WH Discussion Thread

Units can only be made smaller. You make it bigger, you get a bunch of big, fat pixels.

Yah, I agree, the current Borgio should stay cos he looks true to GW`s lore.. but dayum.. they did a weird thing with General B. there...

 

[mrtn]

Stormrage, if you don't like the gfx custom made for the mod, then that's your problem. And if you think Borgio looks like a dwarf, so what? It looks like Borgio!

Bigdog, I've thought about giants and greenskin, but they already have the trolls, which come at the same tech as giants, and with almost the same stats, so I don't really think there's room for it. We can't replace the Merc wonder for the greenskins, so even if we added a giant wonder they could still get human mercs.

edit: xpost with stormrage.

Question - on Borgio`s left pauldron, is the second guy from the left playing a solo act on a guitar?

@mrtn - calm down. This is the discussion thread, remember? BD and I were discussing some changes, K? He wanted a 20 year old in a fantasy shiny armor to represent a merc. general, I countered with a more realistic vision - a rennesaince hedonistic bastard, probably hailing from someone else`s bedroom, judging by the background, while his troops are out there, earning their paychecks

 

[aaglo]

Yeah , well its still only the two units right?, thats pretty unique...

Steam-tank and rat tank are also "artillery-units" with attack and defence stats, so they're not that unique anymore... and then there are also a ton of magic-wielders, which can be used as artillery too.

We can't replace the Merc wonder for the greenskins, so even if we added a giant wonder they could still get human mercs.

Can't you make it go obsolete with "greenskins"?

 

[aaglo]

I think it already becomes obsolete with the bretonnian starting tech, since it's more important that it's not available for brets. ('cos they don't use mercenaries at all).

 

[kairob]

@Mrtn page 80, its the "Engine of the gods" and the rules for it are on page 60...

 

[mrtn]

Yeah, I found it after a bit of searching. It's a "maybe" unit.

 

[LMR]

Mind sharing what it is with the rest of us non-warhammer army book having people?

 

[Stormrage]

there is a .pdf for creating one of those things on the lustria site

Looks like that thing from "Contact" with Jodie Foster, mounted on a dinosaur

 

[LMR]

Damn, i can't access the pdf. ive be having a lot of computer trouble lately (slow internet, pdfs not opening properly, suddenly decreases in memory)

oh well, i guess a nice person will post a pic or something...

 

[Stormrage]

Here it is

EDIT : wait

EDIT : here

 

[LMR]

Ah, i see. thats pretty cool. dunno what the attack would be like tho. seems like an "aaglo-project" to me

do you think the amazons could get the salamander as well? they have the beastmistress at nature lore already, but could they have another unit there?

 

[Stormrage]

Girls need a Sally unit, eh? Not a bad call..

 

[mrtn]

Here is a very big computer generated map of the WH world that can be of interest if you're into that sort of thing.

 

[bigdog5994]

wow thats a neat map, it looks so peaceful

 

[aaglo]

Here's the map posted by mrtn, made into a sphere and some clouds added. Pretty cool... for like a mapmaking-tech? Or optional startup-screen?

Spoiler :

 

[kairob]

OMG, I like!!! well done Mrtn and Aaglo , why not use it for the tech you can swap maps with (forgot the name...)

 

[mrtn]

I did not make that map. It's done for Mark of Chaos. Read more.
