You could have a foreign outpost that creates mounties and mexican bandolier gunslingers.

Sorry, but i don't think that a cowboy faction is a good idea.  It seems like a hard subject from which to base a full faction.  :P

Amen, brothah! :P  Anyways, Mark, what are you, the thought police? :D  He can have whatever ideas he pleases.

What you are doing is good, that is making many factions.  You've probably made more factions single-handedly than were made at all during 2008.  And they have original models, too, which is definitely more than could be said about factions in 2008, excluding Titi's.  The worst part of that for me is keeping track of it (in the Factions Download Center).

It used to be that retexturing was king, and I was the king of that! ;D  Of course new models is far better.

I do see, at least superficially, a sort of a lack of thought put into the factions.  Your style is very different than any others I've seen; you announce you want to do a faction, then a week later its done!  Amazing!

I think you would generate more interest if you posted ingame screens and descriptions of each unit.  Also, an overall description of each faction would be very nice, and would especially help me

Ah, yes, I agree. No limits are needed. You know, that's a good moto for life: 'No Limits'. Why I could make tee-shirts, start an empire, take over the world with this new iconic phrase: "no limits". Heh, what a shrewd idea! ;D

I support you, though do try to make your textures a bit better, and work on a more natural model, with less of a blocky shape that we've seen in the past. Other than that, dream on (not in a sarcastic way, in a dreaming of good stuff kinda way). Say, that would make a good empire too... ;D

Wow unbelievable!  But how can you do this so fast? Why do you have so much time to do it?
For the buildings, can you change the textures of the buildings a bit, so that they look a bit different and don't appear all in the same brown?

Will there be more than one faction in the same techtree( in your package)? If so, will you  do some  balancing for it?

Please don't call your upcoming package something like mega_...  Players will  probably get mixed up with my and your package name.
vbros_pack  is good enough and one hint for the number, you will soon get new versions of your package, so it's probably a good idea to use the number as the version number like I did. So call yours vbros_pack_a1 and vbros_pack_b2 if you decide to release two separated ones.

and for the textures of your buildings, have a look at burningwell probably you find a wood photo there which fits your needs.

That looks very good, Eliminator.  I am interested in what each building is...

Description!

Okay, you asked for it.  :P  :D

-Why does the barn produce scorpions?  Shouldn't the Tumbleweed produce them?
-Why does the cowboy upgrade to an Explorer.  What is an Explorer.  I.E. What does it do?
-How are you going to do a lasso effect?
-How does a sand monster get into a western faction?
I would think of more, but I will save that for when I can test it.

-1 The tumble weed is a hi tech unit that attacks air units, scorpions are like worse then sword men. It just comes from the barn because that is a building you make soon. (And its beter then saloon jail or bank.)
-2 He upgrades to one because Its a cowboy that gets old and explores. An explorer is like learned professor And a doctor.
He explores and reserches and tames.
-3 The guy just swings the lasso around his head and wop smacks it over your head.
-4 Western is in a desert or dry so the explore experments with the sand and BOOM!

If you have any beter Idas just tell me.

Right now i am at Best Buy looking at the SWEET HP pavilion touchsmart thingy.  It is so cool, but it is very hard to use the touchscreen

About the faction, i will download it when i get home.   You can hope for some real feedback then.

Long time no see... I think I missed a lot. And right you are mark. The faction looks good. I can't understand how you get this done so fast. I admit, I can't do more than a couple models a day even if I wanted too. After a couple of hours, I feel a need to play some video games, so I rarely do more than 2 models a day, usually just one. I think my record may slow down in the future though, since I lost all my resources!!!

Looks good, your texturing skills have gone up nicely from your first mod. Some of the units are a little...odd.... but good still.
