Unit requests thread

Actually... no. They didn't have octagon wheels. I was talking about the unit, not the picture, you see

Ha! You're right! I had not noticed. There were a number of goofy things done in the 19th century, but I'm pretty sure octagon wheels were not one of them!

Does anyone have a decent Roman Archer (maybe like a Praetorian with a bow) and a Roman ballista? Maybe a Druzhina for Russia as well? Just need something to work with in the near Future

 

[Baldyr]

(never mind)

Seems i've been fast with merging -> Moderator Action: Threads merged .

For a ballista see here.

Well, this is my first post even though I have played civilization since #1 (haven't tried #5 yet) went through all of 2, test of Time, and 3 and have now been modding privately for about a year on Civ 4 BTS. I suck at unit graphics so I need units for some new civilizations I'm making for my scenario: Great Britain. I'm making several different Celtic Kingdoms, Irish Kingdoms, The Saxons, The Jutes and The Angles. For the Normans, I haven't figured out what should be their unique unit(s).
I need this: (Celtic Spearman). The only difference is that the shield is more rectangular and larger like the Roman shields so that they can lock together and form a shield wall.
I also need war dogs. If you read up on the tactics used between the Celts and the Saxons, you'll understand why. They will be used by the Saxons and the Celts.

Thankyou!

I was hoping someone had a unit that was like a Dromon.

I found one in the Downloads Database, but it was designed as a Mod, and I was planning on using it in one of my works (I would give credit, of course ).

And doesn't matter if it's in a mod or not.
If someone uploaded the unit, then it's meant to be used.
Just give proper credit for the creator if you use it.

 

[j_mie6]

it was modular! easily converted, I have it in my mod. just download it and figure out how to use it

I searched this thread and found out that someone had mentioned a highwayman unit back in 2007. I didn't find any answer to his question, though.

I would appreciate if someone could make this unit for me. I'm totally blank as far as graphics and Civ4 is concerned. I can't even make a flag. In order to include the unit in my own mod I would only need the graphics, really. I could make the xml-changes myself (I think).

I would like to have a Dick Turpin kind of graphic. I saw one painting on wikipedia, but there may be better representations of highwaymen out there...

The unitclass to make it from is the Horse Archer, and here are my suggestion to changes from the main unit:

Spoiler :

(Highwayman/Horse Archer)
<DefaultUnitAI> (UNITAI_PILLAGE/UNITAI_ATTACK)
<bRivalTerritory> (1/0)
<bMilitaryHappiness> (0/1)
<bMilitaryProduction> (0/1)
<bFirstStrikeImmune> (0/1)
<bIgnoreTerrainCost> (1/0)
<bHiddenNationality> (1/0)
<bAlwaysHostile> (1/0)
<UnitClassUpgrades> (None/Knight)
<FlankingStrike> (None/Cat&Treb)
<UnitAIs> (Pillage/Attack&Pillage)
<TechTypes> (None/Tech_Archery)
<iMoves> (3/2)
<bNoRevealMap> (1/0)
<iCombat> (5/6)
<iWithdrawalProb> (10/20)
<iCollateralDamageMaxUnits> (0/6)
<UnitClassAttackMods> (None/Catapult at 50)
<iCultureGarrison> (0/5)
<iAsset> (1/2)
<iPower> (0/6)
<FreePromotions> (Mobility&Sentry/None)

I would like a nice Dick Turpinesque-looking unit.

If anyone feel the calling to make this I would be happy.

This unit, called a Highwayman, would be the Privateer of the countryside. I have always wanted a unit like this. However, I do want this one to be unable to be upgraded to other units. I have always thought it odd that a Privateer suddenly reports to the authorities and takes on a new job as a Destroyer...



Yours Sincerely

I think it would be good if someone could convert some of the new Civ V units to Civ IV for us as there are some excellent looking new units there we could be using.

Can somebody please fix the UU of this module. (Remove the extra lance) It's needed in RFCE. Thanks in advance.

 

[SaibotLieh]

I wonder if someone could take the body, head and sheild of the Pikeman in this file and put it on the animations and weapons of the maceman in the same pack (which uses the Dog Soldier as base and animations). I will use it as a flovro unit for south african civs, and as the maceman unit in there is already busy as UU for and upcoming Zimbabwe civ, I need something to replace it. Hope someone is willing to help me with my small request

Here you go.

What extra lance do you mean? At least in my download the knight has only one lance.

I mean this extra lance.

 

[Cybah]

why extra, where is the other one?

 

[AbsintheRed]

^You see it in the picture. Have one more look.

Yep, there is a lance floating near the knight

 

[SaibotLieh]

I mean this extra lance.

There is only one lance in the current download. Must have been fixed in the meantime. Here is the nif file of the knight.

 

[merijn_v1]

I still have the extra lance. I downloaded it again, and it didn't work.

Are you using the right animation ?
