Airborne Combat

Recommended Posts

In game, currently, there is melee fighting and spellcasting and mounted combat and spellcasting. However, I have not seen airborne or shipborne combat. Imagine this scenario, your character is captain of a dweomer skyship hurling fireballs at a rival captain on a different skyship. Throw in flying and/or parachuting soldiers, a dragon (Akatosh), and ground bombardment and you have a scenario new in Oblivion. Include the mod, "Burning Items" and you could have burning ships all over the sky. All of these ideas have been created but have never been tied together. Would it be possible to create a quest mod utilizing these ideas? Obviously, there would have to be modifications to the mods I listed and more besides. Does anyone have any ideas?

What about fights under water?

Would be cool, but wouldn't take that long either ;D...

 

I think the bombardments and the parachute are a difficult thing to realize... especially the last one.

It would either be impossible or very time consuming, in which people rater use it for something else or another game.

It would better fit fallout.

 

If you mean the big yellow/gold dragon at the end/akatosh kind of dragon..that's not possible. It is a image, not a creature.

How about this: A modified Dweomer Skyship as a movable lair for a powerfull Undead creature and the only way to kill the monstor is to board the ship from the air or attack from the air from the back of a flying mount (Akatosh Dragon). Might make a pretty good Quest for both. I am surprised that there does not seem to be any truly airborne monstors in Oblivion. Even undead creatures, such as Liches, and Ghosts do not have true flight capabilities and merely hover about dungeons. If these creatures had flight capability then they would certainly be more stealthy and dangerous. As for parachutes one is actually included in the Dweomer Skyship and it makes for a very good ride. The Dweomer Skyship actually can bombard creatures on the ground and I was thinking that it could be modified to bombard cities, roads and towns which would increase the quest difficulty level. Also since it would be movable that too would increase the difficulty(as in a chase). All of this could of course just as easily apply to sailing ships. Again Oblivion has very few underwater monstors although WOGS do come to mind. How about an evil race of Sirens and Tritons to populate the seas? I have heard of the Midas Nuclear Bomb...never used it...altho I have used "Hilarity" and some of those spells might as well be nuclear.
