It was really difficult to start this map, there were few references on mauryans cities. Mostly no one likes this faction, so i decided to make something very cool (Hope so). Don't know if name it Pataliputra or Mauryan Empire, anyways.

If you've been away from 3D modelling that long, you might want to consider learning Blender rather than paying for a new license for your software. Since Blender is free, it is used a lot around FLOSS projects - and Enrique will be able to give you more help.

A story that tells about the Gallic empire and kingdom Ptolemy standing around Oasis Elmer. for many The second year of this kingdom can live peacefully side by side. However, conflict arose due to misunderstanding of the two kingdoms, until finally the battles happen. The two kingdoms war continues until the end of Gallic be beat Ptolemy kingdom. Want to know what's the story? Watch this episode and also watch another episode in 0AD Story Series with English subtitles and Indonesian.

Thanks Enrique, good to know. As I've posted before I'm just happy if I can contribute somehow with conceptual designs and maybe 3D models later on. Time will tell if I have to become a official member of the 0AD development team in the future, but that's too soon for me now as I've allready enough responsibilities in my day by day life. :-) I just wanted to know your opinion about this first task and if I can keep going designing conceptual models for 0AD. I Would be very happy to do so.

Elexis, i dont want to hire a hero just to raid eco. Its a bad choice. Hero is needed to boost main army , not some separate small groups like cavalry. Also i have read enough info about punic wars and Maharbal was a commander of all cavalry( incuding light numidian cavalry (ranged) ) I hope borg will join disscussion and wll bring his opinion here, because in lobby he agreed with it. Raids on traders can be counterd by normal citizen cavalry as well. Britons, Gauls,Athens, Maurya( +2 atack for sword),Persia can deal with Carthage cav pretty well, their horses dont need much iron to be trained. And as i said, so far all heroes who increase units atack, they increase champs atack or citizens atack but not separate types of units like melee/ range. May be let Maharbal increase + 4 atack for melee and +3 for ranged at least? Mercenaries cav is pretty expensive, i have played for Carthage a lot and i know that feel when u have a lack of stone / iron. Only lucky position from the beginning can help significantly. Idea of nerfing of the Briton heroine Boudicca and Roman hero Marcellus seems to be fair.

The lighting, terrain textures, water and details.... this is is my favorite so far. Awesome work man. Keep it up.

I draw in layers, so I can drop out the tower.

Who's next?

They look like similar to Mayans. "Zapotec culture" Commerce Governament Ceramic Legends and origins, (probably this represent their mythology)

There Zapotec buildings view from inside, so they painted as all Mesoamerican their buildings. This are possible patterns of this civilization.

Thanks for creating the forum post, it shows that your request is more sincere than other balancing changes proposed in the lobby. Historically, Maharbal was a cavalry commander that attacked in huge battles on the right flank. The current hero aura gives melee cavalry close to him a high (+5) attack boost. Indeed the spear infantry has a 3x bonus against cavalry, thus attacking them with melee cavalry is a bad use/cost ratio. The most efficient use is to raid the enemies trade, citizen soldiers and women, while using the speed advantage to avoid the slow spear infantry. I recall sentado as a player who exceptionally defeated enemies economically by just preventing them to trade with his cavalry (even towering the entire tradeline, building redundant markets and walls didn't stop him but only drained further resources). Notice also killing economic units will yield loot which can be invested to train champion infantry to defend spearmen. Your proposal to extend the +5 hero bonus for ranged cavalry doesn't convince me yet, as it will mean players don't build it for raiding anymore but for building the cavalry that stands behind the infantry frontline, using the hero passively like a tech upgrade, not as a commander. If you want that kind of bonus with the carthaginians, build the Hannibal Barca hero who gives +2 attack for all units in his range. Going the opposite direction and either reducing or limiting the affected classes of the +5 bonus of the Briton heroine Boudicca and Roman hero Marcellus seems preferable to me. For your other question, doing a grep affects *hero* -A4 in binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/data/auras/ (which can be found in public.zip of your installation as well) yields the following. This information should be displayed in the structure tree in the first place, proposed in #3972. Extending what Stan mentioned, balancing improvements are rarely explored as the few active developers that we have mostly focus on the engine, except @fatherbushido who seems to be absent currently though.

Of course you can use 0AD on the forums - I think the point was that you accidentally hit the capital O, and us geeks like to nitpick sometimes

Ok,.. I've installed Blender on my mac, but I still need to learn a bit more about the whole 0AD project before I get into tasks of more responsibility.

What do you know of the Zapotec cities and culture specifically lion? Around the classical age. Just... curious

In this forum it doesn't. I just don't like Youtube confusing 0 A.D. the game with "Zero Ad(vertisements)".

Wow gorgeous

I am having the exact same issue. iMac late 2013 running macOS Sierra. I was just going to make a post about this, glad I found a topic covering it.

How about "Vox Populi"? Kind of fits the FLOSS world.

Huts and stone buildings.

Make the current Ptol CC the upgrade actor and make a newer less fancy model for the un-upgraded actor.
