Anybody miss fantasy units?

[synthesis]

Of course I was all for DBH's pragmatic approach to units when I first discovered XGM, but lately I've been poking around text files and I stumbled upon the remnants of vanilla units. Then I thought, I sometimes miss the absurd chaos of rabid dogs engulfing my enemies.

Just for fun: if you could add a fantasy unit to XGM that would make DBH cry, what would it be?

Maybe battlefield ninjas could be added and they could face off against Cilician pirates.

Isn't that still in as Woad Warriors or something?

Yep, we still have head-chucky geezers, just in a slightly different form. The heads no longer do much damage, but the unit does demoralize the enemy.

Why stop there? Flaming slaves! It's doable, right?

Agree. Flaming pigs for me. Though, I never used them in compaigns. Played a custom battle once: full-stack army of elephants against full-stack army of pigs. Guess who won?

Er..you won

No, I and my pigs lost. Only after I add a light cavalry unit as general and 3 archer units, I could turn things around. Pigs can charge but once, you know

P.S. Nobody had shevrons, elephants were not armored.

PP.S. Invisible elephant or flaming pigs units sounds good to me.

I was thinking about "semihistorical" Scythian "scalp hunters" - for it was from them what was repeated in "American conquest". I havent seen any unit connected with that in RTW mods.
