    • Thanks! How does it look now?
    • Hi Asher, I read this thread as well as opened your repo on GitHub. Only after reading the first changelog entry I understood, what this Mod changes to vanilla. May I ask you to add a ReadMe.md and/or change the OP opening describing what's the USP of your Mod?
    • it's already in replay pallas, if is can be shown in forum or website people will have more visibility, or Replay pallas should be advertised in WFG 0AD web page
    • Yes, I also think cache friendly elements is a good idea.
    • Even though it doesn't seem to be helping much I thought I add a little more detail regarding the Classical Warfare AEA project. Another thing that separates it a little from the base game is more diversity within units.   For example, there were at least 3 common types of bows from 500 BCE to 0/100 CE.  You had the simple bow.  Cheaper, easier to make, but not as strong/accurate as (Composite/Longbows.)  Most of the Greeks were not known for their archery, the mainly used the simple bow.  Then there is the composite bow, almost twice the range as the simple bow, popular among the Steppe people, used by the Achaemenid Empire (Persians) Sele and Ptoles. Then you had the more powerful, bigger long bows of the Maurya and Kushites.  These bows often matched the range or exceeded that of the composite bow. But do it its size had a slower rate of fire and was not ideal for very mobile units.  There were also different types of ammunition used with slings, most commonly stone or lead when available.  Again trained slingers with lead ammunition could often out shoot archers as far as distance.  The Balearic and Rhodians in particular were highly sought after for their slinging skills. Please correct me if I'm wrong   But yes we are trying to make an effort to represent some of the important differences from the time period which made certain archers better than others, while some infantry stronger than others etc.
