    Here is my filebox account with 13 pictures all labeled

    http://filebox.vt.edu/users/maeast/

    I'm at 254 BC in my Romani campaign and Baktria has made their Saka neighbors their protectorate.

    Also unfortunately the Casse, Armenia, Getai, Saurmatae, Sab'yn, and Parthia seemed to be crippled by debt. Also a KH and Epirus alliance is giving Makedon a really hard time.

    Good news is Pontus is expanding along the Black Sea coast and the Lusotanni are making inroads finally.

    Oh please, will you people turn banners off!

    They are so ugly, and so unrealistic...

    We'd love to have more movie cam shots too guys - we're still very busy working on the mod, and don't have as much time to do that. Our PR department is sort of nonexistant as you can probably tell. So if you want to fight some glorious battles, particularly near cool stuff like wonders, then save the battle replay and go in using the movie cam feature and take some full screen shots to post. We'd love it!

    Huzzah!



    The clipping of their shields sort of ruins it though.

    Aye, shame. I did get a few others that aren't quite as good but might be worth adding. The following being from a single, very small battle. First picture's messed up by another poorly placed 'camera' though. That or he tried snatching arrows from mid-flight.

    that 2nd shot of the guy crashing to the ground is awesome. might even be worth photoshopping a blood trail tracing his arc through the air (then adding an EB logo )

    The last picture looks sort of perverse at a glance.. Poorly placed fallen standard bearers ftw!

    I thought I'd try that battle replay/movie cam. The romans in the campaign are way to scared for a good fight.


    Macedon standing ready to defend the pyramids



    Romans advance



    Cavalry, trying to mow down Peltastai, end up in wall of spears



    Macedon elite, eager to fight.



    Hetairoi come charging, forgetting to turn their spears in time (1)



    In the heat of the fight



    Pila's looking for targets.



    Riding with the Prodromoi



    Stupid general. Brave, but stupid.



    Argyraspidai getting flanked



    Hetairoi come charging, forgetting to turn their spears in time (2)



    Finally, when the battle is over, while mopping up Hetairoi got it right.



    Aftermath



    Aftermath, from the Pyramid

    Nice Oleo. About 20 good moviecam shots is helpful. If you do anymore, getting some closer up shots with units would be great - especially if you could fight a battle in palms and take shots - or anywhere else picturesque.

    Let me know what faction you'd like and I'll get you an auxiliary banner. Of course another battle's worth of moviecam shots would be really sweet too.

    Oh - but dont' worry with making moviecam shots of units that are mucked up currently. One of those cavalry units has no spear in most all the shots. Hopefully we will have almost all unit issues worked out for our next patch.

    And one other thing: If someone would like to take these shots for us to use, please try to keep your unit detail and shadows all on high. Keeping most graphics settings on high would be optimal for us on these. Plus having huge unit size would be terrific.

    -------------------------
    Blank: the roman cavalry shot was very nice - spears through the officer wasn't so great (we're working on that)

    what happened to the two-hand pike grip on those argyraspidai? is this another wierd thing about blank's build, or is it an across-the-board problem?

    Nothing. I think you'll need to look closer. Try putting them out of phalanx mode in a custom battle.
