I had the desire to make a unit, so I put this one together. I've been wanting to make something like this since LouLong requested some Burgundian units in December of 2004 (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=106536). It's been a long time since I've made a unit, so let me know if I forgot any files or didn't get the palettes correct.

Wow! Welcome back Utah! It would appear the AoK conversion is now...obsolete hehe.

It looks great - you haven't lost your touch! :)

Beautiful.
If you'll think of putting a flame instead of an explosion in front, it would make for a great Byzantine Greek fire unit as well.(there was a hand held version of the ship mount device)

Wow long time no see Utah! It's great that you still come back once in a while with an awesome unit. :goodjob:

:D Hurray! it's an amazing unit!

Very beautiful and useful unit as always. Welcome back !!! :)

Dude! Its great! And the helmet is great! Nice to see you again, Utah :)

Unexpected and awesome.
Like the way the cannon bounces and settles on the guy in the death. The size is perfect, too. I hate short people. And fat people.
Love you, utah

What do you mean size? Its just Paperdoll.. Tons and tons of units are of the same size..

Great job and nice to see you back! Now we have a precursor for the musketmen.

What an extraordinarily pleasant surprise! :goodjob: Great unit and - "Welcome back, my friend, to the show that never ends ..."

Best,

Oz

Woah!

I was just thinking about a unit like this (for my Hussites) less than a week ago. :eek:


Awesome looking unit, Utah. Welcome back. :goodjob:

Excellent! :goodjob: And for a unit-making freshman like me, it's great seeing more work from one of the 'Godfathers' himself ;)

Now, if only someone, somewhere, would make a Hussite war wagon ... :mischief:

That is awesome, utah. It's not only a joy to see you back, but a joy to see such a cool unit concept come to fruition at your hands! Frickin hand cannons. Sweet. :D

Great unit, and glad to see you drop by, old chap! :cheers:

Fantastic! :thumbsup:

What do you mean size? Its just Paperdoll.. Tons and tons of units are of the same size..Doesn't mean they're rendered at the same size. It's a peeve of mine.

Nice job! He still has the touch. :thumbsup:

I feel like a living legend. ;)


I'm glad to see that the hand cannoneer received such a warm reception here. I see there's been an influx of new talent around here, so it's nice to see that a unit of mine can still hold its own.

And, thanks to everyone for all of the warm welcomes back. After such a long break from unit making, I just might stick around long enough to produce a couple more. I even have a couple of ideas floating around.

Also, there was a request that I upload my hand cannon prop. I have posted that and the helmet prop that I used for this unit. If you're interested, you can access them from the following link.

Yay! The props are definatately needed! Thanks.

BTW, you are a living legend :) Where would we be without all the wonderful things you have done for us? :)

Yeah, F'real, man! You rank up there with Kinboat, Aaglo, and Embryodead as one of the Great Unit Makers of Olde.

What they said.

Great to see a new utahjazz unit appearing, and it's as top-quality as we'd expect. I'm sure this one will see a lot of action.

I feel like a living legend. ;)


well, without your tutorial I wouldn't be able to make units at all!

:)

Right on par with the best! :thumbsup:

this also brings a good bit of cheer...And, thanks to everyone for all of the warm welcomes back. After such a long break from unit making, I just might stick around long enough to produce a couple more. I even have a couple of ideas floating around.

Oh yes I wished for this unit as well and it's fantastic! :goodjob: And welcome back, too :)

:goodjob:
Wonderful work, as always. You always do a great job with both the look and animation of a unit.:)
