Did you ever fix your problem. What it sounds like is you just have the individual components, like you should. If you look at the regular Civ3 units, you'll notice that they have a bunch of files you can't look at either. Just stick them in a folder with the same name as the ini file and the name you want to call it.

utahjazz, all the units you make are real spunky. Any chance of you making a mongol mounted warrior for the Middle Ages conquest? Please.. pretty please...

Have you seen Kinboat's Mongol Horde?

 

[unscratchedfoot]

Wolfhart, thanks for the link dude. That mongol horde is perfect.

What about do an egyptian version?
Same unit. Diferent armour and helmet...

Do you got a picture of what it would look like?

And will the Eastern Cataphract be good enough?

the egyptians did NOT use cataphracts

 

[Costa e Silva]

Thank Xen, i know that, in thruth i just wanna some unit similar that Egyptians could used if they weren't take by Babylons, Persians, Greeks and Romans, what destroyed they cultural "line"...
I wanna mean "fictious" unit...

As for stats, Xen and I have been discussing this.
* 3-3-2, and comes with say Construction (so not as good as Knights)
* 5-3-2, which I think is a bit too strong (Rome/Byzantine UU)
* or split the difference, 4-3-2 (and have it replace knights for the Romans & Byzantines)
In reality, they also carried bows, so you could also give them a 'defensive bombardment' of 2, with range zero.

I think it should be a defencive unit. What about 4-5-2, available with e.x. Education?
