Overall desire for the Order?

Hero: StormSaint, leader of the Knighthood of Aurora Argentum. An Overall unit that is capable of holding his own. He is well known as a devout and protective individual who seeks to forge new alliances and unite the world against evil.
Units: Holy based, meant to Augment the Human and Warfell Armies, as well as maybe adding a new style of fighting.
Storyline: 1 of 2 theories as to incorporate the Knighthood into Age of Fantasy
1. StormSaint and his trusted Retinue ended up unknowingly travelling through an interdimensional portal also called a "Gate"
2. The Order was founded to stop the Undead that plague the land of Age of Fantasy, they will help the Empire and Warfell against the Undead, the deamons summoned by them, and those who are seen as accomplices, such as the nefarious warlocks of the Veriengar clan, who have been sharing secrets with liches to learn the spell Hell of Pain by Sacrifice.
3. The 2 previous backgrounds can be put together. The Order can Establish their autonomy, as Staunch allies to the empire and Warfell, an find out the cause of the Gates. Perhaps this can lead to answers to the recent sightings of deamons and other sinister creatures...

Overall desire for the Order: I would like to be able to play with these units with other people. I want it to add new avenues of specialized fighting in the game. This would also aid in the creation of my Campaign. I hope that I am not the only one who is desirous to crush skulls of death knights and plague Priests

Who knows, this could make the opportunity to create other guilds and orders... Elves specialized in killing orcs, scaledfolk designed to kill humans, or orcish dwarf-slayers...

Symbol for the Knighthood of Aurora Argentum.

As it is the tech needed to research to recruit them.

Before I forget this one too.

Skirmisher: None
Spearmen: Argent Sverdestave
Infantry: Argent Guardian, Goven Herløv
Archer: Argent Crossbowman
Knight Cavalry: Cavalier
Spear Cavalry: Emissary

Dragon: Celestial Dragon, Etherial Storm Dragon

@StormSaint373 can I post your flag and backstory on Instagram?

Yes , you may.

But please note that these ideas come from my personal gameplay in Dungeons and dragons. All units here in are custom-made and these are "a part of me". I do not wish for others to steal or otherwise alter my ideas or stories. This sharing of information is meant to aid in the lore of Age of Fantasy.

Thank you for your consideration and for consulting me for permission on this subject.

Also note the credit that was given by other forumers regarding this subject and the content therein.

Ok gotcha
Thanks

For Lore purposes what would do they worship
( make one up if you want too )

The people of the Order of Aurora Argentum Look to the heavens for aid. The things they see are stars that form constellations, they believe that these are signs of what actions to take. Since the stars change position, especially radically when prophecies come to pass, they see them as directions from the Gods.

Hence their banner is a 4-tipped star with a dawn-burst in the center (the sun counts as a star).

Their main magic is Etherial. Their magic revolves around light, and they believe that there is a balance between the light (healing) and Storms. The storms of their homeworld meant that the God's were displeased. Evil has spread and it must be stopped. So the God's have appointed individuals who are pure in heart and deed, Saints, to use their power to stop the unnatural evils of the world before it consumes life itself.

Natural relations (General Races)
Humans(+): being that many are humans to begin with, they forge alliances easily, if the cause is just.
Elves(+): both have a common goal, to protect life, while their priorities may differ, they cherish the same things, but in different ways
Dwarves(+/-): they are able to relate by their almost unsurmountable sense of honor, but wealth or the laws of mortal affairs mean little to the order.
Scaledfolk (+/-): they have little interaction. So many greet with suspicion and mistrust. There are few instances where certain actions could end in outright hostility. (ie: sacrifices)
Orcs(-): their views often clash, one bent on conquest, the other on perserving life. Thus, there are many battles between the orcs and the Knighthood.
Undead(-): being that they are unnaturally perserved by the dark magics that were twisted from true light (Etherial magic). They are the sworn enemies of the Knighthood. Not to mention, they are rumored to have caused the rifts (Gates between the demonic/devil planes and the world of mortals).

Their magic comes in 2 forms.

Etherial (Light): used for healing and defense. It is mentioned to remove unnatural afflictions
Etherial (Tempest): comes in the form of "Celestial Lightning". It comes from the sky. It strips enemies of their powers as well as dealing damage to them.

So in short, they worship the Stars, they see them as signs from the God's of Light.

Last Unit

Silverite-Reinforced Ballista, Silverite Ballista

Or Just

Argent Ballista

Cost: 6
Hp: 20
Att: 13 (AOE 1)
Range: 7
Armor: 3
Pierce Armor: 7
Speed: 2
Vision: 8
Acton/Turn: 2
Spell Resistance: 100%

Passive Effects: Burning/Etherial Weapon

Bonuses:
Dragons (250%) Think of the pain that a high velocity javalin spiraling toward you could cause
Infantry (150%) Originally Designed to wipe out battlions and hordes of these types of units
Giants (50%) Large Targets
Buildings (1%) Large Progectiles, but not primary purpose

Miss Chances:
Cavalry: 50%

Mages: 10%, (They have strange magic that diverts progectiles away from them)
Priests: 10%,

I guess everything is done here, I guess it has everything it needs.

Why no miss chance to flying?
They are flying around and such and that Ballista is no homing missile

Storm saint can you post all stats on first page so that when you enter the topic you don't have to hunt for the units? Thx.

After that, if ready, I'll post on the ready page. (Might make a new section for subraces.)

I'll see what I can do...

How do you post images B4 units?

Via links (Lynx )

Use "picture icon"and past link there.
One by one..

, I'll try.

Wait Humans are getting 2 sub races?

Yes. Makes the ai more of a challenge. Plus gives you more units to choose from.
Btw, Elves, dwarves, and Undead are getting 2 as well.
Orcs and scaledfolk are negotiable.

Orcs i think also will get 2 at least:
Uruks and giants (trolls, ettins, hamletbacks)

Giants?

Have a look and tell me what you think.

Which do you prefer?
