May as well check a few more off the list.

Lemming (Unit) (Requires deathFrames: 14) (drawingRoutine: 4)
(Sprites are from the Amiga version of the game, the unit turned out funnier than I thought it would be.)

I fiddled around a little with the LOBO(Loboid?) to see if there's some potential for a... dumber Muton? (close combat oriented), Regen gimmick? A terror unit? Bodyguard for the ethereals? Take your pick.
W/Shaggy mane
Without shaggy mane

Loboid, I like the sound of that.   

A Muton variant with regenerating HP would definitely make taking it down on the same turn as engaged a priority.

Shaggy version is probably the more distinct of the two, but if it is to be a "dumber Muton" then perhaps without hair is better to match the other Muton's look?

My 5 cents: celatid cloning effect for use as hit animation:

My 5 cents: celatid cloning effect for use as hit animation:

If the animation is displayed where a Celatid's acid impacts perhaps the purple sections should be replaced with green to be more visually related to the attack?


Then again, the original purple looks more organic which better suggests the Celatid's cloning process...


If you don't mind I'd like to make use of your smoke_celatid.png in a mod I'm working on.

The transition from the initial orb to the full sized lifeform is really fluid.

Here is another unit created from the concept art.

It should be able to handle using movementType: 1 (Flying), but please use it however you wish.

This unit was constructed with fragments of images from Bladum's "Bladum Mod".

Hey the Martian, I'm finishing up work on a new alien but I'm a little lacking in the terror unit department, figured I´d reuse some of the existing ones like the Silacoid but that´s a little boring. Can I use the Glowing Silacoid/Wormwood you posted earlier? I got some ideas.

[The Martian]

I'll look forward to seeing what you are cooking up.

You are welcome to make use of them.

I've put together the pack that includes them, you can find them in the mod pack I put up here:

I increased the contrast a little on their battlesprite, and they're nasty little guys in battle.

Genuinely glad that you guys liked it
