As you may know I'm working on the Viking mod for 0AD too. And now I've a question.
Could anyone tell me what the average of the amount of polygons that are used in the models? Because I want to base my models on the amount that you guys use for the game. Please tell for units and buildings. Thank you.

Faces or Polys? 3D Max has got a different count ...

game polys

Which in 3dmax are refered to as tri's or faces. A 3dmax quad/polygon refers to two 'game polys'/tri's/faces. Confusing? Yes

One of the many ways to count is to: make a clone, convert the object to a mesh, go to sub object mode, and select all the faces (with ignore backfacing turned off), and it will give you the count your looking for.
