Work in Progress - Super Civ Scenario

No Siegfried or Shtarker in Chaos? There should be a Mr. Smart in there too, for good measure.
 
KA points out an inadvertent bonus to this terrain: fire effects look great on it. When a building/city goes into disorder (or "plague" in his example, from the looks of it), it looks as though it's caught fire, and when the Volcanoes/industrial areas do their thing, it looks like smelters working overtime.

Not the plague animation in fact it's the Civil Disorder in the screenshot. It's just that I'm using Vuldacon's Enhanced fire animations.

For Plague I'm using a Search Light (bat signal anyone :)). Plague's are Base Infiltrations which places your building under Red Alert.

I'm doing a sort of pyramid:



Would it be of any use to this?
(more pics on the same project in this post)
 
Takhisis I don't need a Pyramid but I do need some of these: :please:

I'm using the Search Light from NavyDawg's Space Opera scenario which he made for We Love The King animation.

I thought it fitted well as replacement for the plague in this scenario which is rebadged as a Base Attack/Infiltration.

The Search Light spins round 360 degrees and there's a beam of light from it - it's a bit hard to see on my screenshots and particularly with that city set. It would be very cool if it did look more like a Bat Signal!
 
I find it very inspiring that TCM is showing an episode of Batman (starring Adam West) followed by an episode of Sledge Hammer every night.
So, about your r(t)equest list:
I'm spoilering and thumbnailing them whenever possible because it's reeeally long otherwise :)
Holy Google Image Searching, Batman!

Nice picks Takhisis thanks for doing that. Here's my choices

Accountancy(1 or 4)
Bonus Powers(1 or 4) - fun selection :)
Comms(1)
Computerisation - this grants Mainframes and an AI Supercomputer small wonder - so I'm looking more for Room sized computers or HAL 9000.
Doomsday Device(1 or 4)
Evil Intent (2) - perfect
Illegal Arms Trade (1)
Lawyers(1)
Mad Science(2)
Piracy(1) although it should be more modern day piracy
Welcome to My Island (1 or 3) - pretty.
 
May I suggest a different approach to the tech icons? Seems to me that, since the Building Icons in this scenario are all illustrated, so might the tech icons & Wonder Splashes. This is a wonderful opportunity to make use of all of the wonderful hand-drawn art out there splashing about on the internet. Why google stock pictures of computers when you can use a cool graphic illustration? Seems to me to be a no-brainer...

So having thus put a brain on the table, here are some tech icon suggestions:

Spoiler :



Mind you, I'm not suggesting that I do all of the tech icons myself, just that the tech and other Civ Icons for this mod be done in this manner. It's worthy of discussion.
 
People like what I do! Mwahahahahahaha!!!! How can it be that people have forgotten Mel Brooks' 1974 classic?
A great mad scientist if I ever saw one:

As you're prone to making references to popular music around the place (kudos on Reverend Simmons and the rev'n'run tech in EFZI), you could consider Judge Dredd/i am the law/ainwood.

Medics

Operations (don't really like it, but I don't know what kind of operations you want me to do)

Super Powered (not sure it's what you really wanted, maybe you want laser eyes or similar)

I agree with Balthasar; a point very well made, those types of tech icons fit a Super Civ scenario perfect. They are very unique also and add more atmosphere.

Yeah I think Balthasar's suggestion is a good one too.
