Any chance of a similar gadget for Vista? Or do I have to write it myself?

Rout!

Loving the elephant textures for some reason. Sweet screenie. Keep up the good work.

Excellent reading material. This is one heck of an article, Shogun!

Wicked. Definitely worth staying up to finish that one mate.

egel. Age 18. If you need my real name just to enter me in the raffle, please tell me, and I'll oblige. And I hope they ship to N.Z...
EDIT: Since Mythos decided to give me grief over this, ****, age 18.

Awesome concept man.

Excellent work. I look forward to the next one.

Gotta love the shield!

I'd love to help, and love to learn how as well. I have lots of spare time in the next 6 months, have some photoshop skills (CS2) and have been teaching my self how to use blender. Also I pick up things very fast and can RM script on a basic level for AoE3, but I don't know your Random Map scripts are anything remotely like theirs.

I like the screenshot from a purely aesthetic point of view.

Nice Cobra! PR sounds like a good idea to me.

It's not an invention of mine:
I wasn't trying to imply that you did. Only that I'm sure Portuguese Historians prefer that POV, where as Spanish ones probably see the the other way around. Its just a stupid half full vs. half empty thing. Who is actually correct is another matter, and I suspect that it's the former not the latter. But good luck convincing a Spaniard
He is meThat is not a big surprise.

That's pretty normal.Because I know there was some stuff in there that I didn't remember from the first time... -
Sounds like a good ideaI would suggest Basque, because there is also few information on the origins of Basque - some people even say Basque is a leftover of ancient Iberian dialects.
I'm sure the Portugese favour that opinion. .Spanish has its roots in Latin, so it wouldn't be a very good option, would it? But if you choose Spanish, don't forget the fact that Old Spanish sounded very differently than today's Spanish - some say it sounded more or less like Portuguese.Undo, you know Gato Fedorento? (Sorry for off-topicness.)

Nice! 2 days late though

Re-reading any Tolkein book is a good thing.

Mhmm.A select few people (20-30) will get something this year. -
Extraordinarii were in fact infantry AND cavalry, drawn from the Italian allies that marched with Roman legions during the wars of the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. They were seperated from the other men of the legion when in camp, billeted between the northern gate and the praetor or consul's tent. As a completely volunteer force, they had particularly good standing among the other troops and were often called upon by higher ranks to perform special duties. This included serving as the personal bodyguards of consuls and leading the army on the march. For our purposes in 0 AD, the extraordinarii is a member of the infantry portion of the force.
Interesting. Cheers for filling me in on that.
Would making them mount/dismount serve any purpose though? Other than looking cool?
-
I was under the impression that Extraordinarii were in fact cavalry. Could someone please correct me and give a good explanation?
Cheers guys.

Gotta disagree about gameplay, but hey, it's your opinion. Graphics wise, it depends on your card, and also, I reckon AoE3 lowest is only a little worse than AoM on highest.On the lower settings, AOE3 looks worse than AOM. I think at the higher settings with Bloom and HDR the game looks great but is a pain for gameplay. Gameplay-wise I'd say AOE3 and AOM are on-par. -
Oh really? And why do you say that?In AoE3 it sucked indeed. Can't imagine how anyone could play like that. And one tad below that in gfx looked like AoM-level sophistication to me, but then again, the whole of AoE3 wasn't very good.Even on low level it's a whole heap better than AoM. So's the gameplay. But yeah, I 'd love to know why you don't like any of AoE3.
