Wow, as with all your work, great quality. This unit may be from a very specific part of the world, but at civ scale I think it could pass for a lot of other countries too. Great work!
I think it was "The Legend of Suriyothai." I've only seen parts of it, but it's a very interesting and detailed movie (albeit quite long and possibly too detailed) if you like historical epics.
Ayutthaya was relatively cosmopolitan during Suriyothai's day due to the intense competition between Southeast Asian kingdoms and their increased attention towards maritime trade. Southeast Asians utilized Portuguese and Turkish mercenaries, European firearms and armor, Malay navigators and sailors, and Chinese doctors and merchants. Quite an interesting time period for us Asian history nerds.
IMDB has it listed as "Suriyothai", but shows the DVD art of the American version with the title "The Legend of Suriyothai". Sony Classics (the American distributor) has it listed as "The Legend of Suroyothai" on the official website. According to Wikipedia "When the film was released on August 12, 2001 in Thailand, it was entitled simply Suriyothai". I think we should get back to posting about Shirou's wonderful units.
