The Last Battle “Tarmon Gai'don” is approaching. Hoards of Shadowspawn led by the Forsaken are massing in the Blight, The Aiel have crossed the Spine of the World following the Car’a’carn, The Seanchan have invaded, Legion of the Dragon Reborn has taken large amounts of land, and the Aes Sedai and remaining armies of the Westlands still vie for power.

Shadow Rising is a mod based on Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series of books. I have been working on this for a while now and decided it is finished enough to release as a Beta version. Please try it out and let me know what you think.

New channeling system:
All weaves now take a certain amount of stamina to channel. A HUD bar shows how much stamina you have remaining. When the bar is blue you have enough stamina to channel the weave. If you don't have enough stamina the bar is gray. Your stamina automatically regenerates over time. To channel you will need to have a "connection to the source" item equipped. You get a "connection to the source" when you start the learning to channel quest. If you lose your connection you can talk to the person that gives you the learning to channel quest and they will give you a new one. You can switch between the weaves you know by pressing z, and the weave icon is displayed as another HUD element. The amount of stamina you have is determined based on your intelligence and you channeling proficiency. The rate that your stamina regenerates is based on you strength. The angreal rare item now increases the rate your channeling stamina refills.

Check the screenshots on the TaleWorlds forum post for a look at the new stamina bar and selected weave icon.
