New Units: Minor Civ City Units!

[Ekmek]

These units are a single city graphic that can be used as a unit. Mostly for cosmetic reasons but you can use the unit to place barbarian "cities" or as an additional defense unit (use high HP) on other cities for scenarios it will alter their graphics when they appear over the city

having mentioned barbarians- any chance that U'll be doing more, Ekmek ??

What would be really cool is a capitals of the world mod, where every civ is given their respective era specific capital unit at start up !!!!!!!! Think of it- Paris, London, Washington, Moskow, Berlin, Tokyo, Madrid, Mexico, Bagdad, Tehran, Alexandria, Athens Rome, etc ... wow- the'd really stick out from the normal large cities. Of course once the city is taken they r toast- but it will surely make it wonderfully interesting to give this unit a Bonus (defence, etc) but hey, it' be THE Capital after all.

Pleeeeezzzeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I like the idea, I have a lot of city capitals already but era specific may take some time though, especially trying to make them unique... I'll have to hunt around for unique building graphics out there.

That sounds really great!
Is there any chance that you could provide a screen shot? Just to give an idea how it looks in the game.

Would be great! Thanks

I agree it would be great to know what we're getting

Sorry for bringing the post up, but can you make a Manhatten city? I was thinking that maybe if there were a Manhatten, Washington DC, Moscow, etc. city then I would make them with 0 attack, 0 defense and they would be captured. I would place them on top of their corresponding cities on a real world scenario. It would add flavor to boring Civ 3 cities.

I guess I could do a screenshot but really its just civ3 cities, no size change or anything.

I want to do more cities but things just keep coming up

These are really great!

btw, can I use these in a scenerio if I give credit? I'm thinking of posting it.

If I can, I think I'll use these for cities that are too close together, like Washington and Boston, and then give them defense and stuff. But again, GREAT JOB

 

[Ekmek]

go for it

@Ekmek- you still around??? Ask Rufus about new graphics (if this project is still a go, and take a look at this thread http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=92303

i did a very light mix of custom and "lush" in the asian metropolis...
all i did was add buildings to the backround... i never felt using those buildings like wonders and stuff but i did take skyscrapers from the industrial sprawl for modern and indust.
modern is the onlyone that didnt really blend as well.

but i enjoyed doing the asian one but the "rest" i didnt feel like doing...
if you want to take some of the made-by-cut-paste buildings you could too.

again, only metropolis is changed. town and city is the same... for now.

I really like this concept but I agree that I'd like to see a lot of different types of city graphics so there can be even more variation on the map. Thanks again for the work!

Very, very, very useful. I was thinking for something like this for the ancient era, for cities like Mari, Ebla, Troy, Knossos, Susa, Syracuse... Is there a way to make appear the name?

Its a graphic- so you could..
