Pure black also counts as transparent.

I tried your mod yesterday (before your update), and when looking at fire and air servent, the air servant seemed better that the other :

- stealth with glamour
- armor-negating ranged attack with 15 precision (versus a same-damage attack that is only armor-piercing and a precision of 8)

Exept for the fire resistance, the air servent seems much better.

Maybe the fire servant should have some other boost , such as more damage per attack, or a small area fire (unless he already have it and I missed ?)

Earth Servant Sprite: I need to start completely over on it. I'll take a good look at it tonight and hope for inspiration. I like the current one very well, but it doesn't compress down in size very well, and the granite colors just make it too hard to see.

Air Servant Vs. Fire Servant: Shock Bolt singles an opponent out. It is similar to a light crossbow, except it does lightning damage, and fires every round! Shock Bolt does well against armor. Fire Carpet is an area of effect 2 weapon that does very little damage, but spreads it out; it does not need precision as much as the air attack does, and the damage is fire based. Fire Carpet does not do well against armor. They both have pros and cons.

Ok, I missed the "area damage" part for fire.

Looks good as it is then : as you say both have their merits.

Earth Servant sprite is done! Very nice, too, I think.

Working on a 32X32 canvas is really hard. I much prefer the 64x64 or 128x128 pictures. A lot more detail, better color choice, more contrast, sharper edges, etc.

Tell me what you think!

You should update the first post whith the updated version, it will help to prevent confusion between versions.

The latest version will from now on be locatable in the first post of this thread, as per your quite logical request.

I have a couple of small changes I might make, but the mod is mostly done I think. I've been playing it, more or less, for weeks now, and it is a lot of fun!
