I believe that Warlords Battlecry 2 is the latest incarnation, and should be for sale. unfortuneatly its a real time game. i could be wrong, and they may have just co-opted the title. in that case, the latest Version is probably warlords 3: reign of hero's.

the amusing bit is that warlords 2 had a mod that turned it into a battletech game, and another that turned it into a space game.

have any of you guys looked at TWE, the war engine, published by shrapnel? basically a reincarnation of the old Wargame Construction Set. you could always do something with that.

DO looks disturbing...

Taera:
Any and all art and idea suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Implementing the ideas is the easy part.

Quikngruvn:
Hmm... possibly. Those also wouldn't apply to "underground" cities. Perhaps something else could be done with the 3 planet compositions?

Deathstalker:
Multi-player is so much better. Esp. if you are a Wizard. Send your warrior friends in as the grunts, and bLast the heck out of everything in sight.

Puke:
TWE probably costs money...
Lords of Magic is such a crappy game. Found it in a Bargain Bin, played it for a bit, and got sick of it immediately.

Ed Kolis:
MoM is an awesome game. If only they'd stop ruining Civ and try to make a MoM 2...

still thinking about how to handle planet composition and atmosphere, but i have a question first.
When creating a planet from an asteroid field, is there a fixed composition, your home type for example, or is it randomly determined?
Same question for atmosphere.

I have begun to compose ideas for this new mod and will post them shortly. I am about 80% done with my own mod I have been working on for a couple of months now. I will not be able to get started on this one until I finish my own, which should be soon. Feel free to email or PM me about this project. I am looking forward to getting under way.
