Mod - Atreides/Harkonnen/Cymek

[Inoculator9]

Is this right?

Atreides - League of Nobles

Harkonnen - Thinking Machines

Ordos - Cymeks

[Apollyon]

are you going to be changing a lot for this mod or just kind of re-assigning the units to different houses?

[Inoculator9]

He seems to just want to reassign, but I think he should get someone to do textures. The kinds of textures he'd need for this I could probably do them, just silver or gray kinda things.

[Apollyon]

well simplicity is sometimes the best route.

As for the textures if he were willing to learn he might garner some useful skills from making them himself.

PS: sorry supreme for addressing this impersonally (i.e. to inoculator)

[Inoculator9]

True, the best lesson is the lesson you learn yourself. But you should never be ashamed to ask for help ;).

[Emperor Harkonnen]

Is this right?

Atreides - League of Nobles

Harkonnen - Thinking Machines

Ordos - Cymeks

hm...I had it like this before:

Ordos - thinking machines

Atreides - Cymek

Harkonnen - League of Nobles

but your idea is better. Thinking machines don't care about how stuff look, and the harkonnen buildings are ugly. so that would be cool.

and I still think the titans should be devastators in the cymek team.

Sorry, but I don't got time to learn about textures, I don't want to seem ungrateful, if someone wants to learn me how to do it. it is just that I got much to do in school, and it takes much time to learn such sutff.

so if someone could do it for me it would have been nice.

besides I don't assume I have good enough programs to texture.

[Inoculator9]

Ok. Then instead of the Titans, the Spacing Guild can be replaced with the Sorceresses. The NIAB Tank acts like the lightning gun is psychic energy. And you could replace the Guild Maker with an fedykin design.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

ok, could you tell be a bit more about what Ix, Tleilaxu, Guild should be?

[Inoculator9]

Just to sum up:

House Ix - Narcotics Guild (sounds cool)

The Suk are those pharmecutical guys, you can just give them infantry with drug enhanced strength. Take the Tleilaxu Scientist and a super Sardaukar.

Bene Tleilaxu - Tlaxu Flesh Merchants

DOn't really have to change anything with this, except give them Slavers as an infantry unit. This can use the harkonnen infantry graphics.

Spacing Guild - Sorceresses

The NIAB Tank could be called Sorceresses Energy Tank, because it could be said that the energy discharge is psychic energy. The Guild Maker can be replaced with an Elite Fremen, and it could be said that the weapon the sorceress carries is a psychic amplifier. It is pretty similar to the descriptions in the book.

[Apollyon]

it is unnecessary to use the niab tank if you just want a lightning effect gun

make the muzzle for the weapon GUPlasmaFlash and make the bullet conceptual.

It doesnt look quite like the guniabgun but it still looks lightning-like and pretty impressive.

[Inoculator9]

That's true, but I thought that the NIAB Tank would still be appropriate.

[Apollyon]

Well I havn't read the butlerian jihad so I suppose I can't really say.

[Inoculator9]

It wasn't in the Butlerian Jihad, I just thought it might be an appropriate unit for them.

[Apollyon]

well ok =)

[Emperor Harkonnen]

ok I'll get back to those three sub houses a little later.

but should the sub house Dragoon Guards have the two sardaukars and the laser tank, and what more?

[Frodo]

i am sorry but this job for apollyon is my last.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

that's ok. it would have been too much trouble anyway.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

hm, I have made it pretty much like I have been advised to do. but it is to easy to beat the humans when you are machines, because they only have men. what should I do about that?

[Dunenewt]

Give them vehicles obviously

Just tank type things though

[Apollyon]

or make some powerful infantry units if you really want to stick to the infantry scheme.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

they only have the trike now. what more should they have of vehicles?

if I play against humans they massproduce the trike, and don't produce as many infantry as I want

btw. they have both ordos aa soldier and harkonnen trooper. should they have both?

[Emperor Harkonnen]

now I know. the smuggler quad!!! :D

[Apollyon]

[quote author=Supreme Bashar

[Emperor Harkonnen]

nope not that big problem. they do produce much infantry too, but I think they should make more.

hey another idea, what about the deviator being some kind of computer virus firing gun. good idea right? but how should I make it only destroy computer vehicles and not human or cymek?

and the humans should have another tank, they now have trike and quad. a 700-900 $ vehicle they should have.

[Emperor Harkonnen]

any suggestion in how to make the virus vehicle will do, maybe it should force the computers to fight against their own or just destroy themselves
