Perhaps they could be able to have scorpions and bolt towers (but no stone throwing catapults).  

Amazing. This answers: Can the campaign map work with real time also? I've spent some time thinking about how the latter option could maybe work with more than two participants in multiplayer, if you want to discuss it.

It gives one the impression that one is eating meat even if they never hunted. I'm not gonna lie and say the ancients were vegetarian (except the Buddhists and the Jains). But I'm also not gonna lie about them pursuing pacifist or strictly self-defense based victories.  Is there already a mod for this ?

More like, zombies? Speaking of which, a zombies mod could be nice.

When I open a map or create one in Scenario Editor, I get a wxWidgets error (issue #9307). The weird thing is, I don't get it when I first open Scenario Editor. Also, when I am about to place certain buildings (in the actual game), I get a "Program 'spirv/model_solid' with required defines not found" error (issue #9315)
