QB Battle 19.7

An update that changed some of the battle's inner workings, hopefully there's no difference.

Megaupload: App + Media + Extra chars (update)
Sendspace: App + Media + Extra chars (update)

Added Warhammer's Ephrael Stern, and thanks to Bill, not just the fanmade Balrog from Tolkien's LotR:


But also the Triceratops and LW's Mutant Hill Giant:


Due to a revision of the wraiths' draining, Airi and the other two might be quite stronger now, so watch out for that. Also, renamed Swashbuckler into Lilli and Sarah into Sara, so I'd recommend deleting the "Swashbuckler" and "Sarah" folders.

Coming next: Kal Jerico, Q-Bee and the ninja's gimmicks. Also, Soul Calibur's Ivy is around the corner, so look forward to her sometime soon.

Edit (03/23): Patch for Annelotte not having available moves right at the start: Megaupload / Sendspace

QB Battle 19.3

An update with an unexpected new challenger.

Megaupload: App + Media (upd) + Extra chars (upd)
Sendspace: App + Media (upd) + Extra chars (upd)

There's two more of the Warhammer characters, Captain Leonatos and Eldar Exarch:


Also created a QB version of Ryu (thanks to chaosmaje for gathering the pictures), and added the Tyrannosaurus Rex converted from the Dino Fight series by Bill:


Coming next: probably the last two from Warhammer, Kal Jerico and Ephrael Stern, the Mutant Hill Giant and the Triceratops, and maybe the ninja's gimmicks.

(Also, this version might or might not fix the "scrolling bars" problem in Windows 7 computers, let me know about that).

Edit (03/07): QG Yukimura Sanada was delayed, her new release date is April 28th.

Edit2 (03/08): Fix that should make Story Mode properly playable: Megaupload / Sendspace

Edit3 (03/10): Another fix for Challenge Mode (and any battles in a row, I assume) to not glitch, and probably fixes Capt Liliana's odd "matrix error" warnings: Megaupload / Sendspace

Edit4 (03/14): A silly mistake might have caused some of the media files not to have the "captain liliana_10.jpg", so if you get a matrix error while playing with her and that file is not in her folder, download one of the "media update" files from the previous version (thanks to somagu for checking it for me)

QB Battle 18.9

The biggest update ever, I guess.

Megaupload: App + Media (upd) + Extra chars (upd)
Sendspace: App + Media (upd) + Extra chars (upd)

First off, the recently released Captain Liliana and Branwen (based on LW's Daniel the Pirate and Lizardman):


And adapted from Warhammer Warriors, Kharn and Tyranid Warrior:


And thanks to Bill's help, LW's Oowell and the fanmade Retarius (a classic opponent of the Secutor):


Plus, there's Dark Echidna, a fanmade recoloring of Echidna as her 2p color, also by Bill.

The original Warhammer Warriors didn't have attack modifiers and the matrixes of all characters were practically the same one, so for variety's sake, I adapted their attacks and matrixes from established characters with similar "traits". For example, Kharn is basically a "ruthless champion", so I adapted him from Hathor and Claudette's books, and the Tyranid Warrior is a "nightmarish assassin", so I chose the Skeleton and Melona for him.

Coming next: quite possibly, Warhammer's Captain Leonatos and Eldar Exarch, besides more extra characters.

Edit: fixed Flaming Cherry and Dark Echidna glitching when being disarmed.

Edit2 (02/23): The What is QB? page was updated with the announcement of Queen's Gate Sen Tokugawa.

Edit3 (02/27): The next update will have dinosaurs in it. As you'd expect, they'll be tough to beat.

QB Battle 18.3 fix

Fixed a couple of minor bugs that could happen with several superheroes, and a glitch that happened when player 2 lost a weapon with some characters: Megaupload/Sendspace

Edit: The What is QB? page was updated with the announcement of Queen's Gate Yukimura Sanada and Ivy for March 25th.

Edit2: To be expected in the next update, besides a few more extra characters, Captain Liliana and Branwen.

QB Battle 18.3

Update for the app and extra chars:

Megaupload: App + Media + Extra chars (update)
Sendspace: App + Media + Extra chars (update)

Fixed some minor bug that could happen at tag battles, and added the Gunslinger, from Lost Worlds, and the Secutor, a fan-made character.


The Gunslinger is close to what Queen's Gate Alice would become (though with various differences), and the Secutor is a gladiator who can ask for mercy if he's losing.

Coming next: from Warhammer Warriors, Kharn the Betrayer and Tyranid Warrior (after the Marvel heroes, it's time to adapt another incompatible series).

Captain Liliana and Branwen will be released in a matter of days; as usual, they'll be added as soon as possible.

Edit: from now on, I'll try to remember to add "update" links to the new characters that get added to the Media and Extra chars files from one version to another, as was pointed out in the comments.

QB Battle 17.9

Update for the app:

Megaupload: App + Media + Extra chars
Sendspace: App + Media + Extra chars

Celebrating one year of this program, I added Replays: you can save your battles in 10 slots and rewatch them later.


Coming next: a few extra LW books, including one or more fanmade ones.

Besides, the What is QB? page was updated with the announcement of Soul Calibur's Ivy.

QB Battle 17.6

Update for the app and media files:

Megaupload: App + Media + Extra chars
Sendspace: App + Media + Extra chars

Added Nowa in Story Mode, and replaced Cham Cham and Kasumi's scans with the ones edited in english by Staples:


Coming next: a neat, simple feature to celebrate one year of QBB!

Plus, the What is QB? page was updated with the silhouette of the newest Rebellion character, and the delay for Captain Liliana and Branwen (now to be released on February 10th).
