No exact matchs, but I think they look very close at civ scale.

If you absolutely must have a STUG iv, I eventually plan to finish this one.
But it is pretty far down my list. In fact I suspect Wyrmshadow is going to do one and release it with SOE v5, and that his is going to be available before I get to this one.

I really hate that model. Ive had it forever but never bothered to do anything with it. I got a better one somewheres.

That would be great Bjornlo. I've been requesting german units to build up germany's firepower. I never said anything about massacare's I just liked the german camofauge uniform.so whats winters problem?

I can't speak for winter. You'd have to ask him yourself. But, for what it is worth I too would have declined to have anything to do with the infantry group you are refering to.
On the STUG iv, it will be a while until I can get to it. I'm sure you will stop wondering if I will get to this once you see Wyrmshadows version. He's awefully good.

What about the dukw? what number is it on the list? but whats so bad about making the 17th ss panzergrenadier division? its just a little guy on the screen with camo, belongs to the germans, and is made of pixels on the game? I dont see anything wrong with it.and about the stug IV hope to see it soon I really like that tank.

The Dukw is not currently on my list.
I have around 20 units on the list. This is more then I can do in the next several months. I occasionally change my mind and drop a unit off the list... For now I have a handful of spaceships, a couple of boats, a couple of land units and a few planes on my list. It is largely a function of how much time I have to work on them. I'm married (and would like to stay that way), I also have 3 young kids and a hectic job. I make units (and other things) for fun and stress relief.
I continue to get faster... for example, I took over a month each for my first few units but will finish 5 this month. So who knows, I might get done with everything and feel bored and make the Dukw. My problem with the unit, is there is no way to use it correctly within the game. I am inclinded to make units I think can be used fully not in some 1/2 -ssed way.

If it comes to mine or Wyrmshadow's, pick Wyrmshadow's units. He is much better then me. The ONLY reason I can think of to ever pick one of my units over his is if you prefer standard/firaxis scale. His tend to be larger. But, they work well with each other and with units from a few other unit creators. Me, I prefer the standard (smaller) scale, as it seems to fit on the map better and I like that it works with the units that came on the CD. But the trade off with a smaller unit is that some detail is lost (fewer pixels).Roman Legion said:
The only other reason I can think of is if Wyrmshadows unit is a older work, as with all unit creators he has gotten better over time. But, more so then others, he tends to go back and do newer (better) versions of many of his units.
