New Unit: Achilles July, 12 2004

[waTTe]

A beautiful unit with excellent animation - thanks for designing it Kinboat!

 

[Colonel Kraken]

Addition to personal mod complete. Thanks, Kinboat.

 

[Rob (R8XFT)]

A fabulous addition to the Kinboat unit library ! Thank-you very much for doing it.

 

[nameless53]

is there really a kinboat unit library?

SHOW ME if there is!

 

[Yabanjin]

Great! Another more than satisfactory unit, and well worth waiting for.

 

[Vasili]

Another great unit kingboat

 

[Kinboat]

I do have a text file with links to all the unit posts I could track down. Although I don't know how to post it... Should I start a thread, post the links and then link to it through my signature (easier to update)... Zip the TXT file and upload it (I'd have to load a new one each time I update it). Some other option? Any ideas?

i dont really know what this forum can do yet but, links to your SIG is very helpful.. infact ALL THE UNITS that i never saw while scanning the 20 pages of the unit forum are from sigs.. either i didnt see it, didnt catch it, missed itm, ignored it ect.

like your CRUSADER i love and found and replaced the old one with

it was on ALUMINUM's (name?) sig as one of those things he resized.. along with chariot of doms ect... but dom i found thread on.

i only recently began looking in unit library.

otherwise i found others of your stuff by KAEL's concept art topic where he linked all the things based on his drawings...

anyway, links are good.

or you can copy paste the text file to a thread and we can copy and paste to explorer ect.

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

Achilles' group of warriors(at least in Troy) were called the Myridons correct?

Good unit Kinboat. You still have ALOT on your plate though.

 

[Arne]

Great unit and very usefull.

 

[kemal69]

Very well done. I especially like the fidget.

 

[Red Threat]

I waited alot for this... fidget is great, and the pediaicons are all wonderful!

 

[aaglo]

Great looking unit, kinboat

About the links to your other units:
you could do something like I've done. I've compiled the links to my units in one post (in one of my older unit threads). That's quite simple way to do it, and to keep your sig quite small

 

[ripptide]

Great job as always KB

 

[Midnight Piper]

Achilles' group of warriors(at least in Troy) were called the Myridons correct?

Close, it's "Myrmidons" - so yeah, this might make a good Myrmidon.

 

[Goldflash]

I haven't seen Troy so this wasn't inspired by that

Don't. Save your self the $7.25 and buy food with it or something.

 

[Halidon55]

Amazing work. His motion is so fluid. Nice job.

Don't. Save your self the $7.25 and buy food with it or something.

I thought it was worth it. Wait, you paid $7.25 for a movie? Man I wish our theatre's were that cheap. It's about $8.75 where I live.

P.S.-Great unit, though you knew that already. I'mgoing to have to make room for this in my mod.

 

[Mackel-Loos]

Beautiful unit...

Maybe could you transform your Greek Swordsman into a Foot Companion.
To do this, it is necessary to change the Hellenistic helmet into the Bronze Beotian Helmet and the colour of the cuirass.
You can also transform it into an officer of Foot Companions with the addition of two plumes on the helmet.

You could also transform your Greek Spearman into an Hypaspist.
To do this, it is necessary to replace the cuirass with a tunic and the helmet with the Bronze Beotian helmet.

Maybe could you too add a long spear (called sarrissa) to the Foot Companions to transform them into Phalangites.

If you have o 3D model of this men, maybe could you e-mail me.
I’m trying to learn “how to work” with Open FX… and it is a bit difficult without a good manual.

 

[King Alexander]

Not sure about Hypaspist... I don't think anyone is. But perhaps Machairophoros would be a better name.

What about Xiphomachos? 'Xiphos' is 'sword' in Greek.

Nice animation, btw! A variety of moves is always welcome!
