More on Overlord II's minions

New screens and a trailer
Bengt Lemne 4 May 2009

Codemasters have released a few new screens and a trailer highlighting the minions in Overlord II. This time around you will be able to equip your browns, greens and reds with mounts forming a cavalry of minions. Browns ride and control wolves, red minions hop on salamanders while the greens ride giant spiders.

Here is a developer quote to go with the new assets:

"The Minions are the stars of the show and we've brought them back with bigger personalities and with more abilities than before," said Lennart Sas, Creative Director, Triumph Studios. "Hilariously supercharged, the Minions can tear down scenery and destroy buildings, ride mounts and operate powerful siege weapons in massive battles with the Empire. They became hugely popular from the first game, so we're upping their profile, abilities and unique characteristics."
