Its interesting that all the stuff posted here has been units. I guess people don't make cities and terrain that much... (I've never even tried to make either).
BTW, Jimmy conratulations on reaching Prince level.

I don't suppose the thread is still on the forum is it?  How long ago was it active?
Case- thanks, I didn't even notice and I am thinking of making some cities for a special purpose.

Wow....that's really well done. 
I liked it so much I tried to adapt it for a later time period (Late 1940s)...I don't think I did so well...
For once a few colours got kinda messed up...but most of it came out alright

Don't laugh at me Jimmy....
I wouldn't know how Stalingrad is going...FMK was making it.  But work the Cold War scenario has progressed...I'm almost finished with all the rules files...how are those units coming along...?
Hobbes - *nods* I figured a couple really big smokestacks would make the cities more industrialized. Now I'll have to try out those railway graphics...hmmm...
...(look down...)

Oh crap, what the hell was I thinking  ? Anyways, drawing is coming slow. I am working on quite a few things right now and with school and work, I am spreading my self pretty thin. I will do what I can though and get them to you.

aha! so you're on! I made a few mistakes withthe units list (mislabeled ship classes mainly...which I'm sure the resident naval experts here could surely help me out with.) 
Anyway...in the brief moment since I posted...I re-did a little of the city, put in Hobbes's railways and created a new factory (mine) icon...I think it looks pretty good.

That graphic looks great too. I like it much better than the one I patched together.
I edited it a little bit (made the lighter building a little darker around the middle and made the smoke a lot lighter), and it goes very well with the cities and railroads.
I pieced together a larger screen of Europe to illustrate how good it looks. I'm pretty sure this is how the first era is going to start out (1945-1949).

I figured it was time I added something more substantial to the thread. Does anybody need a Vulcan, Valiant, or some train cars?

Thanks. The quality is due, in large part, to the extra height and hi-color bitmap format used in ToT. Personally, I find it very difficult to work in 256 color.

Two of the Orcs were created for a Scenario based on the Hobbit that I am making. The remainder were created for the fun of making them.
As time passes since having read the book the enthusiasm I had for creating the scenario has waned. Creating an RPG from a strategy game is a difficult task, even in ToT. Perhaps, CivIII will provide a better engine for this scenario.
In the mean time, I'm thinking of putting together an Orcs vs Humans strategy scenario where the Orc civs can produce huge numbers of cheap units and the human civ makes elite units but much fewer in number.

 This is the new units set for Zhanguo... but you must take it as a temporary work -  new archaeological evidences proved that Ch'in - Qin army used to paint their faces green in order to scare enemies...

Sorry, but
Yes Jimmy is right. It's on hold indefinitely. I might continue it when I get a chance, but things have been busy and I haven't gotten the chance to do much to it.
