    Here's the first Scythian unit.Name:  #steppe_horde_virgin_horse_archers.jpg

    It is very detailed yet with so few pixels!

    Looks very good.

    Just a quick FYI, in the actual unit card for recruiting and battle, the whole of the smaller tile needs to move over to the right by a few pixels.

    Because the top left, and top right are reserved for unit status.

    Thank you.
    I noticed when I test them in my game. Will correct this for this unit no problem at all.

    Wheelie,

    Just my personal opinion, I think the unit cards are the best I have seen contributed, and we must have seen a few hundrend contributions so far.

    The picture is derived from the actual model, so there is spherical "distortion" when mapped from 3D to 2D. Meaning if you can rotate the tile to make it upright, I think it will look even better.

    But as it is right now, it is already amazingly clear and easy to identify.

    Here are the cards I made today. Sometimes it's difficult to find them like the new Scythian hunting-maidens. So some of these pictures haven't the proper name.

    I see what BB is saying about the 3D to 2D projection, your latest unit tiles are right on!

    Not sure if this is an error or not, but are Pantheons suppose to take 64 turns to build?
    As Libyan Amazons in Carthage (and pretty much all Africa and Iberia) the pantheon to Camilla costs around 23,000 and takes 64 turns. I understand that it's a huge temple but seriously, every other massive structure (including epic walls!) probably doesn't add up to this =P
