WW2 Unit Graphics

[curtsibling]

The current Russian units are already pretty close to perfection, I would say!



A new Lancaster and Mosquito ( ) would be nice!

I tried some of these new fairline units ingame, and they look absolutely spiffing!
In ToT, they just look so much like board pieces from a classic title like 'Axis and Allies'!!!

I hereby (humbly) request the borrowing of the Tiger/Panther/PzKw-VI for the next update of Dictator?

For a while, I have been putting a new version together, with some new ideas...

And this really got the creativity going again...!

[fairline's massive ego kicks in] actually Harry, the Pz III's, IV's, V's and VI's and the tank hunters aren't mods, they're new from the ground up. The Pz I, II and 38t are obviously my old icons tarted up a bit for ToT.

I didn't mean it that way. The old way of depicting the tanks, which usually massaged the turrets a bit, has been changed. I know they're new.

eivind, you are the KING of MGE conversions... and i am very glad for that, as i also do not play Time on Target... er, Test of Time...

[barocca]

firstly the mge is pallette is NOT full,
there are plenty of spare colour slots remaining,
link to a post with a working pallette displayed

what i would like to see are the british (and american) funny tanks from D-day 1944, crocodile, amphibs, mine sweepers, road layers and bridge layers/ditch crossers (just to name a few)

amphib armoured units, that would add spice to a scenario of d-day/fortress europe

cheers,
B.

@ baroca: I don't think civ will actually use the spare colour slots up to 256 will it?

@harry: sorry bud, I was a bit up myself there!

@curt: use all you want C. There's going to be another version of Dictator?

Heh!

There will always be a new version...!

I am definitely doing a new WW2 scen after Dalek, but
there may be another Sci-Fi or Fantasy scen before it...

I plan to take a new direction with my next WW2 effort,
less units (representing divisions, etc) a new map, and
extra civs. I want to make something that is in depth,
but with all the fun of a board game like 'Axis and Allies'...

A lean and mean scenario, that emphasises gameplay.

Oh! I just came up with a good challenge.

a PBY. I haven't seen any of those the whole time I've been coming to this website.

It'd be good for any scenarios involving the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans in a significant way, given the role that aircraft played in reconaisance efforts.

[curtsibling]

A purely naval Pacific war scen is something that has not been covered much...

Although Patine's epic covered some of the aspect....

[Eivind IV]

Didn't Exile make a Jutland battle scenario? What happened to that?

[curtsibling]

It got stalled midway (if you excuse the pun)...

Hopefully he may pick it back up someday...

[Sarsstock]

Was this a recent endevor by Exile? Even if it dates back afew years I'd love to see what naval units he planned to make use of.

[curtsibling]

Fairline made some nice WW1 era cruisers for it, but they still are reserved, as far as I know...

Stunning artwork as always, guys

Gareth, I thought that perfection can't be improved, but I was wrong!!
