What Civ 2 unit would you most like to see return in PTW?
Personally, I would most like to see Crusader units return.

Isn't the howitzer represented by radar artillery in Civ3? And the engineer was a missing unit in Civ3.
I would like to see an elephant usable by all of the civs. I, also, wouldn't mind seeing a dragoon unit that would replace cavalry, and then have cavalry come in the Industrial age (or should it be vice versa for realism?). The engineer and partisan unit would be nice too have as well.However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N. -
Alpine troops, or some other offensive unit that treats all terrain as roads.Comment

Where's the "other" option? I don't want to see any of those return, but I would like to see new units...So I choose the bottom option, since that was the option which was closest on what I wanted...This space is empty... or is it?Comment

I'd like to see partisans make a comeback. However, with alterations...
- When a partisan is in jungle, forest, hill or mountain squares, they should be able to hide from sight.
- Attack bonus when attacking from said 'cover' squares. Greater defensive bonus when being attacked on these squares.
- The number of partisan units that appear outside a newly conquered city should be proportional to the number of citizens that turn into resistors."Corporation, n, An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility." -- Ambrose Bierce
"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both." -- Benjamin Franklin

I'm glad that the alpine troops are not in Civ 3 and certainly don't want them to make a comeback. What a ridiculous unit!Let us be lazy in everything, except in loving and drinking, except in being lazy – LessingComment

Now wait a minute. Alpine troops were great for blazing through difficult terrain quickly to attack enemy troops. I miss this unit and used it a lot in civ2.Originally posted by nostromo

The unit however that I'd like to see make a comeback is the partisan. The fact that he treated all tiles as roads and could ignore ZOC (I know this is not present in Civ3) was deadly. The partisan, like the explorer in Civ3, was used to run into enemy territory and pillage galore! The advantage the partisan has over the explorer is that he can also attack and defend.

partisan. my friend suggested that the current system of "resistance" could be supplimented by adding the classic partisans outside of the city, and lowering the # of resisting citizens in the city itself."I've lived too long with pain. I won't know who I am without it. We have to leave this place, I am almost happy here."

PARTISANS!!! Not because of any gameplay reasons. Just because they were the coolest kick ass unit ever to be in a civ game.Comment

Yes, they were usefull. But the unit itself looked silly. That fellow could go anywhere with his skis, even in deserts!Originally posted by Haupt. Dietrich

I'll bet that they are going to add a "Partisan" or "Resistance" unit to the PTW WW2 unit set. If you remeber, there was a unit which was shown on a pre-release pict. It looked like factory worker with a gun. He had a red sweatshirt and a workers cap. Everyone thought at first that he was the new partisan unit. He obviously did not make the cut. I think that he is going to be used as a partisan unit in PTW. i'll also bet that many of the armored/motorized units of this screen shot are going to be used in PTW."Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment
