what model?

[hallsofvallhalla]

so I have been thinking on this more and I think a web browser version is the best bet. The problem is I would have to model every miniature and I am not much of a artist. I was trying to think of an alternative but seems no way around it. If I wanted to speed things up I could use all the mass 2d sprites for such engines eclipse and RPG maker as miniatures. It would be a more cartoony effect.

So I have decided to make a more arena style game. I want something quick, fun and collectible. Something that we can all battle each other and build armies or miniatures. I am going to use stock graphics from around the internet as I do not want to spend the next year making this. Just a quick game we can compete in. Maybe even hold some competitions.

Basic Outline
You build and collect figures that can be used in battle against AI and players. Figures gain experience from battles but if they die they are gone. Some figures have spells, special items ect.

This will either be a web browser game or a simple client game but will definitely be MMO. I am thinking Ajax...

So it's kinda like Soul Caliber style fighting, but with customization like an RTS/RPG/Sandbox game lol

[hallsofvallhalla]

hmm dont think so, its a tactical like final fantasy tactics...

Lol yeah you go halls. Bring back text based games dude. Personally there is nothing better than a game with a good story.
