(obvious credit to Gluma for the lizard models, other credits i'll link later)
Techtree and Universal Stats (whether I should do more Wc1/Wc2 stats or Wc3 stats) are still in development, but I've got most of the abilities and story in place. I'll leave a test once I get a suitable map (and oil system) done. i've also illegally edited some models, so i won't publish until i contact even the modelers that might be inactive at this point
Lizards have fallen from the sky, and have set up a major base of operations here. After the lands nearby were torn apart, strikes had to be made by the unlikely combination of foes.
For the exception of buildings, and upgraded units (Glowers, Sharpshooters, Webweavers, and Battlemages), each unit has food cost of their tier.
Faction 1: Ner-Ner
Faction Color: Light Blue
Races: Lizards, Avians, Naga
This faction's techtree revolves around two main buildings, should either of them be destroyed without another intact, the player will be nearly reset. They also need to rush T2 in order to have the effective everything needed, once they have a decent earlygame army or workforce.

The tech upgrades are less complex than Ner-Ner, but upgrading buildings will have to be done thoughtfully.
also what tags do i use when publishing this?
hive models used (most of them modified): nerubian arbalest (used for glower), plesiosaurus ( used forsea carrier), nerubian bombarder (used for windbomber), crypt guard (used for reborn terror), gluma's lizardmen (used for all things lizard), avian warrior (used for avian scout), termite (used for termite)
