View Full Version : Unit Request: Maya spearman
The Last Conformist Apr 04, 2006, 12:21 PM I thought it was time to try my luck again ... :cool:
... so I'm requesting a Maya spearman looking something like this:

A colour scheme to go with utahjazz7's Ah Kuy would be good:

(blue is civ-colour.)
Similar figurines can be seen here (http://www.tin-figures.de/index2.htm). If someone feels like making another of the warriors depicted there, that too would be appreciated. :)
William GBTW Apr 04, 2006, 12:23 PM Look in the Mesoamerican Scenario. FIRST POST!
The Last Conformist Apr 04, 2006, 01:04 PM Are you seriously suggesting I should use the Vanilla Spearman and/or Pikeman as a Maya unit? No, don't answer that.
William GBTW Apr 04, 2006, 01:26 PM Javelin Throwers and the other ones that are flavored for Maya's in the Scenario; it has custom units gal-or.
Virote_Considon Apr 04, 2006, 01:38 PM Unfortunatley, you're wrong. It just contains the Vanilla units...
Back on topic, Have you tried the Sea People's Spearman by (I think) Utahjazz?
William GBTW Apr 04, 2006, 01:40 PM There is the Quetzul Bowman and the Javelin thrower WHICH IS NOT vallia.
The Last Conformist Apr 04, 2006, 01:51 PM Have you tried the Sea People's Spearman by (I think) Utahjazz?
I've seen that, yes. Unfortunately, the overall look of it is Mediterranean bronze age, and the shield seems to have metal bosses, so it won't do.
Virote_Considon Apr 04, 2006, 01:54 PM There is the Quetzul Bowman and the Javelin thrower WHICH IS NOT vallia.
Quetzul Bowman is the Babalonian Bowman from the epic game. The Javelin Thrower is the Mayan UU from the EPic Game ;)
The Last Conformist Apr 04, 2006, 01:55 PM Quetzul Bowman is the Babalonian Bowman from the epic game. The Javelin Thrower is the Mayan UU from the EPic Game ;)
Moreoever, neither is a spearman, which happens to be what I'm requesting.
William GBTW Apr 04, 2006, 02:38 PM The Javlien thrower is close enough.
Rob (R8XFT) Apr 04, 2006, 03:06 PM Anything useful to you here?
Dom Pedro II's Native America units (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?p=2001560&mode=threaded)
The Last Conformist Apr 04, 2006, 03:21 PM Not really; I'm hoping to replace one of Dom Pedro III's Andean types with something more specifically Maya. :)

The Last Conformist Apr 05, 2006, 01:08 PM Nothing there that'll work, I'm afraid. The Cueztecatyl is dressed all wrong and the Atlante doesn't carry a proper spear. Additionally, both have non-looping attack animations that I don't like at all.
Ozymandias Apr 05, 2006, 02:14 PM How about some of Steph's conversions, or Dease's TupiPikeman (shown below)?

Edit/PS - You might also want to check out some of Kinboat's stuff in the Unit Library ...
-O.
The Last Conformist Apr 05, 2006, 02:50 PM I already use Kinboat's splendid Meso Spearman.
I'd prefer to stay away from conversions. :)
Quinzy Apr 05, 2006, 03:04 PM a bit OT, why is it that some people don't like conversions?
The Last Conformist Apr 05, 2006, 03:12 PM They rarely if ever fit stylistically.
