Modern Infantries of Asia

[nick0515]

Shiro thank you so much. I have been waiting for NZ soldiers for a long time! Can't wait to test them. The mustache on the SAS guy is a great touch. Very NZ army!

Thanks too for more machine gunners!

So you think the PCX doesn't have enough detail or the units have too much?

No no. In my view all fine. I just meant large pcx is a worthy addition to show lost in civ scaled animation details. For every unit here. As always be

Great units and great attention for details: Australian infantry has the latest camo (despite I posted an older version in my pics). Also very well done SAS soldiers.

I love having MG team paired with standard infantry riflemen too. Good job on these too.

Same appreciation for your units in "generic infantry" thread

thanks

 

[Don Pepito]

Thank you for so many new modern units you're creating!!!!

 

[Wolfhart]

First of all: great units!

Then some feedback:
The Default flics of the Saudi Infantry, the Aussie Infantry and the New Zealand Infantry, the Death flic of the Revolutionary Guard, and the Victory flic of the New Zealand Infantry all lack shadows.
The Death flic of the North Korean Worker is off centre.

damn, I have been having a problem with shadows disappearing on files. Sometimes I notice it have to re-render the whole thing over again...

 

[Redback]

ShiroKobbure! Can we expect an European pack in the further?

 

[ShiroKobbure]

Not anytime soon, I might make a few special requests. I thought about making a "Rest of the World" infantry pack.

If anyone with Poser wants these animations, I'm happy to share. All the guns and props were either from this site or other free sites so I don't think there is an issue.

Maybe you could share them in the animation library

Hi Shiro, I was wondering if you're still working on these. I could need a modern Japanese Marine, for example.

 

[wolf_66]

Japanese Self-Defense Force has no Marines or specialized amphibious infantry, neither in the Army (Ground Self-Defense Force) nor in the Navy (Maritime Self-Defense Force). As far as I know, the only similar unit is MSDF Special Boarding Unit, a small (less than 100 personnel) special forces unit, similar to British SBS.
Nevertheless this may change in the future as Japanese Ministry of Defense has recently decided the purhcase of a first small group of AAV-7 assault vehicles.

I am not working on these, but I haven't abandoned them, I am just very busy these days. I actually have quite a few units done, I just havent found the motivation to do the work to make them into FLCs
The next back does have a JGSDF unit, but he is actually a variation of the old one. Because after reading I thought his gun is a bit out-dated.

Japan does not have a real marine corps, I think this is probably due to the idea that attacking from sea and landing on land is usually done in an offensive maneuver. But the JMSDF does have several landing craft both for men and tanks. I don't know who they are meant to carry, I assume the JMSDF would carry the JGSDF infantry from the sea and the JGSDF would make the amphibious assault. The JGSDF does have some sort of marine-type units, the Western Army Infantry Regiment and the JGSDF Rangers, I think that these would be thought of more as Special Forces though.
But with recent events, I wouldn't be surprised if Japan begins to train more specifically marine-type units.

The next pack will likely be Korea, Australia and New Zealand, but Pakistan and a Gurkha are also on my immediate list.

Hm have the Gurkhas been lost, or are they imminent Sir

Well I guess the Assam Regiment could step in, but.

 

[Ryanbeolve]

I cant wait to see what you come up with next!
I've been frequenting this site for a long time, silently gathering units, and ShiroKobbure, I am a huge fan!

 

[ShiroKobbure]

Update,
Some units have been moved to a new Middle Eastern thread

 

[Ares de Borg]

A special thanks for the Mongolian infantry - a very needed unit in the Civ3 world for sure. If you ever get around to make a Mongolian MG and special forces, that would be great.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Sorry for the late response but these are very good units.

 

[TopGun]

I'm still stickin' to my guns (pun intended ), but you guys are making this very difficult for me to not want to go back to playing again.....

 

[HHJericho]

These additions are great but the North Korean one, I don't see the point in adding it if their is no North Korean mod that anybody can find, I'd like to see a Kim Il-Sung leaderhead made with a special unit and a new wonder added maybe Kim Il-Sung square, I asked CivArmy hasn't gotten back to me but adding a North Korean leaderhead of Kim Il-Sung would be awesome
