    there are always gonna be weaknesses in armies however cool they are.... if you pit two spartan hoplites vs only 1 then the two generally win for example......

    i am more worried that the demon army will be too strong for the other armies to push back: the demons should get countless demons and the men are limited also the demons look so kick ass! lol

    hoggy when are you doing the unit stat?? now, or when the models are fully completed

    well, basically i implement the models into actually units with the appropriate stats and what not. when hoggy finishes them and sends them to me.(obviously he is quite capable of doing this himself. but i think we can all agree, the more time he spends with these great models, the better.) and so the units which are finished have some sort of preliminary stats. when all units are finished we can wory about if such and such cavalry is way to strong and such and such infantry cant last 2 seconds. that said i try to keep all things in perspective and look at how i rated the attack of samurai as apossed to the shoalin monks.
    wow that ended up being alittle longer than i had anticipated

    Yep, we can fine tune when we start testing but Blindfaith's initial stats work really well.

    Cheers for all the input on Korean (Choson) units. I've done the concept art for this mini faction and adjusted the armylist slightly in light of your input (see page one of this thread). Hope you like them. There are no gunpowder or rocket units as yet but I may add some later.

    Oh man those concept pics are wonderful (as usual!)... You are a top modeller but your concept art are incredible too. It is so alive, full of motion and it captures the spirit of every culture the warrior/unit comes from.

    I can easily say that I am going to play as the Choson when the mod is finished. I hope that you (as you hinted) will add some gunpowder-based units. It will buff the Choson and turn it in to semi-mini faction/semi-standard faction and that would be cool.

    Massive Shockage!

    They're beautiful!

    Haha. I'm overjoyed.

    I can only hope that you may add more units to the Choson faction if you ever find the time.

    Very nice!

    Just had an idea here.

    Perhaps you could add the Shaolin monks to the Korean faction too. (Yes, I am greedy).

    That would require no additional modding or skinning, and it has a historical backround too. Monks actively participated in the Imjin Waeran, and the Goryeo dyansty had a corps of monks in it's army called the "Subdue Demon Corps"

    Just a thought.

    Once again the Choson faction looks beautiful!

    Great jobb Hoggy!

    Hm..I was looking through the concept art for the Koreans and I noticed a few things.

    Just a few minor things, they look great though.


    For the Goguryeo Heavy Cavalry, I noticed you gave the Horse "Pants". Sorry for being a stickler, but I havn't seen wall murals depicting that kind of armor. I think it would be more akin to this (Sorry for butchering your masterpieces on paint):



    I also found it kind of wierd that the Hwarang's hat is facing forward..that's minor though.

    Also, what's up with the spearman's hair? It's very, bulgy. Is that a hat?

    If it's hair, he would have worn a long piece of cloth as a head band to keep it in place.

    Otherwise, Beautiful. :D

    Cheers
