Yari Ashigaru vs Triari!.. It was so fun to see that. BTW really cool unit worthy of Prom Unit Factory.

Since you'll probably be taking over after Duke John, I was just curious as to whether or not you'll be making a new model set or combining the model sets. Here are some 2004 ones without final skins.

I personally like John's models alot, will you be keeping them?

Well I still didn't received any answer from DJ , He has no options for PMs and He didn't answer i the forums , so is up to him if he wants to pass us his work done till now , Of course that would launch us much foward with the work and I will certainly combine what done till now with what we are making here .....

One think , I am developing a special solution for units to be able to have all level of details possible and them be running on every machine , since the units are much fewer than a normal RTW mod it will be easier to implement this ....

Thank you sir, but they are my models. I actually have some newer versions up over at the org (If I remember correctly). Of course, new meaning newer than those above--Since I'm not working on them anymore.

Any use of the models would have to be under my consent.

In any case, good luck to you guys.

I never said you did.

I don't think you need my models anyway, since you seem to be doing quite well.

I wish you luck in your endeavours, as I no longer play RTW or have any motivation to work on it.

Perhaps you could buff him down a few levels since farmers don't spend several hours a day devoted to mock fighting. Sure farming can get you big muscles, but Mr. Ashi is a beast that looks like he can take out all comers just by flexing his biceps.

Perhaps we could make a wussier looking and shorter Mr. Ashi and use this model as a basis for the professional late Ashigaru and regular Samurai guys.

Also, can we tweak their posture, they seem to be oddly balanced while walking. They may also look more menacing if they held their yari abit forward with both hands.

**PROMETHEUS ts** · October 03, 2005, 10:34 AM

they will use a new animation , as for the bulkiness that can be due to my non widescreen placed option on my widescreen .... anyway they wear a buffy cloth so that increased the effect I guess...also on Ashigaru pics I used they used to look buffed , will post a pic soon ....

**antisocialmunky** · October 03, 2005, 01:49 PM

It probably has something to do with how they carry themselves.

**katana** · October 03, 2005, 02:42 PM

will if you can make the armure become better the higher the xp the ashigaru have bucase they usually (until the allmost the end of the period) have gooten there armor from looting

any way they should have a very simple armor

about there stats
the ashigaru had ben strong as a group but weak alone (team-work of the weak VS the honer-full dule like battles of the samuri) so in regulary mele-when not using they wepons they should be cut down like weed. and they had three typs of Ashigauri (with the diffrent wepons)- spear (will actualt they were phalanks-like pikes) bow (with the descent of the bow-samuri the the sowrd/spear-mele-smauri the bow shoting slowley moved to the Ashigauri) and the arquebus (in a three line) when the fomation is brokin the should bee dead in seconds

they shouldnt have a fancy amore and shuoldnt have the two-sowrds

hope i helped

I wont say anything before i see how menacing the Samurais will be.I think the Ashis will look like girlscouts compared to them.
exellent models Prome.Maybe we could make them little shorter?

Just my note on samurai, though the "experts" can corroborate this: not all samurai wore full do, heck, only the richest had the money to pay fo decent do so my advice is that they should be light-armoured heavy infantry. Makes sense? :wink:
Of course this would take much of the "feel" of the game and in a sense the mod isn't just about similarities to real history but with fun.
