A list of 3rd party, myth-themed units! - my grand compilation-under-construction

[Welly]

First... PLUGINS AND OTHER AREAS THIS LIST DOES NOT COVER YET:
-- Jinn (and some other Vista units?)-- besides the Butterfly (by Fisj) and Sheep (by Fisj. Fetchball, etc)
-- Carlinho's maps and plugs have MANY new units (Isle of Storms, Greeks, et. al.)
-- pirates of the caribbean (I know it has a monkey...)
-- Oogabooga's various altered Bungie sprites

Second... things this list will NEVER cover:
-- WWII units
-- space themed units
-- Lego units
-- Wild West units
-- other themes, fantastic or not, that wouldn't fit with Myth units

Remember, this list is only meant to cover new units that are consistent with the Myth universe.

That's all I have. It took quite awhile to confirm all these, so please contribute to the effort and the list by replying here with submissions that I may have missed. No unit is too obscure! If you'd like to use this list as a starting point to make the larger, all-inclusive new unit list, be my guest. But again, please reply with any new unit that belongs here. Thanks in advance!

[A-Red]

Sweet!

[William Wallet]

Good work Welly!
I nearly shat my pants when I saw my name on that actually... hahah, wasn't expecting it.

[ChrisP]

Lich King
Marilith
Beholder
Khellek Pyromancer
Dragon

These are all by Khellek.

[TarousZars]

Don't forget Perrin Aybara by Road.
http://mythaddict.atvcowboy.com/mapmaking_Resources.php?resource_id=1

[Pyro]

Now, if there only was a place to see a screenshot of the units and then it would be complete. Some of them sound interesting to use.

[Welly]

Don't forget Perrin Aybara by Road.

(Thanks for that one Tarous, that's exactly the kind of input I need. anything else by Pyro I missed?)

Pyro: which unit(s) are you interested in? I'm pretty sure every one of them is in the Magma Tain or other archive.

The only one which isn't there that I can remember is the Female Berserks, which were TFL zerks with edited mugshots, faces, and breasts added to all the sequences (except hard death head I think). But they're so damn hideous, not sure why you would ever need em. Drop me a mail if you want a screen.

[A-Red]

It would also be nice to have a running list of which units are available for the general mapmaking community to use. Obviously the lost bungie units and chimera ones can be used, and anything found here. Also, I have the original readme for the Zorg, and I can confirm that its creator gave permission. I can't speak for any of the others.

Also, it might be worth including certain Bungie collections that have been put through Amber so that it is possible to change the colors of certain areas that were constant in the original collections. For example, Lichen Unto Death includes the General, a version of Alric that allows you to change the color of his armor.

A-Red

[Pyro]

I don't know if you got my PM, Welly, but so far my Maeldun unit is the only one I have... and its recent... and I'm still working on it. The ones that sound interesting are the ones that I could use for some Avatara of the Nine. And the ones that sound like unique characters that would be suited for a bad guy. But nothing specific for now... first I must finish my unit.

[Welly]

Thanks Pyro

so far, here are the additions & changes to the List that I've accumulated:

A) Additions
1. Perrin Aybara: Two Rivers General (by Road for Tarous Zars' Emonds Field)
2. Orc Axe & Orc Archer (Baldur's Gate, Ambered by Tarous Zars)
[what is baldur's gate? Tarous, any other units or info?]

B) according to A-red's idea: a new category of Bungie units w/ Permutations added or major palette changes-
1. General (Lichen Unto Death) color-alterable Alric
2. White Wolf (Homeland) from Creation

C) Reorganized magma area using ChrisP's clarification, by creator name.

Also, a question for Magma members: there is a screenshot of khellek pyro, ?????????, Beholder, Marilith, and the Lich King, that I probably found from the uDogs hotline server. The underlined character was pitch black humanoid with 3 toes, a silver breastplate, silver armor on his arms, somewhat thick thighs, and an arm that is a blade, or he just has a very small sword hand. Who is this? What can I know about it? he looks kick ass!

Baldur's Gate is not a Myth plugin, it's a different game.

The unit is probably from Laws of Evil. I hear they have a lot more units than the ones used in Mazz V.

Also, I haven't been able to find SpiderLordsv1.0, Orleans, or the Tremor Cannon on the udogs hotline. Anybody know where they are?

[Zeph]

I couldnt find Dreamseeds and Woods out Back.

I might have Tremor cannon on my old mac A-Red

[Baak]

I've posted the original Tremor Cannons .sit file on the OoH site here:
Dwarf Tremor Cannons v2.0

I suggest checking Vinylrake's excellent Myth Map Atlas as a first stop for other stuff. It's helped me many times to find something obscure.


Welly: Excellent job, Mate! One thing I request though: I received permission from Soma to extract and tweak his excellent Trebuchet unit from the Grilling Grounds "Siege" map.

After a lot of work and testing with the rest of the OoH, I released it as a stand-alone unit conversion plugin that allows you to selectively replace various units on any map (some 400+ different units in total). It's been fairly popular (86 d/l's after two and a half months), and I wouldn't want to see multiple versions of this floating around causing chaos and confusion. :;):

It's on the OoH Downloads page for those who are interested (I recommend just using the "Trebuchets (Dorfs)" plugin to start with, which will substitute all kinds of Dorfs with the Trebuchet unit - it's extremely fun - we've played almost 200 games using Trebs and love 'em!)


I've got a copy of Dreamseedz but alas don't have access to broadband at the moment and likely won't for a little while. Man, we really need some kind of major plugin archive, don't we?

[A-Red]

I couldnt find Dreamseeds and Woods out Back.

Woods Out Back is on this site. The one you're on right now. Go to the downloads section.

Dreamseedz is in a couple of obscure places on udogs (somebody's uploads folder I think). I can't point you to the exact spot right now.

[Floyd is Pink]

where can i get mormith's slay it isnt so, the ghol anarchist, and wod'asini's units? (the watcher, the pirate of leix (i swear i didnt see it in tgw beta) and the 2 orleans units (i remember beta testing the jt. joans archers way back in the day and i want to see what it came out to be))
