings (in the cave and forest) disappear from the game.

Thanks for making me a moderator for the FOTN site!

Haven't been on Pc recently to check out if new FotN came out, then when i finally got chance I go check it and all I see is people want to be moderators all of a sudden, seriously what is going on
PS: If people want to be moderators on FotN Official Site please don't go all high and mighty, that's what most people do when they get a chance
PSS: Version 1.11b or 1.12 coming soon ?

im not really sure what jewel of the north(the ring thing) and blood vengance do. and i dont really see why spirit of the north is a possible drop of any boss besides the great owl spirit. also i usually summon the bosses till i get the items i want so its annoying when some speedy quiz answerer gets all the books and i cant summon anything. there must be an alternative. also i feel like all calamity's are useless compared to awakenings that give you stuff and cost less. make a drop for werewolf and get a different boss for the vampire calamity. draculara doesnt need to be in 2 different events.

The Jewel of the North, Blood Vengeance, and Burning Soul are all sword artifacts, which drop from the Ice Bear (top right of map), Draculara (top middle of map), and Okkun (bottom right of map), respectively, and each of the swords has a different kind of magic that makes it what it is; Ice/Frost, Dark/Evil, and Fire, respectively. Spirits of the North do appear to drop from other bosses, but for some reason, I don't think their Spirits will bind with Artifacts to soulbind them. Only ones from the Great Owl will. No, there's no alternative, other than to beat him to the summoned beast, though there certainly should be. Calamities are VERY hard to defeat, especially the plague. In fact, until the AoE and permanent resistance come out soon, it's virtually impossible to stop the plague. If you take extreme measures, I suppose you could, though. White Fang is already getting new drops, according to Sifonseal. Next time, read back a couple of pages at the changelog. Hell, I think it's on this page, actually. And... Draculara isn't in two events, is she? I was unaware.

There are two Dracularas.
The first Draculara is Countess Draculara which is summoned as a boss using one Dark Age Literature. This Draculara has 2200 hp, life steal, and high hp regeneration.
The second Draculara is Awakened Draculara which is summoned along with the calamity using two Dark Age Literatures. This is a stronger version of the regular Draculara and has 4000 hp, life steal, and high hp regeneration. This is tougher in addition to the already ridiculous amount of airborne vampires that multiply.

@Pandaren_God
I mentioned this in my last post, no you don’t get it if you w8, it’s simply luck
Ill tend to any resent post in due time, firstly I need to get these out of the way.
I’ve actually hear a bit about this.
The fact the market values can go into negatives is probably not going to change, it not unheard of where one person pays another person to take something off their hands because it’s become so worthless.
Simple supply and demand economics
The fact is if a product is produced so massively (As Southern Brew was due to the x10 drop rate) you will over supply the market with a very set demand (Due to the population of each of the NPC towns never increasing/decreasing) and the obvious implications of these actions will be the crashing of the Southern Brew market, to avoid these a market needs to be regulated, i.e. items should not be sold in ridiculous bulk amounts.
Obviously to avoid flooding the market you should avoid doing the same trades your neighbor is doing, or you should simply sell to another market, although if they are efficient they will probably cover 2 towns.
With full house it may seem like the markets demand is lacking in comparison to the massive supply made by 8 suppliers, fret not, this will be solved once each of your own towns can consume trade goods (Via various builds, i.e. Inn will consume Southern Brew, the Tannery will consume Furs, etc... etc… )
This was intended to be part of “Town management” along with setting taxes and having a population for your town, obviously this would all be going on in the background, and you could play as you always have, or you can take advantage of various changes to these settings.
@Thorhunter
I know this has been greatly delayed, but here it is:
The reason you found an oddity in the sales value is due to something that needed to be carried over when the stack selling system was added.
When sold an item before the stack sale, if you sold something with 20 charges you would get 19 back, but you would still have been given the large amount of money for the 20 charges (Not the market value but the “real value” (Displayed value or “Trade Fee”) ) this meant that you were actually getting more than you were supposed to.
When I switched to the stack sale I found that trade was greatly less profitable, I found this was the cause, so I altered the trade script to provide this extra gold we were used to getting.
I suppose the right thing to do would be to increase the profitability over all and take this extra fee away.
I intended to keep it like this till guilds were introduced. The reason being, the trade guild increases the rate at which the market recovers and would enable you to trade for greater profit.
If this didn’t quite satisfy you, just let me know and ill expand on it ^^
@I forget who…
(Sold and item but got nothing for it)
Are you sure you didn’t just drop the item on the market; it wouldn’t be the first time it’s happened. There is no reason the trigger wouldn’t activate when you sell the item to the market.

Hey, Sifon, I have a question. Is the current loading screen a 512x512 image, or a 1024x768 (broken into 4 parts)? It just seems realllllly low def for me. Yes my settings are all on max.

The current loading screen is compressed down to 512x512; I figured there’s no real need to kill the file size over a loading screen.
Also I was wondering if I should open the forum now
If I do, I want those guides up real fast, you know who you are >.>

It also seems like you originally formatted the image as a JPG. That's disgusting. D:
...Was I supposed to write a guide? I'd be happy to and I was considering you tell us if we were supposed to, because I have nothing else to do tonight... But I didn't actually know we were supposed to already?
Go ahead and open the forum now. I'll quickly flood it with some stickies and generic guidelines until the content gets in.

This doesn't explain why, when I sold item/bulk, the amount of money floating text displayed was greater to amount I had received after transaction (I can't provide screenshots now, but you have my word it happens).

Just taking a wild guess here but the extra amount was equal to:
(Real value (80 in the case of tier 3) x number in stack) +
(Real value x number in stack -1) +
(Real value x number in stack -2) +
Etc…
Right?
This was intentionally left over to keep the balance in the trade system when stack sale was added which used a completely different system, it wasn’t just the same one copy pasted.
Edit:
@Domasi
Ah right, my bad. I did try running it after moving the map file well away from the war3 folder to see if it would not work without it, still ran fine, I guess I should have tried after deleting it.
I cant exactly post the video on utube since it run for a while.
I guess you’ll have to see the bandit bots for yourselves ^^

But I think this could be phrased better
“Marrige:

NOTE: All wifes have "Affection" which restores some of target's Mana / Inspiration (2 x Wife's intelligence)”

Also the description for Dianna is only half done ^^

Oh thanks Sifonseal for moderator. I didn't ask because I don't have that much time to spend on the forum, but now I'll help whenever I can.
Also, I don't want to be rude, but can you change that skin or apperance on the forums? I don't think it's the best...

I believe he is trying to say that when he sells large stacks of goods, the text shows a huge amount of profit despite the actual amount being in the negatives due to the way the price drops.
Just a suggestion for everyone who reads these forums, don't sell goods with stacks of +13* then the text amount , I noticed that with most goods you get less then the amount displayed by the text around this point.
*Varies with the good and the current market value, for instance, I've seen Alchemy Goods do this with 14 in a stack and with 12 in a stack.

I'm back o/
First, gg for the map, to read the description and all of the versions, it sound great ( i actually didn't tested the ver :/ I'm not connecting to Wc3 anymore, for now ) but, it won't stop me from posting some ideas here
First, for all who's asking an alternative way for dark age literratury, Sifonseal approved my idea of the Calligraphy ( where, globally, we can write some magic scrolls, do dark age litteratury, and maybe even more, by writting them with some
IDEA : We need 2 things to do calligraphy : some trees to make papers, and ink. Ink can be obtained by combinaison of flowers ( like alchemy ) and papers differ from the tree it have been harvested of ).
Another idea, not for the map but for Sifonseal himself this time is to do a notepad or word page with ALL ideas of this topic in it. So you can see if you validate, or no, and you won't forget thing anymore ^^
And third :
I really like a save/load system, because you can show your experience of game, etc...
But... Not only physical ( level, equipment, etc ) can be saved/loaded : you can also add statistic of the player : the number of unit killed by the founder himself in ALL games, his number of played game, potions crafted, scrolls writed, weapons smithed, boss killed, deer hunted, wolf wolfed(^^), calamity survived/enclenched, etc...
I'm speaking of alot of statistics, and all of these could be accessible by a spell in your founder, who can target player, and see their statistic. Then, it open a thing ( you know, with the title and the way to close it at right up, like when you get shared leaver's ally ressources ). So, a new way of playing the game can 'born' : the one who collect all the "statistic" And more : you can also add ""titles"" or even picture if you reach a certains point ( like, kill 10 players and get title "Player-killer" )

First, for all who's asking an alternative way for dark age literratury, Sifonseal approved my idea of the Calligraphy ( where, globally, we can write some magic scrolls, do dark age litteratury, and maybe even more, by writting them with some
IDEA : We need 2 things to do calligraphy : some trees to make papers, and ink. Ink can be obtained by combinaison of flowers ( like alchemy ) and papers differ from the tree it have been harvested of ).
Another idea, not for the map but for Sifonseal himself this time
is to do a notepad or word page with ALL ideas of this topic in it. So you can see if you validate, or no, and you won't forget thing anymore ^^And third :
I really like a save/load system, because you can show your experience of game, etc...
But... Not only physical ( level, equipment, etc ) can be saved/loaded : you can also add statistic of the player : the number of unit killed by the founder himself in ALL games, his number of played game, potions crafted, scrolls writed, weapons smithed, boss killed, deer hunted, wolf wolfed(^^), calamity survived/enclenched, etc...
I'm speaking of alot of statistics, and all of these could be accessible by a spell in your founder, who can target player, and see their statistic. Then, it open a thing ( you know, with the title and the way to close it at right up, like when you get shared leaver's ally ressources ). So, a new way of playing the game can 'born' : the one who collect all the "statistic"
And more : you can also add ""titles"" or even picture if you reach a certains point ( like, kill 10 players and get title "Player-killer" )

Note: Use the link in my sig to get there
@Domasi
Yea sure ill change the appearance
And Thanks for setting up those links
Edit:
Below is the changelog for 1.12 so far, it will likely be up later tonight
Change log:
Version 1.12
-Removed left over items from 1.11
-Bandit Hideout now heals like healing wells
-Neutral Towers now only effect wild animals (This mean bandits and calamities are now more powerful)
-Fixed typos and bugs e.g. misplaced tooltips etc…
-Added new Bandit Bot
The Bandit Bot can be activated with an Easy AI at map creation.
The bandit AI will roam about the map and do as bandits do; this release is a means to test out how the AI actually performs. Note though that these bots are not meant to be extremely powerful, such bots will be added soon, these bandits simply act as a torn in your foot, they will however be a great danger earlier on.
Currently they are set to not attack you at your town unless provoked.
-Fixed issue with boss summon locations
-Werewolves from the Lycanthrope calamity can now ground vampires allowing them to even the playing field.
-Bandit Raiders are now heavily armored and take much less damage from ranged attacks
-Fixed issues with regional price bonus for all items associated with it
-Gatherer’s Post now auto loots herding products too, i.e. wool and meat, making heading a great deal easier
-“Members Only” system added. This makes some new actions (Obviously no serious ones) require the entering of a command (This command can be found on the members only page at the official FOTN site)
Note: This version has no such new members only content as of yet, and it does not have a means to validate your membership in game as there is no need to, this will however be added in the next version
Edit:
Ok new version is up, just waiting on Domasi to upload it here
