I was making this mod to be a full conversion of AokTC into an evil looking fantasy mod, and originally I wanted to change all the unique units and building sets. However after working on it for a while I found that the ridiculous creepy crawly oversized units were not really fitting in Aok. I got disillusioned with it and gave it up. Anyhow it still took me about a week to make so I am uploading it. The units are from the games Ice Wind Dale and Baldur's Gate.
A big thanks to qaz123 for making the sprites available and organized, and also for his helpful modding guide which albeit I did not follow.
Anyway, some people might like this, though I don't think much of it myself.
3/5,I like it but you need to resize the units to be smaller and change the ingame names to the actual names of the creature,and one last thing,could you change the icons and add mythical creatures?

Reign of Evil by Sword_of-STORM changes several units into evil looks Monsters like Ogres, Dragons and Yetis.
The new evil creatures have brilliant graphics, some of the best I have ever seen. The fit in quite well with AOK and will be perfect for a fantasy scenario. However none of the creatures have any decay graphics so they just stay on the map and then vanish after a while.
The Mod Pack also comes with a custom installer. It is very easy to use and only involves of few clicks of the mouse. The Mod also has a readme file telling you what each creature replaces. Unfortunately the Mod has no language files which would make this almost perfect. FI there were language files we would be able to know what each of the units were without having to minimize the game to look it up in the readme.
Additional Comments:
An almost perfect Mod Pack with great graphics and easy to use custom installer. Add some decay graphics and maybe some language files and it would be perfect!
