Thank yuo for the offer, if you would like to produce some promo shots once the release in August is made, that would be brilliant.

Sure. In that case, I'll contact you.

Hi there,

An EB II tweet linked to this thread and mentioned you still require some help with adding more content to EB II following the first upcoming release?

I'm not all that active on ORG but have been following EB II for more years than I care to admit on TWC and would be delighted to help out in any way I can. It's EB I that keeps me coming back to RTW, so I've nothing but the highest respect for your work and if there's anything to be done that I can contribute to, count me in.

That is, if my skillset currently is required on the team. The tweet mentioned "3D Modelling" and "Artwork" - I'm afraid my 3D modelling skills are non existent but I would gladly help in any way I can when it comes to artwork.

Personally I've mostly moved over to digital art the last few years and would be happy to send you some samples if required. I believe Brennus is doing a lot of the concept art for EB II and I wouldn't want to interfere if he's got the job covered, but if assistance is required please feel free to let me know. I could also try myself on other bits & pieces (icons, banners and such) but usually spent most of my time drawing historically inspired characters (comes with the archaeology degree ^^).

I'm usually not uploading most of my art to the web, but wanted to at least give one sample for your consideration. More could be send via email. This is a flat color drawing of a celtic individual (I wanted to see if I could copy the art style of The Banner Saga...)

The picture was drawn with a much higher resolution in mind, so this thumbnail version unfortunately takes away a little from its appeal (or so I feel at least).


One way or another, thanks for all your work on EB II! It has me very excited to say the least.

Thanks Brennus. I've replied to you via PM as well but the message disappeared from my "Sent" folder shortly after. Let me know in case you didn't receive it.

Hi!

Long time lurker and EB fan. I have been a huge fan of EB for years, and I'm extremely happy to see EB2 to finally come online. I would love to help anyway I can, and given my lack of artistic skills and a degree in ancient history, I want to put my name down as a scripter. I am not familiar with M2TW scripting, but I am very willing to learn and I'm familiar with EB1 script. I am a decent writer, so I can definitely contribute to descriptions of units and buildings, etc. as well. Please let me know if I can be of help--and thanks again for two amazing mods!

Hi mandrewsf. Thank you very much for the kind words of support. Ideally we would need you to be reasonably competent with M2TW scripting before we could accept your offer of help. Please don't take this as a snub, but we do require future team members to be capable in the field they intend to work in before we can accept their help. There are plenty of things in EBII which would benefit greatly from having additional scripters, but unless you know how to work with the M2TW script then there not much we can do.

If you manage to learn how to script in M2TW please let us know.

With regards your degree in ancient history ideally we would be looking for a North African specialist.

And thank you for your continuing support!

I believe he meant he lacked a degree in ancient history.
