Well i think i should post this here but before anybody says anything read the following sentence :
I MADE THESE, NOT BLIZZARD

Now mods/admins move this whereever it goes. I just want ideas and feedback. It isnt really a project so it wouldnt go in members projects, and i dont need help so i dont think it would go in wehz. Sooo here we gooo...

I will post the concept arts i drew once i get my scanner working.

Name - Terrasus
Description - Gopher/human people. Live underground, very technological. (I guess its a mix of the WoW gnomes and a rodent :rolleyes:)

Town Hall -
Dwelling - Underground entrance with a pipeline going from the front into the ground and a gear near the top.
Cave - Underground entrance with a pipeline going from the front into the ground, two gears near the top/middle, and a small metal room on the side of the entrance.
Cavern - Underground entrance with a pipeline going from the front into the ground, two gears near the top/middle, a small metal room on the side of the entrance, another small room on the opposite side, a pipe connecting the 2 metal rooms, and a small power generator to the side of the entrance

Peon -
Engineer - Small gopher with a yellow hard hat, no armor, and a small wrench. (<3)

Food Source -
Junk Pile - A pile of dirt, mud, gears, and metal chunks

Barracks -
Den - Very small, flat cave with a large metal room on top. Gear on one side and window on the other.

Footman -
Trooper - Small gopher with small shoulder pads and small metal shorts. Has a metal ring around his tail and uses a tiny hammer.

MORE TO COME Concepts soon :)
 
Totally Awesome going to be a great race :D

But just to let you know, squirrel-people would be a better choice :rolleyes:
 
Ok....

Sounds aloud like kolboads the rat thing with the pick axes, but hey if oyu need ideas rodants often have parasites and sicknesses so maybe that ca be and upgrade and there has to a unit that has a drill and trap holes for def
 
It'll be different form kobolds once i show art i drew. And Black Hawk ill message you on aim tomorrow about ideas.
 
Have you drawn it yet? :p
I'm waiting eagerly ^^
 
when i read your discripts... i think of this

I have the pictures drawn on paper, but my scanner donesnt work. Im getting a new one sometime this week so keep waiting :)
 
sounds like the race from breath of fire 2 (for SNES) lol, good luck i spose
 
Sounds like the Skaven race from Warhammer.

Anyway, good luck on your race creating.
 
So this guys won't focus in raw melee power, more on technology? Will they use any kind of magic?
 
Well all races have to have magic. But the mechanical unit, like the siege engine, will be in a robot suit. They have ranged weapons like guns though. And one has a tazer. They just arent huge mutant gophers in full metal body armor. :p

isn't that more of a starcraft?
Instead, make them more based on their own bodily weapons.
Like how lions have teeth, hawks have talons, etc.
As they will be a whole new species of a type of "animal", it should have more bodily characteristics.

Like they have friggin sharp teeth that can drill or something.
Or huge claws like anteaters or w/e.
And going with the whole rodent theme, add bats or something for air.
 
I have a few questions
So how do you play this?
Is it just gonna be a meele map or something else?
Is it gonna be a single map u'll be creating or are u expecting blizzard to actually send us a new patch with that race?
Is it going to be just a bunch of maps? Then wut's the point of the new race?
It seems fairly a small "project" then. If you're thinking of an entire new race that can go in every game, you'll need to talk to blizzard.

Of course i cant send it to blizzard. This is just for concepts. Then i will make the models and make the race.
 
Good luck and don't give up half way. Remember most people give up because they don't realise just how much they have accomplished.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
