My idea for an Orders Emblem would be a red tree, symbolizing nature standing tall, covered in the blood of its enemies. Gives room for some cool fight lines like "Ill irrigate the flowers with your blood!" "You'll make a good fertilizer" Etc.
Thank you! It really is motivating to see someone trying as hard as you are, and I do feel relieve to find that there really is someone just starting out, everyone I checked was huge already :) It makes me want to do those videos even more!
There is a reddit channel www.reddit.com/r/HEXKOT/ although as of right now, there is nothing in there. We planning to post weekly dev vlogs in the text format. So if you are interested, you can check the linked sub-reddit :) And thanks for your kind words :)
Gun-headed moss-knight is a miss. Too alien looking to be called a knight. I advise you make his arm acorn-gun. And turn his head into regrowing acorn with drawn eyes. Imagine if he reloads his gun using own head as amunition.
@@Onsz_e sounds magical. Or you could go a simple way: an acorn grows and hangs from a branch (stylized as the plume of a knight's helmet) and falls into the hollow neck, thus reloading the gun. Gun-knight loses ability to see anything before making a shot (you could make many gameplay situations involving such mechanic involving friendly fire, puzzles or stealth). + You could make different variations of this unit, distinguished by its projectile-helmet or make small chance of gowing rare head (poisonous flowers, gas mushrooms, net of thorns, healing-apples // it'll troll players healing them intead of inflicting dmg, make it suspiciously simular to accorn in apearence)
Cute little things made from acorns? Never thought about it but maybe, there could be another character like this in the game? That's something worth exploring :) Thanks!
@@theoneandonly380 Okay :) And what about the advice? What could I improve to make them more interesting? Is it only about the presentation? Or maybe you found the entire concept just simply boring? Don't mind me asking so much, but I really want to make it better :)
Counterargument: Did Ninjas used katanas against the Samurai? The answer is yes, because that's what was available to them. Even if two factions are against each other they'll use what's available to them to fight. The only time the factions have used different weapons is because: 1. Each faction manufactured their own weapons. Though sometimes the objective in certain battles was to obtain enemy weapons for their use. This means they have to invest in manufacturers and blacksmiths, which is an additional cost that quickly adds up when the conflict intensifies. 2. Manufacturers didn't sell them to both factions as in exclusivity deals. Though this usually would mean a loss for the manufacturers, why limit yourself to 1 clients if you can have both. 3. The weapons are not interchangeable, they're specificly made for a certain group. Such was the case with machine guns having the russian and american model, though the russian one became the standard for its low price and maintainment and eventually most used that model. I'm just saying fighting with nature sounds noble but if they're losing and there's nothing available, the tree guy will grab a sword to defend themself even if it's against its principles, otherwise their expensive and inefficient equipment is ultimately the reason they're losing the conflict and could be the reason they lose the war, they gotta find something cheaper and more effective.
The log heads I'd personally change it from using birds to insects, insects are way more abundant as an ammunition. I find it hardly for a bird to donate their eggs like that, even if they're not fertilized they could die of a complication while laying them, too much of a risk for them. If you're gonna use a bird better use a Raptor to fly into the battleground or an Owl as a suprise attack hidden in their logs, and if you can hide animals in their logs you can also hide a Feline or Canine in there. If we talk about insects they could use from termites to ants, maybe use a centipede as a Spiked Lasso. Also they could use combustion filled ants (aka honey ants) as granades.
Wow, I'm really amazed, that's really interesting answer, but let's say you're unable to learn how those new weapons work, so what do you do? I can imagine someone hitting his enemy in the head with his newly acquired rifle :) That would be fun. But in the case of Moss Knights maybe the reasoning for their existance is indeed a little stretched. So maybe the Moss Gods would use diseases or animals? You gave me a lot to think about, you know :) Thanks for the advice!
Can not really use Owl's, they are already taken by something else, but insects? That's something - Termites maybe? They do fit, and if you think about it, it does make sense to shoot them. Or at leas try to get rid of them somehow.
@@Onsz_e Trees are infected with thousands of them, why not use them? At least that way it'll also bother the enemy. Who knows maybe make sugar bombs so the ants go all over them. Fire ants for example are some of the most vicious ants there are, and the chew on cables and computers, they hace been a problem for airports.
I have the impression this channel is gonna blowup as monstergarden did recently
I thought this was monster garden when I clicked
KNIGHTS OF THE MOSS ARE SO COOL!!!
As always thanks your support, it means the world to me!
Acorn Gunners should have backblast, like Bazooka or Recoiless Rifle, so they could accidentaly throw around theyr smaller allies. XD
That would definitely be cool!

Such a fun project! I love the style you have gone with here, it's very detail-rich without being hyper realistic.
Thanks so much!
Technology is antythesis of life.
This is sick! So glad I have found another fellow worldbuilder who is just starting out. This is honestly so amazing bro you should be proud
Thank you! It really is motivating to see someone trying as hard as you are, and I do feel relieve to find that there really is someone just starting out, everyone I checked was huge already :) It makes me want to do those videos even more!
Love the idea/designs, great texture!
This heavily reminds me of @MonsterGarden
I guess it does, but I really like his content, he did really inspire me to create those videos (I mean monstergarden)
Moss knights are my spirit animal
monstergarden inspires, as he should.
This is sooo wicked
Now this, is epic
Thank you!
Cool concepts!
Isn’t the concept of knights made by humans? Oh whatever.. This art is so cool! Count me interested
It is!! Or so I think, but I like them so much it doesn't matter!
SO COOL!!! 🌳
cool
Your Art Style is so cool! Anywhere else I can follow the progress for this project? Very interested, thanks!

Gotta think how he would load it though. He could jump and "lose" his head in the air, then catch it with his "hand gun"!

These really remind me of beacorns

stealing format with the most uninteresting concept art ever..
You mean stealing the "worldbuilding" format? What would you improve to make the concept more interesting?
@@Onsz_e dude, stop pretending, the whole video is almost scene to scene like in monstergarden
@@Onsz_e with the only difference being your shitty uninteresting concept
