*** Unit Request Thread #2 ***

If someone could make a more primitive spearman animation that would be great. It doesn't have to be a spearman but some really primitive defensive unit.

I would also like a rock thrower unit.

Does anyone have a British Indian Force for download anymore? I have searched the library but it says the attachment no longer exists, that unit would really help.

Thank you.

Also does anyone know of a good Roman archer replacement?

OK... But could you point me in the right direction? I did a search before I posted and couln't find anything appropriate.

I don't know where to point you, I saw that Steph was using an "alpine trooper" as a unit. Let me look.

An archer that is defended by a spearman.

I'd like if someone would be so kind as to make a Metal Gear unit for Civ3. I think that it would be a cool unit to have in modern near future mods and scenarios as some sort of final unit you can get or something along the lines of that.
PS: The main reason I'm not doing this myself is because i lack the programs to do it, and I'm not all that good with those programs either

Well I think most of you or some of you don't know what a Metal Gear is so I'll tell you and show some pictures.

A Metal Gear is a huge bipedal vechile, capable of carrying and launching nuclear missiles. It is also armed with ALOT of missiles and other weapons.(mainly machine guns and stuff) There's not much more to say about that, so I'll show you some pictures and info on two different models.

Metal Gear REX
-----------------------------------------------

Metal Gear REX is a pretty standard Metal Gear as far as my knowledge goes, it is heavily armed(Nuclear Warhead(s),Missiles,machine guns etc.) and armoured.
Here are some pictures.
Metal Gear REX
Just watch the pictures here to see more of Metal Gear REX
Metal Gear RAY
------------------------------------------

Metal Gear RAY is the new anti-metal gear model, it is mostly armed with the same weapons as REX (except that I don't think that they carry nuclear warheads) except that RAY may fire cluster bombs up into the air and rain death down on it's enemies. Metal Gear RAY is also amphibious and may cruise deep underwater like a submarine.
Here are some pictures.
Just watch the pictures on this site

That's the end of it, I would really appreciate if someone made one of these.

Could somebody please make a WW2 German paratrooper.There is an older version that uses Army (Wermacht) uniform and helmet. But IMHO every ww2 scenario needs one...
this site has nice photos:

a winter camo version is here:http://www.kolumbus.fi/fishu/image1.jpg
a forest camo:http://www.ww2modelmaker.com/modelpages/GJssfalfig.htm
green camo:http://militaryillus.home.att.net/id43.htm

Balou's spetsnaz with the right helmet could be just right...

Just a general concept but I would like some future era units like bipedal robots and stuff like that. As well as units like Drow (Dark Elf) swordsman and lizard riders. Thanks!

It would be nice to have a Witch unit. Something along the lines of a typical witch that might be seen in a Harry Potter movie. Not something ugly like the Wicked Witch of the West. Neither something too pretty like the Good Witch, also seen in the Wizard of Oz. The important thing would be the pointed hat.

There could be two versions: one standing and waving a magic wand; and another one riding a broomstick and waving a magic wand.

This could be used for some sort of Harry Potter mod. But that's not what I had in mind. I have a Witch unit in my mod, but I'm just using the Princess.

If anyone has read the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, than I presume that you know what a Warder and an Aes Sedai is. It would really be great too have those units created. Look at the cover of the first book, The Eye of the World for reference. The big guy on the front is a warder, while the small woman is an Aes Sedai

tanks that look like insects would be alright

Could someone please make a Ranchero unit that could be used as a cavalry flavor unit for Latin American civs and a Californio.

I'm short a few, critical units:

Gnomish Submersible Boat- Like a primitive, funny-looking ironclad, cannon attack, steam-powered with smoke coming out a stack. Never successfully dove before. Nonetheless, the gnomes just keep pumping them out!

Gnomeflinger- a quirky, complex-looking contraption of the gnomes that looks like anything from a trebuchet to a ballista to a catapult that launches gnomes into the air for transport or combat! Preferred animation would be a gnome sailing through the air!

Draconian- lizard man with short, mostly useless wings, explodes or turns to stone on death, would prefer two units with both death anims.

Gold, Silver, and Bronze Dragons- but I am willing to add Copper and Brass, as well. Kinboat has anims for blue, red, green, black, and white dragons, if needed, I just can't find any "metallic" ones.

Carrack and Frigate- both with attacks w/out cannons, since gunpowder is not used yet (aside from a few gnomish experiments!)

I really appreciate the hard work all you animators put into your creations! Thank you for taking the time to make these units, if you can! If you do create them, please let me know in the thread I started, there's a link in my signature!

Thanks!

Mexico City (a.k.a. Tenochtitlan) was built on a lake by Aztec settlers on floating platforms of whatever-it-was (dirt and floating plants?) that soon joined together and replaced the lake below. So my question is: Is there anyway to get an Aztec specific settler that the AI can use that isn't a land unit? If so, does anybody want to make it? (It would have to be an air unit to go on both land and water)

Suggested stats

Class: Air

Attack, defence, pop cost, cost, ect. same as settler

no immobile
foot unit
whatever else you want

Mabey an animation with a canoe?

I hope this doesn't sound like gibberish. I'm really tired.

This guy would make a great futuristic BlackOps unit.
There's a bigger picture here.

Anyway, it was just a passing thought...

Had an idea last night for a new Civ.

“Organized Crime” or “The Mafia”

Ancient could be somewhat like the barbarians, something along the lines of the Visigoths or the Vandals.

Middle ages could be Robin Hood and his men.

Industrial could be Al Capone. Men in suits with Tommy Guns, Model A Fords and Wells Fargo Armored Trucks.

Modern age could be the Chinese Mafia with tricked out Hondas, Uzis, and rocket launchers.

Of course there is always the Columbian drug cartels if you want more heavy armor in the modern age. Or better yet, the CIA.

Just a thought for those of you that like to create stuff and need new ideas.

Hello Everyone,

Correct me if I'm wronng but I think I did not see any steam ships with paddlewheels in the forums. I checked the unit library and some other potential threads. If there isn't any I'd love to have paddlewheeler ships like the ones in Imperialism. One for transport/trade and one for battle (Raider)(Like CSS Alabama)

Hello again,

I'll also be glad if a genius here makes a starcraft unit that can be used as a futuristic unit.

Some of my requests are:
Terran Siege tank
Terran Ghost
Terran Wraith
Terran Valkyrie Frigate
Terran BattleCruiser

Protoss Corsair
Protoss Scout
Protoss Carrier

Thanx for anything!

Hello!

Can somebody (muffin, kindred72, someone?) make a female rifle .. person?, to go with the amazon units, the musketgirl, etc etc?

Kindred72 made a "tomb raider" unit that I use instead of infantry is that what your looking for?

No .. something corresponding to riflemen .. before infantry, after muskets. There's 2 or 3 things you could use for infantry ... nothing for riflemen.

Something like the industrial era figure from Frenchman's erasplash screens:
