if you look at my posted units you can see that i asked permission 5 days AFTER posting the units , not smart huh... but hey im not smart
.what happened next is that i encoutered difficoulties in converting the units and asked Steph if he could create a modified ver of his SSB, but he was very busy , and i was lazy and disencouraged by IanMcNeil denial of permission so i let the whole thing die
im happy to see all is well now and with slitherine and paradox blessings , im looking forward to see spartan and troy units too
maybe i'll even re-install Civ 3!

All it needs Steph is an Assyrian Chariot, as this was the first effective chariot used and eventually the fall of Syyria.

Not short, just more variety to weed at older and bad graphix for units. Newer and better to replace the old. Although I'm missing many fantasy units, that isn't what is being made in this thread so I won't go there.ozymandias said:
You are lucky i have to travel a lot for my job lately... I took the latptop with me, and used the time alone at the hotel during the evening to finish converting the units. Remaining units are done, I just need to test them in game.
I have compared the size of chariots with Bebro´s, the horses and carriage are bigger, but the guy are same size, so if I reduce thm, they´ll be smaller.
Thus, I will release a normal size version first, and then a 10% smaller one later
Expect a big release tomorrow

I might be crazy, but I don't see an ini file for the Assyrian Archer.

i been away for a while just noticed these 
Chariots of War and Legion have several death animation, and several attacks. So I didn't make any ini. This way, you can just select which animation you prefer, as I include all of them in the zips

Steph,
outstanding units...
But could anyone explain some about some of these.
Like Giborim, Sheridan, Khepej, Sabballum and such.
Probably I'm not so much into these ancient tribes, but would be very happy to see for what nations I could add these as flavours...
Thanks

The Sheridan (or Sherden, or Shardana, whatever) swordsmen can be used by the Sea Peoples, and the Egyptians (as mercenaries) and the Libyans. They were one of the tribes of Sea Peoples to stir up trouble in the Middle East in the 14th BC. Their helmets were depicted with horns by the Egyptians. Some claim they originated on the Ionian coast.
The Sea Peoples Warband can be used by the Sea Peoples as the Danuna tribe, the Mycenae, and the Philistines. Their helmets have the characteristic odd-looking feathers. They are thought to have originated in, Eastern Cilicia, Mycenae, or Canaan. Who knows?

A badly needed unit, that Medjay. More African units are always a good thing.

Great Work Steph! These are pretty cool units. Still looking for those chariots and cart. I'll wait patiently though.
New units uploaded
- Gish battle cart
- Mariannu archer chariot
- Medianite camels
- Ne'arin archer chariot
- Perthale horse archer
- Scythian horse archer
- Persian heavy chariot (new version, with correct centering)
- Gish Gir battle cart or Celtic chariot
All the units are original scale. I may reduce them by 10% in some time, to propose two version.
Warning : due to the size of chariot, I suggest checking the "Range animation" flag for them, or they move close to the ennemy during battle, and overlap

Superb so far. I'll keep my eyes open for the resized versions. Finally a great selection of chariots. Your a life saver for converting these Steph. And thanks to Ian and everyone else for approving of it.
