you think we should have a different colour scheme for each manipular legion? thats too many units - you'd need to have 3 different skins per legion (hastati, principes and triarrii) - and i dont think we have the slots for them...

[dvk901]

ORIGINALLY, I had different color skins for the Republican Legions (Hastati, etc), but Cherry made me take them out. He said Bosporan and Seleucid needed some units too. He likes them soo much... (throws up).

[cherryfunk]

Well, we could just give all the non-Roman factions 2 generic units:

- Non-Roman Infantry
- Non-Roman Cavalry

And then you could have 456,432 different types of Roman units... maybe even a 'Roman General's Pet Dog'? And a 'Legio IX Cleaning Lady'?

[Face_Face]

Don't forgot about the Roman "Yes Man".
Roman General-CHARGE!!!
Roman General Yes Man-Great Idea sir, nothing could be a better plan.
Roman General-Mmmm might be to close to those spears.
Roman General Yes Man-Damn right its too close to those spears, those damn horses didn't do what ya told em to do, they should be killed for not doing what you told em to do.
Roman General-Do you say yes to everything I say?
Roman General Yes Man-Yes sir that is an affirmative.

EDIT:Man ima post whore....10 posts yay!

[pseudocaesar]

is it models that take up slots or? as in the greek hoplites, all the same model with different skins taking up 1 slot, or is it 1 skin 1 slot?

[dvk901]

There is one 'MODEL' per slot, you could feasibly have 21 skins for it. Each City Hoplite takes one slot, but 8-9 factions can build the same unit. Each Legion and it's Banner takes one slot each (70 slots)...that's why Cherry teases me.

However, to be fair, I think the list should be:

Non-Roman Rock Thrower
Non-Roman Light Inf. (with Jacknife)
Non-Roman Hvy Inf.
Non-Roman Cow (no saddle)
Non-Roman Generic One-Size Fits All General who just randomly says things that don't mean anything, and runs into trees and kills himself.

Sounds like the unit list I'm working on for Bosporan!

(You see, [whispering] Tone is a Roman too, and he's the skinner. So you know who has the upper hand here. Right?)

[rory o'kane]

and he's got people like me who are totally devoted to S.P.Q.R

[pseudocaesar]

could we at least reskin the shields for the republican units? its just too lairy and they didnt pattern their shields at this stage.

[dvk901]

Tone has learned so much since he started that I don't think he's happy with anything! He'll probably reskin the Legions at some point...but that's a long way off. Other factions need our attention first.

i means here...maybe better with here



so Legion I and II not same color,maybe with shield...just better.only my idea..

and thx til Roma Surrectum-team..nice work!

[icydawgfish]

so what is the maximum number of models you can have?

[dvk901]

255

[icydawgfish]

AHAA! So that's why in RTW half the units look the same. But in EB, most of the units seem to be unique. How is that?

They don't have 35 Legions with unique skins and their own unique banners, or city hoplites.

Also if by rtw you mean vanilla then it wasn't close to using every available model.

I'll see what I can do about this with the Unit Cards themselves. Playing Rome myself. I can attest it is rather annoying not being able to tell the difference very easily.

[icydawgfish]

wait I'm confused, you said you can have 255 models, but can have virtually unlimited skins if I'm not mistaken, so why would changing the color of the skin make a difference?

[dvk901]

I can't change the skin, but I can change the small unit cards so it's easier to tell them apart. They won't match the unit, but the bigger 'unit info' card will still match the actual unit skin itself. There isn't any other way to do it.

It will be in the coming Hotfix.
