Impressive. That is one TC I am looking forward to. A lot. A lot - lot!

How about sounds and stuff? Recycle the old S:TW files?

If that's the case then using the old stw unit pictures will be good.

Looks like someone's been to art school!

**DavidtheDuke** · September 30, 2005, 04:34 PM

not bad, the beginning even looks promising.

**Solar** · September 30, 2005, 07:07 PM

amazing. those really blend traditional japanese art and modern western-comic-book style brilliantly.

You could shrink them down and use them as unit info pics.

I love the assasination picture. Could definately be used at the picture for an assasination event. Simply beautiful work.

The second picture with the samurai against the tree would be great for some kind of defeat as well.

Great to see that his work is going to get put to use. Would be a shame if it didnt.

**Kscott** · October 03, 2005, 07:26 PM

Beautiful stuff.

Simply amazing art, perhaps some of the best I have ever seen.

Prometheus, judging by Tomte's elevation plan, are you going to add roofing to the walls?

**PROMETHEUS ts** · October 04, 2005, 11:18 AM

In this thread I'll be posting unit concepts for this mod. These are rather rough, so don't give me a hard time about them. :wink:

First up is the Naginata ashigaru:

I wanted to reflect that this is a unit of the early 16th century, thus, he's wearing a rather outdated form of haraate(belly protector), made from large scales in sugake odoshi(sparse point lacing), which was a late 15th century innovation, that really caught on in the sengoku jidai. He's also equipped with a happuri(cheek armour), held in place by his hachi-maki(head cloth), under which he's also wearing an eboshi(cap). All typical attire for the early ashigaru. Furthermore he wears decent kote(armored sleeves) and suneate(shin-guards), marking that he comes from a long line of service to his lord, rather than being mass-recruited peasant rabble(which was a new trend), he and his forefathers has served their lord faithfully for generations, and thus have had time to acuire both status and equipment.

Apart from a sturdy naginata, he carries a doable shotou(which he will never use in-game

), should his primary weapon fail him.
