ICTC: The Bastion (TDL's Entry fo 2nd ICTC Contest)

Ohemgee! I am sorry for posting pics of immense size! I did not realize that with that shady background behind the size will be ten times bigger o_O I will rather extend other parts PNGs all the way Anyhow, a notification: hear he, hear he! DONE Voila! My town in all its beauty... Some things are subject to change, but it is kind of fully complete already

NOTE: Oh, that music is so nostalgic... *stretches arms towards G3 game CD*

What's with all the commotion?



Genie
Thanks for the tips It looks kinda different from the first one, but I kinda dislike that people will not be able to vote for people's proposals (according to what i read - depends solely on the jury).

Anyhow, I was looking forward to seeing such a contest and such a commotion - I'd like very much to see many high-quality posters and posts down here.

It was in the first period of my HC era, for 3 months I was just a guest (not member) then I become a member and when I was still new (as member) you just disappear, but your ideas were great , like Sindbads and my ides

wow, looks good. its also how i imagined Slyath would want to be portrayed (not as the scheming, unpredicable, confusing dragon that i've made him)

a nomad faction sounds and looks cool!

i would portray the nomads as the huns or the mongols, in the style of Genghis Khan! living most of their life in the saddle, and in yurts, it sounds like nomads.

Looks good so far TDL. You have a consistent analytical approach that takes the properties of the new world into account, and you faction therefore fits very well into the new world - from what I've seen so far. A question - which race do you work with - are we talking Human, or something else? There have been a couple of sugestions quite similar to this a time back, working with Centaurs, which I personally think is a great concept for a nomadic people.

And btw. - the number of creatures in your prelimenary analysis adds up to 15 ... is that a typo, or ...?

not a typo, alci... i *stole* hydra's analythic (pronunciation) thinking...

casters can both be shooters, thus more than necessary seem to be there...

i am creating a human faction - storyline will show my reasons... i implemented my own as neat a possible...

this will also make an even number of human factions (4)...

I'd imagine the creatures would come in a future update. After all, picking creatures to match the racial idea of the town isn't easy. I this from personal experience.

Speaking with wisdom, fofa

Creatures should be the last addition to make as inapt line-up would make the town crumble.

Regarding the storyline and the way of posting, I would like to know if such manner of posting the town is ok... I am planning to unify all the sections in a certain manner - thus, each part may take quite long to load with slower connections...

And the storyline is almost finished =) Campaign is the only thing it now lacks

To be honest, I had originally intended my Sorceress faction to be an all female faction. . .even including harpies. But then I realized that the hero type of a Valkerye would've better for that town. And thus, I made changes.

ok, cool!

i've included female ogres as a creature in the Stampede, and orc females as a creature in the stronghold, just to make it clear to everyone that they are equal! but thats my personal choice.

Objects, animals, or people don't necessarily have to be worshiped. Ideas could be worshiped as well.

As for the creature image, I'm more of the kind who'd want the entire package.
