XGM: Hellenic world

[vietanh797]

trying to work more
so far the Cretan archer, Ekdromoi and Greek marines is done but I got in trouble when trying to rebalance those unit

-Greek marines won't able to hold a legion for long, don't expect them beat up a legion just because they also have javelin but in term of fighting cavalry they will work out almost as good as hoplite
-Ekdromoi is quite expensive compare to how effective they are when 1 vs 1 they will lost all their troops to hastati with hastati casualties about 70%
-Cretan archer is better than before as they were given a shield

[Britannicus Legion XXXVII]

hey you should give Rome more legions names and and some republic like the RS 1 republic troops and i would love to have some swordsman auxiliary not just spear and light but heavy troops cuz i find when using Rome when the reforms happens Rome only gets like 5 to 11 units to fight with 5 infantry 3 miss and 4 cav and that's it. puts me off use Rome

and i'm sure that the romans had more troops then just that....... maybe you could make and Evercitiety

by what i mane by legion names i mean something like legion XXII germanica or legion XIV itallica tell me what you think of this

[vietanh797]

sorry but the space left for new units is pretty limited and even my new units may have to cut off due to that limit
anyway Rome already got the new beautiful units with face of a warrior not a kid anymore
I still havn't change the Rome's captain cus I lost the model and texture somewhere in my PC

currently I had

Model Table consists of 202 unique Types.
Unit Table consists of 350 unique Types.

not sure but I think I already reach the peak

[vietanh797]

I ask around and the answer limit 255 models in DMB and 500 units in EDU
mean I can have about 50 more new units
it will be the bright side

[vietanh797]

done with all the new units I current have in my mind and also reworked the Corinthian Hypaspist
I think I will need more idea and suggestion from your guys(with historical picture or painting if possible)

[The Roman Republic]

so when your done are you going to create a download

[vietanh797]

Need someone help me to understand how can I pack this folder as a installable or your guys gonna make the shortcut on your own
It is still unfinished and will result as each update will required new game but since quite a number of people want me to release I will put it downloadable as soon as I can
btw this is new Hercules lol

[Athenian Strategos]

I can't see the image @.@

[Hospitallers Kane]

hmm
follow the link http://aegeanart.tripod.com/Exhibits...nd-helmet?i=18

oh and the yellow one

[vietanh797]

that strange
Thebes often use the club as symbol in their shield
in the pic it is Athena in his shield which abnormal since I don't think Greek use their god to shield them

thats just the shield the main thing was the club but that armor is the theban one , the old one anyway the new open helmets they used are horrible

[vietanh797]

ok I will see what I can do
btw I think I have good news for your guys
first is the captain/general of Roman now not a kid anymore(honestly I hate the happy face of those guys in XGM, I don't know who make that faces but they look totally like kids)
the second is we will see amazon female warriors running somewhere in Greek land as mercenary (watch out they not someone you can bring to bed)

[Nikron]

great work man. keep it up. im loving it. btw, any plan to create an illyrian hoplite unit? it'll be cool.

[vietanh797]

don't think Roman and hellenic cavalry use shield that much through o_0
btw the illyrian in my knowledge is 0 so if you want them pls provide me some info that I might find it interesting
if I think they make up the fame that worth to join the other guys then that's it they will be in the list
if not then , well you know there is not much space and they may better let other guys appear

to Roman lovers: I did think about the new Legion for specific area but that will require more work(mostly are add the hidden res for each town and find acceptable model and texture). Most Roman Legion mod i know don't give permission for other to use their work which mean we have to work on a new and it is impossible for us. If you know any mod that can allow me to use their model + texture for their Legion then tell me pls
I will try to see if I can provide Roman 5 or 6 type legion for area like Italy, Greek, Egypt, Carthago, Gaul, Iberia
that will add some spice into the game

[Hospitallers Kane]

news?

[vietanh797]

still looking for new Legion model and texture
I only got 1 now for Italy Legion
need at least 5 more
I also beta tester for another mod so the work will slow down
Don't worry I will try to make sure it look good once it released
I follow perfectionist

[vietanh797]

I just got permission from Tony to use RTR legions
I will install RTR tomorrow and take a closer look at those legions
Later on I will choose some legions and edit them a bit to fit the power they should have

I also decide to remove the Doryphoroi from Greek cities state(the green one still have Doryphoroi) and use Ekdromoi to fill the gap
