I made this Crawling Brain unit for the Escape From Zombie Island 2 scenario that King Arthur and I have been working on. Perhaps not many have a real need for a Crawling Brain unit in their game but if you do, here you go. :)
I did not place Civ Specific Color on this unit because it is intended only for the Zombies.

All Files included and all new sounds. All Game Tested.
I was not exactly sure what sounds I could make that would work for a Crawling Brain in the game so I sort of "personified" it a bit. It is a mystery how the Crawling Brain makes sounds but that is the least worry when faced against one of these "critters".
I added a sound byte from "Theremin" to the Victory sound bytes I made. fe3333au sent this and other nice music to me but I was unable to use it due to the limited time for animations except the sound byte I managed to work in from part of "Theremin".
Many years ago there was a Horror Movie called "The Crawling Brain" and it was very Frightening...for young people anyway. I could not have the Spine Wrap around the enemy and stab them in the back of the head as it did in the movie and because it is intended as an advanced Mutant Unit for the Zombies, I made what is suppose to be a "radioactive zombie virus" gas ball that is shot from the tail end of the Crawling Brain's spine for the attack. The Brain is Full of Mutated Zombie Virus Goo...:lol:

Previews: Note that the "Gas Ball" in the attack preview is more translucent in the game.

Partizanac... If you think this is scarey...don't even think about playing "Escape from Zombie Island 2"...especially in the dark :lol:
Remember..."just because you are paranoid doesn't mean that they are not all out to get you"! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

It's finally finished! Looks fabulously nasty. It's going to be a lot of fun facing swarms of these things in the scenario. At first, anyway...

Plotinus... yes, it it has your "Friends" the Zombie Nurse and Alpha Zombies to keep it company and it happens to be very fond of them as well as respect them greatly :)
I get a Kick out of your Zombie Nurse, she is a "Scream". Many very good units in the game now and they are all very much appreciated.

Just had a listen to the sounds. The Death is genuinely gruesome, and the Victory deeply disturbing. Great work all round!

Thanks for your comments everyone.

I wasn't sure if this unit would be used anywhere except the Escape From Zombie Island 2 Scenario but perhaps someone has a Fantasy game where it can be used.
You do realize that Poor little Crawling Brains need a home too... do the right thing and adopt one today. :lol:

I am glad to see this unit finally finished. I was not sure you would continue with it when you left the Fallout Mod team. It goes into the FO mod ASAP. Very Good job. :goodjob:

Thorgrimm... Yes, I always planned on completing it and Glad you can use it. I had to put this unit on hold for seven months due to having a great deal of other work. This unit should work and look good on the Fallout Dark Map.

And thanks for completing it. Can't have a sci fi mod based on Fallout without 50's sci fi horror icons. :D Once again, many thanks my friend. :goodjob:

I am going to make it a barb that can clone itself. Should make for a VERY interesting addition to the mod. :D
