I'd like to start a fantasy mod for Source with revolutionary new enemy types and gameplay elements. Much is still undecided at this point, but I have listed an example of an enemy below. PM or reply if interested. If lots of people join we could make something really cool
Mummy:
Like a shambling Half-Life zombie (or Oblivion zombie or whatever) but different in a few regards.
•Impossible to kill completely without fire. (Though not impossible to cripple.)
•The head, each arm, and torso can be sliced off, and each part stays alive. (The arm will drag itself towards the player, and the legs without torso will too. Legs will kick at player, not a big threat but creepy anyway. Same with other parts.)
•They (and pieces of them separately) can be lit on fire, but when lit they will scramble for water and douse themselves. (If there is no water then they’re doomed when lit)
Should make for some crazy battles. Think about it a little. Other enemies would have same sort of complex relationships.
