New Unit: Alpine Ranger February 15th 2005

[Kinboat]

A Dwarf on Skis... Perfect for sneaking over those high mountains. There was some discussion about making the Dwarves in the Warhammer2 mod able to cross mountains. I think it was generally agreed this would put the AI at too great a disadvantage. However I think there is room for at least one Mountain traversing Dwarf.... Here he is.

Yet again another brilliant unit Kinboat.

Great job!!

 

[CamJH]

That is pretty sweet.

I imagine that death animation was all kinds of fun to animate.

 

[aaglo]

The skiing animation looks terrific (altough he might need new soles to those skis after crossing a desert...)

 

[Kal-el]

Awesome. I have a perfect idea how to use him in my mod. Nice work.

EDIT: Seeing the note you have under your avatar, I wonder if you had been reading my mind.

Wow. Of course, I had seen the model in your avatar, but it so much more impressive to see it animated.

 

[Raw is War?]

That is beautifull!

Another winner !! It'd be nice if one of you unit makers did an Alpine unit for Finland as well....
