Just a question about buildings. Is it possible to make the buildings accessible on the battle map? I mean like the general making a last stand on the top of a pyramid when the walls have fallen?

The answer is yes and no. Yes, we are going to work on trying to get the buildings into the battle map, no you can not have your general make a last stad on one. I believe someone, long ago, was trying to make a realistic Rome by using a combination of 3DsMax and messing with some code. In which case we can sore of make something that resembles a building. The only other option might be to make pyramid style of the building active like a defensible wall, but I'm not sure if or how that could be done.

Ossie, are you planning on re-doing every building? If you are, could you help me get the building pics? The ones that are shown when you are in the building scroll and when you view more detailed information on the building.

true murf but you see i think it will be quicker if i consentrate on that rather than sending the files back and forth.Try skinning the mercs, which we can use as rebels but with grey skins. What do you think?

Great. I might be holding us up. CTDs and all You're not the only one facing CTD's these days. But I made more progress this week then the last 3 months, so don't give up hope. It's nice to hear the buildings are coming out fine. Mel, if you would be a RTW character you would have 'The fanatic' as epithet .
