Here's Charlie Junior.

All I really did was take the Marine, replace the green of his uniform to black and added the straw pointy hat.

I'm going to send my Guerillero and the 2 Vietnam units to Firaxis so if anybody wants to help me with Civilopedia entries and PediaIcons it would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks, nonnob! I'm glad somebody likes it. Apoly seems to be ignoring it :(

It was harder then it looks. The palette was being very difficult, and replacing the green for grey didn't help. And I'm not a very patient person, especially for things that look like they should take 2 minutes.

BTW: I love your Fallschirmjäger! Very cool! Your best yet! :love: I wish you would make more of your units with civ colors, so Argentina could use them too in my mod ;)
 
HAHA!!! Ghengis finally got an avatar! I love it! :lol:

I want to make more, and I probably will now that Poser won't let me do anything.

I want to make an Asian swordsman with a robe and a straw hat. Ever seen Ninja Scroll? I want to make the old guy! But, I have more important things to make... like a Gaucho and Bandierente. I don't want to make them but they have to be done...
 
Well, Civfanatics gives you detailed feedback. With Apoly you get more feedback but it's all "good work" and that's it. People at Apoly were actually the ones who got me to make this unit, so I'm surprised it's only been download 4 times there!

You should make a Swordsman and Knight with the pointy German helmets from WWI. Innacurate, but who cares. "Alternate history".
 
Nice unit Sween32. The AK-47 really stands out. I like it. :D

I miss the partisan unit (from Civ2), and this would be a perfect one for asian civs.

Thanks. I wish Womok would finish his Partisan unit. It looked SWEEEEEET! I'm going to use Smoking Mirror's Light Infantry as a Partisan as soon as it comes out.
 
Great job on the Viet Cong unit :goodjob:.
 
Thanks, guys.

Any other pointy-straw-hat units that you'd like to see?
 
hey sween I love your mod and your units they rock, just a few ideas for yah: 1. a Sapper I have a few ideas in my head for one. the flc could be a black pajamma guy tossing a satchel charge

2. the mortar, I saw you had asked if you could use that one.

3. a guy with a RPG (rocket launcher)

I could go on but I wont unless you want any more ideas
 
The RPG unit is a very good idea. I don't know if I'll be the one to make it, though. I still have 2 units I HAVE to make for the mod and I'm pretty much avoiding them by occupying myself with other stuff.

I WILL add the Mortar to the mod, the question is "Can I make a Vietnamese one?". I'll add the original to the mod soon, 'cause I believe the stats I've given it will have a fun effect on the game.

So, you've played the GT mod, eh? Who'd you play as? How did it go? Any problems?
 
I'm finally able to make an animated preview again...

Apolyton is a nice sight, I have myself have posted a few of my units (also just yesterday posted another two),but your right...poor feedback.
Civilazation Fanatics is the #1 Civ site in the world!

Totaly agree... Apolyton is not bad, but Civfanatics is defenitely better!

Great unit!

W.i.n.t.e.r is right too :goodjob:

When will there be the first Vietnam War MOD?

Inlcluding:
USSR - not in War but always give weapons to the
North Vietanmeses - who fight against the
South Vietnameses - who get help by the
USA - who has support from America (some big cities on the East Sifde of the Map...)
