First off, lemmee say that this game looks pretty good from what Ive seen of the Demo. Sorta like Ground Controll the way Ground Controll SHOULD have been done.

Now the questions.

Armor :

Do tanks have different armor Ratings on their different sides? I think it adds a lot to a tac game if the units have exploitable flanks...

Graphics :

Do the graphics in the Demo represent the final graphics for the game? And if they do, will they be in an easily moddable format so we can give units our own textures?

Units :

How many different type of units will there be? light tanks? Aircraft other than choppers?

Armor:

Yes there are different armor Ratings for the front, sides, and backs of each unit.

Graphics:

Yes, The graphics in the demo are representative, with the exception of the APV, which has been graphically changed a bit. The textures for all the units are stored in the Texs directory off of the main directory. They are all in either DIB (same really as BMP) or TIF format, and can be easily changed. Also we will be releasing the Mapmaker for the game which will allow you to change around unit models, and settings (such as the armor and such) as well.

Units:

All total there are 27 distinct unit types, there are light tanks as well as normal and heavy. The only aircraft are Attack copters and Recon copters.
