    Cool EB2 Sneak-Peeks

    In this thread we plan to regularly post screenshots taken during development and testing, and which we found so good that we now want to share with you. We intend to post here with regularity, not only to spur more interest in our work, but also to attract more talented artists who wish to help the mod.

    Most of these pics represent already finished work, but some of them were WIP or taken in a testing environment, so it's normal that you may find some glitches. Please don't burden us with requests for fixing this or that, ok? There will be plenty of time to do that when we reach beta testing stage.

    Some old ones... the Carthaginian Elite Cavalry charges in some unknown location of the north-african desert.

    These pics show a lot of the things that make us spend long hours perfecting this and that detail: the cuirasses reflections, the modeled pelts, manes and armour pieces in the horses. The carthaginian general model also sports a specially made helmet and rich shield decoration.

    Now goes a priceless pic, taken by Gustave some months ago. It was a winner in a screenshot internal contest that we made in EBH. It's called "A Thug's Life" and shows a scarred veteran of the elite Hoplitai Epilektoi, with 3 other companions, taking a rest before going back to the fight. He seems to be very battle-weary.

    This is the kind of material that we're aiming to show, in a different perspective of the usual RTS-only approach. If you zoom in to your units during the battle you will find tons of details like these: scars, small tatoos, fibulae, torcs, etc.

    These are more recent pics, showing the Machimoi Phalangitai in action against Dorkim Libi-Ponnim (liby-phoenician infantry).

    This is another pic of the Hoplitai Epilektoi, with the great-looking beared-mask clearly visible. The mask was made in a way that any head in the unit can have the mask without causing collisions on the model.

    Now for something very different: the sauromatae horse archers, made a long time ago and right now under the process of remaking the horse model:
