    Default Aristeia - Update 2


    Present:

    UPDATE 2

    Work on Aristeia has been progressing steadily with Nero666 working hard on the campaign map, Zenith working on the in game text and myself working on the units. What follows is a small peak into the work going on in each of these areas.

    1) Campaign Map:
    The campaign map is still a work in progress, but we are very happy with the results so far. The map will be focusing on a slightly smaller area than TTW, and therefore will be larger and more detailed. Note that more detail and new textures are still to be added.


    Aitolia and Southern Thessalia

    Eastern Krete

    Central Peloponnesos


    2) Faction Symbols
    Here is the second third of our faction symbols for Aristeia:


    Heraklidai

    House of Asklepios

    House of Kadmos

    Kikones

    Maiones

    Paphlagones

    House of Telamon


    3) New Units:
    Even the light troops in Aristeia will be given special attention to detail to ensure a high quality result, with all models and textures being hand crafted from scratch:


    Akontistai (javeliniers)

    Although the Amazons will not feature as a faction in Aristeia, they will make a noteworthy appearance as powerful reinforements for the Trojans in their time of need and as rare and expensive mercenary units.

    Amazonon Hippotoxotai (Amazon mounted archers)

    Amazonon Ekdromoi (Amazon foot archers)

    Panchalkoi (Greek 'men of bronze')


    That's all for now. We hope you enjoyed this preview. Remember, work on the mod proceeds much faster when we have more help. If you think you can help, or if you can learn how to help and then help, contact either myself or Zenith Darksea.

    Loved the panchalkoi, but i think that the akontistai gave me a feeling of hardcore. White amazons is what i will use against the enemies

    Don't you think those faction symbols will be fairly indistinguishable when they go down in res to the in game stuff? Particularly the diplomacy scrolls etc?

    We have already made low res versions and tested them out in the game. It is true that you can't see the details, but they are still easily distinguishable.

    That will be the most sexiest mod (that i know as of yet), alone the Amazon units make it worth to download/install and play

    Rightwingers, like in the past the epitome of incompetence, except for evilness where they own the mastership.

    Any chance for this exam? Very low, because the established Anthropocentrism destroys the basis of existence.
