Unit requests thread

Would someone be intrested in creating a Mammoth Tank based on the following model? I need a good modern tank for the Romans in the game. The models at the present do not reflect proper military prowess. This one is a statement... Do not mess with us!:king:
 
I second the idea of a B-36 Peacemaker as well as a PBY Catalina. Also that Mammoth Tank idea sounds good for a future tank. Must talk to MaxRiga if it ever comes out about its use.
 
Anyone want to try their hand on any of the following aircraft:

B-25 Mitchell (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-25_Mitchell)
B-26 Marauder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-26_Marauder)
P-61 Black Widow (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-61_Black_Widow)
Hawker Typhoon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawker_Typhoon)
Handley Halifax (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handley_Page_Halifax)
A-20 Havoc /Douglas Boston (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_Boston)


I need these aircraft for....ummmm....a possible scenario I am thinking of making :mischief:
 
Hey everyone,

I'm currently working on a mod with having each civ with 2 unique units and i need some skinning done because I'm still fairly new to modding. let alone skinning.

Here's a list of what I need with the original unit they replace:

Russian T-34 (tank)
France Gendarms (cavalry)
Greek Cataphract (horse archer)
Roman Ballista (catapults)
Spainish Treasure Galleon (galleon)
Indian Jungle War Elephant
Carthaginian War Elephant
German Vandal Warrior (macemen)
Egyptian Mamluks (knights)
Chinese Red Guard (infantry)
Viking Longboat (galley or trireme havent decided yet)
Mongolian Trebuchet
Japanese Zero Fighter (fighter)
Persian Immortal Infantry (spearman)
Arabia Bedouin Cavalry (horse archer)
English Privater (waiting for BTS to come out)
Maliense (dont have a unit yet)
Korean (dont have a unit yet)

That's all need right now, any help would be great. I'm sure some of these units have already been skinned, if so send me a private message with the link of the thread. If you would like to skin a unit for me, also send me a private message and we can work something out.

Thanks alot

I play 4 fun:cool:

Many of those have already been made. Check the Units section (do a search) or look through the Downloads Database.
 
I know there is a T-34 in MaxRiga Mod. I also know that there is a Japanese Zero Fighter somewhere in the database. I don't think it is just a reskin of the existing unit. Korean could be that multiple barrel canon unit out of C3C. I forget its name. Those are what I know about off the top of my head.
 
I can make skins - i am skilled with Photoshop
but if there arent screenshot its unpossible
on the otherside here so many threads i havent read all...

I will look if i can help you :
(Could anyone make a qizilbash unit for me?)
 
Is it Indian, Pakistani or Arabic as the Qizilbash unit certainly has that look about it? Certainly looks like it would be great as a flavour unit for the Archer...

Well since you asked...;)

The Qizilbash were radical shi'ite turkmen warriors, kind of like a cult possibly derived from the ismaili assassins of the crusades. They were elite warriors who served the Safavids (16th-17th centuries) up until Shah Abbas I disbanded them for their corruption. They were very powerful and undefeated until Sultan Selim of the Ottomans completely annihilated them at the battle of chaldiran with their superior guns and artillery.

They were called the Red Heads because of the red turbans which doesn't completely show in the picture.:p
 
I think I might try to take a crack at making a Qizilbash too. It may keep my mind off of finals for a while.
A question for you ohcrapitsnico about the Qizilbash, how do they fight? Are they archers? Horseman? Pikeman?
It’s hard to find a model with that overcoat though, but I think a reskinned Janissary with a new head might fit perhaps.

Thanks for the replies.:)

The qizilbash actually acted in all roles. They constituted the whole army of the early safavids. Any role you want to give them is fine.:)

Here are some more pictures:

As you can see they played many roles.
 
I want a technical. You know, one of those souped up civillian pickup trucks, with a gun mounted on the roof or in the bed. Two versions would be nice; a missile launcher version and a chain gun version, with bonuses against armored and infantry units, respectivey.
 
Yes, a technical sounds interesting and you could give it the ability to transport a certain number of infantry if the AI will recognize the Technical as an Attack Land Transport. I think they were introducing some Attack Land Transports in one of their mods for WWII so it might be possible to take some of that code in the BTS scenario and adapt it to creating a working Techincal...
 
I need a sapper unit. These guys go around cutting down trees, buildings forts, digging trenches, and blowing up enemy fortification. Basically it's a type of infantry that could pass off as European 1600's or 1700's era. Instead of a musket, it holds a lumberjack's axe and wears a leather apron. Can anyone do that?? Thanks!
 
A flame tank made out of the Sherman, basically replace the gun animation with a whooshing flame if possible... A Churchill Crocodile if possible which is basically the Churchill Crocodile able to spurt out flame... A German flame-tank if possible made out of the PzIV... Also some infantry units that carry flame-throwers would be cool. Thank-you if anyone is able to do this.
 
Watching on dragons from FfH it's possible.

I could try to make Crocodile - but not soon - it would need much time for researching "know how" - and in thin and next month i don't have time for learning new tricks in civ4
