New LOTR Unit: Rohan Royal Guard

[utahjazz7]

This is a unit for Rohan, made specifically for the LOTR mod; therefore, there are no civ-specific markings. If you wish to use the unit outside of the LOTR mod, I suggest giving it to a civilization that has dark green or maroon as its civ-specific color . . . the Celts, perhaps.

Great unit !

Continue to offer us great unit like this one, utahjazz ! Doesn't matter if they are not civizilation color specific !

 

[thestonesfan]

He's more than excellent for use with the Celts, or whoever you make green!

 

[Kindred72]

Very Nice!... Hmmm. maybe I'll start making some units again.

Beautiful job utah )

Sounds like a good idea Kindred, let me know if you need a project to work on, I could use some "people-units" help (was that a subtle request or what )

Could somebody else do a civ-coloured conversion of this unit? It is too beautiful, sweet, great, kick-@$$ to only allow one single green-colour civ to use it! Without a question, it will be in every Middle-Earth mod yet to be made, but it is perfect for a whole range of other real-life applications -- thence my desperate plea for a civ-coloured version! (That is, if utah will allow it to be so altered... !!!)

I have to say, its a lot easier making a non civ coloured version from a civ coloured version than the other way around.

Anyhow, heres the animations for a civ coloured version of the rohan royal guard. I think it would also make a good unit for the celts, gauls, franks, goths, visigoths etc.. as would the tower guard, though I've tried and found it so far imposible to make a civ coloured version of him.

Have fun, and all credit goes to utahjaz for actualy making such a fantastic unit.

Heres a little preview, I think he looks good in red, could even be a cathagian or phonecian unit;

 

[Wolfhart]

I keep thinking of Beowulf when I look at this unit, and Tolkien did borrow a lot from Anglosaxon and Norse cultures when he created the Rohirrim. I think that is plainly visible in this unit, and that he looks very much like a noble from the 6-7th Century England or Scandinavia (Sutton Hoo and the Swedish Vendel age).
