*** Unit Request Thread #2 ***

Can someone make a stick figure for me?

My requests:

- Praetorian Guard: Special kind of Legionary, but attacking with a lance, defensing with a round (!) shield. Of course the tippical Roman Uniform must'n miss as well. It could be based on the Hoplite (Attack Hitting the enimy with the shield?).

- Nubian Bowman: Only put on by a loincloth, weapon is a 4 meters long bow, but it is not as fed the Longbowman's one. It shoots very thiny arrows.

Well, I'm not only too silly to animate untits, I'm even too silly to draw them with only one frame . And I didn't find any pictures in the net

The Praetorian Guard, it is in Rise of Nations, so you just have to get someone to convert it for you.

For my unit request, I want to have a futuristic space battleship for my mod like this one:

Could anyone compose a library of Roman/Legionary units/stuff. There seems to be a lot out there. I'm not to good with these unit libraries and I was hoping that some with more experience could find some to put together.

M3 - Lee/Grant! Weird looking but pretty cool.

I would love it if someone would do the T-28 Super Heavy Tank (WWII Experimental). I'll try to find more information on it if you need it.

Edit: Got more info Here.

(First image insert, hope this works)

If anyone out there could do the Switchblade I would greatly appreciate it. This airplane is especially close to me (I have been sketching my own designs for years and saw this plane in Popular Science which looks very similar to one I had drawn back in middle school). One of the best sites I found for it is This One or you can go to the US Patent Office website and it is Patent # 5,984,231.

I moved my post to this thread (at the suggestion of subbss).

What about new unity base on street war ...
- Blood, crip, hell's Angels, Rockers, chinese mafia, italian mafia ...
- Ressouce will be base on street gang income:drug sale, prostitute, armo sale , tag ...
- Unity: shoot by car, chain, B-boys, baseball bat, knife , ...


enny idea ... please respond here

If anyone need pics, just PM me.

I would like to see MPs
(use them as city defenders and if possible, they could add a "happy face" or two if garrisoned)

Could someone create a version of the Marines from Halo? Either a single one or a group of three-five? (The armored marines, the ones with the metal plates on them.)

Added some pictures to my previous posts for reference. Just FYI

Im looking for some Armoured Bears (as describe in Philip Pullmans "His Dark Materials"), also the following units from Dark Colony:

Trooper
Reaper
Barrager
S.A.R.G.E
Sy-Demon
Gorrem

PM me for pics, or the intro video from game which is more useful (in an animation/design aspect)

units from impossable creatures ,like a shark/mantis mix

First off, where are the Babylon 5 units?

Second, has anyone thought about making any Wing Commander units?
http://www.wcnews.com/ships/ Link for ships fromt he various Wing Commander games.

Third (Star Wars), has anyone thought about making a 'Regular' Imperial Army soldier? Like taking the Imperial General/AT-AT driver unit, recoloring it brown and giving it the Civ color-specific pack from the Cold weather Stormtrooper? You might say 'there was no such thing in the movies', but I say they probably would exist. Also an Imperial Naval Trooper would be a nice addition.

F-22 Raptor

These are some pics. The plane is supposed to come out in 2005.




And if you want to see a lot of pics go here

I hereby humbly request that the following unit might one day be made.


A Sarmatian horseman:


The picture is snatched most foul from Osprey Publishing.

These Indo-Iranian boys rode around and ruined many a day for Romans, Scythians, and whoever else dared disturb them. The heavy knight-like rider here was armed with a very long lance and some also used bows. A full charge of Sarmatian knights was an unpleasant event indeed.


If you complete this unit, I shall sacrifice a thousand bulls in your honour.



While we’re at it… Would it be inappropriate to request this chap below? An Eastern-European spearman. Could be used for Russians, Scythians, Cimmerians, Sarmatians, Thracians, Balts, Germans, etc.

As if my Sarmatian horseman request is not enough, I hereby also suggest some of Rome’s early rivals.



Etruscans and Northern Italics:
The Etruscans adopted the hoplite warfare when it was all the rage and favoured this peculiar Greek way of fighting for a long time. They even exported it to the early Romans, who were indeed delighted to beat the Etruscans at their own hoplite game. I guess the Latins, Sabines, Aequi, Hernici, and Volsci would also fight in this adopted manner. Interestingly the guy on the top, with the pot helmet, looks like a Salian-Roman (pre-hoplite army) tribal warrior, so I guess he could also be used as a generic early Roman/Italic/Iapygian/Venetic/Illyrian warrior.


Samnites and hill tribe Oscans:
These bad boys fought in a similar fashion as the Romans, manipular formations, and it is speculated that the Romans adopted, and adapted, their fighting techniques after the Samnite Wars. (Evidently the hoplite formations found it hard to effectively manoeuvre in hilly terrain, go figure)
The Samnite warrior in white is part of a Samnite ‘sacred band’ or elite corps of warriors.

This is my own artist rendering of a Samnite warrior:





Moving on,


Campanians and southern Oscans.
These lads feature some adapted hoplite techniques. The Campanians mingled with the Greeks and thus created a Greco-Italic culture, the Lucanians just caused trouble throughout Southern Italy.




Oh and,

Check out This thread

Here are some more of those pesky rivals poor Rome had to deal with.

These are some later Germanic warriors

This guy has his hair tied in the special, and oh so popular, Suebian knot. Apparently, among the Suebi you just weren’t cool if your hair didn’t look like this. It was all the rage.


This bad boy could be used as a Germanic champion, noble warrior, chieftain, whatever. He is dressed slightly extravagant for a mere commoner.


A more plain Germanic warrior, though I miss more warriors with spears and without shields. Among the early Germans, pointy sticks were the most common weapons and shields and armour was scarce.

Dacians

Though this is meant to represent a Dacian warrior, I’m quite sure he could also be used by Eastern Germanic tribes, the Getae, and as a Sarmatian subject warrior.


Yet a Dacian warrior, this one evidently a little wealthier than the previous.

Iazyges

The Iazyges were a Sarmatian people, they flocked to the Danube region in the late 1st century BC. In 50 AD, they supplied cavalry to some Quadi potentate backed by Rome. In 92 AD they teamed up with the Germanic Quadi and Marcomanni and very much ruined the day for Legio XXI Rapax.
From 167-180 they again teamed up with the Quadi and Marcomanni and fought in the not too fortunate Marcomannic Wars, where the barbarians were severely beaten by Russel Crowe and his dog. In 173 the Iazyges was defeated in Pannonia. In 175, 8.000 Iazyges are pressed into Roman service, 5.000 of which are sent to Britain. From 236-238, Maximinus Thrax campaigns against the Iazyges, and in 282 the Iazyges are again defeated in Pannonia, this time by Emperor Carus.

The Unit can be any Sarmatian, and for that matter Scythian or Sakae, foot-soldier, though.
