E-Mail from FIRAXIS on the matter of the newly released civ3 units

[Diablo, Bro. of Mephisto]

I know that everyone here (including myself) hates it when people post emails constantly. I just thought this was too important to ignore.

I E-Mailed Dan Magaha about the units, asking him if the shots were in-game shots. and a couple other stuff as well, heres his answer:

"The Artwork is not In-Game, there are still renderings of the 3D models the artists are using to create the in-game units."

He also said that there would be more new stuff coming after the Holidays:

"Glad you liked the images. Stay tuned as there is more to come after the Holidays."

he also said that the reason for the 'Panzer Tank' was:

"Thank you for the tip on the Tank, I am aware of the word Panzer, but we wanted everyone to know which kind of Tank it was (for those that don't know there Abrams from there Shermans from there Panzers)."

I typed this word for word, so dont ask me if its accurate to what he really said.

What a great piece of Info!

Sounds like it could support my theories suggested in the main thread. Why else would we need to know what type of Tank it was if there wasn't any other Tank's in the game?

I wonder whether there will be an advance called something like BLITZKRIEG THEORY or LIGHTING WAR PROTOCAL!
