New Unit: Huscarl

[utahjazz7]

Okay, I've finally been able to finish this unit. Wow, it's been a long time comin'. Anyway, it's finally finished. I made a couple of changes from the first preview, but I didn't fulfill all the requests, sorry. Part of the reason was a little lack of motivation and some was I just like the unit the way it is.

He's definately a lot bigger than the Viking Swordsman, but I don't think that it's the huscarl's fault; I think the swordsman is just a little on the small side.

Fourth post, yay? Great unit it does seem a bit large, perhaps you should update the European Swordsman in size?

Oh Oh, so cool! Medieval Infantry for the Vikings? There really is a lot of units, that are way better then what the Firaxis provided us with....

Does anyone have the ability to write a Civilopeida entry?

Although there were Dark Age Scandinavian troops known as "Huscarls", troops of that name were best known as the elite of the pre-Norman-invasion English army -- so they historically "disappear" after 1066 CE.

Here's a good link.

-- Oh and BTW another excellent unit!
