OK, I put these additions together for my game so "The King" would have a Fortify, Attack and Victory...Just For Fun.
Thought I would upload them for anyone else wanting to add Elvis as a "Normal" Unit :lol:
The new flcs use altered game files and the Attack has my additions.

Here is a preview of the Attack.
Note that the preview is slower than actual game flc speed.

...Perhaps this should be called "the Magic of Elvis" lol
The Attack animation "Globe"s very translucent in game.

Guy, that is trippy! :lol:
 
:lol: Brilliant Vuldacon! I remember there being a thread in which we suggested whacky scenario ideas. One I suggested was a world map but the civs are represented by music genres, or labels. The King would be a powerful infantry unit for 'Rock'n'Roll'.
 
...yes, I realize trying to add Elvis as a Unit is probably difficult at best for most but this is not meant to be a serious unit. My Fantasy MOD has become so eclectic and diverse that Elvis fits in. I almost fell off my chair laughing when I was game testing him because he says "Oh Man" for the Fortify, just before the Attack and of course "Thank You, thank You Very Much" for the Victory. Because it is Elvis and the timing of what he says, it adds a laugh to my game for me anyway...:lol:

The Attack is actually a downsized Bombing Attack I made for Kinboat's "Space Fighter". I called the Bombing Attack the "Quark Annihilator" for lack of a better name...I will upload this Attack along with several units I have made additions to for anyone that can use them.
 
Absolutely brilliant... :D
Maybe a candidate for the CnP section of the Unit maker of the Month? ;)
 
Very nice Vuldacon ! :band:
I would call the attack "charm attack". This is a special flag discovered with the hacked C3C editor. But it seems, that with the last patch the charm attack doesn´t work any longer (at least I was not able to do this attack).

Nevertheless charm attack is a good name in my eyes.

Brilliant mate! That's awesomely cool. Give him zone of control and have him say "hey, you can do anythin', but stay offa my blue suede shoes" as he hits the enemy paserby?

This tickles me more and more. Great work.

...Rambuchan, Good suggestion mate and we seem to think along the same path...I was just considering other sounds for him. Problem is that the sounds cannot be long so nothing lengthy could be applied and work well. Difficult to say all in around second :lol: I do have him as an attack/defense Unit in my game and yes, there certainly must be other things he can say for improvement.
 
~ Attack speech.
"It's now or Never" (sung) or "This one's for all the ladies" / "For the ladies"

~ Victory.
"Thank You, Thank You Very Much" or "You ain't nuthin' but a hound dog" (sung)

~ Defeat.
"Uhu" or "I'm all shook up." (sung)

This has got me thinking about how cool it would be to have a Black Night unit (like the one in the Holy Grail film) which says things like "just a flesh wound".
 
Rambuchan...you have any links to those sound bytes or have them available? IF so I could work them into the flcs. Slow connection speed prevents me from getting large files fast or searching for parts of them in this case. No high speed available here on Alpha Centauri where I live ;) :lol: May have to finally get satellite.
 
Hey, Vuldacon... I might just see about getting some FF music snippets and/or SFX for when I use it as a Bard in the FF mod, and uploading them here, if that's okay with you.....
