At the request of Hank and Notso I have attempted to create several 3D icons for the naval
units for use in their FTW battles. I added CSA units for ironclads, gunboats, wooden screw steamers and wooden
side wheelers by taking the original icons and modifying the colors slightly. I also added a river obstruction icon
that looks like a couple of logs chained together. Since units cannot enter the same hex as enemy naval units these
can be used to block the river lanes until they are destroyed by gunfire.
To use the River Obstruction unit all you need to do is create a unit like this
CONFEDERATE G 1 6 w 120 10 River Obstruction
Then when putting it in place in the scenario editor it must be marked Emplaced so it cannot be moved.
You need to create one unit for each obstacle you want in the OOB file.
Also you must use the FTW PDT with the w weapon set for no range so it cannot fire. Then when fired upon the river obstruction
will be treated like any other gunboat and it's strength in the OOB will determine how many gun hits it takes to destroy it.
These files are compatible with any of the other Corinth OOB's since I added the new units to
the bottom of the file. You need to extract them to the Corinth game Map folder where they will overwrite the original
files so you might want to save them somewhere. I will however be adding the original files to my Corinth Original
Files Page on this site.
Those of you using these will also want to download the latest version of the Corinth units.bmp
on this site since it has additional pictures for the new naval units. Once again these are compatable with the original
game as I added the new pictures to the bottom of the file by increasing its size.
