AI Stock Units - Imps

Here is some progress (that i attempted to show today)
The units that will be fleshing out the battle field, a simple AI that will appear in the base, then run forth and confront the enemy players and enemy AI and battle
The battle will be evenly based, with both teams spawning the same amount and type of AI (different colors) and they will meet and cancel each other out, the players will be the turning point for the battle.




They are very weak, and do little damage, however they will make the battle alot more interesting and thick, rather than it being scarce as players shop or sneak around the edges. Also, if there are no AI warriors meeting in battle, the armies would hardly seem like they are fighting at all, more staying in their keeps.

If a area is captured, Stationary Imps will appear and guard that place for the team.

Imps Spawn at the bases with a number of variations, they will hold varying weapons (sticks, wooden swords, forks, bones, ect..) They occasionally have a small shield or off hand object, like a bottle, piece of meat, ect.. and will rarely appear wearing a helmet, like a fish skull, a cup, anything they can find.

they spawn in groups of 3, two melee and one that throws stones.

This is a work in progress (i animated and begun texturing this morning) The imp model is ~200 polys as it is very little, and contains animations:
-idle stance
-run
-attack 1
-attack 2
-attack stance
-death
-taunt

now to give it's texture some personality and its all finished!
