Hello,

Are the names of the buildings and units historically authentic? 

Since I am Arab and I know that Arabic is derived from Phoenician (Carthage), I remarked that some words are so close to the actual Arabic (when playing Carthage certainly) ... Are those names historically correct or were just made up for the game?

Great work, I love this game

Thanks

Those should be the phonetics of the names.

Both because we can't render hieroglyphs yet (at least not without a workaround; we'd need to be able to render the second Unicode plane, which is hard with the UTF-16 encoding, so we first need to bring the entire engine to UTF-8 encoding), and because they're somewhat pronounceable now.
