Yes, the Cyanne faction is composed mainly of Cerolean/Gall hybrids. Since the Ceroleans are blue and the Gall aliens are green, the Cyanne end up with turquoise skin. The faction also contains Cerolean fugitives that have run away and joined the Cyanne. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...=428039&page=4

Yes, the only reason this would work is the fact that the Gall aliens and the Ceroleans are from the same planet. They are different races of the same species from separate continents on their homeworld. They encountered one another for the first time on the new planet. All the rest are genetically incompatible with other alien races.

Well, the bset question would be what about the Area of Reqruitment units? So if I play as humans and capture the minotaur capital, will I be able to reqruit some kind of Minotaur unit?

You won't be able to recruit them from a building. However, there will be mercenaries available for hire in the areas around each faction. I haven't decided which species will have mercenaries or set this up yet.

With the first Cryptics, I would imagine that, after crashing on the planet, the vessels fusion core or whatever would melt down and explode, with the crew having only enough time to get themselves to safety, having no advanced equipment, and would have to rebuild from scratch.

Is this mod going have a mod folder and its own installer ???

Yes it is in a mod folder.
I plan to use an installer, but I'm not at that point yet.

Faction #25: Aquatan
This faction is based on the Rodians from Star Wars.
This faction is not playable.
Only two units so far.
Credit goes to Dr. Jones on www.scifi3d.com for the Rodian heads.

This faction will share several units with the Ceroleans.
(The Rodian head is invisible on the Cerolean units because it is uv mapped to a blank area on the Cerolean texture file. Only the Rodians appear with this head in game. The Cerolean units will remain as previewed.)

[Smolka]

The "Brutland" faction primarily uses axes, both one and two handed. They also have two handed swordsmen (Brutish Nobles). They use a combination of Scottish and Norse weaponry.

Are the factions going to have faction specific bounes

[Smolka]

Are the factions going to have faction specific bounes

If you mean advantages and disadvantages, then yes. Aridia, Boorania, Dune, Horus, and Anubis will have many units with "combat bonus in deserts". I made a list of some strengths and weaknesses of factions. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...15#post9965715

May I ask something else? What about the resources on this new Planet? Will they be the same as in earth (prob not I hope).

So far, I have only modified the dye, which I made blue. I will be making new resources based on the wildlife (various mounts) of the new planet.

[Gato The Great]

Are the factions going to have faction specific bounes

What I meant is that for example the dinosaur faction giong to have better defence than most of the units since the have scales which is pretty tough and the yetie and bigfoot factions going going to have higher attack than other units

Yes, the factions that lack cavalry (Yetia, Abominia, Terrans, Atraco, Scorp) are going to have more powerful infantry. They will have higher attack than other factions using the same weapons. However, factions such as Yetia, Abominia, and Atraco also lack armor and will be more vulnerable to arrows. They will have some protection from fur/thick skin, but this is not as good as mail/plate armor. The reptilian scales of Sauria won't really offer any extra protection, but most of their units are wearing armor anyways.

this looks pretty awesome
