Description
Download the PDF to check it out.An excerpt from a player's guide I've been writing for Hyrule: Total War, this bit focusing on the Gohma. To this day they are probably my favorite creatures from the Zelda series.
The fonts, layouts, and appearance of the guide is heavily inspired (nay, outright based entirely on) the Official Nintendo Player's Guide for Ocarina of Time: zeldauniverse.net/wp-content/u…
The cover of that guide was the very first image I ever saw of anything Zelda related, and pretty much was my entry into the series. That guide itself is pretty unique as well: instead of telling players exactly what to do it was written as a Historical document, chock full of chronology and lore (I know, something extremely rare in the series these days). As such I've modeled my guide in a similar manner: avoiding dumping numbers and statistics on players except where necessary and treating the volume as a historical document.
Please keep in mind that this is a work in progress. Some of the technical aspects (such as Rupee costs) are prone to change as the game is balanced over time. Some features may be removed or have not been fully added in yet as well. Let me know what you guys think, and stay tuned for the other factions to show up!

Given that Sulkaris, the Fallen Sage would be the Gohma Titan, Who would be the 4th Hero?

How can Mido be a hero to both the Kokiri and the Gohma?
It does not make much sense in the freeform campain.

Because Mido's being removed from the Kokiri. Fado's intended to replace him in the Kokiri lineup.

So Arurodas and Tektites, and the previously mentioned Vitreous, are confirmed to be kin to the Gohma. However, there is yet to be any mention of Digdoggers being related to them. I hope this turns out to be true, as I previously theorized in the forums.

Digdogger seems like a creature that would have a common ancestor with the Gohma.

Ya, apparently Vitreous is referred to as Geldogger in the original Japanese, implying a connection.

Amazing!
Could you do the Darknut Legion next? Or the Sheikah?

I've already started on Ordona Province, but maybe I'll do the Sheikah after.

Um... why do tanks not have the "Heavy armor" trait?

So do the Mothula, Magtails, Crayks, and Lanmolas also fall under the sway of the Hive? Also do Aracha count among the arurodas?

Magtails are a strain of Gohma, so they probably would. I don't think Mothulas and Lanmolas are related though, both seem more insect than arachnid. Aracha are baby Arurodas.

Chojomeka1 In reply to UndyingNephalim [2016-07-20 02:13:01 +0000 UTC]
That makes sense, though I figured that since Mothulas and Lanmolas only had a single eye they would fall under the sway of the hive.

This may be my favorite excerpt, and I'm terrified of spiders! I think it's because we barely know anything about the Gohma and they're nothing more than monsters that want you dead in the series, and here you gave them a history and made them a race of living beings; I can actually see this as being part of the actual games.
