At some point could we please have a list of the 86 troop models that will ship with the Field Of Glory II base game ?
Many thanks
Ian

Hi Richard no just the 86 individual unit types. Interested from a scenario creation and modding perspective. Take it that unit 3D skins can be modded etc ?
Thanks
Ian

Actually that wasn't me. I will have to check what I am permitted to reveal. The textures for the units can certainly be modded, but they are considerably more complex than the ones for Pike and Shot so I don't know how easy it will be. Paul59 has already altered some for his Antiochos III campaign, so it must be doable.

Sorry Richard guess I was rather over eager here. Glad to hear that Paul59 is on the case. He has done tome really great work with Pike & Shot which if I remember correctly included the massive extra nations mod.

Maybe do like with the Roman-Cartago army preview... but you can use the main troop type class (heavy infantry, medium...) and list the diferent units... with a special area to talk about weapons and the impact in combat.
In the end in FOG all is about
Troop type
Quality
Weapon
Armor
Drilled-undrilled
Special ability (mount-unmount and place defensive works).

Well it is also about eye candy.
So if the skins are editable or even the models, that would be awesome.
I can't wait three more weeks. It's killing me..
This is the game I've been waiting for since 1998.

These extra details would be nice to have but it sounds to me like a lot of extra work to fit in in the run up to launch. Perhaps a simple list of the model names is more doable ?
