New Unit: Ottoman/Hungarian Knight 30/07/2004

Thx for the nice comments. :)

I haven't decided yet what's next, Steph's list has lots of units for different countries from several time periods. Maybe I make several of them and release them in batches of 3 - 5 :)

Vuldacon, yeah I agree with you about the sounds, but often I can't limit an attack or death anim to 15 frames, when I want to implement some unique ideas often some more frames are needed to make it look good. ;)
 
Maybe you could to the South african Rooikat attack Helicopter? I really want that for GATTM 1.3....
 
I neeeeded this unit. In my mod I had been using a Russian knight to double as a Turkish one - now they can each have their own. Thanks!
 
Great unit BeBro!

Wouldn't it better if you remove the last frame for a more flowing animation?

Ah- ok- that's why it slipped my attention: I don't use any of those (too big and non-civ3 looking) cheers!
No one? Especially the russian units are unique.

Nice unit! Will use him as a Cuirassier for the Ottomans. :)

Anyone knows what's the Turkish word for Knight, BTW? :D
The ottoman equivalent of the knight is the 'Sipahi' (or 'Spahi', there are different spellings). But it's already in the game since PTW. I have the Firaxis version renamed to 'Deli' (turk: madman, daredevil, daring person). This was a light cavalry, similar like hussars. The early version of the Deli was the 'Akıncı' (turk: raider, attacker, assaulter). But I think this was most mounted archers.
 
There is a custom Russian Knight ?????????????????????????????????

Btw. I think we still lack a Polish Knight... after all Poland was a great power before the Holy Roman Empire made its way...

Maybe it is time for a knight pack II? :mischief:

You mean between Attack A and B? Well, I made both in a full loop, so people can use them as they wish (A>B, but also B>A). In game they play at higher speed, so one frame should not play a big role ;)

Any hope of an “ancient knights” pack in the near future?

…Like, oh I don’t know, Germanic, Gothic, Celtic, Greek, Iberian, and Sarmatian cavalry?


please.gif
 
I thought of this too. But I have so much requests that really I can't say it now definately. OTOH those are really cool units. So it depends a bit how much free time I have. Next week I have to finish my stupid Latin course first :rolleyes: Then I have to write a paper for the uni, and I agreed to make stuff for Steph (units and more). But maybe I can make some requested units (I mean other than those for Steph) here and there (also helis/planes) :)
 
You are a god of the units!!!! :worship: :worship:

You could have posted it like an Occidentalized Sipahi, if the Hungarian particle didn't be here...
 
BeBro,
do you have that Russian Knight far up your list ???
It really looked super.
Please hurry and make it.

Cemo
 
I still plan to release another knight pack, incluing the Russian one. But it will take a while. ;)
