Onagers did not have wheels, except maybe in Medieval times. Make it buildable in the field. Make it the only siege weapons (except siege tower?) that can be built in this way. Requires an Arsenal to be built first.

www.imagine.art I'm making these with the free tier. I'd get a paid subscription, but I'm poor. Lol

I think it would need to be a specially trained AI for that. Unfortunately I'm just an end user instead of an AI programmer or I'd definitely get on it. My goal would not be to replace artists, but to give them a new tool. Unit textures are pretty easy to make by hand though.

The Spartan pikemen in DE become available if you choose Cleomenes for your hero

That's a fair assessment. I personally enjoy 30-45 minutes matches vs. 20-30 mins matches. It comes from the good old days 20+ years ago when I was in an Age of Kings clan and we'd host massive hour-long multiplayer team deathmatches. I think splitting the economics away from the soldiers allows you to compartmentalize better and allows the mod to give soldiers more interesting combat-oriented abilities, etc.

I think I will introduce XP and ranks for heroes and make "ranks" for regular units into technologies.

I'm making the Hero Medallion bigger in DE, but I need to move the chat down slightly so that it doesn't overlap. Any idea which line in which file?

Fast hoplites. In DE, hoplites have different stats from "standard spearmen" plus a Shield Wall aura that boosts the armor of other nearby hoplites. This aura's range is short enough that usually you need to use the Phalanx/Shield Wall formation for it to apply to as many nearby hoplites as possible.

to show what @LetswaveaBook is talking about:

Should make them move with the animations. Any way to make them twist with the animations, the way the capes do, @Stan`?

Can you think of a strong 4th hero from the extended list? I'm trying to give each civ at least 4 to choose from. ¿Puedes pensar en un cuarto héroe fuerte de la lista extendida? Estoy tratando de darle a cada civilización al menos 4 para elegir.

Or you could try them in Delenda Est. Some of the concepts used in Delenda Est's Spartans have made it into A27.

I could turn them into 3 separate civs: Iberians, Celtiberians, and Lusitanians.

I use OpenGL for both. No mods enabled. I can confirm this does not occur with Vulkan, but a significant portion of players will use OpenGL. Alpha 26 (desirable) Current SVN (overbrightened) Alpha 26 (desirable) Current SVN (overbrightened) You'll see in Alpha 26 these sprites blended better into the terrain and are aesthetically pleasing, but now in SVN there's an overbrightness and contrast to their textures which makes them not blend nearly as well. The textures have not changed. Rendering them did.

I might try my hand at this horse face armor piece

Working on hero and support unit portraits. Of course, they will be helmet-less, as the AI has a lot of trouble with historical accuracy when it comes to helmets, armor, etc. I chalk that up to the absolute glut of fantasy and medieval training imagery on the internet.

Plus Musk is using any excuse he can to back out of it. lol

lol, like Hell he did. Maybe in his own mythology/self-made-man lore. Whomever wins, we lose. lol
