[Raiven]

and yes the old medieval wall and towers will gone before release, its only a picture of progres

Tell me this is joke!!? Do I see custome walls for city???

[toopers]

you do, and you see cannons on the wall! and I think they are willing to give out tutorials to make it possible for everyone to change it.

[el Cid]

That's frickin' awesome!

[Jean=A=Luc]

omg its leik in d' moovee!

[el Cid]

What'd you say?

[Menhad]

I believe he said "Oh my god, it's like the movies!"

Wait, does this mean custom settlements!

[OfficerJohn]

I THOUGHT THE TATW TEAM STARTED WORKING ON SOME CUSTOM SETTLEMENTS SEVERAL MONTHS AGO!
I even remember pics and lots of discussions and everything and it was a huge deal... what happened?

[el Cid]

Ow, OK.

Yes this means custom settlements though changing a tower will be a little harder than Minas Tirith imo.

I don't remember any pics...

There was something about changing settlement skins though...

patch 1.4 preview?

New Settlements and Reskins

- New Castles for all orcish settlements (based on Teutonic order castles)

• no civilian buildings
• no farms
• a lot of space to fight in the castles

- Minas Tirith reskinned

Nice
Lets send these foul creatures into the ABYSS !splat!

As far as i know replacing buildings or walls is relatively "easy". But placing a new building at a new point is hard.

That's it
The TA team's plans are still dealing with custom settlements, but as far as I know "we" are waiting for the tool wich is currently under development and hopefully succseeds...
Changeing the skins of towers or walls isn't very hard...D_A even already made ortahnc out of a tower or cathedral or what do i know (am too lazy to search the pic) but the problem is to make a complet new settlement...
you can more or less just replace a existing building with a nwe one, new skinnned etc...
but to make a custom settlement we would also have to change the places the buildings have and also the pathfinding wich is really hard...
small things would be changeable, but we still wait to be able to "really" change something...

btw.: i am glad to see this pics, great news, if we get a minas tirith one day, it is very great to know we also get trebuchets on it's walls

Ithink trbuchets are gonna be a bit more difficult than cannons although i do like the comment about hoe the ta team are going to like this

Why should there be a difference?

[Myoria]

Why should there be a difference?

because of the trajectory of the missiles - cannons fire more or less flat but trebs fire in an arc.

That woould make things easier imo.

I've always wanted to put siege equipment on the walls
