I made an animation about "Spearman vs. Tank" in Civ3. After it was rejected from Newgrounds because there's a low tolerance for newbie animation and people didn't 'get' the civ jokes much, i put it on deviantart. here's the link: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/18212177/

note: I'm pretty sure that posting the link wouldn't count as advertising, since I would put it here if I could (it's far too big of a file) and I don't have anything else on Deviantart, including links to a different site.

another note: I forgot to mention it in the description, but I did use the spearman vs. tank emoticon from this site in the animation.

Hope you enjoy it!

Pretty cool. Someday you should do some Jib-Jab type skits. Perhaps put the "Spearman vs. Tank" to some sort of music.

I had this Idea a few months ago. Planning to make a Spearman-Tank flash making extensive use of Stick figures and a 'Matrix' theme.

Send it to Soren. Good animation. I like how it's called "Tank" instead of "The Tank" or "Tanks"

Nice job dude! You have good sense of humor :lol: But it should be defense victory, not attack (that expression I got) Something like Tank is trying to come in city and at the gates it bumps spearman and destroys. But I don't know would it be so good. Anyway :goodjob:

I like it, especially the spearman take-off. You should put somekind of awe-inspiring music in that precise moment, something in the lines of "super spearman to the Rescue !"

That's awesome. It's almost identical to one I made about a month ago - without the Spearman Anime-attack (kudos), though I couldn't figure out how to do the html or whatever to post it...???

Nice work anyhow - you should send it to Firaxis. Motivation for them to get it right in "C4: Revenge of the Tank"

THe purpose is to have all sounds from Civ III...
It was OK, I never laughed but it was fun to watch.

"C4: Revenge of the Tank"
Revenge of Tank (read rbis4rbb's post).

Revenge of Tank (read rbis4rbb's post).
It was in reference to SW3: Revenge of the Sith, not this video...

I suspect one major reason why Newgrounds rejected the flash was that only Civ players would understand what it was all about.
