The wonderful invention of Google led me to this marvelous demo :o . Remember this is only the 0.894 demo, so technically it isn't even a demo yet, it's just in beta phase (for those who don't know, beta phase in usually when all the bugs and kinks get worked out in a game before it is released). Although the demo is limited to 8 levels of your character, you can keep going back to play it again, and again.

I downloaded LeoCAD, and it seems to be a pretty simple drag and drop program. I might be able to help you with a few ideas on the troops, and possibly even create a few buildings, although I have absolutly no idea how they get animated or put into the game.

You need not worry about that :) All I need is the Leocad model, then I can take it from there.

Hills and mountains are in the works I believe. I haven't had overmuch to do with the world map, but it looks promising :)
cant (you) do the same thing with digtal desniger
I am unfamiliar with that program. Anyway, at the moment, Leocad provides me with what I need as I doubt that other piece of software has export capabilties.
should have one those red plumes? whatever (you) know the dragon knights have on their helmet.
Alas I have yet to model plumes yet, they are on my todo list however.



What do I need modelwise I hear you cry?

Well, to begin with: Castles. Castles are what I need mostly. I need to do one for every faction really. Big impressive fortresses to siege and conquer :)

Then I also need misc lego buildings.. houses, blacksmiths, taverns etc.

And then if you're feeling brave, catapults, siege towers and other siege weapons :)

I'd prefer these in leocad format, as I have to do significant work on them afterwards.

Thanks

Excellent, but what do I do with the model once I have created it in LeoCAD? I don't know how to export it. :?

Oh, and Digital Designer is a program created by the Lego company that allows you to create a model, then buy it online. The piece selection is quite limited though, and there are only about 3 different minifigs. It uses the same basic drag and drop abilities as LeoCAD, but in a more user friendly way (meaning it's made so a kid can use it).

If you just upload the leocad file itself, that'd be great.

Aha. One thing I don't need, is minifigures.
