So, I implemented a huge change to heroes many months ago. While I've made a lot of progress, there still remains a lot to be done. Essentially, the player chooses a Hero at the start of the match, and this hero is your civ's leader for the remainder of the match. You can retrain this hero 5 times throughout the match if they are killed. And this Hero's cost increases for each passing Phase. All heroes have these 3 auras standard: "Forced Labor" Nearby Builders construct buildings +10% faster "Supply Lines" Nearby Gatherers +10% gathering rate for all resources "Stalwart Defense" When garrisoned in a Structure or Siege Weapon, the hero gives it a bonus of +2 capture recovery rate Each Hero has his or her own special bonuses and auras. Sample: Hero Aura or Bonus 1 Usually something combat related Aura or Bonus 2 Usually economically related or some kind of other bonus; sometimes a secondary combat aura or bonus Special Technology Selecting this hero unlocks a special technology that is usually related to the hero in some way Upgrade to Mount (or other special state) This is usually unlocked in City Phase Mounts have greater speed, trample aura, extra health, etc. Horse Elephant Chariot ======================================================================= Hero Selection Samples:

Um... at this point why even play the game? Might as well just move some colored blocks around.

Cassivellaunus it is! Thank you!

I would say maybe 1% of depictions I have seen have been the "bare chested" type. Not very many.

We could indeed make an EA-compatible Scythians mod, and then I'd draw assets for DE from that mod?

The Britons Celts of British Isles Above: Cassivellaunus (left), Cunobelin (right) Above: Caratacos (left), Boudicca (right) Above: Brythonic Citizens (left), Celtic Druid-Healer (right) (One of the Britons heroes, Boudicca, in her infantry form) I need help deciding on a 4th (and possibly 5th) Briton hero. I'm thinking a king, chieftain, or notable figure who resisted Julius Caesar's invasion or the later conquest.

I need to organize the references better so we can get some consistent output. Maybe I'll start that task now.

Well, both references are completely nice. The tunic of the guy on the left is great. The shield is nice. The lamellar armor of the guy on the right is nice, as is his belt. I even like their beards and headgear.

In the texture file is fine. Extra props are extra draw calls.
