Ok this is just thoughts, i thought that Modded ctp2 had all the units it ever needed but now with the possibility of converting them from Civ3 it just boggles me.
Nice additional units for CtP2
[COLOR=redZeppelin
I think zeppelin, blimp, montgolfiere or whatever you want to call it is a good idea, as a very weak and slow (slow as in moves say 2 squares at a time or whatever) unit that can only attack ground units possibly a UU? However it will be the first flying unit available and will be around way before the other air units. This will make it a very handy unit of its time [/COLOR] *possibly historically incorrect and unrealistic
Alpine Troops
Would be nice to have Alpine Troops like Civ2 (are they in civ3 i cant remeber) they would be really good movement for snow terrain and really good attack and defence and on other terrain they are pretty crap or tottaly crap as this makes sense (hence the name alpine troops) they could be the ultimate infantry unit on snow terrain.
Fanatic
Like in Civ2 unique to a fundementalist government or whatever may apply. This would be a cool unit (i mean Theocracy get a unit, facism get a unit why not Fundamentalism?)
Partisan
I mean there is a partisan code which is class but no specific partisan unit. MM2 (Medieval Mod 2) uses the old CtP1 spy sprite which is kinda undestandable as it acts like a spy. But what im talking about is one that attacks lets say a animated sprite version of the Civ2 partisan
Camel Rider
With Pedrunns trade system http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...threadid=62425 this would be a great unit. If there where a camel trade good (as in Martin's GoodMod) As throughout history there have been civilizations that have used alternatives to horses as in there particular part of the world they did not have horses. Camel riders would be perfect they would require the camel trade good (as horse units will need the horse trade good) and the sprite could be a converted Age of Empires 2 unit (if this would look good) either way there should be a camel rider unit and maybe other camel units (camel bowman or whatever) that should be included.
Bi-Plane
There is no bi-plane in ctp2, the fact that these where the first planes and single winged planes where at one time thought impossible to work. I think these would be rather important. Either as an early spy plane (could fly low out of radar too) or probably better as an early attack plane. Anyone remember that old beta screenie of Civ3 (this was when i was interested in that crap, before it came out) there was a yellow bi-plane in one of the shots (strangly there where AA TI's too) anyway in the final there wasnt any bi-planes in civ3 either to the best of my knowledge.... strange
Early tank
There are no early tanks in ctp2, as soon as you get the technology to build tanks your instantly in 70's technology with what looks to be an abrams tank.... This isnt right, progression is what we need. What about the very first tanks (ok not the armoured passenger car thingies) the ones just after that. With the tracks going all the way around the chasis. I think these would be very good in ctp2.
Can anyone think of anymore to add to this list ? Units they would like to see? Units you thought should have been in the game anyway? Units that you think should be upgraded versions of the current eg. Catapult > Cannon > Artillery etc.
