Trading card style unit cards for offline use

[pezhetairoi]

I drool at that very appealing shade of green. Very nice system you have, Arka! Wonderful stuff. And thanks Karielle for helping me pass on the typos! XD I've started memorising the unit card stats, I am so fascinated by them (and bored in camp). So far Western Greek, KH and Makedonia done, Qarthadastim WIP! Are you currently doing the recruitment zones?

Are you currently doing the recruitment zones?

I am doing both the recruitment zones and finishing off the missing cards. So far all the units for Western and Eastern Greek factions are complete. The African factions (Qarthadast and Sabyn) are almost complete, as is Rome.

The next one to be completed is the Celtic (Casse, Arverni, Aedui) lot - that should be complete next week.

The recruitment zones will take a little longer but you should start seeing some of them crop up soon. I will probably start with the most commonly asked about units (e.g. Akontistai, Spendonetai, Toxotai) and do the more obvious ones later.

As for the typos, thanks for pointing those out. I am merely copying and pasting the short description that is in-game so these typos are even more fundamental.

Don't forget the Lusotana!

Just a suggestion, but perhaps it would be a nice idea if you were to add another set of MIC dots, in a different colour at the bottom of the picture perhaps, to denote the regional MIC level needed to build it for non-factional units? Unless they differ from faction to faction... *ponders*

And, keep up the good work! I'm rooting for you! And i seriously wish I could help, if only I didn't have to be in the army wasting two years of my life...

In 99% of the cases if a unit can be recruited from a factional MIC at level X it also can be recruited from a regional MIC at the same level. E.g. check the Hoplitai, they can be recruited from a tier 3 factional MIC for the HK. Every other faction can recruit them from a tier 3 regional MIC.

There are a few exceptions, e.g. the Peltastai who seem to wary between MIC 2 and MIC 3 depending on the faction. If you look closely at the Eastern Greek Peltastai unit, you will see that one of the MIC icons is greyed out. This represents exactly that phenomenon, i.e. for some factions it is a MIC 2 unit, for others MIC 3. Unfortunately there just isn't enought real estate on the cards to elaborate which factions correspond to which MIC, but as I said, this happens VERY rarely anyway.

Wow, you really consider everything, don't you? Long live you! Okay I'm reassured now. :D

[Arkatreides]

Ok, here is the deal for recruitment regions. I really want to focus on getting the fronts for all the units done first, but I also appreciate the need for the recruitment regions. So for the time being I will be making those on demand only. If someone really really absolutely needs a recruitment region, I will try to get that done. But please try not to overwhelm me with requests that aren't totally necessary. Also just to keep this sensible, I will restrict this to 3 requests per user for the time being with a right to veto them if I think the region is too obvious (If you ask for the Spartan Hoplite recruitment map, you will get a !)

[pezhetairoi]

Well, I second that, then. No hurry about the recruitment regions, go all out on the units! I can't wait to see the barbarian ones :D I just bought a hundred blank name cards to prepare backing up the next lot of cards you come up with...

[EDIT] You haven't corrected the Camillan Equites Romani saying they are Polybian cavalry yet... Just a reminder in case you forget about it...
