Mod: Dominions 3000 v0.81 - lots of new indies, new map (using the brand new map commands)

[rdonj]

Personally I wasn't sure the orcs needed any more nerfing. Guess I'll find out soon....

[Aezeal]

hmmm it's probably the old nerves I think.. the blaster and the body armor nerve.

[Aezeal]

hmm nope can't get inpsiration for R'lyeh

but I've adjusted some other sprites orcish ones there is always inspiration for orcs

a sprite for orcish mages
a sprite for orcish builders
a sprite for the new orcish drummer (pretty useless but I felt the race needed it) (summon)
it has 3 shapes, first 12 hp 4 attacks (non AP drum mallet attacks)
2nd shape 12 hp 2 attacks (and the pic has one less drummer)
and the last on is just the drum without attacks, 50 HP and 15 natural prot. firstshapes to first form again.

ow and orcsih mages now also includes a orcish necromancer summons

[rdonj]

Hmm, the drummer is kind of interesting. Does it provide a standard effect or something?

[Aezeal]

Large speakers... standard 100

I'm gonna make a pop type feral orcs, a lil modified stat on shooter, chopper and a fighter a leader and a necro/priest

hmm couldnt'find another pop type with 3 troops and 2 leaders.. those are all militia/l inf/ h inf + com and priest. there are several options with different unit numbers but all include the same priest.. and that is taken. So now one of the amazon poptypes is no more

[Aezeal]

hmm I've made a sprite.. no better said I've adjusted a sprite to fit the orcish flamer. The source is pretty clear but I think it's a huge improvement myself.

I'm not much for drawing persons but I think adding weapons and effects is working out nicely.

anyway here they are.

[Aezeal]

The mod is getting large.. some numbers (I've put them in de dm file too) for those working on something. (are the pirians still under construction?, or those nanobots?)

[rdonj]

Wow, I'm going to have a lot of work ahead redoing the indies to fit in all these new groups

[Aezeal]

well they don't have to be in.. or just one province. and most aren't for space anyway

All are also in new sites so they might just pop up at random
