Oh, so they appear in DE (though quite differently than I suggested) and in normal maps they are the "temples with their own roots" that I mentioned in my first post. Thanks for the explanation !

Even just a Shipyard for each civ would be nice and make things a little more dynamic for the naval aspect. That way you're not overloading the Dock with stuff. The Carthaginian Shipyard would remain unique, being larger and stronger than the others.

In DE, they give all of your capturable buildings more capture points. They also heal nearby units and you can train Elite Healers there of their specific culture. From the Greek ones you can train the healer hero Hippocrates (only once) and research Oracle of Delphi. I'd like to come up with healer heroes and 1 special tech for each cultural shrine. In base game, they just heal nearby troops and you can train healers from them. They're basically capturable temples in that case, but with no techs. It would be nice to be able to include these and other things, like Cultural Artifacts and Mercenary Camps, in random maps, toggle-able by the game host like how Catafalques can be turned off and on. In DE, Cultural Artifacts give you a trickle of glory resource. In base game, perhaps a buff to capturing. In DE, Mercenary Camps give you the ability to train 30 mercenaries, which cost 0 population, specific to the culture of the camp. There's also a camp which trains mercenaries specific to the civ you are playing. Each player has one of those civ-specific camps nearby, while the cultural camps, based on where the map represents, are scattered across the map.

This map is designed to be played in singleplayer/2 players. VI century b.C., Sparta and Argo, are competing for control of the Peloponnese. The other faction starts as neutral, but you can sign alliances by paying the right amount. The map is designed to enjoy hoplite battles and strategy, putting a side the building part of the game (the map is quite full of cities/minor settlement: is there Corinth, Olympia, Messene, Mantinea and various villages). I still have to manage some issues with uploading the map here, but for now I want some comments on it. Let me know.

Looks good

NNNNOOOOO!!!!!!! Another brave soldier has fallen in battle, the brave war we wage for freedom, historical accuracy, and fun. Farewell, brave Decide4u, we will honor your memory.
