Mod Warhammer Nation: Northern Greenskins

Orc boy bigun done!

Dressed to impress and ready to lay down the smackdown.

I like the color of the shade much better.. use that as primaty and then make the shade a bit darker. Pretty big that bigun, the mace is... well not sure.. just looks more like cotton candy somehow.. love the axe though.
I'd put some blood on the axe myself..easily done with a paint brush with dark red/brown in GIMP

Slow on the sprite front, but I've updated the first post with a plan for the mod. Please take a look and tell me what you think.

Aezeal - warhammer orcs really aren't all that dark, I'm sorry if it doesn't agree with your tastes. I did mess with the mace a bit, it's slightly less regular now. I'll skip the blood, it makes the units look messy, and not in a good way.

I've gotten to work on the bigun attack sprite, and will probably be knocking a few new ones after that. Here's a little something to prove I haven't just been sitting on my hands, though.

This is damn cool, wouldn't I be drunk, I would find some compliment to make. Continue the hard work, someone told me God would reward you in the after life.

Will we have goblin squig riders by the end of this mod? I love those guys. I'm thinking size 2 tramplers so that when they rout they go nuts and attack anything in their way, seems like the best way to convey the fact that they're pretty much known for... going nuts and attacking anything in their way.

For the sake of clarity, I'm using the 7th edition rules for squig hoppers where they're treated as regular, skirmishing cavalry with respect to everything except movement. It makes things a lot less confusing than the old rules where they were a part of squig herds - basically they'll be hard-hitting, fast, but quite fragile cavalry. Squig herd hunting teams, on the other hand, will have multiple, diminishing forms, eventually resulting in a single loose squig.

Ach, I'm sorry to hear that. I guess I need to pass one of the heroes down to the Southern nation, though that is a bit unthematic.

Bigun attack frame is done, I'll post it soon for comments. I'm currently grappling with a black orc, but it's turning out to be a bit tricky - though probably not as dangerous as doing so literally.

Size 2 tramplers can't trample humans.

[TheMenacer]

Would size two tramplers attack things when they rout? The idea wasn't to have them actually trample things, but just to make them attack friendly units when they rout because squigs are known for doing exactly that. I just assumed that the code wasn't for tramplers to trample friendly units on routing, but rather to attack them and the trampling just sort of naturally happened thanks to the size difference and ability.
