    Default Unit Card/Texture

    Ok, now I am pretty sure that this was discussed previously here, but however I searched, I could not find the thread.
    I had a concern about some units' card and texture mismatching. If to speak to-the-point, I am talking about pre-marian legions. Hastati, Triarii, Principes, VE legions - you probably get what I am talking about. For instance, Hastati Maniples Republican Legion I show a green colored unit on card, but it has the same skin for I, II and II Legions. Same with all the pre-marian units.
    So, my question... Is this how it is supposed to be? Or is it a glitch that will be fixed? I thought I read in the preview of RS 1.5 that the units will now match the cards - was that concerning my issue?

    Please answer this, I really want to see some blue colored Principes

    I think this is going to be fixed in RS 1.5.
    "So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son... that's a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show."

    That would be simply grand. Adds to the realism and the feel of different Legions, even in pre-marius times.

    I have a picture here that would be perfect for a unit card. WARNING: If you do not have a sense of humor do not look at this picture. DO NOT say I didnt warn you.

    My son . . . your prayers are answered - in RS 1.5 . . . at least for Hastati and Prinicipes . .

    Wow. I feel like God. And I already had a big ego . . .





    Of course, it was DVK901 that actually answered your prayers. I'm just reporting on the issue . . .

    By the way, in the other instances, notably Macedon, dont worry about. Because none of the units will stay the same for rs2. Oh and by the way, those republican cards will change for RS 2.0 as we are reskinning the Republican army, and doing alot of tweaking to the later legions, correct swords and helmets etc.

    Yeah, when we preview that, LiT will have to write a book and it'll be 15 pages long. Take that, Seleucid!

    SPQR. I cant but help notice that zombie looking thing and I think that it was stupid to put that on this forum. RS has been my favorite mod for a couple months now and I think its insulting to see things like that. That thing for a unit card? Dont be insulting because in the past couple weeks that Ive come here you have done nothing but argue.

    Actually I did warn you not to view it if you had no sense of humor. I cant be responsible for what you think. It was a joke and I will get kicked if I get into another flame war so leave it at that alright?

    if it didnt have squat to do with the topic at hand, why did you post it in the first place?

    I actually enjoy sitting with a nice cookie or something and actually being able to read an entire page of thought-out text, instead of scrolling through 4 posts per page f things like "Yeah. Good idea, team!".

    Hyuk. I think its funny but I think it would be repiticious to see that at every post you made. Also dvk I dont think he meant to intimidate me. I dont get scared by wierd zombies and fighting smileys. It does seem like "moldy humor" to me though.

    +1 rep SPQR for not retaliating offensively. Good job, I'm serious.
