"Borrowed objects" game

Time for a forum game!

One thing that always bothered me a little about WoG was the "borrowing" from various other games to create new objects and graphics. I must admit I used to do this a bit myself a few... hundred years ago (), to make some hero portraits for Two Islands, but tastes are a little sharper now. Even when everything else was refined and polished in 3.58, these remained in the mod.

Here is a photobucket with a few of the WoG objects I mean:

So, keeping in mind that I haven't played Disciples since 2004, can anybody help me identify which of these objects originated elsewhere, or contribute other info if you find something else ripped out of another game?

I know these two are straight out of Age of Empires, for instance:

This question comes a bit late, I came over all those objects several times when browsing other games, but can't remember which. I know for sure that this:



is hand made, all others are ripped. 4 months ago I could provide infos about each of those objects, then I deleted all sources. Darkloke surely had the sources, but he left. In 1.08 patch all sources are indicated at the end of the def still.

These are from Disciples: Sacred Lands:










Probably a few others too.

Also there are more that are not in the album.

I can tell you that these:





Are from Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings.

And these:





Plus others in the same style are from Cossacks: European Wars.

The rest, I don't know.
