Age of Strategy Forums

Will it work? I think few tattoos or pink scars on arm or chest is acceptable

Dont forget stone age men also drew on cave walls, so that can b used to utilize player colour

This is the one I came up with the shadow idea.

Lighter

Even lighter

How about solid color shadow?

The image size will b 64x64 right? Also i m not sure if game engine can read transparent player colour pixels

Looking great

It would be nice if you have a discord server of this.

This will definitely make things easier.

If you are planning to continue this, I will tell you that will need to use the 64x64 format not 32x32.

Stratego don't accept 32x32 anymore.

Units can be drawn on 32px size but they should be group in a 64px like in AOW.

Oh. Thats a new info..

If a single caveman is this big then wat about tanks and spaceships? I say keep the last 32 pix size caveman but resize canvas to 64 px

What are you doing? Just make it 64x64 with 3 Cavemen in it smh. Just like AoG, AoMw, AoD etc, Since you'll take their images and put it into yours anyways.

Like cornering 32x32 in 64x64 or centering it . Or is he scaling up the grids? I actually didn't get you.

:

I meant for the single unit image

Mmm. Centering i hope

Why make a single unit tho? Wouldn't a squad be better?

I suppose it should be a Squad. Who would send 1 person holding a club to war?
Infantry should be 2 or 3 depending on what type.

Mm.. I think he doesn't play AoWw or AoG.

Fighter

I do, been quite a while since i quit Aoww . And AoG is currently with single player and less active with mp
The image.... So did the previous 64x64 (like forts, and bigger castles in AoS)should now scaled to 128x128?

Ok i didnt understand b4, anyways building size should not b compared with the limit of canvas allowed in game but rather with the size of each human unit u want to implement

Like make a building look like it is 2 storeys high relative to the caveman standing in the tile next to it, that way the overall of graphics of the game map will also look more beautiful if everything follows a standard size (set by u)

I really like it

Rock hurler

I made it front facing. The side view looked wierd. Good?

Rock Hurler? Is that a ranged unit for the nomadic units?

Image: The Rocks would look weird if it was moving, and the shadow seems a bit too large. Aside from those, it looks ok.

Yes the ranged unit.

As in projectile? Then the rock hurler #troll_orcs projectile will look good.

I meant the ones on the ground.

But, if the unit has 1 or 2 speed then i think it is fine.

My plan is to keep it consume act on movement. So, i think the strangeness solved. 3 speed actually i planned. May be , balanced once the balancing starts.

village elder

(half regen) ability , (elder advice) aura
The fearsome fighter of the past. In his old age he collect food and herbs for healing warriors and he often tell tales of his past fights with wild animals.

He doesn't look that old. Probably give him a staff and a beard to make him look like the elderly. Team Color on some parts at the staff would work well.
