    -¿Entonces , en la revitalización de Terra Magna ,habrá culturas de todas partes y con diferentes mecánicas o especialidades únicas de juego?

    La gran tierra. esa es la idea. eso significa Terra magna. lo ultimo no depende del mod.

    I'm not quite sure what real-life archetypes these in-game art images correspond to. At least it should be said, I have never seen such a big tank. It would be great if you could check it, because the art elements in some old games usually come from the creator's imagination.

    Conversely, what about making civic centers dependent on the water supply system?

    I prefer not to restrict players. it is only an economical alternative and easy to do but difficult to defend.

    It is to avoid the territory mechanics being so restrictive.

    it is a problem to design something like this.

    in the player's mind should be easy to recognise. the game is not always going to be a museum, sometimes it has to have that practical part.

    Pliny the Elder, who was a procurator in the region in 74 AD, described a technique of hydraulic mining that may be based on direct observation at Las Médulas:

    What happens is far beyond the work of giants. The mountains are bored with corridors and galleries made by lamplight with a duration that is used to measure the shifts. For months, the miners cannot see the sunlight and many of them die inside the tunnels. This type of mine has been given the name of ruina montium. The cracks made in the entrails of the stone are so dangerous that it would be easier to find purpurine or pearls at the bottom of the sea than make scars in the rock. How dangerous we have made the Earth![7]

    Pliny also describes the methods used to wash the ores using smaller streams on riffle tables to enable the heavy gold particles to be collected. Detailed discussion of the methods of underground mining follows, once the alluvial placer deposits had been exhausted and the mother lode sought and discovered. Many such deep mines have been found in the mountains around Las Médulas. Mining would start with the building of aqueducts and tanks above the mineral veins, and a method called hushing used to expose the veins under the overburden.

    The remains of such a system have been well studied at Dolaucothi Gold Mines, a smaller-scale site in South Wales. Opencast methods would be pursued by fire-setting, which involved building fires against the rock and quenching with water. The weakened rock could then be attacked mechanically and the debris swept away by waves of water. Only when all opencast work was uneconomical would the vein be pursued by tunneling and stoping.

    Pliny also stated that 20,000 Roman pounds (6,560 kg) of gold were extracted each year.[8] The exploitation, involving 60,000 free workers, brought 5,000,000 Roman pounds (1,640,000 kg) in 250 years.

    In other words, in the future, the water supply system must be built first before new towns can be built?         On the other hand, water supply and agriculture should also be closely integrated. Without enough water, farmland cannot be cultivated.

    Latin American villages?

     

    yes.

    my inspiration comes from the citybuilders Caesar II and II and Pharaoh.

    but I needed to think about something rural.

    I have imagined water resources before. I feel that natural water bodies are more important than man-made wells or cisterns. Open channels and aqueducts should be a better choice. Let them be built on the water's edge and then extend like a city wall. , if this can be done, it would be very interesting.

    I have thought of it as integrated with territorial mechanics.

    PD: villages start with small things, some pictures I took of the village where my girlfriend's parents are living.

    It should be noted that part of this is 21st century, and we still use these facilities in the countryside today, but the building materials have become steel and concrete.

    that seems perfect to me. It is one of the variations that he thought to make like the ones that the Arabs and nomads of the desert in the Middle East had.

    Obviously your example is bigger.

    If the ancient Mesoamerican factions didn't have a mature model, this was also an opportunity to perfect them.

    It turns out that we Chinese are more worried about the influence of Great Turkism when dealing with such historical issues, but rarely consider religion, because we treat Christianity, Islam, Judaism and Manichaeism equally.

    europeans historically hate turkic peoples and jews. they have made exterminations(genocide) even early as  the middle ages.

    the topic about the Khazarians is closed if you check it.

    There are already Zapotecs factions in the precolonial mod. I think we can focus on some factions that have not been fully constructed

    Nope.

    A lot of code is still required for these factions.

    Pre colonial mod is only pre Colombian civs.

    Mesoamerican is highly required by fans.

    Duileoga and I are creating a new line of tecs for the Mayans and a lot can be used with the Zapotecs. Much of the delay will be mine in finding the time to apply them.

    Mesoamerican techs.

    They won't let you create this.

    I see that for a long time one of the most interesting mods that exists in 0ad was left aside in favor of creating civilizations in individual and separate mods, or being added in mods that in addition to civ changes 0ad mechanics, something that I personally like much more I understand the side of those who prefer a gameplay closer to Vanilla. I see that the new release will be soon and I intend to send the works created by me and @Duileoga with the Mayas in addition to the work done with the Japanese Yayoi and seeing that I wonder why not add the Xiongnu and Zapotecs as well. I believe that in a mod it would only create more vitality and interest for this (we have the Thebans and Scythian created by WOW could be an idea too). I would like to know if this idea is supported before anything else, knowing that a lot can be developed and improved with time but all mentioned are playable and of the same required time range.

    tenia esa idea de traer las civs de wow's a terra magna.
