    Latest real version is the XC 4 Gamma V2 version. However it is, as you can see, still a gamma version.

    About the vanilla style of the units and the buildings, I disagree. They should not change even more. If they change even more, XC will start to look more and more like a EB or RS or RTR, which I think would be a shame.

    XC should focus on the game play and historical correctness, for that's it's power.

    True. But I think that XC is not about graphic duty, but about game playing beauty. If you want to change the buildings and units, I'd say join the team for they lack, IIRC, a good skinner and are far more working on improving the game quality.

    We would like more people in the arts department for sure, we've got lots of new buildings and nobody to make icons for them (my temp ones goes from acceptable to pitiful)

    Note that while we are trying to depict the timeframe as accurately as our small resources allows, our aim is not to arrive to academic levels but rather to portray the "feeling" of being at the head of a certain faction in this timeframe.

    That said, suggestions on improvements over historical accuracy are always welcome, just be aware they may not come as quickly or detailed as you would like (unless you're willing to jump in and give us a hand of course).
