Btw some more suggestions

Bases:Aim for a mausoleum and crypt like feel to some and for others aim for something like a spiderweb.

Troops:For the Troop Small try and make a frankenstein like monster, IE a Azlokian pieced together from various parts, with extra arms, and whatnot. No clue for the others.

Mines:These are spiders, so the mines should be globs of web more or less, as Azlokian mines are designed to cripple a ship and allow an Azlokian battleship to swoop in and finish it.

Fightes:I dont know, but for at least one of these, base it off the Ilwrath Avenger.

^_^

How's this? It's a monolith like structure.

Dude very nice. Just the webs dont fit, too bright! ^_^. Try darkening the webs, if it doesent work, just drop the webs, we dont need them. The ships are still very nice ^_^

And when i said webs i meant lots of small ones that make big ones ^_^ but this works too, or if it doesent no biggie.

EDIT:ME NO SPEEEL ^_^

I've since went through and darkened and translucified( It's a word ) the webs and reshaped them and used lots of smaller ones, though they still lok like cob webs. "Cobwebs" were sort of the best I could do with doga now(they are irregular parts, ears, noses, rocks, ect. with the "net 1" texture, it leaves a see through gap in between the strands), but I think the new web look is better. Also I've played around with the "live" race pic, see what you think and post your comments as to where I can improve.




I think I can do better with the "face" the fangs are hardly noticeable, I may make them a lighter shade of grey. The "dead" pic will be translucent, like I said so you can see "stuff" inside it and more a lighter grey.

[EDIT]I forgot, for troops I was think of that for the basic infantry, one of those with mechanical arms for the light troop and, you know the Protoss Dragoons from Star Craft? I'll make a mechanical bottom half and add stuff on that for troops bigger than medium, like a scorpion tail or something, Like those Cyborg Reaper things from Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun: Firestorm.

Ooh! Now THOSE are what the Ithkul ships should have looked like in MOO3! Instead they get these wavy blue ships that are COMPLETELY out of character! What do they think they are, Trilarians?

bump. I got the "Dead" race model done, most of the combat classes, the bases, the baseships, the colony ships, the fighters, the drone, the satellite, the mine, I'm doing the Worldship now. All that's left is the barge, resorce ships and the flag. how do you want the flag and the missiles to look?

-The Religious trait is split in two, a Light(defensive) and Dark(offesnive).
-Primitives and if im motivated enough Pirates and Nomads.
-A slew of new components for the base tech tree.

If you have any ideas or work tosubmit dop me a line.

don't know why light has to be defensive. justice, after all, includes the concept of capital punishment.
justice - just. getting what that person deserves, good or bad. so, the dark tech would be indrescriminate and the light tech would be specific. neither of those should be played by players who can't role-play.
