Amazon: Total War

[SubRosa]

It is possible that it is something to do with Vista. Olaf is also having problems and has Vista. But I know other people who can play ATW fine on Vista. So I am really not sure.

Here is that Spearwoman unit I mentioned for New Amazonia. Thanks to Private Clark for the figure 8 shield, which is exactly what I was wanting for them. I am thinking of emblazoning it with something. Maybe a triqueta, or some form of magical beastie. I am not sure yet.



I am also fairly sure that I will replace New Amazonia's Agema Axewomen with a Berserker unit as well. An idea I got when I was working on unit cards from Andalus' AUP. I like the idea of putting one of those bearskins on an Amazon unit. Or maybe even just one of the Roman Velite's wolfskins. I could call them the Sows of Ares... (hmm, on second thought, maybe not).

Ok and also (get picture of naked Amazon berserks running around being insane)

The Sows of Ares LULZ!

I actually like that idea. I think a barbarian Naked Fanatic unit in general would be good, maybe with enough clothing to be PG rated, and all covered in tattoos/woad. Sadly I am not an artist, so creating a skin that would work is beyond me.

AWWW man! PG?

PG? PG?! This is blasphemy! This is MADNESS!

Sorry guys, this is Amazon Total War, not Playboy Total War.

SubRosa,

I've been playing with the Amazon mod and I believe you have done a fantastic job! Very enjoyable, and the factions don't seem to be overly powerful. If CA doesn't ask you to help out with one of their projects, they are really going to be missing out!

Those Amazon Berzerkers are amazing. I hope the have the 'scares enemies' attribute due to those impressive masks

[SubRosa]

Thanks guys,

I am thinking of using a different weapon than the double-headed axe, as that is the weapon of the Agema Axes as well. I am not sure what else I might use though. A two-handed sword does not feel right. Or a falx. I know I do not want that spiked club the German Berserkers have.

One thought I had was to use a single-bladed two-handed axe (the kind the German Chosen Axemen have) in each hand. But that idea seems to go to the ridiculous. Two of the normal single-handed axes might work. But I want something big and ominous.

A mace perhaps? or mabey a boar spear
