actually, an actual chess game using the demigods/creeps would be very cool as a side game/easter egg. Remember Battle Chess from long ago? (chess with kill animations).

nah, done it in maya at university (I study sociology but still have access to maya there). I know it doesnt look overwhelming but I liked the Idea.

I would totally buy an Authentic Pewter Demigod Commemorative Chess Set designed exclusively by the Franklin Mint(tm).

This seems to be really very interesting idea, but I am not sure how good Demigod will support modifications like this. Good luck with this idea. When you need some beta testing with this mod I will try to help as good as I can to make it as bugfree as possible.

coolio, didn't find it offending just wanted to say that it wasn't made using max - you don't really need a tutorial for chess pieces as they are solids of revolution - I love them , even did in school when we had to calculate the volume of them^^

If I have enough time I might do a more polished draft of it. the Pwns need some sort of weapon, dunno what would fit yet.

I want to add something:
Your chess figures seem to be inspired by modern weapons such as tanks, but keep in mind that the environment is in the past.

Demigod is set in a future fantasy universe , and a mod doesn't doesn't necessarily need to resemble the main game, however this has just been a quick draft and if I do more work on it, I will try to give it a steampunky look

Indeed, you are right that a mod doesn't need to resemble the main game. I just wanted to point out that if you will do a mod which is sc-fi for a game like The Settlers/Imperium Romanum they won't go well together.
