These are just skin color conversions of original units, nothing more. The pack includes Orc Warrior, Orc Archer, Black Orc Warrior and Black Orc Archer.

Very nice. Now we just need some skeleton and zombie units. :)

Very neat and cheap creation! Although Orcs are shorter, perhaps they can be resized.

Embryodead, how long did the color conversion take you? If it doesn't take that long could you do some quick conversions of all the white skinned units and make the game multi-ethnic? We could sure use some more African, Asian, and Native American units. A simple skin color change for some of the very early units, i.e. the warrior, archer, spearman and horseman, could at least get us started in the right direction.

It takes 15 min. for one unit, so it's no problem, but I don't think there would be difference between europeans and asians (unless exagerrated). I will try Native Americans tomorrow. Also I could make African set a little darker, and then another one lighter for India and Polynesia.

Just make all the colors. Then we can make a "Radioactive monsters vs humans" mod, and a "Lava People vs Lunar Aliens" mod, etc . . . :D

That would definatly be needed for my Graphics Flavor mod.

Although, the Asian warrior would need new a new head, maybe the head from the Asian settler that comes with PTW. And the Iroqouis would need some feathers in the hair or something, the head from the mounted warrior maybe...

African set was made as flavor units for my mod too (however it has 4 new civs), but that had to be easy-to-do idea, no pixel/copy'n'paste graphics so I won't do feathers etc.

Ghost Ship! Yes. That's even less than 10 minutes probably :) It will look like the shadow warrior unit someone posted long time ago.

Those look very very nice! Deffinitly orc-ish! Especially digging the orc archer :)

Err... translation:

Nice orcs. Make some more and I'll be happier. Maybe another archer or a swordsman (the bowman would be pretty nice). An interesting idea would be to take the worker unit and give him orkish skin. Nice job, again.

worker and settler in both shades would be nice. This would further advance my mod.

Yep, orcish settlers. What we really need is orcish ICBMs and such. All hail the orcs! Oooh, maybe a nice burning Ent or a roasting hobbit, too...

Fantastic to see that more fantasy units are finally being made in decent numbers. Keep up the great work!

Sounds like some of the tools for making a Civ3 scenarion like that incredible Dagor scenario for Civ2. (that scenario was/is incredible)
