Those are the ships I created for the Falkland scn, in detail:

-Aviso69, french-built Corvette used by the Argentines
-General Belgrano, US built WWII cruiser used by the Argentines
-Sumner Class destroyer, US built WWII destroyer used by the Argentines
-Type21 frigate, UK
-Type22 frigate, UK
-Type42 destroyer, UK (ironically the Argentnes operated also at least one ship of this class)
-Hermes, WWII carrier, UK, modernized with a jump deck for Harriers
-Invincible, more modern jump carrier, UK
-Leander class frigate, UK
-County class missile destroyer, UK
-Sir Bevidere Class landing/logistic ship

Dl split in two parts, both ca. 2MB, the second part contains units32 icons for all units.

Well, I'm a bit unsure this time how you'll like those anims. It was the first time I made ships, and I planned to make them fit to Civ3's original ships, however, since most units are smaller frigates or destroyers I had to make them even smaller (would be strange to have them as large as the Civ3 BB or carrier), which means that they look a bit.....cute.

Here's the attack anim of a A69 corvette

Leander class frigate attack

I don't post previews for all, but those units without preview are in the same style.

Very good ships! The death anim are very nice. It's a pity you have a real life . Can't you be an anti social wealthy guy who does not need to work nor to go outside his home?

Nothing against being wealthy, however, unfortunately I have to work for my money (and my studies)

In case it can help there are already maps of the Falklands in the map forum.
Just hoping you can go through this project of yours ! You have done so much already...

Bebro, you are one of a few, who have that Civ graphic style. Your units are looking so damn good to the other original units. SUPER !!!

Excellent work - it may inspire me to start using more naval units - I tend to concentrate on land units when playing.

Bebro you are the best, I love your units but when I test out your ships they are to small in scale, and needs to be resize buddy, can you fix it.

Once again, wow!
Is there anyone here wealthy enough to sponsor Bebro for life? So that he doesn't need to work anymore?

Sponsor? Hell, I need one of those if I am to continue with my "little" contribution to the civ community.



But seriously, nice ships. Glad to have you back.
