Most people have heard of the story of the flood. Water came down and wiped out most of humanity. This is most famously told in the Biblical narrative of Noah and the Ark. Interestingly, in many mythological traditions such as Norse, Greek, Sumerian, Chinese, and Native American just to name a few, there is a similar story. Obviously there are differences between them, yet it is fascinating that such a story is told on a global level. One of the more prominent explanations for this phenomenon is to argue that it confirms the Bible's story, but for those who would dismiss this, what do you think of the matter? Is it a coincidence and apologists who argue for the aforementioned statement are simply jumping conclusions? This gets into somewhat controversial territory due to the religious nature of it, so please be respectful of course. :)

Hi AtendedorBoludos did not resign this game and did not want to solve it even though he was noted on it in the chat. @user1 @Hannibal_Barca commands.txt

Another interesting note is that global sea levels have risen by 130 meters since the last glacial maximum, c. 20.000 years ago, rising more than 100 meters over a 7000 year period from 14.000 years to 7000 years ago. Not exactly a sudden deluge, but it's effects on pre-historic human populations and their movement (often traveling and living on the coastlines) would have been significant, and definitely left some kind of mark on the collective global memory. Areas between landmasses which were previously connected and probably "densely" populated according to Pre-Historic standards became submerged: British Isles and Europe were connected, the Aegean sea and islands used to be coastal plains, The Adriatic, Black and Caspian Seas were much smaller, the Bering straight, South-East Asian Islands and the Asian mainland (Sundaland), Australia and Papua New Guinea, India and Sri Lanka, Arabian Peninsula and Iran Korean Peninsula and China (perhaps even Japan) Distance between Yemen and the horn of Africa became negligible Basically every coastline of the world was affected.

Flooding happens pretty much everywhere. It's kind of hard to explain how or why exactly. A storm can pass, the next day, it will be fine... or you'll be canoeing to the local store for some ice-cream. The length of it depends on a lot for factors early civilizations probably didn't know. It makes sense for cultures to tell stories of them. Scare the kids so they know what to watch out for them. Parents have been telling stories for a long time. Some stick around. The flood isn't the only story that's crossed continents. The concepts of gods and different 'focuses' of them. Death for example, the underworld, whatever. Kid's need to know it's a part of life in some way. If you just think about how myths start you'll see where most of them come from: preservation, preparation, and to answer questions we don't know. Control is also another reason why they exist. Which makes sense. You need to need to believe some things have a consequence. Instead of getting scared of the parent, let them look to the sky instead. It's always on their shoulders so they shouldn't forget its there. That's my logic at least. Idk

I'm not sure the source of this but isn't bad concept but isn't too much ancient . dont forget White Huns (Hephthalites) Can be nice work to improved Nomad faces. im not sure with hair cut, may be fantasy propose but the faces are interesting. others pages considered Altai haircuts. https://yandex.com/images/search?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2F564x%2F84%2F86%2F68%2F848668f55299ffa8b968f975271a27df.jpg&rpt=imageview i have some ideas to improve this new faction. things to explore. 1- costumes New gameplay mechanics. Defense-attacking, society, slavery... they dominate their enemies becoming many peoples to slavery.

Maybe you should check out Terra Magna mod for those Xiongnu I think we all want Scythians

is volunteer you can choice... by now we are trying to create heroes portraits, like Boudica,,like Kushite Heroes.

Basically Xiongnu with lots of Germanic mercs? Nice... Here's the source for the Total War emblem. Not too shabby... Other Hunnish stuff:

I feel like the Huns are better for late antiquity. Mongols feel better for Millennium AD. That's up to them though of course.

Congrats to @borg- the four best players of Multiplayer 0 A.D. Would have been nice to have a bigger media coverage of this.

Well the next cinematic is almost done, should be up within the next week. I figure people here are more interested in gameplay though, so here's a sneak peek at the next Civ that's being added into Hyrule Conquest:
