This unit isn't by me! I'm not sure where I found it - I think in Rhye's expansion pack. But I don't know who made it. I'm posting it as R8XFT wants to have a look at it and maybe a few other people do... I'm pretty sure it's not been posted as a standalone unit on the fora before.

The unit is a colour conversion of the Asian Settler (from the Sengoku conquest, I think) to turn it into an African Settler. I know there's already an African colour conversion of the standard Settler knocking around somewhere, but I think this one's better - he looks much funkier!

No preview because I haven't the faintest idea how to give one (it has no pcx files and posting an animation is way beyond me). Perhaps someone else can provide one.

If the person who actually made this unit reveals himself or herself then that would be very good, and I hope they don't mind my sticking it here. Obviously I have nothing to do with the unit, but since he's lurking on my hard drive and other people want him I thought I'd give him a home of his own.

I believe Mr. DPII has some African Units on his agendy in the future(for his massive Age of Man mod...)

Read, m'boy, read! He said he didn't have the capability of posting a preview, but did ask if somebody who knew how could make one (all I can do is post screenshots of what it looks like in flicster, which sucks).

Edit: Maybe Rhye did the colour conversion himself?

Definitely not one of mine. I hadn't made my African Settler/Worker yet. This is a color conversion and cut and paste of the Japanese Settler.

One would infer... Speaking of DP, how's the units you showed us pre-christmas coming along? Got us all antisipating over here
