'Cluttered' with mods is an interesting way of putting it ;]

I don't think it's a problem that there's lots of fire in EA. There's lots of water too,.. lots of all magic. It just means they're in good company. Anyway this mod isn't going to be done for a while because I have about 5 or 6 other projects in line before it.

In the spirit of keeping the few who regularly read this forum in the loop, here's another graphical preview of Arga Dis (ATTACHED).

Added to the 4 hoplite units we now have mountain dwelling Argan myrmidons called 'blackshields' - they have less armour than Arco myrms and lack the shield bash of Argan hoplites but are still far more armoured than all the other argans and have a mapmove of two due to their endurance and constant training.

You can also see the Sworn Companions riding Mares of Dis which have both hoof and bite attacks - they're man eaters after all. These guys are crazy powerful but very expensive - Arga is not a cavalry nation after all.

Finally you can see the 'slain sworn brother' unit, which is what the sworn brothers turn into when they take lethal damage. They then fight on but die at the end of battle no matter what. I might have gone a bit over the top on battle damage, but hey when you've taken lethal damage and are fighting on regardless I figure you wouldn't look so pretty.

Those sprites look very cool Sombre.

I can't believe how many projects you have on the go! And all that I've seen are of excellent quality, very exciting stuff.

I have to say that my personal feeling is, put Muspelheim in LA, just because the myths about them are very end-of-the-world armageddon stuff. You really don't hear a lot about them, except as pertains to Ragnaroc. They've only got the one real stand-out character, which is Surtr, while the Jotuns are always around from the beginning.

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif Yeah that pretty much sums it up.

Love the gore drenched spears of, I am assuming, the 'slain sworn brothers'.

Awesomeness!!

Since I've kept people up to date pretty much every step of the way regarding Arga Dis, here's a FINAL preview of the unit graphics.

The first version of the mod will be released next week, hopefully about the same time the next patch comes out.

It will include maybe one or two extra graphics/units on top of those in the preview. I still need to make slain versions of the horsies for instance.

Newly added: Red Achillan. Orphan. Gilgan. Sworn Captain Slain. Misborn.

Oh and just from looking at that oh so gold and red preview I've decided to name the nation Arga Dis, Blood and Bronze.

Simply incredible, I can't wait to try this mod out.

Re: Current projects
 
Thanks, I think graphically this is my best mod to date. Ingame the nation looks very distinctive and they are very powerful in melee to back it up. The big drawback is the expense of all these elite units.

Great as always Sombre. Are you using the new sprite extraction for this now?
