I don't want to seem greedy, but is there a sequel for the Bahs/exodus duology? I REALLY wanna find out about those vahanatai pillars! Posts: 51 | Registered: Saturday, May 28 2005 07:00 |

There is unfortuantely not, and Kelandon, the author, says that he will not be making it, for a variety of reasons. -------------------- Überraschung des Dosenöffners! "On guard, you musty sofa!" Posts: 627 | Registered: Monday, March 7 2005 08:00 |

Unrelated question: Bahssikava is named in one of the Avernum games, isn't it? Posts: 334 | Registered: Friday, September 14 2007 07:00 |

Avernum 1 when it remade Exile 1 added that as an extra area. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

Bahssikava and Exodus placed a tremendous demand on scripting. The process of making them consumed a lot of Kelandon's time. As said, there are also several other reasons for the lack of a sequel. -------------------- I dub thee... Posts: 1384 | Registered: Tuesday, February 6 2007 08:00 |

It's kind of a pity, though. They're good scenarios. We might see a sequel in the distant future. -------------------- Fear us, mortals, but never envy, for though we burn with power, our fuel is our sorrows. Posts: 1636 | Registered: Wednesday, January 5 2005 08:00 |

Don't bet on it. If Kelandon was going start designing again, that'd probably be the one thing he wouldn't touch with a 50-foot pole. Seeing how Exodus was (undeservedly) panned by major portions of the Blades community, the last thing he'd want to do is invite open season on himself for a second time. There was some conversation on the subject in the Blades chat last December; take a look (But watch out for vulgar language, as these things aren't moderated). -------------------- Hz'ii'zt a'iiencf coxnen a'bn'z'p pahuen yzpa'zuhb be'tt'phukh'kn az'ii'ova mxn't bhcizvi'fl?

Damned shame, although maybe another designer will do a "fan" sequel sometime in the future. They were really enjoyable scenarios... Posts: 52 | Registered: Tuesday, August 8 2006 07:00 |

At some point, I suggested that I should make an Echoes scenario and TM should make a Slith Homeland scenario. I still think he should. :P -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens. Smoo: Get ready to face the walls!

Awww. I really don't get why Exodus would be panned. My second fave (right after bahssikava!) Oh,well. If Kelandon's still about, maybe he could post spoilers for what the sequel would have been? Posts: 51 | Registered: Saturday, May 28 2005 07:00 |

Again, read the chat that I posted above. Near the end, there's some discussion on Homeland (what would have been #3). -------------------- Hz'ii'zt a'iiencf coxnen a'bn'z'p pahuen yzpa'zuhb be'tt'phukh'kn az'ii'ova mxn't bhcizvi'fl?

Do you really think there could be a substantial TM scenario without the rakshasi featuring prominently in it? -------------------- TM: "I want BoA to grow.

Exodus on first play-through (god party) blew me away, it was the best thing since sliced bread, you just could not pull yourself away from the keyboard lest you miss what happens next. On second playthrough things become slightly tirsome. My 42 was my last. I'm serious! I do want a sequal, but with more Bahz and less Exodus in it. -------------------- "Fear that which mortality has rejected" -Galvin Magnus Posts: 942 | Registered: Sunday, October 8 2006 07:00 |

I don't think we should prod Kelandon into making a sequel, we're lucky he updates the library in the HLPM. -------------------- I dub thee... Posts: 1384 | Registered: Tuesday, February 6 2007 08:00 |

It is a pity. But I suppose the name "Homeland" carries too great a curse. Posts: 8752 | Registered: Wednesday, May 14 2003 07:00 |

Seriously, people. NTH has no Rakshasi, Corporeus has no Rakshasi, Echoes : Assault has no rakshasi... The only two TM scenarios where the rakshasi really play a major role are Bandits 2, and arguably Echoes : Renegade (and even then, there aren't exactly many of them). In Mad Ambition, Sabertooth is the only rakshasa that appears in the game. Posts: 363 | Registered: Wednesday, February 22 2006 08:00 |

You know, maybe Kelandon could redo Exodush. He could remove/fix things people didn't like. He is a great designer, after all. But that is all up to Kelandon. -------------------- Don't judge a sentence until you know all the words.

If I could once and for all get rid of the two or three Unhandled Exceptions that semi-regularly occur, I'd be very happy. Unfortunately, this requires access to BoA-Windows, and I don't have that at the moment. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.
