Sounds interesting...

Stormrage · Dec 6, 2005

Woohooo! Fantasy madness! Take that, sci-fi dudes!

Good luck Darque, I see that you have 0% on your units, but I`m sure you`ll find what you need around here, our fellow members with unit-making skills have created a variety of amazing fantasy and medieval units. Also, for some colour variations I suggest you download the D&D Mystara mod, if you haven`t already, cause it has some nice recolorings of existing units.

P.S.: Welcome to CFC :wavey:

P.P.S.: just joking with "take that, sci-fi dudes!"

The Fallout mod was the reason I started lurking around here.

Darque · Dec 7, 2005

Thnx for the support

I am already playing the Mystara mod. It has been a great source of inspiration for planning out my new mod.

As for units, I have downloaded a bunch off of this site. The unit creators have done an absoultely fantastic job. I just have to plan out where each unit goes and implement them into my mod.

Stormrage · Dec 7, 2005

You know... when I check out the Civilizations of Dragonia list... A lot of Goblin and Dwarven races... are they all gonna look the same, except 1 or 2 UU`s? I mean, its not going to be like the WH or Mystara mod?

Darque · Dec 7, 2005

It will be a bit like the WH and Mystara mods, in that each race will for the most part have its own set of units. I will also add another factor into the mix - alignment. Each civilization will be designated as good, neutral, and evil. Some technologies and units will be only available to the correct alignment. This will give a little extra variety between each of the civilizations.
(I will update the civilization list to reflect their alignment)

Stormrage · Dec 8, 2005

Oh goody

I`m all about UU`s and FU`s

P.S.: FU meaning Flavour Units

Spacer One · Dec 8, 2005

sounds like a great idea...I will definately check this out when its done

Darque · Dec 8, 2005

Looking around at Leaderheads, I haven't found any for gnomes. Would anyone have any suggestions? Also, suggestions for alternative leaderheads for goblins and orcs would be appreciated too.

Spacer One · Dec 8, 2005

there are both orc and goblin LH somewhere...I will look if youd like, I think they are both WH or some other themed fantasy canon, but they should work better than nothing...

Gnomes I think you are hosed...maybe one of the less hairy dwarves?...

Oh wait...I think there is a Bilbo baggins LH...maybe thats better than nothing...

Darque · Dec 8, 2005

Already using the current goblin and orc leaderheads that are in WH and Mystara. As well as the shires leaderhead from Mystara for my halfings.

woodelf · Dec 8, 2005

Coolness. I almost missed this one. Good news hearing about another Fantasy mod. Goodluck and Godspeed Darque!

woodelf · Dec 8, 2005

And I agree with Stormrage about the units. You shouldn't be at 0% for long if you borrow some.

Darque · Dec 8, 2005

I have downloaded a bunch of units...just not implemented them yet. I want to complete my tech tree and then decide what units I want where before I start implementing units.

I have decided that my tech tree will be split into 5:
Base Tech: Includes technologies that are given to civilizations at the start of the game instead of being learned.
Military: Includes technologies that have a direct relation to offensive, defensive, naval, and air units, as well as military buildings.
Infrastructure: Includes technologies that are related to production, commerce, food, and trade.
Religion/Government: Includes technologies that are related to religion and government.
Magic/Education: Includes technolgies related to magic and science.

Another idea that I want to implement is that buildings that generate culture points will be military related buildings rather than cultural buildings. The reasoning for this is that as the city holds onto a territory, its military power is what determines how much land is controlled around the city. As the city builds more military related building, its military power grows, increasing its area of control.

I think this is a very, very good idea.
And there are no alternative orc and goblin LH`s, just two of them. Another Orc may get finished by R8XFT, but it may take some time, he is quite buisy with his AD mod - btw, are you aware of his units? They cannot be found around here. If you want I`ll give you a link. They are really cool.

Just an idea... If someone makes a mod with lots of civs, but without a LHs - lets say you use aaglo`s beastmen for a civ, or in this case lots of orc and goblin civs- why not have flag LHs? Those should be easier to make if appropriate one`s do not exist, right?

Here are the leaderheads for the Dragonia mod.
(Black spaces are used as placeholders when a leaderhead has not yet been selected.)

Stormrage · Jan 20, 2006

Yo! Darque! Nice work there! Where`d ya get the Paladorn dude and the Drow babe? And the new dwarf? The Rock clan?

Everything looks sweet!

Quinzy · Jan 20, 2006

the drow is a scifi Auslander by ED. Paladorn looks like a LOTR elf. Rock Clan might be from AD or TAM...
