niektb Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Time for a fresh update from our Medieval mod.The Vikings have been renamed to Norse as that seems a more accurate representation to the faction we have in mind to create.Welcome to Hvanndalir... Hvanndalir is the name of a beautifully located town on an Island in the North Sea. Isolated as it is, the Norse inhabitants that colonized the island face a challenge to stay alive and build a thriving town. Let us take a look at this island that some of you already might have seen. (with the difference that it is winter now).A blacksmith has been built (by Stanislas69) and you can see that the smith is doing some fine labour (yes, it is animated):When we turn around we'll see the local Norsemen carry their newly created weaponry (also created by Stanislas69):Some of the accompanying portraits:Now let's walk to the harbor, this building has been rebuilt from the ground (by Stanislas69) and the wharf is now able to build larger ships then before:Soon, the island will grow to small for this growing town and they will need to explore and colonize new areas. Do you know whom they might discover? (Buildings are created by Stanislas69)That's it for this update. Keep in touch for more news! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn the Shallow Minded Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Excellent work. The assets look very good. The only thing I would advise is that the shields be enlarged. As of now they do not seem sufficiently large to make a firm shield wall. Otherwise I would say that the team has done a great job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catalanoic Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Can we use this mods in the Mod Selection of SVN? Maybe in Alpha 17 release? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niektb Posted September 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) You can use these mods in SVN. If we would package a release for Alpha 17 it would be playable in A17.Does no one know what the civilization in the latest image is?

niektb Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 In the time of Charlemagne they are still called "Franks". (Charlemagne was also Emperor of the Frankish Empire) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Druide Gaulois Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 All of the graphics are looking nice, fellas. I'm looking forward to contribute with more concepts. By the way, besides the Norse and the Franks, what's the next civilization in production line? I sugest the Arabs, they were pretty relevant by the time the game is set in.

niektb Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 We actually haven't decided yet. (Since the Norse aren't finished yet and the Carolingians/Franks just started.)It could be either Byzantines, Saxons, Arabs (or something else ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Mostly whatever has references. I have a full carolingian village ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Druide Gaulois Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 I've seen the illustration you posted, Stan, and it made me more inclined to work in the Franks. Please tell if you have any building in mind that you'd like to have a concept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) Mmmh Now that I think of it, I don't think I've seen a blacksmith. Could you draw one ? Edited September 9, 2014 by stanislas69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Druide Gaulois Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Sure thang. I'll draw some models and you decide wich one is best. Extra references (besides the village drawing you posted) would be very welcome . Do you also need barracks, by the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
