Ooo sounds interesting! if you by chance need a hand, heh anyway I think you've done well, except, I think you either need some more units, just 1 or 2 or some nation summons, just for variability! Because variability rocks! ahem, anyways yes sounds good, I can't wait to try this, is it done, when will it be done, I'm so excited.

Well that's just the stuff that will be in the first release. It's possible they'll get more content after that, although I'm not going to make anything as content packed as Avernum for a while.

And no, it's not done yet. It probably won't be done for a while too as I don't have that much free time coming up. I have about 20% of arga dis done and 30% or so of broken swords. Attached is a little bmp of dog samurai, just for fun.

In the meantime, I've made three other mods which I'm still fiddling with. You could give them a go. Ulm Reborn, Vaettihiem SE and Exile/Avernum.

Ah yes, tried a few of those, except Vaettihiem and since it's made by a fellow fan I now must try it!

Progress is very slow, but I'm still working. I've sort of been sidelined by renewed interst in the conceptual balance mod and making CBM friendly versions of my mods (and zepaths too possibly).

Attached is another little preview, this time of a big ole kitty cat. This might end up being a pretender, or it might be a regular cat demon (nekoni) of some kind. It's for Jomon, Broken Swords.

That's not a cat, that friggen thing is bigger than a Minotaur!

I like the updated info on both of your nations very much. Looks like a definately worthy thing to try out.

It's not that much bigger than the werejaguar. But yeah, it's not small. I'm still not sure if I want it as the Nekoni graphic or if it's going to be something else, like a special pretender.

It's not bigger than a niefel, anyway ;]

I decided to keep the big cat demon as the standard combat elite Nekoni.

Attached is a preview pic of a new commander unit, the Twisted Daimyo, which is able to lead both normal units and demons/undead. This makes it pretty versatile - it's also a scary thug if given the right stuff. These are the highest ranking males in Jomon and even the red Nekoni (previously previewed) fear them.
