The Glaive Can Bounce off ANYTHING. Using NO REGIONS!

The Glaive does damage to enemy units, passes through allied units, and can be enchanted to cause status effects! Credits if you use this spell please, I worked hard on it.

Pretty Good Spell but....not heplfull to me :?
Looks pretty nice:
+It bounces of walls, trees n other stuff
But:
-Its slow
-You cant have more than 1 glave at the time
TOTAL: 3/5
but can it go over a deep cliff?
please people stop b!tching about this... Ok first koj you should have given creds to ark for being the first to sucsesfully make a bouncing glaive, yet koj should have to because its re-vamped for the better and done from scratch so technicly he owes no rights to ark, but i think you should at least say "special thx for ark for giving me the idea to create this spell" or something related to that. 8)
What did I brag about?
Sorry ark but it seems you're allways bragging about one thing or another, in my view
Ok. It is much better than mine in some ways, but I have a few suggestions, that will improve the visuals. Firstly, make the glaive a ground unit. This will keep it from going really high up when it gets near the wall, but turn its collision off when it is created. This way, it will still go over things and not be stoped by anything. Another suggestion is the blade's speed. Maybe you meant it to be slow, but it would look much better if it was fast. A units top speed really isn't fast enough, which is why I used the slide method by moving a unit periodicly. You could do this, but it may take time changing things. BTW, it was very clever what you did to solve the problem with the walls. I have no personal grudges with you or anybody else, I just had a crappy week end, and when I wanted to test that spell the other day and it didn't open I just lost it. As far as I'm concerned, you are master of the bouncing blade, and you should stick with improveing it. All I ask is for alittle credibilty for "reviving" the idea of the spell atleast, and possibly giving you something to work off and improve upon. Good spell...........................5/5
"Just because Arksword is a good spell maker doesnt mean his idiotic comments go unnoticed." And as for you Dr.Nitro... my comment was not exactly idiot, I was requesting some credit for something that was alittle too similar to what I did. I don't want all the credit, because I didn't even make it, and to tell the truth, I'm pretty sure I woudn't have come up with that idea for wall bounces like Koj did, so hats off.
And one more thing (very long post...) if you ever need any help or have a problem with making something Koj, or maybe you want a way to do something with normal WE that you can't figure out to do without WEU, ask me, and I'll do my best to find a way.
i think this cool! :) i give it a 3/5
Just because Arksword is a good spell maker doesnt mean his idiotic comments go unnoticed.
Alright... I must agree that this is an awsome spell Kojiro. I am still mad on you because of the reflect stuff but this is even better than Arksword's so you have all my respect for this spell. Good job! 5/5
Stop flaming Arksword. He's ten times better then you in spell making
When testing this I found a bug: Once there was a little "hole" in the tree wall which the blade came through and at the end of the map it gave me a fatal error...
I like! 5/5, and Arksword, i dont think this idea was unique enough to have a copyright on it, its like trying to say all fire moves are yours.
Alright, first off kiddo, its not your idea. People have tried to emulate this sort of spell in the past, its not your ungodly innovative idea. Its not. I've been wanting to do a spell like this for quite some time, along with a boomerang spell, which has already been done, but I'm not going to give credit to them if I make one on my own.

Wanna know why? Cause I did it on my lonesome, formulated my own ideas, and just because someone got to it before me means its their "original concept"? I don't think so.

Grow up little boy, and stop being so jealous. As soon as you say one creditable/constructive/non-idiotic thing, I might start respecting you agian, but until then, keep your flames to yourself whiner.

P.S. You're described to me as one word: Disgusting.
Credits if you use this spell please, I worked hard on it.
Give credits to you!? You've done 3 bouncing glaive spells and haven't given me credit for the goddamn original idea. I've had a few people that have been making many things based exactly off my stuff, without giving me credit, and now it's getting annoying. I'm pretty pissed right now.
Alrighty, I completely revamped my bouncing glaive system... And here are the changes.
Features:
+ Completely in Normal GUI, easily modable.
+ Bounces off Trees, Enemy Units, and Cliffs.
+ The Glaive returns when it has bounced a certian number of times.
+ The Glaive can be enchanted to cause simple status effects.
+ You can now target the direction of glaive launch, instead of it launching in front of you.

Bugs:
- I can't make the glaive look any different when I add enchantments to it, for some reason.
- I can't increase the glaive's movement speed, as it is a regular unit, with maxxed movement at 522.
- The unit must be flying, unfortunatly, so it begins to scale cliffs until it gets within close enough range to bounce from them.

The solution to wall bouncing was so simple it's disgusting, but I figured it out and that makes me happy. Try it out folks, I promise you'll like it... ...to some extent. Credits go to me please, I worked hard (but not too hard) on this spell.
Post your feedback and bug issues. Thanks.
