Importing Civ VI units into Civ V?

[pineappledan]

Is this possible? I've seen some unit skins and ideas which are sorely lacking from the civ V unit choices.

Deliverator made an Armatoloi unit for his 6 MOAR units pack, and the custom Thule civ has a dogsled unit, for instance.
How much work would it be to adapt these into civ V?

Back porting Civ 6 fgx to Civ 5 .gr2 should be entirely possible but you'd need to go via Blender.

Process would be:
1. Export .fgx model to .cn6 from CivNexus6.
2. Import .cn6 into Blender.
3. Export .br2 file.
4. Import .br2 file in Nexus Buddy 2.
5. Animations would have to all be exported to .na2 from CivNexus6, imported to Blender and then exported to .fbx for import into Nexus Buddy 2.

The issue with units would be:
1) The more exaggerated, cartoony style in Civ 6.
2) The fact that the Units in Civ 6 are built up from individual parts Armors, Helmets, Shields, Bodies. You'd have to combine all these parts in Blender to have a complete human unit.

But technically I think it's possible although I haven't bothered trying it. It would be quite a bit of work.
