Wolfhart Dec 01, 2006, 11:23 AM First vote! Plotinus rules!! :)
Virote_Considon Dec 01, 2006, 11:40 AM Whoa! This competition is small this month...
And is it me, or is it being held a few days earlier this month? (It' normally around the 7th-8th...)
Rob (R8XFT) Dec 01, 2006, 11:47 AM Whilst I like all three units, the triarii looks quite unique and gets my vote.
utro43 Dec 01, 2006, 11:51 AM lol i like to vote for things, not just how pretty they are,
but what i will actually use....and the Roman Triarii is somethingi will
use for sure! :D good job Gaias you got my vote.
TopGun Dec 01, 2006, 11:59 AM The Ethiopian Swordsman gets my vote. After all, I was the one who requested it long ago. :D
Steph Dec 01, 2006, 12:00 PM I thought conversion were not allowed?
Anyway, I voted for Plotinus
Mirc Dec 01, 2006, 12:13 PM They are allowed, but I think it was supposed to be stated so. :)
Mirc Dec 01, 2006, 12:15 PM Whoa! This competition is small this month...
True. But it was still hard to decide. :D
I voted for Plotinus' Ethiopian Swordsman though.
Flamand Dec 01, 2006, 12:47 PM I thought conversion were not allowed?
Anyway, I voted for Plotinus
The rules have changed a few months ago... Conversions are allowed as long as it is stated when submitted.
Mirc Dec 01, 2006, 01:12 PM But shouldn't it say that it's a conversion in the first post and in the poll? :)
Red Door Dec 01, 2006, 01:17 PM The Ethiopian Swordsman wins my vote. :goodjob:
Steph Dec 01, 2006, 01:21 PM Ok, then I can enter next month!
Heretic_Cata Dec 01, 2006, 01:36 PM Plotinus :D
utro43 Dec 01, 2006, 01:52 PM okay....
i didn't realize it was a conversion when i voted....
but i still really like the Triarii. i do however think that
it should be in the first post that it is a conversion. ;)
Flamand Dec 01, 2006, 01:59 PM Ok, then I can enter next month!
You are very welcome... ;)
Steph Dec 01, 2006, 02:01 PM You are very welcome... ;)
The number of vote will say if I'm welcome
CC-2224 Dec 01, 2006, 02:11 PM The Sith Master gets my vote! I love Star Wars, and the lightning is beautiful!
aaglo Dec 01, 2006, 03:36 PM Sithmaster does it for me this time :)
Quinzy Dec 01, 2006, 03:44 PM sith master too! but i love them all! great job guys!
Stormrage Dec 01, 2006, 03:45 PM Ethiopian swordsman! (now where`s my 20$?)
Orthanc Dec 01, 2006, 04:57 PM Plotinus is taking the lead again!
Yeah, tis the busy time of year, unit production always takes a hit in the face of homework mounds...
Bluemofia Dec 01, 2006, 06:12 PM Sith master.
The lightning is so cool! :D
Keroro Dec 01, 2006, 06:37 PM Although I can't imagine a time when I would actually use it I have to say that I think that the Sith Master is the best this month. The others are really good quality too, and I am already using the brilliant Triarii in a scenario, but the animation on the Sith is sooo smoooth I just had to vote for it.
odintheking Dec 01, 2006, 06:44 PM The Sith. Love the lightning and animations. Plotinus' entry was great, too, though.
Mirc Dec 02, 2006, 07:42 AM The number of vote will say if I'm welcome
That's a very pragmatic approach! :)
kairob Dec 02, 2006, 10:17 AM the Roman dude :), I am glad someone is doing all these ancient units :)
Mirc Dec 02, 2006, 10:29 AM I am glad someone is doing all these ancient units :)
Me too, actually if I were to vote for what I would most like to use and what civ I admire more, I would have voted for the Triarii. :D
But I voted for the unit that I found most nicely done, though it was hard to decide between it and the Sith Master.
COAtlantis1745 Dec 02, 2006, 03:46 PM Well, obviously it has to be the Ethiopian Swordsman..look at that shield...its gorgeous! :D
beboy Dec 02, 2006, 11:15 PM beboy voted NavyDawg. I had to throw a dime to decide between the Sith Master and the Ethiopian dude... Good job to everybody!!
Hikaro Takayama Dec 04, 2006, 06:35 AM I voted for the Sith Master, mainly because I know how @#$@ hard it is to make Lightning and laser effects in Poser, and Navydawg pulled it off much better than I ever could (most of my FX in poser are C&P in after I've got the storyboard done)
Stazro Dec 04, 2006, 07:25 AM The number of vote will say if I'm welcome
Everyone is welcome, even if they get no votes at all :lol:
Bjornlo Dec 04, 2006, 08:19 AM Everyone is welcome, even if they get no votes at all :lol:
Indeed! I think everyone has Aaglo as one of their top 3 unit creators of all time. Yet the votes don't always match the love thrown his way.
Scytale Dec 04, 2006, 01:15 PM I would vote for the Triarii but i like the Sith more. Plus the Sith was created from scratch while the Triarii is only a conversion (even if it is one of the best conversions) :).
Sword_Of_Geddon Dec 04, 2006, 05:46 PM I'm voting for Plotinus unit, hes great with northern africa, and eventually I hope he does some South African units as well.
The Thud Dec 05, 2006, 02:16 AM I voted for the african. The sith, blah. Worst unit yet from navydwag.
Even the goofy lighting effects are just wrong. Just saw all 6 movies. Lightsabers are not flash lights. well ok, maybe they are, but they don't give off brightly colored glowing effects to the wielders.
Also I just do not thing the unit looks good. not just because of the glow. I voted for you last month. Gimme something I can vote for this next month and I'm back on your bandwagon.
Bambi Slam Dec 05, 2006, 03:10 AM i voted for the roman.
Plotinus Dec 05, 2006, 12:04 PM [The Thud] Thank you for the vote, but please don't make such negative posts. You've got a warning for your comments in the LH thread already. If you don't like a unit, then fine, but it's more helpful to suggest improvements rather than just damn it.
NavyDawg Dec 05, 2006, 01:25 PM I voted for the african. The sith, blah. Worst unit yet from navydwag.

Normally I'm the kind of guy that would get pretty pissed about a comment like this. However, I think it has been established that the Thud treats every creator on this forum this way. Anyways, since you can do so much better, I look forward to seeing your Sith and will certainly make use of it.:rolleyes:
Virote_Considon Dec 05, 2006, 02:12 PM I too voted for the Ethiopian Swordsman this month, although it was a hard choise!

:lol: Quoted for Truth!
Bjorn! I think you and The Thud should trade avatars; Your current one suits him much, MUCH better!

:lol: Quoted for Truth!

With a pinch of stormrage, but a sesame street trash can instead of santa's hat?
My comment is not intended to troll, but to encourage The Thud to lighten up before he ends up on a lot of Ignore lists.
polyphemus Dec 06, 2006, 07:16 PM I vote Sith, great lightning effect!!
[The Thud] is like a drunk Goldflash ....:lol:
No offense Goldflash, we still love you!!!
Tank_Guy#3 Dec 07, 2006, 02:44 PM I like them all, but my love of RTR made me vote for the Triarii.
Harek Dec 07, 2006, 05:31 PM the detailing on the roman is amazing.
kairob Dec 07, 2006, 05:50 PM yeah, although it is a conversion, just bear that in mind, plus I actually quite like the cartoony look of some units :)
The Thud Dec 07, 2006, 08:03 PM Normally I'm the kind of guy that would get pretty pissed about a comment like this.

ok sorry. I do not like this one unit you made. I do like the others. Like I posted in the other thread, I wanted to vote for one you did not enter.
And I can not make units, but that does not make me untitled to an opinion. I can not make a car either, but I still found a way to pick one I liked.
The Thud Dec 07, 2006, 08:05 PM [The Thud] is like a drunk Goldflash ....:lol:
No offense Goldflash, we still love you!!!
I do not know if that is a compliment to me or an insult to Goldflash. But since I am supposed to be drunk, I guess I better go buy some brew.
The Thud Dec 07, 2006, 08:05 PM Bjorn! I think you and The Thud should trade avatars; Your current one suits him much, MUCH better!
I am guessing this is the sorta cheese I am not allowed to repond too. pity.

And that's why you should win this. I do however like the Ethiopian swordsman in addition to your amazing units. The Firefly Serenity from you was truly exquisite.
Darque Dec 09, 2006, 11:51 PM Congratz, Plotinus :goodjob:
Rob (R8XFT) Dec 10, 2006, 12:46 AM Well done, Plotinus! Congrats to all three on what were amazing units this month ;) .
Plotinus Dec 10, 2006, 04:17 AM Yayy! Thank you. Gaias' unit was really good, but I certainly thought NavyDawg was going to take this one easily. I must admit that I did hope to do quite well this time, as I was pleased with how my unit turned out, but I think the Sith Master is fantastic. It's a Sith Master!
Virote_Considon Dec 10, 2006, 05:33 AM Hey, I just noticed that the Sith Master's colour on the poll is red!
LizardmenRule! Dec 10, 2006, 07:24 AM Congrats Plot :thumbsup: Is this your third win?
Stormrage Dec 10, 2006, 07:36 AM Congratulations Plotinus!
Plotinus Dec 10, 2006, 10:10 AM I think this is my two-and-a-halfth win, which actually means I have won more unit-making competitions than anyone else. By half a win. Yayy!
Orthanc Dec 10, 2006, 11:00 AM Congrats! Again, hopefully I'll have a few things for the December competitions, see you all there!
Flamand Dec 10, 2006, 11:41 AM Congratulations Plotinus!! Here is the trophy and the monthly glory (just add water ;)). The front page message will follow soon... :trophy:

NavyDawg Dec 10, 2006, 01:17 PM Plotinus, Congrats on a well deserved win for a great unit!
odintheking Dec 10, 2006, 02:31 PM Congrats, Plotty!
Grandraem Dec 10, 2006, 04:13 PM Congratulations, Plotinus.:)
All were 3 great entries and worthy competitors.:goodjob:
