Elvis is BACK in the building, or at least in the PTW/units folder.



Nice touch, Firaxis.

I noticed that modern worker animation in there, and I have not gotten up to the modern ages in PTW yet, so I wonder, did they change it?

It's just a configuration file; same with the F-15, so it probably fixes some animations or something.

Using the Editor you can get him to do whatever you want him to do.
Settler? Tank? Nuke?

In the standard game: no, I don't think he does anything.

Miriya13 at CFC found the trigger for the Elvis unit, it will appear on Jan 8th 2003 (the King's B-day!).

If you set your PC date ahead, and load a regicide game, you will get The King unit for your king.
