Formation Builder

Type your formation, your options, then click the "Generate" button:

New! You can use the upcoming mercenaries too: Odysseus (syntax: Ody or Odysseus), Sheriff (syntax: She or Sheriff or Christine), Valkyrie (syntax: Val or Valki or Valkyrie, etc).

Documentation

This basic Formation Builder generates pictures that you can use everywhere on the net (forums, blogs...).
It uses exactly the same syntax as the [formation-picture] tag on the Atlantica-db forums.


Syntax:

Basically, you type your formation using an intuitive way. An example is better than a long explanation:
Northern Viking-Instrument(M)-Spartan
Oracle-Elementalist-Empress
Inventor-Monk-Exorcist
You don't need to type long names, as the parser can recognize usual abbreviations and nicknames. The previous formation could be writing like that:
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa
Ora-Ele-Himiko
Inv-Mon-Exo

Options:

You can add the following options on the 4th line (one letter = one option):
  • F to use a Female main character instead of a male
  • H to use Hero-grade pictures for the mercenaries
  • S to generate a Small picture instead of a big one
Examples:
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa
Ora-Ele-Himiko
Inv-Mon-Exo
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa
Ora-Ele-Himiko
Inv-Mon-Exo
fh
NVK-musi(M)-spartaaaaaaa
Ora-Ele-Himiko
Inv-Mon-Exo
hs
No option:
 Female+Hero:
 Hero+Small:

Note: the F option has no effect on Small pictures


Additional Information:

  • This basic Formation Build is designed to be an alternative to the AOP's one. I do know it's much less polished, but does its main job (image generation) very well, using less resources for the server.
  • Except Christine, all known mercenaries are handled
  • If you expect further development of this tool, you can use the Support page
