New Unit: Imperial Legionary

[BeBro]

Well, I´ve lots of ideas, also for other ancient or medieval infantry units. But currently I have no concrete plans - the main problem is lack of time. I guess once the x-com stuff is done, I can mke more different units.

So I will not promise much now, but I´m quite sure that I´ll make more of these infantry units. I just think I shouldn´t announce too much at one time.

 

[Kal-el]

good thinking.

 

[Ossric]

:worshp: sweet!! :worshp:

 

[Michael York]

How about using it as a normal swordsman only at a discounted rate so that the out of box represents Preatorians and these represent the standard legions. (or something like that). This is such an awesome unit I might have to add it (something I haven't done before)

 

[Rocoteh]

With all respect BeBro,
will there be any Cheruskee warrior
which can challenge this Imperial unit?

 

[Hygro]

It's so beautifulllllllllllll

 

[puglover]

Sweeeeeeeeeeet! I love Legionaries! But why does he courtsey when he wins a battle?

 

[Death_Incarnate]

you are my hero!

 

[Hygro]

I've found this unit somewhat buggy... is there a fixed version? I ask because I love the unit but it's just a little too out of sync for me to use over the normal legions.

 

[BeBro]

Can you describe the problem a bit more? Then I might be able to fix it....

 

[Hygro]

Well, when he walks, it looks like he floats, and the first attack takes a while (not too big a deal), and the sound's a bit off (though you said that was fixed somewhere around page 2 with the new sounds).

He just glides around, looking like he's half a foot above ground and his legs kinda dangle.

Other than that he's awsome, (like concept and artwork) so I want to use him, but I feel I need the highest quality units in my mod (so it doesn't feel too much like a mod. I had to take away the colonial infantry because of this)

 

[Halidon55]

Great unit. One of the best and most detailed units I seen done. Just some helpful criticism, have you noticed that the unit's death is a little stiff?

 

[BeBro]

Do you mean that he falls so straight down?

Well, perhaps I should rework this unit, then I also could fix some other things. But I can´t do this so soon, since there are other projects....

 

[Halidon55]

It's still a great unit. One of my all time favorites.

 

[Pangur Bán]

This unit is awesome. My favorite now

@Bebro

Since i´ve seen this superb unit, i know that you can do foot units. If you are bored and don´t know what to do , i have a special request of "U.S. Navy SEALS". I´m looking for this unit for a long time, but Balou isn´t here anymore and i think you can do it with the same quality. PLEASE HELP!

 

[TopGun]

I incorporated this unit into my Mod as "Praetorian Guard", kinda an elite legionaire unit.

Great unit, Bebro!

 

[Darth Bob]

Great job! It looks just like the real thing.

 

[denyd]

Trying for some reasonable stats for this guy, how about:

Attack: 4
Defense: 3
Speed: 1

Bombard: 1
Range:0
Rate:1

Cost: 50 shields
Available with The Republic
Requires Iron to build
Upgrades from Legionary
Upgrades to Musketman

Probably the best looking unit I've seen. Once I get the stats figured out I'll have to add him and see the animation.

 

[Madeira]

I made this one the Legionary with 3/3/1 and 2 extra hit points (making it a heavy infantry), both offense and defense flags, then made the Firaxis one a Centurion with 4/2/2 and 1 extra hit point, offense flag.

The current version's animations have a few problems, the walk animation is a bit screwed up and it falls too slowly in the death animation, but I believe BeBro is working on an update with alternate graphics for different time periods, cant wait!
