About minimum/maximum tga size, that depends. The tga must be one of certain sizes, 32x32, 64x64 etc., but the units can be of very different sizes. You can mod in both humans and dragons, after all.

You'd need the official answer to make the optimal graphics, but if you do them so that they work with Dominions II they'll probably be easiest to import without any insider-info.

Well still no answer from the devs, no idea why

, but I have yet another question...this time somewhat AI related

6. Can we add some "command" for the AI to priorize specific path in research/spellcasting? Example someone gonna add a new nation the dwarves with mainly construction type spells/summons, and it would be good if the AI could mainly focus on the construction tree research/spellcasting. Hope I can get some answers...anyways I already began to work on the unit gfx, I will just resize them when I can get a proper answer from the devs.

I dont think it is possible atm. I'll aks JK if it is possible to add it without too much trouble. There are some modding commands that reflect the magic availability of the nation.

#firenation and other commands will make the AI focus somewhat on this type of magic. Not sure how it works out in practice though. I haven't tried it.

How exactly does the #firenation etc. work? Are there also school-specific stuff like #enchamentnation?

Hey Kris! Thanks for the answer! I know the answer to 1. 2., can you give us some hint about questions 3. and 4, or perhaps JK can answer as well..

4. Nope. Not at the moment.
3. Not at the moment.

Hmm, sorry there. Only #bloodnation is implemented. It makes the AI research and use bloodmagic. Unless this tag is on the nation will not use blood.
