Glad you like her... I'm rendering the default, fidget, and run animations right now... Micaelus deserves every praise for his wonderful unit-rendering Python script anyone can bestow upon him!
The Magical Girl form animations will have to wait until I can cobble together a suitable magical wand and set up the apropriate animations...
The transformation sequence, based on past experience, is going to be a stone-cold [female dog]...

Oh, don't worry, I have all sorts of poser props... Just need to decide on one... As a matter of fact, I have a cross-topped wand that came with this "Cleric" set I got for Aiko 3 (parts of which have been used in several units I've done over the years), and IIRC, I also picked up some other such stuff as well....
Also I just realized how long it's been since I've made ANY units when I forgot to parent the primary figure to the ground prop before rendering it... Thankfully I caught that before the first animation was done rendering, but it still wasted some time.

I've been doing some work on this recently and should have a beta ready very soon. 
I'd just like to make you all aware of a couple of design changes:
1) I felt Nemesis was a bit underdeveloped for the uber bad guy that he's supposed to be so I gave him his own Team: United Underworld. This faction now has units along the "Crime" Tech Line (as well as the super powers tech line). As you can see from the attached image this faction has some gothic/demonic elements going on hence their name (which also happens to be stolen from the original batman movie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060153/plotsummary).
2) I revised the capturable super character and incorporated them all into a non playable faction now called The Neutral Squad led by the unfathomable Captain Cretin. There are now 18 cities placed on the map belonging to the Neutral Squad. The aim will be to capture these cities after defeating their resident super character which will allow you to capture the defeated version of their unit which in turn can be upgraded to a super character again. Don't expect this to be easy because the Neutral Squad have a secret weapon up their sleeves as well as the free roaming powerful Captain Cretin. Apart from this however, the Neutral Squad can't build units or settlers.
3) Governor's Island - initially this was going to be the base for Nemesis but I didn't want to isolate him on an island. What I've done then is turn this into Monster Island - the place where the government puts all the monsters it can't handle (i.e. kill). So this place will be crawling with all manner of nasties (all belonging to the barbarian faction). The incentive for clearing this island however, will be access to some cool alien technology.
4) You may have spotted some new names on the super character unit list. My aim is not to be disrespectful or to cause offence but is my little of way of paying tribute to two former Civ Fanatics: Stormrage and Spacer One. I picked units that reflected their user names rather than their character. Everyone who's posted so far will be included also (unless you don't want to be) - I just haven't picked out a unit for you yet but if you want to suggest one as well as a Bio let me know.

Thanks Hikaro that's good to know. I don't work fast so it's not a problem 
. I have a week off work just now but the weather is lousy hence my sudden burst of activity.

Just found the perfect unit for Moosezilla
And this for LizardmenRule perhaps?
Now just need a unit for Plotinus, Hikaro, tom2050, Virote and Wolfhart (Takhisis - you're already in there)

I am gratified. Can't wait to play.

Well, if you're basing it on my Avatar, then the Second Great War US trooper from Wyrm's Harry Turtledove units... If it's based on my Username, some Samurai dude would be the best bet (either default Firaxis Samurai, PTW extra Samurai or Kinboat's Kensei)...

It's a nice unit but it's too out of proportion with the other vehicle units.

This looks like a super fun scenario. Don't know how I missed it until now. Can't wait to play it!

It all looks fantastic. Some great units being put to great use.
I suppose Plotinus would best be represented by the ancient Leader unit, or a variation thereon, if you can think of anything interesting to do with him...

Is it too big? Could be resized... if it is too small, it still might look okay if enlarged a bit.
BTW I'm honored to be in one of these, but tom2050 as a unit name is a bit ackward...
