View Full Version : EB Screenshot compition: screen submissions (Nov.)
Okay it's a new month the poll of the previous month will be closed tomorrow (though I think we can already see who's winning).
However because of a large inscrease of screen submission, which caused polls to be late, we will be using a NEW system.
The submission deadline remains the same, however instead of just an internal poll, 3 EB members will be autofiltering the screens, this way we have less screens in the internal poll and we'll be having a more obvious ranking. (Instead of screens not making it in because of one vote, or ties,...)
Then the best three will be competing in a public poll.
Let the games begin!

Some sexy looking screenies, so far. :2thumbsup:
I still think that's a winner, Raphia.

The only thing that was changed is the voting system. The rest remains the same. Photoshopped or not, just don't crop your image to much, the screen must be within forum rules and the screen must be taken from EB.

(Sorry it's so short and wide, I had the game paused while I took the screenshots, so it had the "pause" thing in the middle of the screen.)

How the hell do I take screen shots anyway?
A quick forum search would probably answer this, but you press Print Screen and they'll appear in a folder called tgas in your base RTW folder.
Centurion Crastinus
11-08-2007, 01:53
That seems easy enough, the flip side to this question is how do I post the screenshot on the forum.
Bootsiuv did a guide, again, perhaps a forum search.

Megas Pyrrhos one's I want to be prohibited. It's just too similar to one I once entered.:whip:

All excellent pics, as always. Atm, it's tied between Charge and Megas Pyrrhos IMO. Folgore would be up there if his pic was full size (excellent shot though).
I have a few prepared, but I spent hours on them with photoshop and thus will probably be turned down from the public poll by the EB team. So I may sit this one out.

So here comes one of my best shots I think. As you didn't appreciate the last month's entry's quiet content, I'll offer you some action this time. Although I fear it won't make it into the poll if there will be only three competitors selected...:no:

It does get overshadowed by some of these, although it's a great shot in my mind.

Didn't have time for a proper title. Had to go to school. Eventually Romans won. They always do. I will call it Königstiger.

Notice the general in the background, taking a Praetorian's head off.
I thought I'd share a few amusing pictures as well...

I just love the HK, they´re incredible (or in the spirit of another thread: They´re Chuck Norris on a horse that is Chuck Norris)

Tbh, I think that if I was anyone in that shot, I'd be the Praetorian just there standing directly in front of the camera and in the path of the Hellenikoi Kataphraktoi. I don't see how any human could do anything but freeze in terror at the sight of those armored beasts from hell.
Just as a filling:

Nice to see the Baktrian Late Cataphracts in a TWFanatic's pic, would be nice to see the Late Parthian one's to.
Although when it comes to sumptuous units the Sarmation Body Guard and the Roxlani Nobles are very tasty.
The finishing details the EB's have put into v1.0 help detail the screenshots nicely, the different Generals for the factions(the Baktrian being particually nice) and the standard bearers(the horse archer nations with the flying dragon type creature? in Captn. James Crunch's pic looks very nice).
Submission deadline is tomorrow.

Hi! We're sorry for this delay, but the team is still in the process of choosing the best for public voting :shame: . It's tough competition this month :yes: but very soon we'll have the best 3 from which the EB fans can find the best.
