nice idea... make a unit called crossbowmen (with the new darksheer anims). give them the same stats as longbowmen (and i made them available with feudalism, since that's about the age they showed up. Then remove the buildable by flags from the man-o-war so no one can build it (still looking to make this some unit for everyone). then, make the Longbowmen englands UU (and give it a 4-1-1 bombard ability). one of the tactics with the longbowman was shooting their arrows from an extremely long distance (up to 2 miles i believe) and hoping they'd hit anything, so that justifies the bombard ability. now england has a cool UU without being too overpowering

The animation works fine now? I haven't got a chance to test them out yet. I posted them right after I finish and I just got up after some nice sleep...hehe 
the anims work fine, only in the active unit box there is a big black box around the pic of the crossbowman, and in the building box, there is a box with the same color as the BG, but which stretches a bit out over the top edge of that box, which looks a bit ugly.. but for the rest it works fine

I notice that when I finally test it 
It seems that somehow Animation Shop take the canvas color as the transparent color.
I will try to post a note in Moeniir's thread and see if anyone can offer some light on how to solve this one. Funny thing is I didn't get this error when I create the terrorist unit.
