Forgot to mention...
alerum, I used the file you sent me to assign the cities/civilizations for the map. I had to guess on a couple, the ones you had changed the civilopedia entries, because the "race" was changed from its original. Hope I got them all right, so I didn't mess up any of your work. Plus I added two more: Arabia for Shara & Byzantines for Aes Sedai.

I could not find any city names or even clues for city names for Shara, so I just left them with their original names. This means that "Mecca", "Baghdad", etc. made the transition into Jordan's world... which doesn't seem right, but I'm sure we'll figure something out to fix that. Also I didn't have a name for the Shaido Aiel's city/starting point, so I just labled it "Shaido." I'm sure you'll be able to think of something better than that.

later,
 
Actually, since the Shaido division took place in the Jenn Aiel's city maybe we should name it that... it is after all the birth of the 2 Aiel Nations, as well as where most of the Aiel history is stored, and if I figured it correctly, the Shiado will be the only Aiel left after Tarmon Gai'don.... Only a Remant of a Remant shall remain.;) Rhuiden was the city name, if I remember correctly without looking it up. Maybe that should be the place for the Shiado. For the other Aiel it's very easy... we make 11 cities, one for each of the remaining tribes. Of course the Chareen will be the Capitol.:p
 
Is the finished map going to be with a full set of rules? That would be AWSOME! I'm currently working on my own map and rules, just nice and simple with graphics from the game. If you guys are going to edit the rules, how much? It would really be nice to have cities, civ advances, units, improvments and wonders are WOT style.
 
Welcome to the thread Saturn6. TO answer your question, I'm going so far as to edit citizens and specialist to WoT theme. Because of this though, and because of the high work load both me and Cam have had the last few months, things are moving slowly... but they are moving.;) If you'd like to lend a hand, send one of us a PM and we'll discuss what needs doing.:) Thanks for the interest.
 
Not sure if any unit creators are on board yet. At least I haven't heard. Hopefully one will get snared eventally. Sometimes takes a while.
 
"How long till we get a unit creater?". I think Cam will be working on it after we get other stuff done. I'll have to check. I would be a unit creator if I could, but I can't get the software. That would be cool to have customized units tho.

How big is this map gona be? Will it included the entire world or just the Place where rand travels. I know that there is about 3 WOT maps out their, it would me to know that.

In the Unit Request Thread I asked for a Warder and an Aes Sedai, so that will hopfuly get those two units in for us.

Does any think that we can use a heavy cataphract for a Lancer in the game? How bout a Shienaearan lancer? I haven't downloaded it yet, but the description sounds good. I also now realize what map w're using, so no need to tell me. To download the catphract go here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=22289

A catphract would be a good shienarian lancer, but some things will have to be modified.... I believe Shienarians carry 2 swords over their shoulders, such as Lan does. Cam, you know how to edit current units, or would it just be using MS Paint for something minor like that?
 
I thought it was the Arafellin's who wore 2 swords on their back. Did the men of Shienar also?
 
Arafellin's do carry 2 swords... Don't remember if Shienarians do or not.
I've used Kinboat's Kensai as a substitute unit for Arafel's UU so far. The Kensai carries both swords on his hip, but close enough for now.

Saturn6, you might want to attach pictures to your unit requests. It'll help the creators get an idea of what you're talking about... plus a cool pic might draw in someone who otherwise wouldn't know from the series.

Eventually I plan on helping out with units. I think I've picked up all the software I need (Poser5, Paint Shop Pro, & flicster) , but I've been so swamped with work lately that I haven't even had time to learn them. HOPEFULLY I'll get some time off soon that way I can devote some time to figure them out, but even then I'm sure it'll take a little while to get the hang of it. Once I do though, I'll be spending just about every spare minute I have putting out units. ;) But until then, we'll just have to rely on other creators for now.

Alerum, I'm sure we could just edit the cataphract by painting over it frame by frame, but I don't know how good it would turn out in terms of quality.
 
Be sure to get pictures for the weird units that Seanchan would have. It would be amazing if someone could make them. A new unit maker on the scene is Muffins. He is very fast like aaglo and is getting closer to their quality. His latest units are mechs and they look really good. Just in case you haven't noticed him. His idea of fantasy units might be a bit gorey, but I thought I might mention him.
 
Muffins? He's more into Sci-Fi units isn't he? Wondering if he'd be able to make the switch... Would you mind sending him a message for us TJ? He may respond to someone who's been around as long as you have.
 
I'll try. His sci-fi mechs are from War Hammer 40K so I don't know if he's just into that. He also did a few female ancient units. Biggest problem with him is that he has a short attention span. He's quick, but after a few units he might just stop and wander off. I'll try though. If he makes a couple it might get others attention.

Here is what Shieraearan Lancer could look like.

Robert Jordan gives no description of 2 sword over there back. Thats the another Border Land Unit

We could modify the Lancer of course....

I'll send him a PM now about it. If he doesn't want to I'll check with others. Kinboat is busy with the War Hammer mod, but there is still BeBro as well. Or Kindred72.
 
Sorry Omega, but I'm in the busy season for my work. If you like I could give you the backbone of the mod I have so far, and you can work on it then. Otherwise, I should be able ot get back to this full time sometime in October.
 
I feel your pain Omega :) ... I wish we could get it done soon also, but in order to make it worthwhile, I'm afraid it's gonna take some time. It's kinda like waiting for the next book in the series. ;)

I think the Ninja is a good starting point for the Aiel too Saturn. A few minor changes (color modification & changing the hooks into spearheads) would be even better.
I also think longbowman could work for a "Two Rivers' Bowman."
I've got plenty of other ideas too. I made a list a while back from my own ideas + suggestions from other people in my earlier threads. I could dig it up and throw it on here in a day or two. That way we can all yay or nay some ideas and possibly come up with some more that we may have overlooked.
