Could you possibly give a description for Novalanda? I need it for the shield:)

Axewielders storm into a unit of Capasantra's Swordsmen!!



The swordsmen have been given a gloss map now, it still needs to be tweaked and is not my focus at the moment. Tomorrow will be the last day of Greyshadow development probably in the form of giving them a basic version of artillery.

Next week will be the introduction of the Kingdom of Peroland, a race of elves who are expert bowmen and allies of Capasantra.

@Braden
I forgot to answer your question about finishing so I'll post it here.

My plan is to get a working demo completed by the end of March, which will comprise of 4 factions (Capasantra, Greyshadow, Peroland and The Sorin Order) completed to a certain degree with fully working unit cards and ui system for those 4 factions.

Included will be the Battle of Kasadaroc:
The battle takes place near the City of Kasadaroc. This was the last battle of the previous age and where the campaign begins. The Capasantra and Peroland Armies have marched upon Kasadaroc in an attempt to take one of Greyshadow's major cities and output to the west. The Allies hold their position a few miles south west of the city to prepare for an attack the next day. The Greyshadow Army has intercepted their arrival and now marches upon the allies. To add to the mix, the Sorin are coming to the aid of Greyshadow and are due to arrive any time soon upon the allies' left flank.

The battle is fought ahead of the allied encampment somewhere in the Great Eastern Desert.
- The Capasantra are led by King Feramus (added will be a special models for Captain Druce and Captain Jeral who command 2 units in the army)
- The Peroland Elves are led by King Leomahn of Peros
- The Greyshadow are led by Grandslayer Feros fer Blackhand
- The Sorin are led by Meister Sordin

Thereafter the plan is to complete the mod sometime after my final assignment in uni sometime during the summer with a full campaign.

You mean the Freema?

They are the 'free' people of Novalanda. They live in complete peace with each other with communal trust and law. Their armies are semi-proffesional and not particually strong. They are mostly comprised from western humans, some elves and refugee seracom.

Dont know if that helps.

Hmm...animal, plant, charateristic of the landscape would help...somethin to distinct the...or I'll just make something up, I've got plenty of generic crests in my head...

[richyg13]

ermm well the cities they control... one is a mountainous pass the other a wonder controlling settlement (i dnt know what it is exactly yet but its called the Collusus of Decan). They're a light force.

Hmm, an Collosus in the middle with a sun with several rays above it...maybe mountains in the back...
