    The knights I am trying to represent here aren't the normal units used in warfare, these are samurais. To my knowledge samurais never used shields, they only used a smaller sword for blocking called wakizachi. I did not want to implement this so I went with sword blocking, as you can see from the picture in my last post when the samurais are in that stance it means they are blocking. When they're not blocking they'll look like the guy on my profile pic.

    sorry but, of course they did, not shield like european warriors, but they did... it was usable only one time, it was made of bamboo sticks tied together, it was light and strong, but you know, katanas are not made to be best with one hand fight (... but some were best with this method... )

    but here, the problem come from when they charge their attack, blocking and charging look very similar and personnaly, i dont shoot at a blocking knight
    i just want you to improve this wonderful mod

    I believe somebody already made one where they have wooden shields, but they are ninjas but not samurais.

    its good, but i think maybe you should change the builder into an asian-style farmer with dirty white robes and a hoe or pitchfork maybe? that would make it look more japanese. i could help with that if you wanted

    actually wood is moku (もく). there are other elements too like water (すい), fire (か) etc. I know google translate says otherwise, but google translate is wrong

    You do realize that reply was made almost a year ago. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_say_wood_in_Japanese#page1
    Was your point to necro my post with "useless" or "wrong" information.

    Indeed they did, I believe it's called wakizashi. Spriting this would be near to impossible since I do not have the space available for another blade.

    I just noticed that... I'll try to make the head smaller for the next update (that will come after the scripting update).

    KAG accepts the old format of sprites and the new one so the order I have works. I'm not entirely sure what you did wrong but it is working on my side.

    Thank you! :D

    I think I can handle this by myself but thanks anyway!

    That was probably it, atm you cannot change anything about the game when it is opened or random stuff happens. When the scripting update comes out we will be able to edit sprites even when there's a match going.
