Well... exactly. Both of those styles would be part of the South American set and then we could eventually reskin more directly for specific cultures.
This would all blend VERY nicely with the Adopt your Culture project if we can figure out how to redefine the skin and model of a unit based on one of its possessed combat classes. I DON'T think that would be terribly difficult actually... Been thinking a bit on this subject and can see it working out. I may even work on that quite soon. Seems to blend with the current project pretty well.
The plan for Cultural Combat Classes did not initially involve giving them a culture definition from its 'BASE' culture (or should we call this 'Ethnicity'?) But if I include those Ethnicity culture definitions in the Combat Class outlook we could use those to cross reference with the unit itself to find the definition for each unit's
current in-game skin, model and animation file. We'd keep a core definition for these on our units for the sake of the pedia but would in-game redefine based on the automatically assigned Ethnicity that would stem from the base culture of the civilization - redefined later when the unit picks up more cultural definition (though that part would have to wait for the 1D style property mechanism being established to manage cultural spreads and influences on cities.)
I know... probably a lot of blah blah whatever he said stuff but if anyone is following me here feel free to comment on if you think this is a good idea or not
