How to make a unit with just one man in it,like Sauron it TATW? (it's also in Aristeia TW for RTW - the heroes are individual)

You posted it in the wrong category, your question goes in the unit making part of the workshop

Sauron is made some seige-elephant, don't know much more as I'm no modeller

Unfortunatelly it is not possible.

It's not just possible, they've already done it in Third Age Total war.

And the Balrog.

OP? What is it?

**lolIsuck** · January 06, 2012, 02:29 PM

It is possible, it just can't be a general

**attyla** · January 06, 2012, 03:18 PM

If i remember it well the minimum number of soldiers in one unit is 4.

It either refers to the first post of a thread or to the guy who posted it

didn't knot - thanx :p

Maybe you should ask in their forum? if they made a unit like that I'd imagine they know how to do it, or just send a pm to one of the developers.

It's possible because it's an elephant unit. A normal unit can't be less than 2 men (on small unit scale)

**KovacDerSchmied** · January 08, 2012, 03:02 AM

I must make one!

**VINC.XXIII** · February 01, 2012, 04:27 AM

Sound to be a good way for medieval kings, do it is possible to put after this one-man unit as common officer for other troops of cavalry(not an elephant one)??

**lolIsuck** · February 01, 2012, 02:27 PM

Well, it has to be an elephant in name and it can't be a general or it'll replentish to 3 or 4 I thought.

**Anakarsis** · February 01, 2012, 02:34 PM

But apparently it is not possible to put a horse instead of the elephant thus making a 1-man unit, so it is a poor option for a medieval king (unless you want to make him on foot)

**lolIsuck** · February 01, 2012, 02:36 PM

Well, I think it's possible, it would just look weird having a horse throwing everyone in the air while turning his ass.

**VINC.XXIII** · February 01, 2012, 06:39 PM

yes the goal being to have a king with a unic horse...in several european courts, the royal heraldries were reserved to kings. Its only happend in Total War to see lot of knights wearing the Plantagenet Lions or French Lilies on their horse dresses.
