Yes, it is the British paras. I couldn't find any pics of real Paras, but I did find some pics of some models. I;ve attached a pic and a short description:

The Parachute Regiment only dates from 1940, but its short history has more than made up for a late start. In fact, the first Para unit was formed by 370 men of No 2 Commando taking the first full parachute course in 1940. Volunteers formed 2 and 3 Para Battalions in 1941 and the Parachute Regiment was formally listed with the Infantry of the Line next year. The red, or rather moroon, beret also came in 1942 and the nickname 'Die Rote Ieufeln' - The Red Devils - from the Germans for the fierce fighting in Tunisia. (The term Red Devils does not come from the colour of the beret but from the fact that the Paras were always covered in dust, which in Tunisia is a a very distinct shade of red). Wartime casualties in Europe alone totalled 3092 killed and 5386 wounded after only three years of operations. The four day defence of Arnhem bridge immortalised 2 Para, but it was not to be one of only three of 18 bns to survive post-war disbandment.

The traditional airborne role in NATO was considered obsolete - with modern air defence weapons the chances of an airborne force flying through enemy lines are very slim. For this reason 3 TA Para bns are part of NATO's front line infantry forces with a specific commitment to the defence of West Germany and Denmark. In the meantime the regular battalions rotate between Northern Ireland and 5 Bde.

i need a guard unit. a big guy, modern age, unarmed, looking sort of like a bouncer. the attack should be a punch. as for the clothes, something simple is preferable, maybe just jeans and a white t-shirt. this is for myUrbanization mod. if someone could do this unit i'd really appreciate it.
 
I want bicycle infantry. It's machine gunner on 3-wheeled bicycle.

Need more units for western time:

- Ship-of-Line
I'm using Ironfrigate graphics for this right now but would like to see the real Ship-Of-Line. This was the true battleship of time of Sales as Frigates were more widely used in scouting and such.

- Corvette (Light frigate)
Very much like privateer but without those skull things. Very fast but lightly armed ship mainly used for scouting.

- Native American musketeer
Just like musketeer but with native american looks.

- Native American cavalry
Just like Mounted Warrior but with rifle instead of bow.

- Slave
Worker changed so it looks more like african slave.

- Wagon Settler
Just like on posted on this forum once but smaller size please!

- Cannons
More cannons than just the bombard cannon and the normal cannon. There were more than just those used from the middleages to first world war. Even slight changes to original cannon would appreciated.

Sorry for asking so many but at least I don't ask often!
 
Has anyone attempted to do a British Centurion tank? That would be an awesome tank to do. Built late in World War 2, it may never have seen action in that war, but served in later conflicts. It was also used by the Israelis who used it from 1947 into the 1990's, I think. If anyone's interested, I'll dig up some images.
 
OmniMower,

That would be excellent! Are you saying that you've already produced a 3d model? Or do you mean a plastic model?

I still have a plastic model that I made back in my teen years:) Oh so long ago...
 
A day or two? That would be fast!

You have no idea how long it would take me to produce a 3d model. We'd be on to Civ 4 before that would happen :)

Don't rush on my account. I'd rather you take your time and do a good job of it.
 
You don't like the Air Transport that's already been made?
 
It's not in the unit library (Lab Monkey, take note). It was created by BlueO, and posted by Moeniir, way back in Oct or Nov. It's bundled with the Attack Chopper. Here's the link:

After looking through that thread again, there may be a problem with CivFanatics version of the Air Transport. If so, you can also get it here:

One of the two will work, for sure. It's an awesome unit, too.
