New Unit: Modern Soldier

[TerraHero]

mmm..i may have use for this after all as an armed scout

A8. D10, M2 Upgrade of an explorer

 

[Kal-el]

he's very cool, but could somebody color his helmet to match his fatigues?

 

[Costa e Silva]

Kinboat. How about do a Aztec Rifleman or Musketsman?

If the Aztec had time, they probably would make their own guns, and the units would be very diferent from euro standart...

I believe that will be very cool to have a Aztec aproprieted musket unit. Ana the uu Jaguar Warrior could be the start to design this unit.

Ah... Excelent unit, i am already using.

Sorry for my english...

 

[Yoda Power]

Costa e Silva you dont have to exuse for your english all the time

 

[PCHighway]

I believe the Mexican Villista could be used as a good musketman\rifleman replacement for the Aztec.

 

[Kal-el]

that is how I am using the Villista in DyP

 

[Costa e Silva]

I am already using the Villista. And it's a nice unit, and also a good alternative to Aztec rifleman, but the concept is "after" colonization, and i sugest to build a unit that never happen, but would if aztec people had time until the arrivel...

I agree, the Villista is a good option to rifleman, but a more "closely" musketsman unit will be very nice...

The european musketsman in someway is "out" of aztec look.
I am already using especific regional units. So europeans units are just been used in europe, what generate some problens, because there is many euro units, some asian, few american (native), and even less african.

I usualy play with mediterranean civs, but i concern about game's perfection, and civs diferences...

Thank you anyway!

 

[Kal-el]

I would love to see some alternate reality units

 

[Kal-el]

ok, since I really like this unit but wanted it with a green helmet, here is the conversion. Hope you don't mind Kinboat.

 

[Kinboat]

Don't mind at all Kal-el.... An alternate Aztec musketman does sound interesting. I might look into it.

 

[aaglo]

There's one problem with these modern units -
they come so late in the game, and thus it takes a long time to see them in action...

Good job, Kinboat

 

[Steph]

Create a scenario with modern units only!

 

[TerraHero]

i'm using the tan color helmet. I'm gona use this unit as an Modern Militia
Cheap en Easy too build. I got an ancient militia and this will fit right on.

 

[Leningrado]

Great unit kinboat
I am working on a mod about the Great War book series, and someone told me that you made some ww1 barrels(sort of primitive tanks), where can i get them, and can you autorize me to use them in my mod?

 

[Kinboat]

If you look in the Library thread in the Units forum Page 13 for the British MK4... Page 14 for the German AV7... And a WW1 armored car the Lancia IZM on page 17. Yes you can use them.

 

[unscratchedfoot]

Nice variety unit. I'm gonna make a modern era mod with only the modern era (no tech at all - everyone has it all) and all nations have unique units then fight on one big landmass. This unit will be an excellent addition.

 

[TrigunM7]

very good unit, it would be great for a Desert Storm scenario, if his fatigues were tan (hint, hint)

 

[gorn]

It would be great if we didn't have to deal with 1 year old SPAM in these threads ...

If you've got a request for a unit maker and the last post is almost a year old, PLEASE pm them instead. People check out the bumped thread expecting to see an update or something valuable/interesting, and instead see irrelavent spam like "gee, that's great!"

 

[Kal-el]

I completely agree with gorn on this one, but to be helpful, here are a couple of links to color conversions of Balou's Modern infantry. You may find them useful until someone makes a Khaki version of this unit.

hope you find these helpful, and next time please place requests either in the main creation & customization thread like the sticky at the top of this forum indicates, or pm the unit creator directly.

thanks for your cooperation.
