Age of Strategy Forums

As mentioned here viewtopic.php?f=26&t=6240, the starting idea was to make an undead unit riding half horse, but ended after many discussions on the chicken legged horses... Well here they are. So i used the chicken horse as base, undeadfied it (actually was the oposite, but this isn't the case), put a skeleton on it and gave a poleaxe to the skeleton... With the images done. Then made the stats based on the stats of the axe knight from AOS and undead knight, i wasn't very sure about what bonuses it would have since axe knight doens't shows its bonuses in game, so we decided to make the first mounted anti-building unit, but bonuses are up to change since poleaxes can stab, slash and smash.

Nice

Chicken Horse Knights Unite!

Well, looks like undead are finally living up to having better cavalry.

They already do.

Are you serious?!
Stop. THIS. NONSENCE!!!

Whaaaa???

A *cough* unique *cough* *cough* idea.

A stupid idea.
And if this will come live i will drop aof.

No kidding.
Also same is for neutral "chicken horses".


Seriously. Someone who was overdrunk (i won't mention him but he has dragon on the avatar and he really doom for sanity) tried to make a chimaera of chicken and horse.

We could use undead poleaxeman if chicken-horse doesn't work...

Poleaxeman?

Also you can use this for age of UnReality or something like that where most crazy ideas are put in.
But for AoF suggest more sane ideas. Or it will become compeletely weird and will drop down download rates and installations.

It is rather unique.

Actually some people like a little randomness every now and then from fantasy games. Otherwise this becomes to generic of a game. With nothing standing out as its own.

It already IS standing as its own.

1. Completely different system of unit categorisation and bonuses.
2. Different producing variant: no resources (stone/wood/gold/gems/crystals/etc..). Only factories, tcs and turns.
3. Difference in races.
4. Different upgrade system for each race.
Not like in wc3 for example where EACH GODDAMN RACE has blacksmith and blacksmith-like upgrades.

Even though I joined the spam on Discord, I was thinking of that as a joke. Putting it in seems rather wierd. Those stats aren't very unique btw.

Exactly how? Every race we have is like that of other games. Half of units are based on other games, our animals lack any fantasy uniqueness of our own. Fantasy worlds could have anything work, heck most mythological creatures were based on animal hybrids, some of which were based on deer hybrids with other animals. (Yes Lynx, yours was like most other mythological creatures which were based on deer hybrids.)

Also just an idea but i never saw war ostriches.

From one side original, from other not ridicilously extremly crazy weird.

Mak, What.. else... Would... You... Call... A... Skeleton... With... A... poleaxe?

I daresay that this idea should be at least considered!

The chicken-horse idea was probably cocieved from Final Fantasy XIV from the War Chickens, but they liked the idea of horses as well.

THUS... THEY HAD THE INNOVATIVE IDEA TO THROW THE 2 TOGETHER!

HOW ELSE DID ALL OF THESE FANTASY RACES COME ABOUT? THIS RIGHT HERE!

It may seem stupid at first@Makazuwr, but it may be the most original idea ANYONE on this forum has come up with.

I understand its unique but a chicken horse?

You realize thats pretty much already a thing?

FF has a chocobo that's pretty much that but they have abilities and some of them can fly ( they have 3 variants

This variant has low damage but has good healing capabailities This variant has moderate damage with Disenchant abilities This variant has high damage and that's it All 3 are fast and can be mounted

Besides lynx's deer-for people but this one seems more likely to be added at the moment.

Did you try using this for your images?

(those are just big chickens not chicken horses)

It is actually a halberd called.

And it is a bit WAAAY TOO original and as i said if this will be implemented than i will drop AoF because sanity will leave it.

I'd rather return to AoS with whole head.

@Savra, what? Deer-what peapole?
Satyrs? Or those wild riders?

I was just trying for a 2nd option

Ok, if this is causing so much problems then just make it a zombie version of this with a skeleton riding it.

Remember the beast folk topic with the deer Fox hybrids image set?

Ah. I've lost in it.
