    Default UPLOADED! new, old greek units

    Many play around with my stuff , why not playing a little with yours.........;O)
    I looked through the files of rtr6, spor and others, picked some here and there ..make them new skins. and create in max some new files from them.
    Mostly for greek, some carthage and right now create some new better looking scythian infantry from rtr6 eastern units.......it`s fun!


    i think the thrakians realy deserve some updates, if you study they pottery artwork closely.



    i allways loved those rtw tanks..... :O)

    GIMME!

    I really enjoy your work with Celts, and I've always wanted to see what you would do with other cultures. Have you ever done any Germans or falxmen?

    You are the reason I'm playing Gaul in Darthmod I would LOVE to see some of this stuff in the upcoming version.

    Somewhere i had read that no Spartan would wear his red mantle on the battlefield. Makes sense if you think about the fatal error to do it.
    Else they history would be very short, to short to find its place into our history books ;O)

    If you delete the phalanx option from a unit with nice spear and it has two weapons,
    they make pretty much use of they swords too and additional greek swordmans are no longer needed for the greeks in the game.
    I still use the pylos spartan as supreme greek fighting tank but use the above cas as additional unit
    The Royal Guard or Agema Basilikos.

    default pylos:

    type greek hoplite spartan
    category infantry
    class spearmen
    soldier greek_hoplite_spartan_pylos, 40, 0, 1.3
    attributes sea_faring, hide_forest, can_sap, very_hardy
    formation 1, 1, 2, 2, 5, square, phalanx
    stat_health 2, 0
    stat_pri 16, 4, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, piercing, spear, 25 ,1
    stat_pri_attr spear, spear_bonus_8
    stat_sec 12, 3, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, piercing, sword, 25 ,1
    stat_sec_attr no
    stat_pri_armour 3, 9, 5, leather
    stat_sec_armour 0, 0, flesh
    stat_heat 2
    stat_ground 2, 0, 0, 0
    stat_mental 14, disciplined, highly_trained


    my use of the other greek tanks:
    .............................................
    type greek royal guard
    dictionary greek_royal_guard ; Royal Guard Hoplites
    category infantry
    class spearmen
    voice_type Medium_1
    soldier greek_royal_guard, 40, 0, 1.3
    attributes sea_faring, hide_forest, can_sap, very_hardy
    formation 1, 1, 2, 2, 5, square
    stat_health 1, 0
    stat_pri 16, 4, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, piercing, spear, 25 ,1
    stat_pri_attr spear, spear_bonus_6
    stat_sec 12, 3, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, piercing, sword, 25 ,1
    stat_sec_attr no
    stat_pri_armour 7, 9, 5, metal
    stat_sec_armour 0, 0, flesh
    stat_heat 2
    stat_ground 2, 0, 0, 0
    stat_mental 14, disciplined, highly_trained
    stat_charge_dist 30
    stat_fire_delay 0
    stat_food 60, 300
    stat_cost 2, 690, 260, 120, 180, 690
    ownership greek_cities, macedon, seleucid, thrace

    this means no additional phalanx unit, no additional 2 health hero but tough greek elite hoplites!
    with the bonus 6 for the hoplite spear i save the bonus 8 for sarissa like long pike phalanx units, i think thats a nice idea for balance.

    Excellent work yet again, and congratulations reaching the 1000 posts barrier.

    But you really shouldn't double post so often...the moderators don't really like that

    Nice Skins Webbird,
    good to see you back in action.


    p.s If you don't know what to do next I know a few mods that could do with some help.

    Hi Webbird, good work.
    Can i get a request: why don't you make skins for Dark Fenrir's nice units, please.

    http://rtw.heavengames.com/downloads...hp?fileid=4045
    Here can you download his units. I think he made some very good hoplite models.

    The wonderful Jessica!

    Nice looking skins. I think you should try to make a historically accurate Spartan during the Persian wars, that is to give him a bronze cuirass (muscle or bell) instead of linothorax, a non-transverse crest (keep that for the king) and a different shield blazen, for they didn't use the lamtha on their shields until after this time period. Other than that, the mods look very nice. Keep up the good work.

    Ok Folks, here they are, my new variations of well known old models.
    Big thanks go to Hades, ATG, Caius Britannicus and the Rome Total Realism Team, for the permission to use part of they models!

    Included are:

    thracian agema_hypaspist ----the thracian armoured hoplite
    thracian_noble_lancer -------the thracian armoured noble cavalry
    greek_hoplite_sword ---for three factions
    greek_hoplite_spear ---for three factions
    greek_royal_guard ---for four factions
    greek_pezhetairo (skirmish infantry shortsword-spear)
    greek_agrianos (skirmish infantry shortsword)
    greek_officer ---for four factions to replace the default vanilla with great hoplon/sword

    of course with new textures and sprites and .......find it yourself and i hope you like it!

    Downloadlink:

    With the royal guard as hidden resource unit, (details in my stats) it seems to be pretty fair.
    The Spartan Tanks are still the ultimate greek warriors but the royal guards are not less hardy even with only one health point.
    The Non-phalanx hoplites and the addition of light skirmish-infantry should show the slowly changes of greek military tactics between 200bc - 168bc.
