This week Kiril and I keyed a bunch of units together. This is giving every unit a far more unique appearance. I also have a bunch of UI stuff I’m working on that’s still not ready to show.
So first and foremost Kiril has keyed the blade maiden and animated her hair. We picked some color ranges that we think work for her hair and made sure that the shirt was always the opposite color of the hair. I also wanted to show off the fact that you can use an army of entirely the same unit if you want to. This is a tough army to play but its very effective. You can see that the maiden on the left with the red hair has a healing ring so she can heal the others. The maiden in the center has the most weapons equipped so she does the most damage. My Strategy here is to isolate and kill the axeman while blocking his healers from healing him with my tanky maidens. You might notice that you can actually dodge melee attacks if you have given yourself enough space.
Here are some more units we keyed this week. In this GIF I am using a friar to buff the attack of an axeman. This is particularly effective because the axeman can hit 3 units in a line so the extra attack carries through all those units he hits. I also kite the incoming army because if they reached my army at full health they would deal a lot of damage quickly.
That’s all for this week but be sure to check back next Wednesday for more!
