I agree with T41 with this the weapon I really like are swords because they can have really beautiful hilts. Armour can be design in variety of ways are designs. I can understand that not everything can have every piece of armour because that did happen in historic times. Will units have specific unit they are really good against and one unit that is really poor a bit like rock,paper and scissors?

Well that's terrible. Armor is usually my favorite visual aspect of fantasy games.

As long as the battle system is relatively straight forward, leading to a relatively simple unit design.



Its all good gravy.



As that is kinda what got me down in ES, the amount of math needed kinda surpassed me and made the combat extremely jarring.

I second the questions raised by @supertartiflette



Will trebuchet, siege towers, ballista, siege beasts/golems/automata and the like be in the game? Will it be possible to build watch towers to increase smiley: detection, non-city forts to defend strategic positions, checkpoints to stop scouts, etc?





Also, the art shows the Vaulters equiping shields and crossbows. Will this actually be possible for some units in that faction in the game?



This stuff continues to look excellent. I'm really excited.

With the list of weapon equipement I see nothing that suggest siege unit. Is units specially strong against buildings are planned ?

Also scepter and staff suggest spellcaster ?

Also, I don't know if it's the good thread to ask but I would like buildings to strengthen our territory against invasion and control the enemy's army movements, like walls and forts.
