    • Good Morning, after playing this game for a few days, I thought that Roads and Paths would be a great addition. Road and Paths, (Stone, Dirt, etc.) could boost ground units and carriages, especially between allies. It would also look nicer, to have a town with some pathing, instead of just grass or dirt. As an alternative, it could also be done with a painting tool that would allow us to just paint roads and paths, that would not have a gameplay advantage, besides looking nice. Thank you in Advance Imran

    • New Structures, units and art for Mycenaean and Minoans:
    • It doesn't seem correct. The earliest account is in the Épinal-Erfurt glossary. Which is generally dated to the end of the seventh century.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Épinal-Erfurt_glossary "From the foregoing, it should be clear that Épinal-Erfurt Glossary was compiled in the last quarter of the seventh century, likely at St. Peter and Paul’s Abbey (later St. Augustine’s Abbey) in Canterbury, where the school of Theodore and Hadrian was established." - Herren & Sauer In Épinal-Erfurt glossary the mention I am referring to is the following: ‘conpetum, tuun uel ðrop’  So in this glossary: Compitum = Tūn = Throp. The three terms are equivalents.  The Latin compitum was generally used to designate a cross-road during the Roman period, but Isidore of Seville explained that in his day, it referred to a place where people from the countryside gathered. And tūn/tuun at this time still meant enclosure, farmland or yard: the Laws of Æthelberht (L. Ethb. 17) show that "running into a man's tún" (breaking into his yard) was a punishable offense. At the best, it was used for estate as in the translation of Bede's Ecclesiastical History (9th century). There 'tunes' was used for the translation of villulae. In this context, villulae means a small villa or a small estate [villulae oratorium refers to a private proprietary chapel].  So in the end, the earliest account for throp in Old English doesn't seem to designate a village but a gathering place.
