Thats a pretty good idea( just give him a light sabre), the sw team should know about this one.

Hey and what about making a white version of it for the americans(Ku-Klux-Clan)

Great unit Kinboat :goodjob: I've been dying to get my hands on this one for some time now. Glad to see it's finished.

Wow, this looks great. Very smooth anim! :goodjob:

I think I'll use it as an early guerrilla unit, the town mob.

Looks great. What does the attack animation look like? Does he attack with the torch, or does he use a different weapon?

He swings the torch... A palette change shouldn't be too hard I might be able to swing a whiter robe. Unless some other enterprising person would like to take a crack at it? Thanks people, I tried hard to get the torch and robes to swing just so... Glad you like it.

Great job.

Thank you for sharing your excellent work. Not sure how I'll use it yet, but quality units are rare and I jumped at this one.

Would you (or have you already) share with us the process by which you model and animate your units? I'm mulling over options for unit creation and would greatly appreciate the details of your experience.

Another great unit.

BTW Just a few minutes ago I looked at the list of units you made. You have made quite a few. Hopefully you continue making excellent units.

GIDustin

Excellent work Kinboat :D :goodjob:

This guy never fails huh?
Always love your units Kinboat, it was your squid unit that enticed me into modding civ in the first place.
:goodjob: :cool: :love:

Beautiful Unit Kinboat!

Great Animiation! There are a lot of great units that are a little jerky, but this is fantastic, very smooth! Thanks for the hard work!

I made a simple little tutorial when I was working in Moray, and I started a thread there now that I'm doing work in Poser. They should both be in the tutorial threads somewhere, the first one was started by Level I believe. Actually that just links here: http://angstadt.virtualave.net/HowTo.htm
It's nowhere near perfect but I hope it's helpful. I used Moray for most of my units, the lastest ones are done in Poser.

<<I take off my hat ........>> :)
Your are always the #1 in unit creation on an Civ web-sites.
THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :goodjob:

Looks perfect!
Think I'll limit him to religious civs, and eliminate upkeep costs.

It could me also used as The Angry Mob which is cheap but requires 1 pop. unit. Fearsome.. :crazyeye:

Thanks for the unit still, it is magnifigant!!!

Ever thought about trying to make a Muslim or Aztec equivelant?

Great!

Great job, especially the way the dress moves.

Now I always wondered whether the one in Civ2 was carrying a torch or a Molotov cocktail (not for drink below or above 18 in any case).

Well I had planned on making a modern upgrade wearing a trench coat and using a submachine gun of some sort... A Molotov cocktail may be just the thing for that one.

How about making it a female unit? We need more female units.

Hey, I love women, but having this unit be a woman would be a tad unrealistic. I imagine most people would use it as a muslim extremist type, and we all know how they stand on women.

There are plenty of female extremists/guerillas. The Tamil Tigers (Hindu) have an entire wing of 3000 female fighters. European and South American groups are represented with female members.

As far as female Islamic extremists, well I just did a google search with the term "female terrorists" and these are from the first two pages only:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/gender/story/0,11812,690556,00.html

I'd search for more but the internet is really bogging right now.

I still request a female unit but I won't lose any sleep over it. ;)

I always liked the civ2 spy. Despite being pixelated, you knew she was a babe!

But anyway, I agree, we need a couple female units.

Hmm, Eowen and Arwen for example :)

I love this little unit. Even better rendition than the Civ2 Fanatic. I fondly recall blasting the crap out of the enemies with a dozen or so fanatics. ;)

I have but one thing to say: http://www.jsspace.com/lommtwt/smiley/drool.gif
This unit is incredible! As incredible as the Crusader even! Like... Incredibl-er!

I think I'm blathering.

Time to bring out the buckets ;). Goreat job on the unit :goodjob:

This unit could make a good mob with the multi-figures unit editor

Kinboat....

Could I rename this and put it in my Hammer&Cross MOD (I'm using it for the Lanzorden)

I'll give you permission....

If you mean credit instead of permission yeah sure :)

yeah, i kinda did....

doh!

Again amazing work Kinboat. I missed the old Fanatic. Nothing like an angry village mob with torches and pitchforks, storming the castle… Heh heh…

I just downloaded it and it looks great good job:goodjob:

Love this unit!
Kinboat, just wondering, would it be hard for you to but a sword in his hand and bull the hood down from his head.
I'm useing this unit to represent ancient druids, I would like to have it upgradable to a christian monk with a sword.

Shouldn't be too hard but i have so many units on my plate that it maight take a while.

Cool, no rush.

I think Kal-el was looking for something along the same lines.
I'm sure others would want it.

Great unit, but can you remove the torch?? then i could use it as a monk...

hi Kinboat,

Can you tell us which are your next planned units ?


I'm just wondering ;)

Luv to see some Ancient era unit :groucho: :D

Well I have a European Spearman... A few variations on my resistor unit... And a bunch of others but these will probably be the first finished.

Kinboat, would it be possible to replace the Fanatic's torch with the H&K MP5 you used for the Modern Resistor? Maybe you could just change the attack animation, to save some time? I know you have a lot a projects you're working on, but I thought I'd just ask to see if this would be a possibility. Thanks. :)

Nice i have a use for this!
THX

Please try not to bumb three year old threads....(If you don't have any usefull suggestions/problems and there will be chance that they get reality/solved....)

A little OT - where is Kinboat anyway ? I never saw him around, and i use quite a few of his units ...

He just kind of vanished...With the impending arrival of Civ4, he stopped making as many units, and then stopped making units period. His last time he signed on was on March 18...

Well, for what it's worth, now this thread is active again I'm gonna use this unit in the Gallic Wars mod for a druid.

You could use the unit even if this thread was not active again :crazyeye: :mischief:

I thought this was a jihadist from the title...too bad...I must wait.

So, only muslims can be fanatical?

@ Stormy. Yeah but I didn't know about it before!

You should employ some unit hunters like my self if you need any other units. Wait.. :cringe: Odin`s mages! Dammit, I forgot again! :mad::blush:

So ur a unit hunter, eh? Hmmm. Would you suggest this for a druid or is there something better lurking in the woods?

Now, ya see, thats what I was talking about in the post above, I need to compile all the mage (including druid) units out there for Odin`s mod, I just can`t bring myself to finaly do it, cos when I first tried it I accidentaly deleted it right after I was finished, and I`m still pissed off about it.

Hmm. The only ones I know offhand are this and the aztec priest unit.

There are more. Plenty more. But me axefriend here probably knows of them.

I thought this was a jihadist from the title...too bad...I must wait.
There is a C'n'P "Muslim Fanatic" unit in my mod. :) (you have it already)
It is actually produced by the Jihad wonder ... so that makes him a jihadist :D, and he looks like the collest unit EVER (the historicaly inacurate imortal).

Teh guy with the turban?

Traianus, by George, there are like ..alot!.. of mage units outthere! One other I can think of being used for a druid is the SW Sith lord, robes, hood, and shoots lightning from his underpants! I mean hands! :crazyeye:

Shooting Lightning from undapants? That would be me. Its real cool, but the ladys don't like it when it come time to play checkers.

Gee, I always imagined you would be "flamethrower" type of guy :p
Traianus, this fanatic looks very druidish too, maybe Lighting Rodney would be too much in your scen.

Teh guy with the turban?
Yep. :D
I simply HAD TO add it because i changed the Persian Immortal to a historicaly accurate one ... so i simply could NOT leave the coolest unit out of my mod.

What's this guy's attack like? I haven't looked yet. The lightning thing seems too much for my purposes.

^
:hmm: The fanatic's atack ?
He torches stuff. :)

He attacks with a torch, very effective against the Roman Flamethrower in the thread above! :lol:

Thanks, Buddies!

POST EDITED: A nice mod cleaned up the mess that guy made.
