[Dann]

Holy ....!

Beautiful, mon. Thank you.

Downloading.....

Simply stunning.

 

[aaminion00]

Excellent

Where do you find the time?
You keep cranking out great units, one after another!

 

[Gogf]

Aaglo, can I ask you a question? I decided I'm going to try to learn to do something in Pov-Ray, so can you post the files here? I want to see what they are like, and experiment a little. Thanks a lot!

Hmmm... so perhaps then these should simply be put towards making the English navy consistently superior to others throughout the course of the later part of the game?

Makes sense for those of us who want to really make ultra-unique civilizations.

aaglo I love your stuff. Any chance you can do late 1800s stuff. Civ3 only has an iron clad and I think there is a huge gap between galleon-ironclads to destroyer-transport navies.

Golden Hind should be obviously a Privateer replacement for English (with better stats). Then, War Galleon could simply replace Galleon, also with additional attack point or sumfin.
They're beautiful of course

This is what I thought when I did these. I think, that English should have superior age-of-sail -navy.
And perhaps the french too. (after all, the ship-of-the-line available in conquests has french emblems in the sails)

I am two pages to late. Many thanks again, aaglo. This unit was sooo much needed.

It's GREAT! (both versions are great).

If you are going out of sailing ship ideas... how about a two masted sailing ship? I think, a brigg or briggantine would be a good addition to all navys, privateer-fleets or trading fleets.

 

[Mithadan]

What can I say? It's so beautiful!

 

[Gogf]

Thanks so much Aaglo !

 

[Aluminium]

These are perfect ships!

aaglo,

I too have no end of admiration for your artistic skills.

I have one request for a unit that should be very easy for you to do since it will be based off of your ancient age galleys: could you make a cargo ship from the galley models ?

I'll try to find some pictures for you, but a quick search hasn't yielded anything good. From the NG articles I have read, the ships were almost as long as the warships, but much wider to hold cargo. The one suggestion I would make would be to make the sails as the civ colour marker, though there is nothing as beautiful as a billowing white sail and some spray from the bow wave.

Holy crap... err... Gen. Dragon, there's a 5 line limit to signatures... lol

 

[Gogf]

Sounds like a good request Gen.Dragon, but as Aaminion said, there is a five line signature limit.

I could maybe try

I'm posting a little late, but aaglo I did want to say that your units are top quality. IMHO these latest units have even surpassed those standards. Thank you for all your work!
