***Unit Request Thread***

[Kenric af Grashen]

this will hopefully be my last post on this subject. sorry to anyone else for the inconvenience.

If your doing something else for now there is absolutely no pressure to make this unit - reloads gun- so if your tied up with your own projects don't let this get in your way.

by the way i like all your other sea units they're just so life like.

I'd really like a U2 spyplane -

something that has only a recon mission but double the range?
this would make my day -er- my game

Hello,
I'm sorry I don't know whether these have already been asked, but for the MOD I'm working on, I need:
- squelettons
- zombies
- mounted dragons
+ by spearman
+ by wizard
- undead dragon
- flying ships (small, medium, large)
- flying city

Do anybody wish to draw some of them?

Have a nice play, anyway.

I had planned to do a skeletal dragon but pushed it to the bottom of my list because of a few problems... It's still in the works though. Someone could do a copy and paste job on one of my other dragons to add someone to it... If not I may do it myself at some point.

Ok guys I really thinking about to make this LotR mod. Im glad that lot of people wanna help too.!


We really need these units for a proper LotR scenario/mod:

-Ents [It would be good to have at least 2 slightly different anims]
-Trolls: Snow Troll, Cave Troll, Stone Troll, Hill ^ Mountain Troll [Color conversions???]
-Olog-hai
-Goblins & Hobgoblins [At least 2 different units]
-Wolfrider
-Hobbits [At least 3 different units]
-Giants [At least 2 slightly different units - Slightly different Stone Giant for example]
-Ogres

-Werewolves [less important]
-Barrow Wights [less important]


I know that this is hella lot of work, but damn sooner or later we will have these units!


Regards,
Balrog

I think some of those units ISN'T really needed;

I don't remember any snow trolls from the books. The appendices to lotr only talks about stone trolls and olog-hai, no others.

Goblins and orcs are the same thing.

There are some giants in "the hobbit", but thats more of a fairy tale, not needed for a lotr scenario.

Ogres is another name for olog-hai.

I agree that barrow wights is less important to a lotr scenario, but would be fun to have in some other fantasy scenario.

Werewolves? Git the hell outta here!

Se, I'm helping, I just cut the wish list by half!

 

[Kinboat]

I have a worgrider on my list... Did they look like hyenas (in the movie) to anyone else?

 

[Mephansteras]

Very much so, to me.

As for cutting the list down, while mrtn's right about many of those not being useful for LOTR, they WOULD be very useful for other fantasy mods. And there are going to be LOTS of those, so I say we should still leave them in the queue.

Also, somewhat related to the fantasy units, I would love to see Industrial and Modern, even Future, units for Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, and other such races. After all, we do have leaderheads either made or in the works for those races, and it would be great to have them be viable Civs for all the eras without losing their uniqueness. After all, an Orc civ that has all that great color and personality in the ancient and medieval eras and then loses it once you get to the industrial era wouldn't be anywhere near as fun to have around.

 

[Balrog]

Well all of those races are part of Tolkien's world, but I do agree, that there are more important units to make:

I say, Troll, Ogre, Wolfrider and Goblin are the most important units for now.

Unit Request: Clubman x2

Since the scaling up of the AOE/AOK units seems to be in poor taste, I thought I would put out a legitimate request for a Clubman unit.

Something along the lines of the stock warrior would be fine, but I would ask that he be given a bit more clothing to cover his back, possibly a deerskin pelt and simple cap. Also, some deerskin pants for the poor devil would be great.

A simple wood club would work, possibly embellished with some stone edging like polished basalt, or white chert/flint (something to show up well). I am trying to create a more realistic progression of implement types in my mod. Any ideas welcome.

 

[Clam I Am]

ok now this is really weird, but it would be hilarious in civ 3. The US navy developed a project called Sea Shadow for some reason, and it's this really funny looking surface boat. There's only one in existence. Here's a picture:

Hello, master of 3D art. I have a unit request: could someone come up with a bulldozer? We've got worker units in the modern age, but somehow, only one guy in a pair of overalls doing all the heavy construction around our cities (and the mu, while neat, is more like a pothole road crew). I thinking of some heavy construction/mining equipment, something, perhaps, like this:

[dust_rat]

Have anyone done any WWI tanks?, or rather the WWI tank. Y'now that one with treads going up and around it?

I can think of three uses for it, a ordinary add to the tech tree (obviously), as a end-of-the-lane tech for my dwarfs in a fantasyMod and in a 40K mod (or at least 40K-ish).

I quite new to this and is still learning, and will perhaps never be proficient enough with the graphical tools.

 

[Kinboat]

I've done three different WW1 era tanks and one armoured car... I think you're thinking of the British MK1 (or 2,3,4,5) tanks... which all looked pretty much the same, that is one of those I made. Look on the first page of the units library and it should tell you what page to look on.

 

[Kindred72]

There's a Beautiful Ent model for poser that i found for sale on the web, but i'm not about to spend 30 bucks for it for just this use.

 

[Ozymandias]

I'd like to see a separate tech line for rotary aircraft:

biplane - AUTOGYRO - transport chopper - attack chopper - Osprey

Autogyro is a hybrid fixed / rotary wing craft. Here's one the Germans fielded in WW2:

-Oz

 

[Constantine]

I'd like to request a WW2 era HAlf track that could hold infantry and unload them to fight. The reason iam asing for this because i did a serach for half tracks and no one had this. IS this possible?
