Light In The East: Civs Of The Orient(And Beyond)

To bad that we haven´t much talented model wizards like Zwei883 or Civitar :( I want Kublai and elephants so hard.
 
What's this? LITE? New hype?!

Does this mean you guys are back to working on civs again? It'd be awesome to see Turkey or the Ainu released at some point in the near future. Really nice Leaderscreen regardless, to whoever produced it - I like the prominence of blue and gold in both the map and the LS, it'll be interesting to see his icon.

I hope so, there are a lot of civs that have LHs done and their maps: Turkey, North Korea, Laos, Ainu, Tutankhamun.

Yuan needs an LH at this point in time, and one more UU model.

Icons are needed for all, except the civilization icons. Ainu and Laos out of the bunch, are closest.
 
What happened to the Hafsids/Tunisia - weren't they pretty close to being released a while before the hiatus began?

Good to hear that the Ainu are relatively close though.

They are, someone just offered to code the abilities for them and all the art is covered. A UU model from civ4 needs to be converted. If anyone can find someone to do that, it would be very appreciated! Unit (Black flag with skull and crescent model):http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=13276


Why can't an existing elephant unit be reskinned for the Laotian UU?

I'm no expert in unit model but I think that is because the model has a cannon mounted on the elephant.
 
Damn got ninja´d by Tranquil! Maybe just make the cannon smaller and change some colours or delete the armour of the elephant.
 
Spoiler :


Oh yeah, if you dont zoom it looks like a elephant with a cannon atop.
 
Isn't the Mughal Cannon carried behind the elephants, rather than atop of them?

IIRC the canons were carried atop of them just cartoonishly huge.

EDIT: ninja'd

EDIT: Wow I guess that is a bit more rational.
 
He looks a little young to be ruling the mighty Egyptian empire, are you sure he's up for the task ;)
Well, he did die (completely of natural causes of course) at the age of 19 or 20 or something :p.

He looks abnormally depressed for some reason.
That is because he is too late for the Battle for the Nile.
Precisely! About 3200 years. Besides, if your UA is all about [REDACTED] [REDACTED] on [REDACTED], it tend to be difficult to make friends, and you probably can't avoid ending up a bit gloomy ;).
 
Eh, somewhat. I posted a design for them in the design thread, not exactly sure if I'm satisfied with it yet.
 
I combined some elements of my old Ryukyu design and GPuzzle's to make this:

UA: The Three Mountains: Ryukyu and their ally gain an additional Trade Route upon signing a DOF or Research Agreement. Gain Culture for all Science earned through Trade Routes to or from you.

UB: Gusuku: Replaces the Castle and has a Scientist specialist slot. +1 Science for every Naval Trade Route to or from this city, increasing to +2 if the owner if your ally of research partner. +2 Gold for incoming Naval Trade Routes and +1 Gold for the owner.

UU: Wokou: Replaces Privateer. +2 Sight and can temporarily claim neutral water tiles. Foreign Cargo Ships ending their turn adjacent to a Wokou in Ryukyu waters provide Gold and XP.
 
I combined some elements of my old Ryukyu design and GPuzzle's to make this:

I like the design quite a bit. Although I am not a huge fan of the UA.

The UU is my favorite part, but I would just remove the claiming of neutral tiles as that would mean that the ship could heal anywhere.

Thanks for the ideas, we will definitely take them into consideration, especially the UU.
 
Just for reference, here is my design:

Ryukyu Kingdom

Leader: Sho Shin

UA: Great Days of Chuzan: Naval Units within 2 tiles of a friendly Cargo Ship gain +1 :c5moves: Movement and gain :c5goldenage: Golden Age points from winning battles. Land and Civilian Units in the same tile as Naval Units may Embark and grant a 20% Attack Bonus to the Naval Unit.

UB: Gusuku: Castle replacement. Available at Guilds. Does not need Walls in the City. +3 :c5gold: Gold. If built on a different landmass than that of the :c5capital: Capital, grants +2 :c5happy: Happiness. +2 :c5gold: Gold from Naval Trade Routes.

UU: Wokou: Privateer replacement. Pillages all enemy land tiles adjacent to the Coast, gaining :c5war: Experience and :c5gold: Gold for every tile pillaged. Starts with Coastal Raider II.
