This is my NEW napalm bomber plane, created for the newly formed JULY 26TH COALITION. It sprays burning napalm onto unsuspecting enemies.
This could also be used as a chemical bomber since it looks like chemicals being sprayed as well.

Ah, either way. I'm guarenteed a whole lot o' fun 'n killin'! :hammer:

Haha, U r a rebel until U overthrow government and put yourself in its place... then the others are the "contras" haha

Great unit! Fun for the whole family!

OH MY GOD! That has to be the funniest use of a Fidel picture I have ever seen in my life! LMAO! :lol:

ok, i think i can stop laughing now... ahem...

Thanks, guys.
Please rate this thread.

Fidel looks pleased with the unit :D

It could look great in a Scenario on Vietnam as didn't they use Napalm and other chemicals on forests? Anyway, a Vietnam scenario with the Mig-21s and the aircraft of that time would be cool. You could have the Americans with the South Vietnamese Units being American, and the North Vietnamese being Soviet Units as I believe they basically both were. North and South being played against each other by two Super Powers.

it was china that backed the n.v. army. truely over half the army were chinese soldiers.

Healz, dannyevilcat is making one the exact same way you just mentioned. you can see more about it at the July 26th Coalition thread.

wyrmshadow, not a bad idea... but can that be doen with the way aircraft are used? will you be able to cut down jungles with the operation range (not bombard range)? that could actually be how agent orange would work in a scenario.

recon, yes they did get major backup from the chinese as far as soldiers, but their tanks and weapons were mostly soviet.

I don't know why but I REALLY like this plane. I mean...I've got all the plane units posted here at CF and I like them all but this one I really like. It just looks like it's totally ready to fly low over the jungle canopy unleashing destruction. Sweet.

For the scenario, maybe you could have a communist unit that's immobile and uses the jungle terrain graphic. You could intersperse it among the real jungle on top of a modified tundra graphic (wouldn't need it for the map of Viet Nam anyway) that looks like burned up forest. Give it a very high defense value and you could use the napalm to destroy it. The communist units could move thru it but the RVN/US units would have to destroy it to move thru it. The problems would be that the "jungle" unit could be killed by other RVN/US units, not just the napalm bomber. I don't know how to get around that.

You would just put this unit in certain strategic places because you would want plenty of just regular jungle for your jungle fighting units.

Just an idea... :scan:

GREAT WORK pesoloco!!!!! Lets burn something....... this one will really be usefull.

As sween32 or someone else thought of, make it burn forest and jungles. Dont know if that is possible. The only thing that comes in mind is pillage, right?

I like this unit!!!!!! :yeah:

Thank you, my friend. Or as they say in your tongue, Dankeshane. (sp?)

And thank you to all those who rated this plane.
I was thinking it may be possible to create a plane that functioned as a land unit and use it to clear forests and jungles. Or maybe this plane, if you remove the IMMOBILE ability and give it the clear forests/jungles ability, it would work as you mention.
You would have to add a few changes to the INI file though to make it use the bombing animation for clearing forests/jungles.

pesoloco, for the vietnam scenario this can be used as the land unit Agent Orange bomber that clears forests and jungles. unless you want to make a historically accurate one with a smaller plane, either way it doesn't matter.

have you started the Napalm Bomb yet, or are you taking a break? speaking of breaks, i think mines been long enough now... time to get back to the NVA mortar... maybe tomorrow... what? i promised my girlfriend i'd take her to a movie tonight!

nice

Danke schoen... darling danke schoen... thank you for all the joy and pain... i recall central park in fall... how you tore your dress, what a mess, i confess, that's not all...

It doesn't matter to me. If you want, you could keep this as the napalm bomber and then make the agent orange plane a mixture of the game's original fighter plane and the napalm bombing animation.

EDIT: No, I haven't started on the napalm bomb yet.

It could be that I haven't played for awhile, but this bomber seems to look rather exactly the same as the original civ3 bomber. What about a napalm bomber which is more like a hellcat like in the movie 'We Were Soldiers' for extra realism? They dropped canisters which erupted in a sea of flame.

Yes, I did base this bomber off the civ3 bomber. Mine is grey, not green, and has an extra engine on each wing. I based this plane off of a picture of a b-52 superfortress I saw in a picture. It said that the B-52 was used to drop napalm, but many people have been sending me pictures of smaller planes. I may redo the plane to make it a smaller one.

the superfortress was used for napalm, but only for certain situations. take vietnam for example. when it needed to be dead accurate and hit charlie in some bushes or on a battle field without hitting your own soldiers, you would need a small low flying plane. for a village or suspected area with charlie, a b-52 would do just fine.

What if I made a smaller plane with the napalm and called it a napalm fighter?

I have uploaded ver. 2 of the napalm bomber.
This version includes pedia text and a new bombing sound.

Excuse me, (for this question) appearance is the only difference?
Explain me.

O, the necromancy!

Truly a record-setting bumb, 3.5 years, doesn't anyone read the dates for last post?

Well, be fair, it wasn't just "Well done on your X unit" - he did have a question. Although I'm a bit puzzled by it. The unit does look different from other units - that's why it's a new unit! Or was, back in 2002.

I'm puzzled too, this guy might be on to something very deep and profound, what separates this unit from the others, other then appearance? is there an essential feature not readily detectable by the eye? Is there some bond between us and the abstract creations? A truly magnificent line of thought..

Its a Recolor of ths standard Firaxis bomber with a new bomb animation. I think.

Very interesting. The perceptible qualities of the unit have changed, but does it follow that what makes the unit what it is, its quiddity, has changed? Does it mean that what distinguishes this unit from others, its haecceity, has changed? Do we have a brand new unit here, or simply the old one in a new guise? If it is new, then at which point did it become new - when the first pixel was changed, or the last? Since a unit is a type with many tokens, perhaps any qualitative change entails quantitative change. Or perhaps we have here a Civ equivalent to transubstantiation: the qualities change, but both the essence and the substance persist.

Oh, and it's not just a recolour - it's got extra engines added.

Nuff said...

For some unknown reason this is one of my fav units. Not that it is exceptionaly made or anything ... i just can't explain it. There are several very old units that were in my mod 2 years ago and that i kept just because i like them.
Another one is the common warrior but with a sword. :D I like that too, although it doesn't have all the fancy stuff of the new units out there.

one ought to make a better bomb.flc though- napalm has a distinctive look when igniting- very luminiscent...

and while we're at it...the bombing .wav file is bunk, too :p

Well discussing this bumped unit thread from an esoteric perspective is a fun thing to do while we await a certain mega huge WW2 mod with 1000+ new unit animations, but I'll stop now.
