    • Given the amount of sources already used in it, I can only recommend :   I don't know what Feminine Mystique does, but Bibasis Dance could be an historical alternative making use of an interesting attested Spartan custom, and the icon a Spartan woman (who were famously fit because of their exercising) doing it:   And as you might now, the armour progression shown is quite unrealistic (and I'm not sure about feeding wrong ideas just because they might look more intuitive ). This is explained by historian Roel Konijnendijk (posting as Iphikrates) in https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/5d3bkk/what_is_greek_hoplite_armor_made_from for example, one of the main points being "no real evidence of the use of leather armour" in Ancient Greece (even when more medievally inclined people tend to think otherwise). Then, streamlining a bit what I proposed in Thoughts on the Spartans, one could start with Bell Cuirass, and go through the more period accurate techs (or their more prevalent adoption at least) Transitional Cuirass, Muscle Cuirass and Linothorax, while making them look progressively more interesting: One could add the pteryges (leather strips) on all armours, but they are an integral part of the last, and I ran out of free AI images  (abs should be added on the second, and the last can be improved).
    • @Duileogaestá trabalhando na criação artística das Civ europeias nesse momento, teremos novidades em breve (mais Civs), porém sendo sincero, assumindo que a Europa de longe e a região como maior representação no jogo principal,mesmo sendo o menor dos continentes então não será o foco se extender por muito além do que o Mod já está. Teremos uma melhoria de qualidade nas Civs europeias presentes no Mod por exemplo.
    • Match Settings indicator: Could show time remaining for wonder win when hovering (as this is sometimes lost in the center notification area with other messages) Red when an opponent will win with Wonder Green when your team will win with Wonder Yellow when no wonder has been built yet Magenta when regicide is enabled  
    • A potential About page in-match: Diplomacy ceasefire indicators: No color overlay = normal match attack mode Green overlay - ceasefire in operation hover shows time remaining Orange overlay - ceasefire will end with 1 minute Red overlay - ceasefire will end within 20 seconds - get outta Dodge!  The text below highlighted is what would be moved to the 'About' page to save space:
    • The issue here refers to showing the ceasefire timer to players who do not use the dev overlay timers. This and a few things I noticed myself have prompted me to make some changes in a mod that possibly should be considered for the core game. Specifically: Issues: The game version text on the top panel takes too much real estate in-game There is no ceasefire feedback to players not using the game time overlay It is not easy to identify if Wonder Win or Regicide is active - I have seen this determine matches Actions: Move the game version info to an About page available in-game freeing space on the top panel Add color and countdown status to the diplomacy icon  Enhance the Match Settings icon to give feedback about Wonder Win and Regicide  I'll post some screenshots in comments below this for discussion.
