i agree...the unit definitely needs to be more detailed looking than that. Also id just like to say that these units are definately turning out well. At first i didnt know if i liked the idea but now im definately in support of putting them in the game also i really dont like the slow ability but thats just my personal opinion...if it makes the game more balanced to have slow then by all means put it in.

So maybe we could share the work : I suggest that Circon and Elvish Pillager work together ( or against each other :twisted: ) for the Dark Lord's graphics ( it ought to be very impressive, IMHO ), and I will try to draw a nice complete set for the Dark Sustainer ( since some people liked my "undead-healing" animation ).
You asked me to do a unit???
Don't ask me to do units.
Because if you ask me to do units...

Da da da DAHHH!!

OH ! :shock: I mistook myself, I thought you were good at drawing ( seeing your not-in-the-game avatar ). Well, then you will have to comment EP's drawings, Neorice's drawings, Sangel's drawings ... (the three people listed up here, please have a try ! :wink: ). But I still want to draw the Dark Sustainer's graphics and animations : it will be my next avatar :twisted: !!!

Agreed. Anyway if the Dark Lord tried to attack good units, he would be melee-attacked by everyone, which now rebalances well the two powerful abilities, IMO.

Dark adept branches are mages, so their attacks must remain magical, not slow.

The dark adept must have a black cloak =) it would make him look more evil,

though has anyone come to a clear design for this duder? because sometimes on graphic requests I and perhaps others have no idea what the final decision came down to.

yea we definately need a finalized picture or something close to it...we at least need an updated one so that we can suggest changes to the design.

Hi all !

I don't have much time now to do serious graphics for the two level 3 units ( Dark Lord / Dark Sustainer ), so I was wondering if any Graphic designer ( Jetryl, Sangel, Elvish Pillager, Neorice, ... ) would like to try and draw base pictures for the Dark Lord. This would allow everyone to think better about the best design possible. Thanks !

about heals...

Post by Togakure »

its possible to give this unit a new type of skill ("dark sinergy"?) who allow to heal ONLY undead allied units? i think fit better with undead concept... and limit a little when the scenario have allied sides...

Togakure: agree, I think that was the intention from the beginning, but as far as I see, nobody was thinking about effect on allied non-undead-faction units.
