IB 2: AFRICA VANDALORVM II DISCUSSION/PROGRESS

[Riothamus]

Thanks guys

-Ostrogoth general on the campaign map (WIP)

[stevietheconquer]

great looking general

[midnite]

currently

Trying to find/design some new shield patterns for the ostro cav units.
Did an overhaul of the legion merc unit textures. Many now bear more resemblance to the osprey book roman units. Made more texture changes to the ostro bowmen. Added a germanic merc unit primarily for the "barbarians" Added a barbarian foederati unit primarily for the romans and roman allied factions.

Making overall steady progress.

And a final texturing of some of the Ostrogoth strat models..notice the crazy eye on the bird banner
-I may need to next go over the Hun strat models a bit...

[ATN]

Woo! The crazy eyed bird! WOO!

[midnite]

finished ver 2 of the wooden fortification textures - half of the "fresh cut" log textures have been replaced by more "seasoned" log textures.
(comment from one of the fan posts influenced me to make some changes)

[Riothamus]

Re Did the Huns Banner, Strat Models- Generals and Captains thus far:
-May try and add the bow but would need a new model

mauri fighting romans


note: the original moDels and textures are from our coop with the EOR mod. I made several changes to the models and unit textures and this is what I came up with.

WOW Great work midnite

[midnite]

do some re-texturing work to the huns. Mauri now have a camel unit and the Romans now have a taifali horse archer unit.

Hm, interesting. I look forward to seeing the upgrade. To be honest, the Vandals campaign never impressed me all that much--it just seemed like a reskinned MTW. But then I gave Britanniae a shot, and it was amazing. Very atmospheric, well designed, and the music always helps. If AV is getting a taste of the same thing, I'll be very happpy.

we are trying to bring all the improvements of conquestus to vandalorum. New factions to play, improved textures and models, I believe music and other improvements. Rio can expand on this.

[midnite]

added more units to the ostrogoth faction. Looking at expanding the alemanii and visigoth factions

[midnite]

added mercs basically to all the factions except the huns
touching up a few graphics on units and camels
