    This looks incredibly good. No suggestions, it's perfect.

    I always though the commander is much bigger, like 15 to 20m. In Supreme Commander you get a good sense of scale in the campaign intros. because there you see the head mounted and the pilot inside the head.

    I did not know that the kbots were as big as Tanks. But it makes sense. I like the 100% accurate scale approach. If we now get a "onboard action cam" and a occulus rift support then I am in heaven.

    Please make a PA spin off as a first person RTS like Battle zone :)

    Maybe a stupid question but why are the scale meters in metric untis? I though the US uses the US customary units. But I like it, finally you have Si units, too :)

    Because the US is like, decades behind the rest of the world and is still using an inferior system.

    Also Mavor is Canadian.

    See HERE and read until the end of the thread.

    Got to say that the scale looks really spot on!

    Perhaps to prevent this. Always makes me smile.

    Also because the metric system makes infinitely more sense to computers than imperial.

    No. I'll stop using feet and inches when you pry my ruler out of my cold, dead hands.

    After seeing the scale shots, I can only say:

    Pants, shat.

    When I look at the Theta commander all I can think is "HULK SMASH!!!"


    Neat stuff! and thanks for taking the time to lay the units out and render a few test images for us.

    It's interesting/appreciated even if it all gets scrapped tomorrow and changed.

    Anyone remember the old days, when Cavedog released small clips of some units fighting?

    I remember watching Peewees attack an LLT over and over and over...

    This brings back the same kind of feeling :)

    I know the feeling.

    In my 20 years of gaming, less than a handful of games got me this kind of hyped. TA, Homeworld 2, SupCom and now PA. I feel like I'm back in 1998 right when I saw TA move for the first time ever.

    The scale renders are amazing. Briliant. They show great art and the epic scale of the units and structures. I'm awestruck.

    completly unrelated:

    I would really kill for a good Homeworld 3 :/

    RTS games somehow got the short stick in the last couple of years. Seeing Generals 2 go F2P made me sad :'/
