It sounds really cool, interesting and fun.
However, I'm not sure if I'm appropriate for the job, I've only created one mod ever (for dom2!) and my drawing skillz are abysmal (as whoever played my dom2 mod can testify)
I do have quite a lot of free time though
So if you don't mind unappealing sprites (or alternatively, ones that are quite similar to sprites already in the game), and taking a longer time (to relearn modding [there are so many changes and new additions that it's practically relearning]), I'd like Fire. If you do mind, then I don't mind being excluded .

[DrPraetorious]

I choose Earth.

I'm really liking those conical Chinese peasant hats.

[llamabeast]

I think Maraxus beat you to Earth, Dr. P.

[Foodstamp]

If they both want to do Earth, that is fine with me. It will just lead to a split of the responsibilities for that part of the project

So we need someone to do Air, and anyone else that would like to participate is welcome to do so as well, just pick an element other than Earth .

[Saulot]

Well, on the plus side, this is an interesting idea. On the down side, it seems like it has potential to not mesh / execute well.

It's worth a shot, and I suppose I could do air. I'm still kind of swamped with my new project, and Dwarf Fortress is not being kind with my time, though I could use a break from both.

If I can't come up with anything too exciting, I'll just resign.

By the way, Foodstamp, I suggest you expand the format / guidelines for the units/commanders/etc., so that the elements do not overly vary in terms of power / balance.

[Valandil]

Hm. What era? I'v edone some preliminary work, but need some guidelines on balance, equipment, and national theme. Also would like a hint as to the other modders ideas so I don't tread on their toes.

Fore example, it seems reasonable that a water-worshipping cult of some sort would have a knightly order armoured in scale mail, like a fish. Scale is pretty poor for late era armour, so I'd probably create a new mail for an LE nation. Same deal with mages, spells, etc.

EDIT: also, PD.

[Maraxus]

It will be late aera?

I've done a first draw now - and I don't mean pictures with that.

What I thought about: Will there be a coralation between the sacret units and the capitol-only units?
I have made the sacret unit available everywhere but another unit capitol only.

teaser: tough, strong units, available at speeds:
slow - really slow - allmost faster when crippled.

Side question: what is the flightsprite nbr. for instant hit, btw? I tried 10000 but it seams to be just "invisible missles" (so it takes unnecessary much time.

[DrPraetorious]

Oh, oops, I thought Maraxus wanted fire That's what I get for skimming.

I'll bow out for Maraxus then.
