A CALL TO ARMS - SCREENSHOT THREAD
Some screenies, these are all of units added in the last few days.
Kislevite War Wagons: These battle wagons are poor in direct combat, but very tough and carry huge amounts of ammunition so make a durable but mobile attack platform, particularly suited to supporting Kislev's infantry. Thanks go to Parthian Shot and the Amazon: TW team for the cart model.

Spirit Host: These are ghost warriors, recalled to the battlefield by the Vampire counts from the other world and dragged back to fight yet more battles in the service of dark masters. Whilst weak in attack they make an exceptionally durable blocking force as soldiers struggle to damage their forms, shifting in and out of the physical realm.

Araby Djinn Mages - a new skin so these now look much better than in previous versions where they just looked the same as RTW javelineers. The djinn mages are a powerful but short-ranged wizard unit capable of producing fireballs to destroy infantry formations.

Witch Elves - the devotees of the Elven war god, Khaine, these women are happy to shed blood for their lord both on and off the battlefield - and can be used to great effect. Their calls and chanting will help drive Dark Elven forces on in battle, and they have a powerful close combat attack with their serrated, bloodied sacrificial swords.

Dark Elf Dark Riders and Cold One Knights - in the foreground, the Dark Riders are an early medium cavalry force for the Dark Elves, good at fast, aggressive raiding missions, with a good charge bonus but weak if caught in combat. Behind them, their heavy cavalry cousins ride on ferocious sharp-toothed Cold Ones, cold-blooded lizard mounts given saddles and barding. Cold One Knights are both fast and tough, and are an effective counter-cavalry or powerful shock force.

Nice stuffs! :)
Hey Jubal if you have some spare time why dont you upload some more screenies?just a couple of them ,keep the others for surprise
Yeah, I should do, sorry; my free time is... a bit limited at the moment. :P
nice to see the additions to the darkelves, as well as something being done about those wack shields the dark riders have - would really like to see some crossbowmen too, we need those :P
I'm pleased to inform you that you're in luck there - though unfortunately you'll have to cope without the scorpion carts as I needed that slot for the steam tank, crossbowmen and a second variety of ballista will be available. :)
Great new :)
And we want some more screenshots ;D
I agree
Could you maybe make one of the DE crossbows?Or of the Dwarf Organ gun and Flame cannon?
Been doing some work on it this evening, so I'll try and get some new ones done. :)
New Shots 19 July:
Okay, so first here's the new interface, looks less vanilla now:(http://imageshack.com/scaled/large/706/u2qh.png)
Dark Elf Crossbows as requested, they're not great but better than no crossbows I think:(http://imageshack.com/scaled/large/843/ott7.png)
And re-skinned Dwarf elites so they hopefully look less bland (Ironbreakers now have black beards and plain facemasks as well as different shields, the Hammerers are a bit bulkier with a proper beard and a lot more chainmail):(http://imageshack.com/scaled/large/163/rwos.png)
And finally a couple of pictures of Dragon Islanders and Undead beating the hell out of each other :)(http://imageshack.com/scaled/large/40/73ic.png)

Excellent work, my liege! :)
The crossbolts look great so do the Dwarfs.........and you gave a missile attack to the longshield-medium infantry of the DI ? Nice touch there !
They're essentially a kind of archaic light legionary force - they can testudo as well. :)
Oh that would be a great relief when sieging.....
Any other factions people particularly want to see shots of? :)
Tomb Guaaaaaaaaard!!!
Or collectively:Toooooomb Kiiiiings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tha butchers !!!!(........cause I gave you the idea haha)..........and the flame cannon and the death cannon in action

I agree
Maybe you could even make screenshots of battles like Tomb Kings vs Ogres and Dwarfs vs Chaos Dwarfs
Okay, will be next week but I'll get to those as next priority.
Maybe a beastman preview too?
Wouldnt be a bad idea since Beastmen is a new race (the old beastmen wasnt beastmen at all )
