Are we ever going to get them? And if so will it be sooner, later, nobody knows? I really want to create an empire with Ethiopia/Mutapa/Mali/Congo/Justabouteverynationonthecontinent, but their whole "50's movie tribal upgrading into an escaped slave" thing kinda turns me off to playing them. Plus I know that's basically the most requested thing alongside Asian ship/advisor packs, so SURELY it's at least on your guys' radar.

This is probably one of the more narrow-minded and ridiculous things I've heard on this forum.

The appearance of African units turns you off from building the empires you want in the game? Really? I know not whether you are inept or you choose to live in the past, but a more brunt and straight-forward person would say: get over it.

Character gfx packs are probably not at the top of the list for Paradox, who are currently developing four titles and still patching and fixing up all of them either after their release or before their release. I don't see, nor can I really pragmatically fathom, how such a small and minute detail like unit graphics really turns you off from playing an African country.

I'm sorry you don't see the game this way, but 1/4th of the game is controlling your units. You stare at them. For a long time. And the African unit models are literally the WORST representation in the game of any country or nationality.

I've been hoping for new African units since.... well since I first took a look at that region in game. They are just awful. Plus, and correct me if I'm wrong, but they don't even have a full four tiers of models. They have no tier 4 unit model.

Funny, I was just about to start a thread about this.

Regardless, yes a sub-Saharan African unit pack would be a great idea. With units for Ethiopia, Songhai, Mali, Kongo. Maybe also a arab/berber unit pack, with units for Morocco, Tunis, Hejaz and maybe also Mamluks.

Yes, watching your armies walking around barefoot is annoying. Just give them some boots!
Yeah, give them some sneakers and 4+ land maneuver.

But tbh I support this notion. I'm a big fan of the Unit Sprites and Africa is rather lacking. An African unit pack with Ivory Coast, Horn of Africa and North Africa models sounds cool.

Wonderful. I mean after a quick google search I found something like this:

Quite possibly the single greatest army uniforms I have ever seen.

Am I the only one who never zooms in close enough to see any unit models ever? They could be 3d or stick figures and it'd be the same to me.

They have a special team that makes unit GFX for CK2 & EU4 so I don't see why not.
I'd love em to give Africa the same care as they did to India. Heck looking at it I'd say India is the by far best region in the game in terms of amazing skins.
