Instead of the loud purple color in the portraits, heroes can have a nice light blue background as shown. Boudicca there for inspiration.

I encourage you to continue this. You can finally make all of the hero portraits consistent for the first time ever. My only critiques: 1. I think they should be wearing their head gear (Vercy needs his own helmet modeled still), and 2. make sure the outputted images are at 256x256.

Edit: We need Battle for Middle Earth 2 battalions.

I have now implemented this thanks to @Freagarach @wraitii @Angen and the team. By training Cleomenes, Perioikoi Hoplites and Spartiate Hoplites are swapped for Perioikoi Phalangites and Reformed Spartiate Phalangites. Also, by training Cleomenes you get access to Stone Walls. Training the Classical heroes keeps the hoplites and doesn't unlock Stone Walls (the option doesn't even show up). -> ->

The idea I think was to make the circuit of walls more important. Players could still "draw" out wall segments like they do now, but the pre-designed wall curtain would be almost wonder-like in cost and construction.

I wouldn't make every single beam into a prop, but maybe every 3 beams could work. lol

That could work, but what about stone walls?

Hmm, interesting solution. I think AOM went even further though and had terrain analysis and swapped in "bent" wall segment models to conform to the terrain. Worked okay for the time. It would certainly require more art work, but would look better.

I think wall towers should be about 15% taller too, to help with aesthetics on hilly ground.

Gotta use the correct font weight in the code?

Thanks to the map resize patch I was able to resize the Saharan Oases map!

brit_infantry_swordsman_e works just fine for me. Maybe try deleting ur cache.

I just committed the Turret fix to github.

I'd use the fancier textures.

It only affects entities with visible garrison points, like walls.

I've always heard it called a turn based system. Never heard of "shift" system.

Those arent even the right horse models.

That texture on the right is nice!

The fix seems to work on my end.

Yeas this is how it should be.

Okay, then he's talking about D2300.... Why you obfuscating brev?

Depends. If you just want to create 2 or 3 new biomes now for A24, and then all the rest for A25, that's up to you. I just thought there was already plenty of other things holding A24 back. lol The ones we add to A24, like India, need to be new biomes and not updated old ones. We don't want to have to update all the random maps yet until the entire biome/terrain overhaul is complete.
