New Unit: Scottish Warrior

Kindred are you satisfied with the unit action sounds associated with the Scoti Warrior? I have a set of alternate sounds that I have mixed up that seem to work a bit more choreographically. The Run sounds in particular that are associated with this unit are geared more for a heavily armored footman.

Id like your Go Ahead on this set before I post them in case your happy with the first set.

COAtlantis, you may always do sounds for my units. You are quickly become my best friend.:D :goodjob:

And I third it! :D I am going to make it a Scottish UU, replaces Medieval Infantry, 4.2.2 stats, ignores movement cost on hills. This is supposed to reflect the hillyness of the Scottish highlands (at least I assume they're hilly, I've never actually been there.)

Thankyou thankyou thankyou Kindred for this awesome unit! I love his huge broadsword, just like William Wallace's six footer! With this unit and sween's leaderhead my Scottish civ is now complete! :goodjob:

yep ill make it medieval infantry

and yes theyre hilly :) and mountainy, and they are wet with lots of water, they rain a lot :)

ah i love living in the nice warm (yeah right) central belt, at least its not that hilly here
 
I'm adding a Scotish civ to my mod and this unit is perfect thank you so much.:goodjob:
 
Here's a pedia entry for anyone who wants it.

^The Scottish unique unit is a fierce warrior armed with a claymore.

box to build Claymores.

The claymore is one of the most recognizable swords in history. A uniquely Scottish hand-and-a-half style of
sword, first appearing at the beginning of the sixteenth Century, it is almost certainly a development of the
Scots-Irish single hand style of sword. Shorter and lighter, in general, than the continental Two-Hander,
the average Claymore ran about 55 inches in over all length, with a 13 inch grip and a 42 inch blade. Fairly
uniform in style, the sword was set with a wheel pommel often capped by a crescent shaped nut and a guard with
straight, down sloping arms ending in quatrefoils and langets running down the center of the blade from the guard.

Every able bodied man in the Highlands carried arms, as can be attested to by John Hume in the passage below
written on his experience as a prisoner after the battle of Falkirk (1746). Thy [the Highlanders] always appeared
like warriors; as if their arms [weapons] had been limbs and members of their bodies they were never seen without
them; they travelled, they attended fairs and markets, nay they went to church with their broadswords and dirks.
 
Hemm...humm...shame :blush:
