Blood & Steel v.2 for TOT?

[jim panse]

Should I make a TOT version of my latest scenario? Get yourself a look at Blood & Steel v.2 @ CDG and vote then

[curtsibling]

Oh yes!

You will be blown away by the possibilities that you can achieve with the extra features!

Tons of Events and super-quality units?



Nuff said!

PS
Catfish made a very good conversion guide in the 'graphics workshop' sticky thread...

For the love of god Steph YES!!! The future of Civ II lies in ToT now, as the limits of MGE are just too great even for designers of your calibre. Another 18 units slots.... not to mention that with these units you need not worry about the old MGE pallet.

Honestly Steph, we here owe allot to the likes of you, Curt, HT, Eivind, Pablo and Gareth for taking MGE as far as it could be taken and beyond. But now.... a new world is waiting to be conquered, a world of uncharted wonder and mystery, a world that holds more potential than MGE ever could have in its designers best dreams.

That world..... is the world of ToT.

Honestly, imagine all the new units you'd be able to add. Plus, you can have more cities in ToT can you not? You won't have to sacrifice the cities in Africa so you can have them in Mexico instead. Meaning there will still be plenty of cities for an effective African war as well as in Latin America.

No brainer Steph. You've already got the bulk of the work done. In ToT you won't have to make the big compromises. Go for it.

i posted some improved versions of my t-35 and 2 of my generic 30'sish tanks at cdg in your blood and steel v2 preview thread, my t-35 would be really cool in your scenario, extreme attack and poor defence

[typhoon]

I believe fairline is working on a T-35 for Red Front, one which will blow us away when it is released

[Sarsstock]

I can't wait to see it indeed.... the shere size and detail needed to render a T-35 could only be truly captured in the ToT format.

i dunno about that, it seems to fit good in mge, of course it has been shrunk in proportions, but i managed to pull it off

of course it wont look nearly as good when fairline shows off his

Jackpot! From the Red Front thread, here it is:

[jim panse]

Since the people have spoken ... I am going to do so

Btw, does anyone know how to edit the health bar in TOT so that is does not appear in the upper left edge of the unit slot?

[Broken_Erika]

what do you mean? positioning of the health bar?

Mercator is the man to ask. There was a thread somewhere on the ToT forum I believe.

[Mercator]

You can't change the position of the health bar.

The best you can do is move it up or down a bit with CivSprite (ask Boco) or remove it (with SpriteGen). Alternatively you could reduce its size to just the health bar and a small space for the unit orders (Catfish has done this nicely) and then include a shield or so separately as part of the unit graphic itself, or use CivSprite to add a civ-colored "mask" to the unit itself.


Oh, and Sarsstock: no, you can't have more cities in ToT.

[Sarsstock]

Even still.... I see a great future for the Blood and Steel Legacy in the realm of ToT.

[techumseh]

It's a good scenario, worth doing in ToT. I'd be happy to advise on tweaks possible in ToT. Go for it!
