Velaryon Spear Archer (Missile unit w/ Spear)

Description
This is the continuation of my journey to create unique units to the game. This unit is hybrid of a tier 2 spearmen and a tier 1 archer. Tier 2+1 = 3, for this reason, they are tier 3. (I did the math) That being said, they shouldn't be put head to head with other tier 3 spearman but they will hold their own in battle. While not completely immune they can wreck cavalry charges; it is gratifying to fire a volley of arrows at a cav charge then switch to spears right before impact.

-It is recommended to go to Setting > Game Settings and un-check alliance coloring. This will allow for units to be colored by faction and not the ugly Yellow or Red during battles.

Overview;
-Balanced around AoC with Radious and Base game in mind. Because of this they are strongest in Base, normal in AoC, and normal but learning to stronger in Radious.
-Steady Advance (Use this before a cav charge for a boost.)
-They inherit the slow speed of spear units, so they are the same speed as a medium armor spear unit.
-Custom Officer and Bannerman
-Average Melee Attack and Melee Defense, this is standard for AoC spearmen.
-Decent Armor as positive of their slower speeds
-Compatible with Radious, AoC, and other conversion mods.

How to recruit;
-Recruitable by most non-african continent, non-nomadic and non-viking factions.
-See screenshot for buildings and factions.


*** If you know how to make pretty unit cards that look like AoC unit cards, let me know. I am willing to trade mod work for a unit card for this unit ***


If you have a cool idea for a unit let me know, I am looking for new ideas. While I do not know enough to make new 3D models I can use existing models to make new units. Let me know if you have a cool idea!

Hi Velar, can i use your unit in my westeros campaign mod?

nice one. as a suggestion, i think the germanics miss a medium/heavy axe which is quite similar to the slavic ones

Really nice looking unit, and the versatility and survivabilitywill definitely be helpful. Can't wait to try it out. Thanks a bunch for your work. I'll be sure to check out your other mods, as well.

Really cool. I haven't had the chance to try it out yet. The Viking factions need a unit like this. Their raiders used bows and melee weapons. Their fighters were their skirmishers in some instances. Any chance of making a unit for them?
