OK our voxel forum is looking pitiful, time to put some new stuff in here

First off I have Ixith to thank for giving me the ridiculous idea to make these hot air balloons in the first place rolleyes.gif

This is my 15th voxel (if you don't count the multiple versions that I made)
And yea, these took a LOT of work to make, as round voxels are a big pain in the rear. Spotlight would be greatly appreciated wink.gif

EVA report:
Hot air balloons can be incredibly strategical units.
since they don't use any sort of mechanical engines, they are practically un-touchable by surace-to-air equipment, save for the Firestorm Defense system.
Unfortunately, they have no on board, so they can't reveal shroud, and they only have room enough for a few infantry.
Despite these disadvantages, you might find hot air balloons to be fairly useful
(the code for this is contained in the README file wink1.gif )

The concept:

The 3D views:

(I changed the remap to colors for this pic - you can see where the remap is, though, based on the ingame shots as well)

and the ingamers:
