      Civ: Palmyrenes

      By Nicolaus_von_Kues · Posted

      What I have found in my research. At this stage the Romans discarded helmets of Celtic origin or of that style of manufacture. The Neiderbieber style was the last to use the evolution of the imperial gallic coolus as a base. https://www.ospreypublishing.com/uk/osprey-blog/2025/roman-infantry-helmets/ Both Montefortino and Coolus are called "Jockey cap" helmets  H. Russell Robinson. Despite this, the Niederbieber is the only helmet that the Romans created themselves. It was neither Celtic, nor Greek, nor Eastern. The source says that: "Throughout their development, Roman infantry helmets had one thing in common: the fact that their origins always lay with the equipment of peoples Rome had encountered on the battlefield and subsequently adopted (and adapted). The Montefortino, Coolus and Weisenau/Imperial-Gallic and -Italic helmets were all derived from helmets of the inhabitants of north-western Europe. By contrast, the Late Roman ridge type helmets were adopted from steppe prototypes to the east, which appealed because their composite construction was less troublesome than the earlier one-piece bowl examples. Arguably, the only true Roman development was the Niederbieber type, with their deep neck guards and close-fitting, large cheek pieces, and these were only a natural progression from Early Principate helmets". Apparently, the type of manufacturing is what differentiates each model or type. I will try to read the entire source, that is, the book: Roman Infantry Helmets by M.C. Bishop.

      Sure. My Gitea account is @bowen951209. By the way, do you mean it's currently not possible to sync with CI like what I said in the first solution?

      That's because 1) Gitea is lacking some features and 2) due to defacing issues, I need to grant you permissions. then you'll be able to edit it  Do you want some ? What's your gitea account ?

      Random map picker should exclude some 'special challenge' maps...

      By Gurken Khan · Posted

      I just re-roll the match when I get one of the above or some other no/scarce wood maps. I think it would be nice if it were possible to create your own pool; for example start with all maps and then de-select those that suck/don't fit your play style.
