I didn't see one in here but I remember one from Civ 4. As a modder but not a graphics guy I thought it might be nice to get one started. I'm also unfamiliar with the format for Civ 5. Can we use the graphics from Civ 4? Will they animate and perform correctly?

Units I am specifically looking for are:

Typhoon Class Submarine
Sen Toku I-400
Viking Warrior (Not so much the Beserker but more like the actual viking raiders were. Example.)

I 'd appreciate any help on shedding some light on this. Thanks.
 
We can't even unpack the fpk right now ... so we have to wait vor the sdk release ... hopefully soon.
 
More suggestions:

Marines (just starts with amphibious)
Axemen/Macemen (bonus vs. melee)
Some sort of heli-transport or APC
 
Alright, I already posted these elsewhere but since this seems to be the proper place for it I'll post them again them here.

Explorer - medieval/renaissance upgrade unit for the scout
Ranger - industrial recon unit
Guerrilla - modern recon unit
Grenadier - could add variety to the renaissance units
Marine - could get a bonus when attacking from the sea
Spec Ops - modern era infantry besides paratrooper
ICBM - why not?
Cuirassier - could replace the lancer
Apache Longbow - re-skin for the helicopter gunship

Also some more realistic near future units to replace the GDR. Maybe an Osprey type gunship a Reaper UAV type drone or a robotic/unmanned tank.
 
For England!

Lancaster Bomber
Spitfire
Sopworth Camel
Redcoat
James Bond/Spy

Mechanized infantry =/= APC.

The difference between IFVs and APCs is pretty minute - the only reasonable difference is the armament, and considering that the Mechanized Infantry already has an attack on par with the tank, I think pushing it any higher would be infeasible.
 
I dont know how to make units. I would appreciate it if someone could make these units for The United States of America:

P-51D Mustang
F-14 Tomcat
Airborne Ranger (replace paratrooper)
Nuclear Supercarrier
HUMVEE (modern recon unit)
M1A2 Abrams Tank (replace modern armor)
 
I'd like some Ancient/Classical Era units
I updated this list with the advent of the Civ 4 -> Civ 5 unit conversions. I provided links to specific Civ 4 units I'd request be converted.

1. Egyptian Spearman - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=13973 (Egyptian unit)
2. Japanese Horseman http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=11570 (Horseman unit)
3. Heavily armored version of Companion Cavalry - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=14844 (Greek unit, same as Heavy Cavalry below)
4. Heavy Cavalry - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=14844 (Roman unit)
5. Scout Cavalry - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=14405 (Greek unit)
6. Quinquereme - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=14762
7. Trade Ship - http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads/tam_ships_GDb.jpg (anyone of these are fine, I just need a trade-looking ship)

Thanks in advance if anyone can do it! :)
 
Battletech units, please!

Reseens undesirable, but if necessary, I'll take whatever I can get. For once, a BT mod has to actually get off the ground for Civ, so many have been started and never gotten anywhere.

You make the units, I make the mod.

thx :)
 
It is "zaporizhian" and not "zaporozhian"? Probably it's a difference in Ukraine and Russian languages :p.

I would like to request a "treasure" unit like that guy with a wheelcart from the Crossroads of the World mod if someone ever gets his hands on this. I want to make it possible to "plunder" city states and recieve a "treasure" instead of a pure "gold" for this, and leave it be or destroy it. I want to be able to capture AI's spoils of war, and I want to protect mine :p.

Apache Longbow - re-skin for the helicopter gunship[/spoiler]
There may be some naming problem when someone makes Apache civ and with its bowmen :p.

Deon
It is ukrainian mod and will be ukrainian name - "zaporizhian cossack" :p
 
Fantasy units, medieval units - Fall from Heaven imports of course, Warhammer Fantasy. Everything! :)
 
A standard modern looking soldier (preferably with forest camoflague or a similar type) would be great to add. The Paratrooper animations would probably be best to use for this unit (I haven't seen the animations yet though).

I want to change the Mechanized Infantry unit graphic to have modern soldiers on foot fighting along with the vehicles (maybe like five soldiers and two vehicles).
 
I would love to see modded graphic packs for each civilization. For example, a talented modder (not me) could make a german graphic pack, that would take the inf. (that looks like a tommy) and replace it with a (jerry) graphic. Take the rifleman and make him look like a german rifleman from the franco-prussian war with a Pickelhaube. Make the Paratrooper graphic into a fallschwimjager.... etc.

Then do the same with america, sherman graphic instead of the t34, and so on.
