Nice.

Silly campaign: well, that'd be unique if added.
Im still waiting for the Celtic faction update, and possibly a new phone. I will probably not make another Campaign until then. My tablet is working but broken.

Well, it could change or not. but when i really compare it to other skins this had the most fantasy details. It's up to u whether u like to change it or not, im fine either way, it's just a little fantasy looking due to the green outfit and the leaf equipment.

ok, it is fine for me, but a guitar and amplifier/speaker is a way different cup of tea

Is there anyway of making certain skins Fun Games only?

currently there is no such option

Shame, we almost had an AoS band there. Quaddys bard, we have a drummer, the Aenaetor on saxophone and chanting monks on backing vocals. And I'm sure the Amazon Blowdart dude could put some holes in his pipe and use it as a flute

(Better move this to Off Topics, Dev or Mods, just incase I start talking nonsense all night )

Hyu, your spy is growing on me, it get's funnier each time I see it My original thought was literally just a big cardboard box with eyes, but yours is gloriously sillier

Alright.

Is spy on a barrel or a cardboard box a good skin?
I kinda want it tbh.

Quaddy, a barrel is an even better idea!!! You thinking of one of those barrels with no bottom that you can lift up and walk along and pop back down again?

Yes and it has a hole to peek on. Saw it on random things.
Tho, i doubt i can draw a perfect barrel. We need the map editor structure Barrel sprite in order to create this. We can just add a hole in the barrel facing right and 2 feet from below.

That has a medieval theme so it seems it is allowed.

Hear hear! An olde barrelle of ale, t'is most fitting m'lord

As stratego already stated - skins should have looks, that would be accepted as regular unit (if it wasn't already there).
But I don't see any reason why not bring them all ( those that size would be OK) as map editor units.
Creepy herbalist fit's haloween thematic ideally. Funky spy can be used as a joke anywhere.
There is also one other advantage to such solution - stats/abilities can be hand picked (or created anew, but that's more work).

Guitarist however is really nice. Maybe it deserves being made fun unit?
Maybe with some sound based damaging/buffing/debuffing abilities (e.g. bard songs, senator demoralise and sound graphics for ranged attack).

Im okay with it being a Fun unit.

Sound effects: NICE, when basic attacking or using abilities it would have an electric guitar sound, i like this idea
