Just a small rant from a Pole-Polish cavalrymen actually were equipped with rifles and pistols, it's an untrue legend that they charged tanks with lances. It was only a tradition to hold a saber, and those were only ornamental :P
But don't mind me, it's still a marvelous work :)

Edit: oh look, even wikipedia say so: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_cav ... rld_War_II
Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

@Dunno: thanks for your post!

Yes, I know it. But the sprite looks great with these "tradition". ^_^ In his profil he will attack with a rifle. :wink:
Thanks for your compliment!

I like the way you've characterised the factions. However, on a different note, I feel the anti-tank gun should be bigger, as it seems about as big as your motorbike. Also, make sure all the factions have a trademark unit, a distinctive unit that you won't find any where else.

May I still meet my memory in so lonely a place
Between the streams and the red clouds, hearing the curlews, Hearing the horizons endure.

I said it before, and I say it again: The units are not final. Be patience, I work as fast and as good as I can. ^_^

News: I finished the next 3 units for Poland. The Porucznik, the wz.31 mortar and the wz.1897 howitzer. You can take a look on the sprites at first post.

Furthermore, I created the first playable version of "Battle for Westfront". :mrgreen: I will play it a few times with friends to take a look on the balance and maybe bugs. If we cant find major problems, I will upload the era for a chosen few here this weekend. :wink:

Content of the pre-alpha:
- 2 factions (Deutsches Reich, Poland) with different ways of playing
- 2 special commanders, one for each nation
- another 14 individual units
- Every unit with a special profil, description and unique attacks
- First balancing


Let me know what you think about it and maybe, why do you want play the first version. ^_^

Kind regards

Wow.Neorice used to boast he could make a unit in five minutes, and a faction in two hours. Either you're attempting to rival that claim or you've been working non-stop for two days. The pose of the porucznik seems a little weird-it looks like he's thrusting his body backwards. However, I especially like the mortar.

I remastered the Porucznik sprite. Hope you like it, now! :wink:

I worked nearly non-stop. :whistle:

Definitely better, though he does seem to be leaning to one side. However, it is better :) .
