All right, this one pack is special in that it will directly determine the stuff that arrives next. Kohan 2 has six major factions/races, each with distinct architecture. I'm set on releasing this one in faction-by-faction packs. Your votes can determine the order they're released. The pack that has most votes gets released first - then the pack that has second most votes etc. To give you a taste of the factions, here are two buildings from each - an outpost and a fort (two for each faction because fort and outpost for each share the textures, and as such it would be foolish not to release them together). Basically, the forts are just buffed up versions of the outposts.

The factions presented are:
1) Drauga - barbarian/nomad/orc archetype
Picked last; the vote won't affect anything anymore.
Most buildings are made of hide and bone; the fort has fire animations on the tower tops (not shown).
2) Gauri - dwarf archetype with slight mesoamerican flair
Picked third, no need to vote for them anymore.
All buildings are very solid brickwork, look almost like typical fantasy dwarven masonry. The fort has a single fire animation on its top (not shown).
3) Haroun - very pronounced wood elf archetype
Picked second, no need to vote for them anymore.
All buildings are greenish and elvish, and incorporate lots of trees and glowy red lanterns. All trees and lanterns are animated (swaying).
4) Human - typical fantasy humans archetype
Picked first, no need to vote for them anymore.
Many buildings can probably also work for non-fantasy medieval settings. Mostly white stone masonry. Outpost and fort not animated, hanging flags easily detachable.
5) Shadow - rock formations and glowy stuff
Picked fifth
Typically animated with lots of glowy stuff and constructed of black rocks and floating crystals. Outpost and fort have animated walls made of lightning; fort has floating animated glowy crystals.
6) Undead - typical fantasy undead archetype
Picked fourth
Although outpost and fort aren't animated, many of their buildings have glow and mist effects for haunted looks. Graveyards and black ruined towers mostly; very befitting an undead theme.
P.S. The thermal vent promised after the previous pack is also included. Not shown on the screens, as it won't open in NifSkope. Still, it should work.
Cast your votes, ladies and gentlemen!
