Punic Wars Unit Pack

Mithadan, in answer to your question, those aren't turbans but rather round, gold helmets. The Elephant Archer is not actually Carthaginian at all but more of a generic elephant unit that from what Xen said sounds like it was used by Carthage's Iberian allies, or might have been used by one of the toss-up groups who hadn't really taken sides yet... In the epic game, I'm using this new Elephant Archer to replace my old one as a generic elephant unit.
Ahh, good to know, I was wondering how it related to the old Elephant Archer unit. Thanks for the info. :)

Iberian allies ? U mean Numidian allies. Carthage in fact undertook great struggles to purchase trained Elephants from the rival Numidian factions.

Iberia = Spain (no elephants there) ;)

bot true; elphant sub types, such as pygmy elephants, and, going back further, assorted type sof mammoths ranged all accross europe ;)

that said, i commented that if the Iberians did have elphants, the art work shown looks alot like what the probabley would have ended up looking like
 
Very nice units DP! :) I'll definately add your Carthagian War Elefant to the Rise of Rome scenario...
 
These look great. There's just one problem. Numidian Cavalry usually threw Javelin, instead of using them in a stabbing motion. Would it be possible to make an alternate attack animation for this? :)

Well if they ever did they would have had to import them from somebody over in Africa, since Iberia is in Europe and since the Mamoth there haven't been any pachidermes living here. ;)
 
Awesome units, these might find some room in my mod. I was rather short on Elephant units. :coffee:
 
Just wanted to say a BIG thank you!! for all the units you have made! I am always looking for new "DPII packages". :goodjob:
 
Two in the morning... I knew I should've checked this board before going to work in the morning... Wonderful :D
 
Great units Kinboat! With all of the Roman units around, I'm sure someone can make a very high quality Punic Wars scenario now.

I agree with Louis, accurately he should thrown his javelin ;)

I'll come up with pictures when I return home...

if only civilization had its start 17-10,000 years before it did historically- then we'd see who had elephant riders and who didnt! ;) :p
