The Nifians can communicate with the animals to such extent that the elves are envious. It is because of this that they include units like Gryphon Knights and Tree (wose) Archers. I have posted rough drafts for what the units [i]might[/i] look like. I'm only working on this faction when i'm not busy.

Are you making them in JPG, and then turning them into PNG?

It seems like an "ok" idea. I mean, there is nothing wrong with it, but I don't see any reason it is specifically needed.
Don't go to Glowing Fish for advice, he will say both yes and no.

Hmm... would be interesting to have a horseman unit that's somewhat similar to the Elvish Rider line due to having empathy with the mount.

Why not... in a campaign.

Why not?
I also think the game lacks certain types of mounted units and I thought it would be nice to have dragon riders and serpent masters etc. etc.

Haven't I already explained this to you? Use cut and paste to change post, when you are using the rotate functions do it in multiples of 90, and don't use the skew functions at all. If you do that changing pose is easy, you just have to choose the right parts of the body to rotate and change places for.

ideas okay, 'cept for the tree dudes. only the masters of the trees (wood elves) get trees
I speak what's on my mind.
I also think the game lacks certain types of mounted units and I thought it would be nice to have dragon riders and serpent masters etc. etc.
