New unit: Ghost Ship - the Black Pearl

[Grandraem]

Holy crap, this is great!!!

 

[spincrus]

The Flying Dutchman!!!

 

[Raw is War?]

Love it, great work!

 

[tjedge1]

Supreme. I will use that for my civ called Nithia. They love the undead you know. This will make a great ghost ship, better than the last one which was just a faded out version of the Frigate. As usual aaglo. Great work!

 

[TVA22]

spectacular!

 

[Kal-el]

one of the coolest deaths and attacks I have ever seen!

 

[DoubleT]

WOW One of the best units ever

 

[The Great Quan]

Aaglo is the king! (or admiral or whatever) Just a Wow!

 

[The Outsider]

This is a must use. Been trying to start a mod and had need for a ship of this beauty.

 

[Verax]

Man Aaglo, you are really producing high quality units, another fine entry to my library. Thank you.

Absolutely fantastic!

Now, the only problem I've got is to device a way to include this into my mod... Is there a way to have it as one possible choice for barbarians or would it replace all the other ship variations that the barbarians use... I have very little (read: none at all) experience of modding barbarian units...

Unfortunately, barbarians can have only one type of ship.

A way that barbarians could have different ships would be to give the enslve ability to htis ship as the buildable barb ship, then the enslaved ships become a pirate ship per say and if you have other barbarian ships they would all be given the enslave ability and to turn the ship into another barbarian ship. That is a theory that I haven't tested but it sounds like it should work to me unless I'm mistaken on how enslavement works. I was thinking of doing that in my personal mod one of these days.

 

[Mithadan]

Cool, I like that idea a whole lot! Hope it works, but I can't test it...yet...

Hi

It looks grea, but how do do actually put it in the game? and where precisely would it show up? (I.E. what civ/where on the tech tree etc)

Sorry to ask this, but I've never put a new unit into the game before, this one looks wicked tho

 

[Gogf]

What we are doing in Bobby Lee's mod is that privateers enslave to them, and that is the only way to build them. They also have better stats than privateers.

Colonel Kraken has made a good thread to help with adding units to C3C. I learned the hard way myself, by fixing whatever error it gave me till it worked inthe game, but that was frustrating and time consuming. This thread will be more helpful. If you don't have Conquests then just check the tutorials forum, and there plenty of older threads with Civ3 tutorials.
Here is the thread: Adding units to C3C

 

[Madgenius]

Thanks I will check it out now

 

[Warspite2]

aaglo, this is a really neat unit! What do you recommend the tech be that brings it in and what stats should it have?

 

[tjedge1]

My geuss would be the same one that brings in Privateers. It is afterall a Ghost Pirate ship, right?
