PVKII is making some serious progress. I'm excited to let you know what we've been up to, and hope you enjoy the media that follows.

Let me begin by letting you know we have formulated a new class list. The new class list includes the original 9 classes from PVK (Skirmisher, Sniper, Captain; Berserker, Axe Viking, Spearman; Man-at-arms, Heavy Knight, Bowman), as well as 3 new classes for each team, all having special abilities. These new classes are: Freebooter, 'Ealer, Swashbuckler; Harii, Seio-Man, Jarl; Assassin, Cleric, Lord. Our new Concept artist, HengisHammer, has drawn up a few of the new classes, as well as a quick preview of the new berserker.

jRocket has been working hard to produce a few excellent player models. So far he has 9 of them in progress. He's begun skinning a few, but they're all still being worked on. I don't have a current render of the bowman.

I've cleaned up the Image section by taking out most of the weapon models we had. It's been agreed that they didn't meet the quality PVKII deserves. However, we have three new weapon renders, including the Knight Warhammer, Viking RoundShield, and Viking Seaxe. The Warhammer and RoundShield are still WIP, but the seaxe is only waiting for a skin.

Oh, and I'm currently working on a Tiki Statue, a decoration for an Island-Themed Tiki Bar that will go in one of our maps. With the recent annoucement of the release of the Half-Life2 SDK, my excitement grows and I look forward to showing what our mappers and coders can do!
