A look back: Seaside Stronghold


Short one today, this screenshot doesn't have much. Cliff terrain here is lighter and "blurrier" than now. The grass texture was kept even to today, except it was edited lightly. The trees you are seeing in this shot are oaks. again, they are dark green. In the back there are variations of it. The tiles hold an interesting story behind them. Originally, the tiles were meant to be placed in early campaigns and for eyecandy. They were taken out possibly because they were unecessary or they looked bad on differently elevated lands. Only two things have remained virtually unchanged even till today's AOM, they are the water lily and wave units. Soon I will post the next entry, so make sure to check back.

EDIT: This is the same screenshot except in AOM's originally planned lighting type.
