	New aircraft: Rockwell B-1B Lancer (v1.1) Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Well, the time of miracles is not over I guess. I released the Lancer about 8 months ago and thought I'd never update it.
I am on vacation now and I started to tweak the unit out of sheer boredom and now it has reached V1.1 and I consider this a final release.

I will edit this thread a bit now with new screenshots and stuffs. The first version was downloaded 667 times before this update.

The updated package contains everything needed.

	Suffering from ads?

shammy, that looks really nice. I think I will try it out. What stats are you thinking of putting on it?

no clue on the stats, sorry.. I was hoping people would suggest something acceptable

theoretically however.. it should be more powerful than stealth bomber for example.. b-1b can carry at least twice the payload of the b-2 spirit.. go figure..

Looks good, I'll be sure to work it in to my game at some point.

Very nice.... one suggestion, tho: Perhaps the default animation should have the wings un-swept? It'd be a bit more realistic...

	wings Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

heh.. thats how i did it originally, but i noticed the unit animation thingy wont allow it.. kinda
when you select a bombing run for example.. the unit seems to repeat the pattern.. frame1,2,3,4,etc and then it shows default frame at the end (or perhaps it starts with it? i dont know), so having a default frame looking different than the bombing run frames makes the bombing run look very silly.. it keeps changing the wing positions all the time

	B1 vs B2 Full PM-box? Change here!

The B1 was made to replace the aging B-52. The B-2 was designed to replace the B-52's roll of carrying nuclear weapons into countries like China and Russia, where the B-52 was vulnerable to anti-aircraft missiles and fighters. You don't need to carry 30 tons of weapons, just 6 1 megaton weapons which weigh about a ton a piece.

Gee I didn't know that, I thought a 1 megaton bomb weighed 2000 pounds.

	Update bump Enter the AD-FREE zone

The Lancer was updated to v1.1

It has been tested in Civ3 1.29f and PTW1.14f.
The build icon seems to be a bit high on standard Civ3 (doesnt bother much really), but on PTW it is perfect, no clue what causes this.

Thank you for this, it's a real masterpiece. We are using this unit for the World 2003 scenario (Play The Real World), as both the B1-B Lancer and Tu-160 Blackjack. The latter should be white, but I dont think anyone will complain

Might I use this for my Cold War scenario? It is a real beauty.

Search around the forum, there are tutorials about adding new units. Its totally easy.. only takes a few minutes.

Im sure all custom units you see here will work with any version of PTW.

Heheehee man I was absolutely stunned to get email notification from apolyton. My last login was.. uhmm.. in 2003?

This unit is over three years old so im kinda embarrassed the thread got bumped But hey.. im glad someone liked it. Im pretty sure however that there are much much much better units available nowdays that are done with 3D tools.

Lets allow this thread to finally sink into oblivion..
