Age of Wonders Units

[Kindred72]

I've discovered that I can convert age of wonders units to civ. But, there are a couple of problems. The biggest is that there is no East or West views of the units. The only thing I could think of was to use the SE and SW views, but I don't think you purists out there would like that. The second is that there are no shadows. Should I bother?

Below are a couple of previews of the hundred or so fantasy units.

a wizard type

I'd say the more units to choose from the better so I vote a big YES.

The AOK units have mirrored SE/SW views anyway and they work just fine in my opinion.

No east or west views? I wonder why.

go for it!
The wizard looks great.
As for the no E/W views, big deal, more fantisy units, great!

I would seriously consider making one and seeing how it works in-game before going forward with converting a whole lot of them honestly, if it works, cool.

Yeah, what he said.

Are you sure there are no E/W pics? Did you check every file?

Because it's a hex-based game. You can't go that way.

Oh I suppose that makes sense.

Well, Haven't really gotten enough responses to make this worth my time.

Another vote from me!
It's a great idea to start converting these.
But, have you thought about legal concerns?

I would love for you do do this. Been tinkering with a mythic greek scenario and have been using the dinobarbs as the mythic mosters, would be great to have the ACTUAL monsters!
