Ancient units with alternative weapons

[Rabbit, White]

These are basically several ancient units with different weapons. In some cases the weapons come from other units, in other I made the weapons myself. I'm posting this in a rush so I'll just post the screenshots and the zips and be back in a few hours in case there are any problems/mistakes.

Axeman (and warrior)

Maceman

and Swordsman

The zips are for each group of units (the axeman zip also contains the warrior) and only contain the NIFs and the textures.

If i had a womb I would use it to carry your love child.

Awesome. I won't go as far as Kael in my love though....

Today was a great day for people who wanted units! I know a lot of people wanted stock units with different weapons, so I can only imagine how big this thread will get with thanks. KEEP IT UP!

Yeah sure, put a couple beers in him and that story will change.

Great, now I know your strategy!

 

[Perfect_Blue]

This is simply awesome...thank you soooo much!

Well, now I know whose units get priority.



Thanks guys, I didn't expect these to get such a response.

 

[C.Roland]

Nice, this will be really usefull, thanks.

 

[MrC]

Can you make the warrior hold a tree? That would make a nice giant!

EDIT:
Have anyone tried to change a leaderhead?

 

[Lord Frosty]

What a great addition! I'd kiss ya, but I don't want to make Kael or Woodelf jealous

 

[woodelf]

Kael's the jealous type, not me.

i love you for the mace man! thats what i wanted (but the axe is a little bit too big can make it smaller by transperancy, so big thanks for that too) cant wait to get back to skinning!

keep on the good work, now we just have to get the clue about giving him the spearman/pikeman animation and about letting him ride on horseback!

 

[GeneralGrievous]

looks good! may have to download it!

 

[GeoModder]

Oh yeah, the mace(swords)man rocks my boat for sure.

 

[Lemonhead2007]

Could you possibly make a warrior with a sword?

 

[Rabbit, White]

Well, after I'm done with the stuff I'm working on right now, I'll get back to making more variations of basic units. So, yeah I can definitely give warrior a sword.

In fact, if people have any requests for simple unit modifications similar to what I did here, post your ideas here and I'll try to implement them, though I'm not making any promises.

@MrC: I'm definitely going to try to make a giant at some point, whether it'll have a tree as a weapon I'm not sure yet.

1)can you make the Marine unit to hold the weapon from Navy SEAL??
2)can you skin the Navy SEAL to make a version without the night vision googles?
Thanks

 

[thelurgee79]

further....
can you please briefly explain how can you edit the nifs with the Scene Viewer?
Could you make a kind of tutorial for this?
It would be greatly appreciated

@thelurgee79: I took note of your suggestion. As for the tutorial, I might write it but not today, however, you should read the second part of my tutorial (in my sig) it explains some of the aspects of editing NIF files - it's a fairly simple affair once you get the hang of it.

@Lord Olleus: Well it's just a name of the unit, right. When you add it to your game/mod you can change it to whatever you want. I just used the old names so that it's clear to what vanilla unit the changes were applied.
