Hi!

This is a fictional native american ship - you can use it as a galley or caravel replacement. Enjoy! :)

Thanks to all participating in the desing of this thingy ;)

Download it from here! (http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads6/NativeShip.zip)

Here's the animated preview:

Here's a sample of the civilopedia pic.

Wow! looks great aaglo, good work!

Excellent!:goodjob:

Wow :eek:, looks wonderful :goodjob:

Another example of why you're the best.

Great job! Any chance of a size increase of 30%, as well as another version that fires arrows instead of cannon (same size)?

Very nice work as always, Aaglo. :goodjob:

Hope you wont mind me using this as a Kikkula or a Tahukappi for the Hittites. :yeah:

In the INI file, the Attack1 is cannon, Attack2 is Arrows. Just make both attacks one or the other.

I plan on doing just that, splitting this baby into 2 boats - the arrow-based upgrading to the Cannon-based with Metallurgy.

BTW - GREAT unit as always, Aaglo!:goodjob:

:thanx: :thumbsup: [dance]


Woohoo! I looooove it!

:lol:
I understood the size increase of 30 :), but I didn't get the arrows_instead_of_cannon... there are both attacks included. But the arrows are fire-arrows (if you were talking about wanting to it to have regular arrows)... :confused:

BTW, may I ask why do you want a bigger version of this? Personal ambitions? ;)

A bigger version would be great! You could have a fire-arrow version at the current size and then a larger cannon version!

Brilliant work! And so great with two different attacks! Two ships that is.

... are you planning to do the other version you had modelled to? If so it'll be three ships (if you do two attacks there too, it will be four...)

But I nearly can't believe the beauty of your units!

:eek: Detailed, Esthetic, Perfected and Bonus Attack Variety...Professionally Done aaglo....
:goodjob:

Very nice, thanks for your hard work. And thanks for the variety, the multiple attacks. It's great that you provide a little bit of flexibility for us graphically challenged individuals.

NICE! It's awesome. What's next, the reed boat?

The quality of units that are made here never cease to amaze me.

Aaglo-
Awesome work! The ship looks fabulous!

Fantastic unit, finally there is a ship for us Reds. Thanks mucho! :)

A larger version would be fantastic, a Frigate replacement perhaps? Galleass version would be nice too.. but I don't want to pressure you. ;)

Another beauty!!! :thumbsup:

Thanks a lot! :goodjob:

It's a real beauty, although the Galleass is still my personal favorite out of your creations.

Now, what do you think of ghost ships? :mischief:

Great work! :goodjob:

As usual.

Looks cool. :cool: Really nice replacement for caravel.

Beautiful, great job!!!

Here we go again. :rotfl: Another boat for my mod!

Really nice one!:goodjob:

Does anyone have any name suggestions? "Native-American sailing ship" is a bit lame name;)

I don't know... But what about a native-american word for "shark, dolphin, wavebreaker, seamonster, seagull etc..."

I was just thinking of using a name like "Iroquois... etc" But another name would be good...

Found a site that translates english into Ojibwe and Odawa (Don't know if they belonged to Iroquois or not, I'm no expert on native ameircans...):

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I will use it for myself anyways:

Seagull = gayaashk
Boat = jiimaan
Feather = miigwan
Water = nibi

etc etc, I don't know what I will use though. The translator couldne't translate words like Ship, Sea. Because I thought I could use Sea Ship...

good job

Your boats are amazing. Great Work!!!!

Keep 'em coming:)

Maybe use the arrow one for a Meso galley, and the cannon one for a Meso caravel.

Thanks for the link. "Gchi- Jiimaan" is what I named it, it means "big boat". Don't know how to pronounce it, though. :D

Very nice :goodjob:. Unfortunatly, some of the names people are suggesting are very hard to pronounce, :lol:. 'Gchi,' hmm... I have honestly never seen a 'ch' follow a 'G' very confusing. Regardless, great unit.

BTW: You could always just name it Odawa Jiimaan, seems like it fit the purpose.

Deleted.

Well I know you're looking for a name so here is some Cherokee for ya.

big = equa
ship = tsiyu
sail = a'isv
war = danuwa
ocean = amequohi
arrow = gatlida or guni
oar = gagawasti
feather = ugidali

In Cherokee "v" is the Romanicized/Anglicized letter for the nasalized "u" sound. Think of it as a "u" with a tilde which is used on such letters like "ñ" and "ã".

great stuff!!!

I'm native american therefore i'm always looking for more native american units thanks a lot:D

Good job! Now finally the Native Americans get a boat thats more advanced than a canoe!

You should really think about doing a Mesoamerican boat next.
