I'm in the very early stages of creating a fantasy mod for sc2.
It's basically gonna be the same game, I'm just changing all the models of the 3 races, maybe switch a few numbers or abilities here and there.
Protoss is gonna become a Chaos/Undead type army. Not sure about Terran yet, propably some kind of human/dwarven army.
My idea for the Zerg however, is what this thread is for. I want to turn them into a forest army, including tree men, wood elves, dryads, centaurs, bears, foxes, fairies and what not.
The creep needs to be replaced with leaves/forest ground, if that's possible. Overlords => clouds (rain instead of creep poop).
Tumor-pooping queens turn into seed-planting tree men.
Other ideas:
Zergling => Wolf or Boar;
Hydra => Wood Elf Ranger;
Ultra => Giant Bear;
Muta => Eagle-Riding Wood Elf Archer;
Larva => Wisp;
Drone => Fairy or Gnome
I am planning to wait for the SC2 Model Editor to come out (I understand it's supposed to come out with HotS?) so the lack of existing models shouldn't be a limiting factor. I'm not good at 3D Modeling yet but I am in no hurry, I know this might take me several years ;)
What I need from you guys is more ideas for this army and/or ideas for existing models that could act as placeholders for now.
Also, if anyone could tell me if the idea with the forest ground instead of creep is realistic and/or how to implement it, that would be great.
Thanks!
