This is what happens when .... ooh it's best to keep my mouth shut and not complain about things, eh?

Certain people in charge of unit balancing think that it would be better for him NOT to level up until all of the animations are finished. However, Wesnoth ran just fine without any animations for at least a good third of the development cycle to date.

Somehow, I think that would make it more difficult to balance the unit, since we will have less time to interact with it before 1.0. but ... whatever. They can do whatever they want with the guy, since this has been set as their responsibility.

Note regarding blademaster skin color: It's called war paint.

May I note that I had a redone warrior tree set up in this thread http://www.wesnoth.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5481 ? I think it explains the sudden change in graphics alot more due to certain steps not being added yet.

WoA! neo did that blademaster no wonder i loved it, i recon that's the coolest drake unit around =) . i just think that the drake fighter and warrior could need some more improvement. the drake fighter looks a bit silly and it just doesnt seem to fit the whole line(sorry neo but that's what i feel). the drake warrior is cool but can be cooler ^^. and that blademaster....i cant open my eyes when i looked at it....its just toooo cool!!

I think that the blademaster looks ok, but warrior and fighter are complete crap.
me: Welcome to the real world. If everyone says your art and opinions suck, it's because they DO suck. Even if you're too damned proud/stupid/both to realize it.

I think the drake fighter line looks good even though they're not much useful:) The new warrior looks stronger than the old one. I think that's the way it ought to be,as he is a fighter

I second this gesture, They're the only drakes that still use the very first drake graphics I make and should be replaced with newer ones, But I'm to buzy with school to animate everything and such, So hoped that other artists would take a hand at this; Like Jetryl is doing.

Ah.

Actually in Finland some teachers were thinking of changing it to be a month later than it is now, but luckily they didn't. :)

They get double because they are still really smart. You could say they have more efficiency.
