Stan` 5,773 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Dude... that's awesome. could you make a palissade one for gaul villages ? BTW check your PM's Edited July 23, 2014 by stanislas69 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
idanwin 176 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 not sure how realistic, but it could do the job as placeholder. As I'm leaving my computer behind tomorrow I was kinda hurried to give you something to work with.It's kinda weird that those spikes are standing on rocks... Maybe I should add some planks to make the structure look stronger?palisade.zip 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan` 5,773 Report post Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Maybe it should be an iron thing. I mean all the logs put onto an arc of iron with with the top at the same level. Thanks though see you in two days Edited July 23, 2014 by stanislas69 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wraitii 1,311 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 This is very cool .If you do enough wall variations, we could probably add it to the in-game auto-placer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan` 5,773 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 Would be cool. I'll wate for idanwin's return and see what we can do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plumo 183 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 I like the Greek variant, but I'm not that keen on the pallisade wall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GunChleoc 409 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 If you think of the engineering involved, the palisades above the arch aren't rammed into anything, so they wouldn't hold. Maybe let them go all the way down into the irverbed and space them apart a bit, so that the water can flow between them? I was unable to find any references though, and this wouldn't work on big rivers anyway. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan` 5,773 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 What if they were held by ropes ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wraitii 1,311 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 You probably would get a better result by simply thinning the posts at the bottom over water, to have a grid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
idanwin 176 Report post Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) Back already :-)If you think of the engineering involved, the palisades above the arch aren't rammed into anything, so they wouldn't hold. Maybe let them go all the way down into the irverbed and space them apart a bit, so that the water can flow between them? I was unable to find any references though, and this wouldn't work on big rivers anyway.Exactly why I mentioned my doubts about the stability. I thought about leaving out one spike in two at the centre, but I'm kinda a bit afraid it might not get the message through enough. If anyone has ideas, feel free to sketch or make it. I'll give some other stone walls a try tomorrow and let the wooden walls rest until we have some good sketches or references.OMG Helm's Deep would be soooo epic!It (=helm's deep) could probably be done by making the wall segment with the grate separate and giving the bomb unit a ginormous bonus against that segment.

idanwin 176 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) I gave the one from the picture a try, I think it's a lot better like that. And credible xDEDIT: I forgot the picture, silly me! Edited July 29, 2014 by idanwin 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stan` 5,773 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 Nice Remove the two big woods in the water and make the new wall larger instead. Or add other rocks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
