Request: Inuit Units

[Corvex]

There's already an extremely good Inuit leaderhead out there (though I can't remember who made it), so what we really need now are some decent Inuit units. So I am therefore humbly requesting that one of the extremely talented unit makers on this forum will consider producing the following units:

Kayak: (reference here)
As you can see in the link, this unit should be a simple one-man canoe in which rides a guy in hooded parka. For an attack animation, this guy could hurl harpoons.

Dog sled: (reference here)
This one is probably more complicated: The guy driving the sled should also be in a parka, and he too should hurl harpoons as his attack.

Please, the Inuit are very interesting tribe and I hope that someone will take this into consideration.

I've been barking about a Dogsled for ages! I whole haretly agree and the Kayak is a cool idea as well.

I think an Inuit hunter would be cool as well. (with harpoon not modern rifle)

 

[Corvex]

Well...anyone interested?

I'm pretty sure someone did a Kayka a long time ago, I'm pretty sure I used the unit in the American Continent Mod and we have a unit very similar of the Dog Sled. Well, I'll need this unit again in a future mod, maybe I do it wasn't done by other unit creator until there

 

[ShiroKobbure]

yes there was a kayak
a Inuit Javlen/harpoon man would be cool
I dont know that the Inuit really went to war, even when the Russsian invaded

 

[Dark Russell]

I was hoping to mod them into my game as a "minor civ" resource.

There is a kayak but it doesn't exactly look 'Inuit' (the guy who's paddling isn't wearing a parka). The Wolf Chariot (which is customarily used for a dog sled) isn't the best for a number of reasons: 1) It's drawn by wolves, not dogs 2) There aren't enough of them (the wolves) 3) It's a chariot, not a sled 4) Chariots would be useless in the high arctic

Oh! I missed your little pun the first time I read through this thread. Maybe it's just the wierd mood I'm in right now, but for whatever reason, I think it's really funny right now. "Barking" about the dog sled . . .

Well, you could just say that the Wolf Chariot won't work because it's a chariot drawn by wolves.

But, I think your way of putting is funnier.

Utah if you are all interested in making some Inuit units, I would love to design some concept art

Not to mention that the guys driving the chariot are goblins.

The Inuits are alot of things, but not Goblins.

Well, I'm interested, but I can't say that it is likely that I will make any. Still, I do appreciate a nice concept sketch every now and then.

Goldflash Comment:
Personally, i think the dog sled attack should have the dogs attacking the enemy as well...

PLEASE DO!!!

By the way, Goldflash, you're right; now that I think about it, it would be cool if the dogs attacked too.
