Edit. Lighter.

Could you make a little lower helmet with a diagonally shifted ring?
And a little buffer - they were melee too.
Like in this example:

@Endru1241 How's this looking?

Wat about a transformation image for firing with guns, we are thinking of replacing gun atk spell with transformation spell

[Badnorth]

Endru Planned that? I thought guns like those were not existing here?

[godOfKings]

Did u misunderstand something? I meant an image of the strelet aiming with his handgun while using the halberd as a stand, we thought about giving some hybrid units like strelet, a transformation spell with 0 action and 1 turn cooldown (so it cant immediately transform back after using spell) instead of direct atk spell, so that the drawbacks of gunners like miss chance can b implemented where right now strelets gun spell has 100% acc even against 6 speed light cav giving it better advantage over actual handgunners

[Badnorth]

I actually meant those Gun types. Strelets from google images are holding a Rifle of some sort. While using the Halberd as a stand.

Would it still need it while only holding a Handgonne in AoS ? Image i mean? I was asking because i am curious if i have to remove the handgonne and do the rifle instead in the Transformed image.

Nope - no muskets yet.
With Streltsy unit we are making an imaginative assumption, that such unit could be created few centuries earlier (e.g. in case Russia would be created earlier) when muskets didn't exists yet.
It's the same as with Winged Hussar - if Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth would come to power earlier such unit would probably exists earlier as well.
Technology allowed that in both cases.
Only strong and wealthy enough country had to invest into organization, trainings, equipment development (and in case of Hussaria - at least tens of years into horse breeding).
Only nobody thought about it being worth before (or didn't have capabilities to pull it off).

Unlike muskets.
Those needed specific level of chemistry and metallurgy, which happened in coming centuries.

Also, I have completely forgotten about comparing it to other units.

It is a little too high.

I have removed 2 lines of pixels to get better size for AoS.

GoK means idea about splitting Streltsy unit into two transformations, stances for stated reasons.
Something like that:

Sorry. Height Problem..

Can't really shake off this one habit of making unit sprites tall.

Oh, i see. I thought we were also going to change it's handgonne to a musket. Because i didn't see any images in google of a strelet having a handgonne. Or i am just blind.

FYI - I split image according to my earlier mention.
