Kingdom of Massylia Preview
« on: August 18, 2011, 10:06:19 AM »
Hi all. :)

After much discusion between our team earlyier in development, we finally decided to include this faction, even at one point we scrapped the faction Numidia but after a lot of talking and decision making, we chose to inlude this great faction.

A few reasons for this, a while after our start date, Numidia do become a strong faction even challenging Roma under the rule King Juba. Also having a faction right next to Carthage, makes the campaign for Carting a threat in Africa. We also feel that their kind of warfare was unique to the meditrainean and it would be a shame without creating a realistic portrayal of this.

Massylia unit rooster shall mostly compromise of light missile infantry and cavalry. With one or two well armoured elites and later in campaign can recruit a roman legionaire variant.
 
We have a few units to show now and we shall update soon with a few more pics ;)

Archers


Massylian Spearmen


Massylian General


Massylian Heavy Skirmisher


Libyan Lancer Cavalry


Numidian Cavalry


Numidian Skirmishers


Numidian Slingers


We hope you like these pics. We shall update in a few days. With more regional units and such. We shall also be releasing a preview soon on our new building systems :)

Once again i would like to thank
Milner-team skinner
Algaman-team skinner and modeller
Dark_horse_spirit-animations
 
For all their help on this faction. A lot of work went into this for instance if you look at the pics, the units have really hands with all complete fingers instead of a plank. All the best, please comment on what all you think

Also if you notice, thats the new libyan cavalry, it has already been changed :)

The lybian cav looks sick! As well as almost all the units... very cool looking. I'm just curious... why are the Massylian Heavy Skirmishers and the Massylian Spearmens with the EB pike animation? It's odd, just sayin'

Cool preview anyways, totally made my day :P
