Grave's Mamluk

Grave · Jun 3, 2007

This is a preview unit for my History in the Making mod. It's a UU for the Islamic Religion:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mamluk
(or it can just be used as a Middle Eastern flavor unit for a Knight)

It uses the Persian Immortal for the horse rider and the schimitar from Rabbit, White's Arabian Cavalry.

Uses Companion Cavalry's animations!

GET IT HERE!

Enjoy!

Grave, I am curious: where'd you get that Crusader unit that's in the pics? That same unit will be in BtS! Am I the only one who's noticed this?

Very nice work on the Islamic Mamluk.

Very nice work on the Islamic Mamluk.

Actually, the Crusader is a "hidden" unit in Vanilla Civ. I think it's called a "Knights Templar" or something.

He's been around a while.

That's what I thought, but I guess I just didn't remember seeing it lately. At any rate, he'll be in BtS, which is good....

good unit, but to me, it looks a bit "chunky", if you know what i mean. but really wicked unit!

thomas.berubeg · Jun 6, 2007

very nice, i'm using him in my mod.

have you ever thought of putting him on a camel?

i had a problem putting him in my mod: the rider is at a ninety degree angle to the horse.

also, have you ever thought of putting him on a camel?

You're using the wrong animations. You need to use Companion Cavalry animations.

And I second the camel request

thomas.berubeg · Jun 6, 2007

i realized that as you were answering. :mad:

sorry

Grave · Jun 6, 2007

I'm glad you all like it.

I probably won't do a camel version. Here's why: To me, it would look too much like the Camel Archer. That, and from what I've read while researching Mamluks... they didn't ride on camels, only horses.

That, and I'll be busy trying to make new units here once my History in the Making is released.

I love the unit and the part where the Mamaluks kick the Crusaders butts

am i missing something? there is no KFM file, so i am not sure how to make this unit work.
EDIT:

ok i got most of it working by using rabbit's files, except the tassals on the shield. good enough I guess.

here is the rabbit file with the tassel on the shield:
