Battle for Westfront *WW2 Era in Early Period of War*
What will I do?
My goal is to create a full World War 2 era in the early war period, with factions like the German Reich, Poland, France, Italy etc. with different strengths and weaknesses.
Every faction will get unique units with their own special profiles, look and upgradepossibility.
You command Infanty, Artillery, Tanks, Vehicles and Airplanes.
After I finished this Era, a campaign and Mappack will follow.
For latest details and news take a look on the last page.
What will you get?
A nearly complete multiplayer-era with:
- 4 Factions
- Over 40 units
- complete idle-, death-, and shooting animation for every single unit
- 20 new sounds
- new symbols
and much more in the future!
Screenshots:

Some examples for units:
German Reich:
France:
Poland:
Italy:

Re: Battle for Westfront
The sprites look good, the Panzerkampfwagen III especially. Though the schutze's right shoulder looks funny. And the MG-34 Schutze looks like he's wearing a wig. (yes, I realize it's an ammo belt)
So, were you planning on creating a modern era?

Sorta on a break from the forums ATM, have been for a while. If I was doing something for/with you and I haven't recently, that's why, I will be back soon hopefully.
Re: Battle for Westfront
Thanks for your compliment.
The MG Gunner and a wig? I dont really see it. And what did you mean with the shoulder of the Schütze?
Yes, I want to create a WW2 Era. The factions I want to create are germans, french, english, polish, russians and finns.

Re: Battle for Westfront
What happened to the Japanese and the Italians? Not to mention the US...and the inclusion of the Finns is intriguing. They certainly had an interesting predicament before and after the war.

Re: Battle for Westfront
Man, this is great... I have been dying to find something like this! You have my support, I'll write you a PM, maybe I could help (be calm, only a little). It is especially nice that you are going to include Poland and Finland Maybe this time someone will finish WW2 addon for wesnoth... I'll definitely keep my eye on your era.
I wish you all the best, take care and keep going! *(RADIO): Period! Do your job soldier. Let's win this!*

The MG gunner's ammo belt that drapes around his neck looks like a wig draping from his helmet. If you darkened it's color it wouldn't, I think.Ruglud wrote:Thanks for your compliment.

And ignore the shoulder, it looks fine upon second look.
And the faction list looks great, by the way.

Re: Battle for Westfront
You might want to look through the forums for some inspiration-many before you have tried and failed with WW2 eras! The art workshop is full of artwork from failed, or unported WW2 add-ons. You might even want to use some of them, or at least draw inspiration. tanks are very popular- here's my favourite by Major:

Re: Battle for Westfront
Thanks for your link and the advice. Ive seen a lot of these dead ww2 eras here... Hope I can finish my one! I want to create my own models and dont steal or borrow them from other projects.
Edit: I change the first post with an overview of my project.

Re: Battle for Westfront
I only posted it in case you wanted to take some inspiration from it, or learn from its style. Major's old art thread has loads of these WW2 sprites. Also, the art should probably go in the Art Workshop thread. BtW, Italians has an "a" in it .Thanks for your link and the advice. Ive seen a lot of these dead ww2 eras here...

Re: Battle for Westfront
Not bad, but polish uniforms were green, never brown. Take a look -> http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/194/p1260897.jpg/
*UPDATE* Ok, I just saw more pics, some polish uniforms are looking ''at least a little brown'', lol. I don't have time now, but I see why you handled them that way.
