Thank you all for your kind words, made my evening! I'm always so glad to hear the various ways people connect with the 0 A.D music! <3

We haven't talked about Diogenes a lot, have we.

Wow, that sounds really cool. Would several of the early European civs eventually be consumed by the Roman Empire, turning them into the Rome civ?

Please be more respectful and appreciative of other people's work. The addition of the Germans was certainly not rushed; the pull request was open since well before the release of A27 and being reviewed for a full year before merged. And that time doesn't even include much of the work of creating the content itself, like researching, brainstorming, making the 3D models, the portraits, and putting everything together. Creating a complete new civilization takes tremendous effort and we should all be grateful for the wonderful people who dedicated their free time to achieve it. And in my opinion the Germans are definitely up to the standard of other civilizations in terms of art, historical accuracy, uniqueness, and balance. Stuff like custom phase names are just the cherry on top and can very well just be added in the future.

While reading this thread I remembered the article on Hotkeys in the Wildfire Games Gitea wiki. But I'm not sure it is up-to-date.

(Insert Pepperidge Farm meme) I was already here to remember a different version of the tracks that were later remastered. And then when some of the now "old" songs were brand new. It's hard to believe there are this many of them. And I wonder how many times I might have listened to all of them. I remember playing them outside of the game too, but I was already doing so like 15 years ago. At this point I got quite desensitized to them and it's harder to focus on the music (which makes them even greater background music). Btw, @OmriLahav was here recently, so I guess he'll like to hear our appreciation here too. He really gave the game a major part of its soul. All seriousness aside, imagine if The Player Of Many Names downloads the songs and after a while he'll be like "Oh wow, that's a nice beat, is that something new?". And then he'll check the song name and it says "You_are_Victorious!.ogg".

Me too. And the game actually has even more soundtracks than those 26. A lot of new ones came with A26, they only haven't been added to the website yet. Here's a zip with all of them (61 in total): 0ad-soundtracks.zip

Celts, Hellenes, Gauls, Celtiberian, Carthaginian, Romans The assets are still available for mods to use and we can resurrect them in some mod.
