the Taki+Imperial era doesn't work on case sensitive systems as the path to Units and Images is uppercase, changing it to lowercase solves the problem. Another way is to specify the Units directory uppercase in the cfg file. I don't know where to do that for the images directory though, it might be hard-coded.

On a first glance the warrior seems too cheap and the archer too expensive. For a balanced faction you'd probably also need to add some kind of water or flying unit.

Thanks.. fix the bugs now. reduced the warrior's hp and the archer's cost.

It sounds as if you think that ninjas don't fly. In reality, most of their time is spent flying.

Sorry!

You need EITHER a flying or a water unit, not both.

Damn, my arendians have neither.

Hmm I could add the naga mage line I made for my campaign. But probably not as they would have no reason to ally with them.

I would suggest one of these two options:

Tengu Youth -> Tengu Warrior -> Tengu Elder

Dragon Whelp -> Dragon -> Elder Dragon

Wow,I'd love to see playable dragons, I vote for them

Hmm, then I could change my arendian hunter description from used to hunt dragons, to still hunt dragons.

ps, turin did you read those when i sent the units to you?[/quote]

There's more than enough dragons and gallivating around as is. Tengu, OTOH, would rock...

Dragon....

*thinks*...

Hey! WHat about the white ones that have tiny wings but are very long?? In the hex, it can be curled to fit in...

Dragon Soul ->Dragon Spirit -> Dragon Kami

"A stranded Dragon Soul was found by a monk, and was freed, but the soul decided to return the favour...."

Whats the word of Dragon in Japanese, Seiryu?

Dragon Soul Cost 17 gold hp18 moves 10. resistance, 50% to all but fire and cold, exp 18 (grows in powers, the more it consumes.)
5-3 (Cold) ranged

Then Dragon Spirit will have 11 move, hp36
6-4 (Cold) ranged
4-4 wind (impact)

Dragon kami hp48
9-4 (cold) ranged
7-4 wind. (impact)

Just some quick ideas. but these are opposite of drakes..

Here's another idea: Give the Japanese a tengu and the Chinese a dragon.

That's preferable!

Seiryu, What do you say? (Just have to draw that flying unit.... whatever that fits into "japanese"...

Looks great!!!

But the only problem is doing the other levels for these units too.

OK the dragon is for lv. 2
The tengu: as you like (I prefer lv. 2, and for lv. one I'll do it.)

EDIT: Here the 4 headed dragon. and the baby dragon.

REEDIT: 4 headed dragon in blue
