Well i was watching that recent happy tree friends episode (http://htf.atom.com/index.php/episod...on-tiger-bomb/)

And i thought: Would it be possible to make a total war mod off it?

Post your thoughts ppl. I need to know if something similar is possible. Preferably with gore. Lots. And LOTS. Of gore.

How would you make a TW game out of that ?

make a bunch of 3d models of cute cuddly things. BTW i noticed the unit models tend to change to their low quality version when dead, so that could be the gory part!

Problem: the lower LOD are used for dead bodies but also for distance. So your cuddly things will look like a gory body part from medium distance. Here's a possible solution instead: name one body part that is static (not requiring a Skin modifier) as a weapon, such as primary weapon or secondary weapon. Weapons are removed upon death. So if your cuddly creature has "primary weapon" as a head, while the actual model concealed inside that head is a bloody stump, then during death, the head (primary weapon) is removed and you get a corpse with a bloody headless stump. You can't add effects to death though.
