UIEM - Unit Image Enhancement Mod

描述
An attempt to alleviate some of the unit art repetition using vanilla assets and thus retaining the original (admitedly shaky) visual consistency.

First of all I'm no artist. I couldn't draw to save my life. Still, I've found that a bit of recolouring and small touches can breathe some life into the game's existing art assets. The plan *isn't* to change all units, make factions completely uniform or make radical changes, just to add a bit more character and diversity.

Changes made are based on the unit or faction's lore, national colours or unit role. So, for example, Ariselle Marines have blue uniforms (because water/marines), Myrmont's Legionnaires have a bit of purple decoration (purple is prominent on Myrmont's flag) while Greenford Skirmishers have a green/brown "forester" look on account of them being guerilla fighters originating from a wooded province called Greenwood.

Focus is more, but not exclusively, on special/unique units and western type human units which suffer from repetition the most. These are not new units, just visual variations. All changes include tactical combat and promotion icons.

In addition some of the unchanged images have been re-assigned to make more sense (in my humble opinion). You'll see from examples below.

.....................................................................................................................................................

Change log:

Ariselle: Marines, Footmen

Calland: Greenford Skirmishers, Footmen

Bereska: Bereskan Crossbows

- Halberdiers (assigned the original "light_infantry" image, the guy actually holding a halberd instead of the "halberdier" image which irotnically looks like a group of pikemen and is mostly used with pike units)

Myrmont: Herald, Legionnaire

Evengaad: Warden, Tidemage, Royal Blues, Men-at-Arms

Hadrigel: Ehrbrucker Landsknecht

- Militia (assigned the original "poor_guard" image which is used for other low tier garrison units instead of "poor_infantry" which is generally used for low tier infantry like Men-at-Arms and Footmen)

Sirucil: Mandrake, Blade

Boruvian Empire: Golden Infantry, Royal Pikes, Preatorian

Galeni: Warden, Footmen

Maledor: Inquisitor

Azure Isles: Conscripts

.....................................................................................................................................................

I make no commitment to the future of this mod. There is certainly more than can be done and I'll do so if I find the inspiration and time. I do have the will. :)

As always, remember to activate the mod in the Mod Manager accessed via the game launcher.

Thanks Ron. It's just variations on a theme, it's always easy to iterate on someone else's work. :)

Nice stuff again Captain! For not being an artist, this looks actually better than some of the ingame stuff.
