Unit Request Thread 3

This isn’t a request just a suggestion. It would be nice for the use of cruise missile type units early on in the game. I use a powder keg cruise missile for use on land (often referred to as a petard). The powder keg and the units I’m suggesting have only 1 bombard range.

Fireships https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_ship

Hellburners https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellburners

Japanese units https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_Special_Attack_Units

These units can help turn the tide on much more powerful and better funded fleets.

One Special attack unit made by Wyrmshadow was the Okha http://forums.civfanatics.com/resources/okha.10198/
 
One way way of creating a cheap hack of a fireship that can function like a cruise missile, is to use whatever ship flc you want, and then point the Death animations to any generic explosion flc. You may acquire those from various threads.

That can't be done for the fireship because of the nuances involved in the attack flc. I’ll follow your advice on the hellburner. Thanks

I am writing what I intend to do so you know that the units I'm asking for are extremely important for my game.

I have removed rail from my game and workers can still automate. This is done by making construction of rail require a resource not available in any terrain. Airfields are used as train stations. I have altered the Airfield into a Transport Hub in name and graphics only. All of this is game tested and with the new AI provided by Quintillus' editor, the computer will use these units.

1 Infantry Armoured Train
2 Tank Transporter Train
3 Oshkosh M1070 Heavy Equipment Transporter

I've been trying to make this game for years and I need a unit designers help to get it finished.
Thank you for reading.
I do not know if you are still searching for a transport train, but I rediscovered a futuristic Maglev Train in the download area (while searching for a futuristic helicopter unit ;) ):

I hope this helps you with your mod.
 
Thanks for looking out for me Kirejara.
That's the unit that started this mod idea. There are two other none-combat train units in the database (German and Russian) but the quality is so poor that i can't use them. The unit you linked to is being used as a steam train. The most important unit for my game at this point is the diesel powered freight train. It doesn't even need anything beyond the default.flc. I can't wait to get my game posted.
I appreciate the heads-up though.
 
EDIT: No units required anymore...

For my Mod on the Sudan wars 1883-85 I request:

EDIT 30 Nov 2016: Balam-Agab has kindly made some new units in a Dongola expedition pack. Although that expedition occured much later, in 1896, I will be including these in a patch for my mod soon.https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/armies-of-africa-dongola-expedition.606412/


Ok, these units no longer requested as covered well by Balam-Agab's unit pack mentioned above:
1) British Camel Corps (colonial type helmet, blue uniform): p
2) Highlanders unit/s:
3) York and Lancaster type colonial unit: (like the British colonial units found already in these forums, only with a light brown coloured uniform).
4) British Cavalry: Hussars mainly. Mounted Infantry optional.
6) Royal Marine Light Infantry:

Thanks Delta Strife
This game’s finally taking shape thanks to you.


A suggestion for unit designers.

Give your manned artillery and archers some combat graphics for the attack 2 &3 flc's. It will provide more depth to the game and show desperation. For example have the gun crew nervously stepping backwards whilst firing small arms and give the archers a bollock knife to futilely defend themselves.
