btw. That screenshot doesn't work, but if it is this one (http://www.knights-of-honor.net//english/screenshot.php?screenshot=0124&all=0125|0124|0123|0122|0121|0120|0119|0118|0117) then I think they are prisoners or serfs from the town.
Hmm, I must agree also with farmers :(
i mean the bottom of the picture: The political view (http://www.knights-of-honor.net//english/screenshot.php?screenshot=0125&all=0125|0124|0123|0122|0121|0120|0119|0118|0117) it's WAYYYY to greyish in color - the text in they grey area says: "Duke - juvenile" & "Militarist - timid" - do you understand now ! or please let me know :)

GREAT!!!!!!! :hello::cheers:
SOO Many NEW units!!!:hello::hello:
I think its great, and I really look forward to see the description of them, because there are some that I don't understand. F.e:Pronoia or spahias...:scratch:
EDIT: I think that I'm not the reason why you showed the Helvetic-Screens, but is it ok if I feel honored?:D

btw, when looking at the screenshot, it still looks like the devs haven't figured out what to do with those peasants working in the fields WHILE an enemy army passing by - why can we get a picture showing them fleeing ( the peasants ).
Frank or Frujin once said, that they have the AI forb the peasants that they run, but this is small thing to do, at the moment they have bigger things on them they work...
@Henrik: About the "grey interface". It will take another finall pass to finally tweak the colors and everything once the game is completely done. About the working-not-running peasants. As I said, at the moment we do have much more important things to carry about. Since it is easy to impement, we will do at very final stage. Until then we can amuse ourselves when fantasizing how they do feel in the middle of the battle :)

yeahh, i remember that, but in case they have forgotten it's a good idea to remind'em ;)
anybody noticed units disappearing from siege equipment? first siege towers, now also oil cauldrons are off :(

on the second new screen of today you can see a oil cauldron :)
I know but it's not in showcase :( maybe another accident like with peasants :) but I think some more equipment disappeared. I miss especially siege towers. Will they be in?

That's okay Frujin - i'm calm now !! - it was just that the graphic at the bottom on that screeshot didn't live up to the high standard we normaly see from BSS's artists - IMO
regarding the "brave" peasants, i'm happy to learn that it's not an issue that will be forgotten.
I know that it sounds a bit like i'm sorta walks in too small shoes here, but one can't help being just a little worried when one gets the impression that BSS slips its high standard of work - and if it happens ( which it won't ) then it's our "duty" to remind BSS to keep the standard or live up to its standard - we probably all expect the best and we know we'll get the best - though some of us ( that would be me ! ) sometimes the lose faith a little....:)

I too has wondered about the the siegetower - no news about that one though - regarding the oil cauldron i think that this must be an error or it just means that every castle comes with oil cauldrons at no extra charge - if that is the case then it could not really be considered as a unit - right !

Angryminer
I must agree a little with Angryminer and Henrik, but our hope is alive, so, nevermind.
btw. Did anybody realized one funny thing?
Castle of East Sahara is WEST of castle of West Sahara :D
I like them both. Finally we see muslim knights :), but this little bug should be fixed, don't you think?
PS: I really like muslim piety icon :go:
Hmm.. why Lithuania has all baltic terriory?Becouse Lithuania never had such large territory or it's a conquered land by playing the game?
Pls answer!
I really think those screenshots of desert realms look nice and also as Elewyn says the little moslem piety icon is nice too.
Regarding these new screenshots: Burgundy (http://www.knights-of-honor.net//english/screenshot.php?screenshot=0126&all=0128|0127|0126|0125|0124|0123|0122|0121|0120) i have noticed that the bottom graphic has been changed and i think it looks really nice - the style looks like it's gothic - does anyone disagree ? - this reminds me of that other screenshot which i complained about yesterday, now i'm a 100% sure that Elewyn + Frujin know exactly what i was talking about ;) and i'm also quite sure that the rest of you will agree with me that the style in the bottom graphic on The Political view (http://www.knights-of-honor.net//english/screenshot.php?screenshot=0125&all=0128|0127|0126|0125|0124|0123|0122|0121|0120) screenshot simply doesn't fit the style of the rest of the game in terms of graphic - i think Frujin sorta agrees at the end of the day.
Regarding the rather massive introduction of new units - i think we should stop wondering about it...............and blame ourselves :D - this is probably one the areas ( + the north african part ) where we ended up with haveing it our way, instead of what was originally planned :go:
