Sounds cool!

stat table

The Rock , paper , lizard , spock system

1) the command squad can make some order in your lines (your run away unit )  or allows reaction of mobile fire support if your front is pierced

2) the line tank is a versatile medium in everything but not invincible, maybe one of your main core unit with infantry
 
3) the unmovable fortress makes inaccurate fire support at long range and some 12 shots of very inaccurate short-range arrows

4) The scout team provides to move behind the walls to direct fire the support teams, infantry, melee tanks, and tanks specialist (Blizard and terror)

5) The walls are good for protecting your supports mortar fire team,  allowing them to do their indirect and unfocus shooting to your slow enemy units

6) the terror tank can scare an enemy unit with magic except the kamikaze truck (immune magic) or with is screaming catapult ammo

7) blizard tank can immobilizes an enemy units with magic except the kamikaze truck (immune magic) and stop / disrupt the offensive of your opponent

8) heavy tanks are used to stabilized the front and to fixe the enemy units (or counter attack if a enemy unit is too close / slow movement don’t help them)

9) the kamikaze truck must seek the most profitable target to bomb or the most strategically advantageous (walls, melee tanks, fortress, ....) fragile but fast

10) the teleporter tank can appear behind the enemy front to distract the opponent and make some threat before get kill

11) supports  tanks are mobile fire support , inaccurate but give a good mortar barrages to disrupt the enemy assault (very effective against infantry)

12) the melee tank seeks for glory in bloody and hand to hand fight , don’t let them meet you, can flame the wall and the fortress

13) the infantry is not resistant but mobile and have some close fire power . use it to delay to your enemy offensive

sprite test in game

Tank sprite

Looks great! As you say -> It's shame that we can't find a way to increase the space in between units within a troop, so the tanks don't overlap each other, perhaps we will find it in the .Arm file as u were discussing.

:)

warlock sprite / blizard wizzard tank idle annimation 16 directions
crab sprite / clos combat sprite 8 direction

light tank sprite 8 direction

Wicked!

:)

fortesse ( statique unit ) 8 direction fire mortar

Your retexturing has made nice colour contrast, looks great!

The Book Troop Pictures have to be uniform even sizes, my Dark Elf Riders work when 228 x 246 but I get the same result as you, if I change their Width/Height to 245 x 257

man, thats hell of a work!

do you expect this to be a multiplayer or you're editing a campaing?
cause speaking of campaing it could be quite frustrating to play once 1-3 squad units will die and you'd have restart and restart again..

ya i think i will be great to make a multiplayer games

 i dont know how to do it but i would like to had some pnj unit to create destrucible obstacle ( like wall, or small house )
