New Unit: Otomo Swordsman

[Kal-el]

I think you guys are right that the Otomo Swordsman should be moved over to the swordsman slot and the Jomani Warrior should slide into the warrior position. I will make a new lineup tonight when I get home.

Remember there are more units than slots because the extras were initially designed with a scenario in mind.

 

[Sheik]

These units are some of the best IMO that have ever been made. What else do you have planned?

 

[frenchman]

Great unit

Are you working now on industrial ages units ? I think for the japanese civilization these industrial units are missing....

And I like to play with this civilization ... When I'm not french of course ....

 

[Kinboat]

No I think I'm done with Japanese Units for now... I'm working on a bunch of Native American (both North and South) units plus some lizardmen for the Warhammer mod.

 

[Mithadan]

Go amerindian units go! :jump:

With American Conquest, we have lots of Native American, North and South. So I'm not sure we really need more.

However, we still have few chinese units, and even less african and indian units. So perhaps if you could look that way

Especially if you could manage to make some "modern" units (musketman, rifleman, etc)

I will take Kinboat's units over the AC units anyday.

Not that the AC units aren't good, it's just that Kinboat's will be better.

Agreed! The way I see it, AC, AoK and Cossack units are just place-holders untill we get better versions.

Updated the lineup on the first page.

why did you only include the Jomon in addition. What about all the other japanese units?

 

[Kal-el]

which ones did you have in mind?

 

[aaglo]

Good lineup, Kal-el.

One thought: I personally would use the warrior monk as a medieval infantry replacement. But that's just me

Well the Stone Crossbow, Siege Crossbow, Catapult and Canon.

 

[Kal-el]

There are several units that could slide into that slot, the Ashigaru Footman, the Bushi, the Kensai, the Warrior Monk, etc.

I am thinking the Warrior Monk will work for the Ancient Assassin and then the Ninja for the Medieval Assassin, then a Geisha unit for an Industrial Age Assassin.

I think the Stone Crossbow should be used for the Chinese, and the others are so obvious I didn't think they needed to be included.

 

[aaglo]

geisha? Someone has made that (or is it still on requests-list)?

A fan-killer

 

[Kal-el]

it hasn't been made yet, but it would be a cool addition to the game.

with the new stealth attack ability that comes with conquests we're going to want a whole line of assassin type units. Kindred has made a couple for DyP and Kinboat has volunteered to make a couple of others, but there are still a few that could be made and I am sure others will think of more once C3C is released and people start incorporating the ability into their mods and scenarios.

The Stone Crossbow looks more japanese to me than Chinese, I agree that it could be used for both, but that does´nt mean it should´nt be on your list.

 

[Kal-el]

well, it's not on my list, but that doesn't mean it can't be on your list.
