I've been working out some of the new units that I proposed. I've got three of them done so far. The first is the
Ram that comes available at
Woodworking. It's a simple unit: Strength 2, Moves 1, can bombard defenses for 4% per turn, can't actually attack.

The unit model is from C2C; I couldn't find a better ram that didn't have a frame on wheels, and I don't want to require
The Wheel for this. I did discover that the f-scale was too small; it was set to 0.44, which gives a much smaller unit on the map, and I wound up with 0.7 instead. I also made a new button by creating the unit and zooming in as close as possible with the flying camera, then taking a screenshot.
For now, the Ram upgrades to the
Catapult. Down the line, I would like to develop the Ram line into a trio: the Ram, the
Battering Ram, and the
Siege Ram. This would also necessitate a new Assyrian UU, as the Battering Ram is currently their UU. The Battering Ram would come available at
Warfare, and the Siege Ram at
Siege Warfare. The Siege Ram would be very, very good at battering down defenses (probably around 20% per turn) because it would be competing with the
Trebuchet throughout the entire Medieval Era until upgrading to the
Bombard. All Ram units would be bombard-only and could not attack.
