So Celtic shields and Germanic shoes. Belgae Spearmen then? Batacorii?
Damn you Moros :laugh4:
Then I'll say it's definitely Lugians (c'mon answer with Definitely. :juggle2:)
*Beeeep* :oQuote:
Almost to the 3/4 mark of units for the first release.
No almost 3/4 of the units for Gaza campaign are complete!? :O Can't wait.
And can we get more information on those Germanic or Germanic influenced spearmen? :P
As an sidenote: Will Gaza allow for multiplayer gameplay? (obviously with the limited units only in the Gaza campaign)
Nope, 3/4 for the first total release. I would like to say how many units comprise the first release, but I'm afraid I would release classified data... or would I?, I dunno.
Currently the unit department is advancing at a good pace, thanks to the efforts of Gustave, Huene, Tux and Jorge (It would go faster if we had an additional skinner to help Gustave, though), but what we are now really missing are good text writers and some key historians to help some factions that are currently lagging behind in development.
Gaza campaign =/= First release.
The first is a tutorial campaign. The latter is a full working mod with a full campaign map, but not with all the features,units,.. the final version will have.
Are there any updates/news on Gaza Campaign that we fans can know about?
*nearly inserts a tactless joke about Gaza*
srsly: just wait for it; if they're 3/4 the way done from a beta, then the Gaza campaign is near release. when that happens, we can al enjoy the wonerful sight of two great hellenistic armies fighting with each other.
afterall: who in his right mind releases the tutorial after the game itself?
They're 3/4 done with the most important of units. Units is not all that has to be done.
I think they still need to sort out some things about the campaign itself.
Then they'll polish the Gaza Campaign, then a beta, and then a more finished product (more units, descriptions, some bug fixes) will arrive.
The progress is great, but let's keep our patience. We'll need it. And the EB team will need it too, so they can work with time and love for their hobby and deliver yet again a fantastic job.
Well, we still have text to write, game mechanics to iron out, unit balancing, etc. We're getting there and we just want to keep you guys updated on what's happening. Due to our model bank we're making good progress with the handful of very talented unit artists that we have. Still, lots to do.
Yip, the positive side is if all the first release units are done, we won't stop creating units. So that might mean we will have more units in the first release.
New update on Twitter
I´m happy to see some of the work being done on the iberians, the one on the right i am curious as to what it may be, it seems like it is wearing some kind of cloak over the other clothes.Quote:
Alin, you're spoiling them! :)
I think they rather stay in the dark and don't have a clue about anything. They want to be surprised when they finally download the mod. I think they'd prefer us to stop tweeting and previewing really. I mean it's like telling them what they'll get for Christmas next year. That's no fun... is it?
Moros,your so full of ********.
EDITED :)
Right from now on I'll show kittens:

Poor little kitten, it was so cute...
Kittens are fun to watch! We need to show more kittens instead of units! Great idea Alin!
@Micko: Could you edit out that last word. Write ****** or something instead please, using these kind of words is against forum rules. Thank you.
And Tux u got a *** yellow card https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYfp...eature=related for being ..... ^^
EDITED
Thank Micko. ~:)
of course; but it still means that it will be soon (as in a couple months?), based on everything else said since. its IMO all the more reason to be patient; the closer it is, the more we have to control ourselves. no need to rush it.
and darn, that big cat was sure angry at the kitten for wearing the hat. :no:
Indeed, bravo.~:)
And here's your bonus for guessing at least the faction, some pics of eb2's elite regional lugii unit:

Great work Tux!
Athanaric, look at the screenshots :p
Javelin and Spear.
Yay!:2thumbsup:
2 questions: Will the Lugians be in as faction (you said I got the faction right) or will they be just a regional unit?
And I noticed little shield symbols on 2 of the unit cards:book: Does that mean they'll have at least 2 stages of evolution?:juggle2:
Ah and I almost forgot to say that they look pretty awesome!
Nicely spotted Kuningaz, new EB faction is Lugians!
But yeah really nice units, also interesting as well being a mix of both Celts and Germanics from the looks of it.
