    There will be an update before christmas, with first faction units roster preview. Unfortunately Im still learning skinning and nobody else on the team helps with this part of modding, so it is going slow. With the upcoming preview I will edit the first post which is currently very much outdated.

    I've been looking through this thread and I have to say that this is very interessting. The world map looks fantastic and it's good to see a 'small' mod being so active in development. Good luck with your effort.

    Thanks mate, the mod itself is not going to be small, though I guess its that you mean its not a 'professional' modder team effort. Despite that, the ideas for this mod are pretty big as its a total conversion mod, set in the universe of Forgotten Realms (an AD&D world), on a continent which allows you to take control over a very wide variety of factions resembling similarity to such different cultures as:
    - medieval europe
    - middle east
    - ancient egypt
    - ancient babylon
    - ancient greece
    - elves
    - dwarves
    - halflings
    - orcs
    - undeads
    - good and evil mages
    and much more.

    More specific news will be tomorrow with the coming update.

    Cheers mate. I was really doing my best to make them look decent, Im still only learning skinning. When I get better, I guess I will do them quicker.

    BTW there will be another preview about some unique features of the campaign. The units are one thing but we are working on the characters - the campaign is called Heroes of the Forgotten Realms and the aim is to have a lot of rpg features. I dont want to say too much now, it will be explained in a couple of days.

    The 'special features' preview will come later than I estimated. Thats because Im having problems with some of the features, and until thats solved, the preview will have to wait.

    FYI This mod needs help of some modders, Im only a modding student and other members of the team are mostly researchers.

    I will be boring to say we (the mod team) need modelers and skinners, but thats the reality - we have nobody who can do these things well enough. We need scripters, coders, we need any help. I said I will learn anything that I need to learn to complete this mod, and I guess I will just have no other choice - but if anyone else would be interested to join and help that would be great and ofc. the mod would be out sooner.

    Thank you so much for being so willing and trying so hard to make this mod. I know you have many researchers already but I would be thrilled to help out with that myself.

    Cheers for the kind words! Great that you want to help. Yes we have many researchers but not everyone is always available, and there is still lots of things we haven't researched yet, or not finished researching. Any help would be welcome.

    Some work in progress - First Sword Infantry:

    Old post I know but I have an answer.

    During the time of troubles Torm(demigod at the time) took on Bane in single combat killing him. Torm himself also died due to the wounds he suffered during the fight but since he was so pious and unrelenting in doing what he beleived the right thing Ao (The overgod creator of the gods known for never interfering in the works of gods and men) was moved by his sacrifice and ressurected him making him into a minor deity and thus forming The Triad with Illmater and Tyr. Both Torm and Illmater are underlings of Tyr.

    I know
    (except that Ilmater and Torm are Tyr's underlings. I thought they were equal in power. I don't like the thought of Torm being someone's underling(except Ao's) )

    PS: No comments on Vladyvid's great skins?

    The skins are excellent. Are those purple dragon knights? Ao is also known as the absentee god.

    Purple dragon knights are known for being leaders. Would it be possible for certain factions to have purple dragon knight officers. You know how each unit has a standard bearer and an officer just replace him with a purple dragon knight. I don't know which factions that would be though.
