Ah, good one.
Thanks Kobas

Well, about the models... I often use a lot of them. I think I exaggerate sometimes.
However, all the models I used will actually be in the campaign, and the great feature of it is the customized stuff. Despite I think you're right and I'll look up to reduce the exaggerated model importing, at least in this cinematic. Thanks again ^^
 
Lol Alagremm being alone in that thread of yours :D

LOL, he usually do that. This isn't the only thread I've created that he was the only one to read and post.
A great friend he is.

I checked it fast, and i did not see anything very unacceptable.

Voted for: Approvement

Thanks.
I'm looking for creating version 1.1, does anyone have any sugestion further than kobas' link? (that helped me a lot, I must say)

I appreciate the voice acting a bit although it's not properly edited (background noise, some voices are louder etc.), however the unoriginality and naivete of the story is obvious.
That man should have seen reason not to prophesy like a mad man. He should have asked for a small reconnaissance group first, thing that the king should have also though of instead of declining in the end.
I presume the Church leader was involved with the evil appearances.
