It's something small that's missing. That doesn't mean it's not ready to be a 1.0 version. It could already be included in that state. The emblem doesn't seem correct to me, I and @Genava55's help had made 2 versions. But one might think that it is intended for the Suebians.

At the gameplay level it lacks some "spice" something that gives a cool differentiating element to combat. Something unique and exotic. -The nomadic camps are interesting. There are not enough archers, any archers, brother, could the women be archers? Or would they be better for combat and combat support? Can wagons be used for combat? @Genava55 Any ideas?

i clone the mod https://gitlab.com/real_tabasco_sauce/cimbri-refinement.git

the banner.

several things I am curious about. The Faction is called Germans. The faction emblem. generic sound for the supply Wagons. we need fix that right here. a got some errors.

I have to correct it, it looks deformed in the pc screen, in the cell phone it looks smaller.

GoG consumers get their information from specialized social networks. https://www.gog.com/galaxy But they have their own steam style app: Galaxy.

I was thinking of making a mod but I didn't know if you wanted us to try it as a mod.

It's more bigger. For those who love retro games and classic games it is a good alternative. In GoG I only know 2 RTS. Fertile Crescent and Empire Earth. And they are not free.

What about a patch for SVN?

I would like to see options in the atlas interface. There should be a ticket for that task.

Regardless of the scenario or we need a couple of features to create scenarios, that is, for the Atlas. Being able to block units, buildings and technologies in scenarios. This feature exists since AoE I. It is used as a handicap in many scenarios, other times for historical reasons.

https://ageofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Co-op But apparently it is this one.

I don't know, I've never played that mode. So I haven't any idea.

There was a tutorial campaign in Empire Earth.

Cooperative mode. We don't have anything like that.

The first map, the defense of Egypt. In this map you defend the Nile River from the Kushite invaders. 1- You learn everything with the mechanics of groups, formations, grouping units, stances, using hoplites in the front line. Cretan archers in the rearguard. 2- You learn to use ships to protect units. 3- You learn how to heal your soldiers. 4- You learn how to capture buildings. 5- You learn to counter cavalry. All this on a map similar to this one.

The only problem with Massalia is that it doesn't lead us to any other story. Neukratis connects well with the Ionian revolt. If you read the events that led to this. The Greek mercenaries get into trouble in Egypt and Asia Minor. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inaros_II

Yes, I was thinking that in the first map, control groups, There you will have a mercenary army available and you will concentrate on fighting against different Kushite invaders. In that first map you will have to defend and counterattack as well as capture settlements, All this along the Nile River from Karnak. We will participate in the recapture of Egyptian territory.

The Carians. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carians They are also named as mercenaries in inscriptions found in ancient Egypt and Nubia, dated to the reigns of Psammetichus I and II. They are sometimes referred to as the "Cari" or "Khari". Carian remnants have been found in the ancient city of Persepolis or modern Takht-e-Jamshid in Iran. A meeting between the Psamtik II (595-589BCE), and an Ionian, or Carian, mercenary. These "Men of Bronze" were wooed by Psamtik with the promise of great rewards, and assisted in reconquering Egypt. There is still graffiti from these ancient Greeks at the Temple of Abul Simbel, where on famous inscription, on the leg of a statue of Ramses II, states, "Archon, son of Amoibichos, and Axe, son of nobody ('Pelechos son of Eudamos'), wrote this." Art by Johnny Shumate, I'm going to need a Carians mercenary. With Peltast shield With spear and axe

Context of Egypt under the Saite dynasty.

[...]After being chased from Memphis, Psamtik I received another similar prophecy from the goddess Wadjet of Buto, who promised him the rule over all Egypt should he employ bronze men from the sea. Beginning in 662 BCE, Psamtik I formed contacts with Gyges, the king of the Anatolian kingdom of Lydia, who sent to Egypt the Ionian Greek and Carian mercenaries that Psamtik I used to reconquer Memphis and defeat the other kinglets of the Dodecarchy, some of whom fled to Libya. Psamtik I might have been also aided in these military campaigns by Arabs from the Sinai Peninsula. After having eliminated all his rivals, Psamtik I reorganized these mercenaries and placed them in key garrisons at Daphnae in the East and Elephantine in the South to prevent a possible Kushite attack and to control trade.[11] This military aid from Lydia lasted until 658 BCE, at which point Gyges faced an impending Cimmerian invasion.[14] By Psamtik I's 4th regnal year, he completed the forging of an alliance with the powerful family of the Masters of Shipping from Heracleopolis, and by his 8th regnal year in 657 BCE, he was in full control of the Delta.[11] Psamtik II led a foray into Nubia in 592 BC, marching as far south as the Third or even the Fourth Cataract of the Nile, according to a contemporary stela from Thebes (Karnak), which dates to Year 3 of this king's name and refers to a heavy defeat that was inflicted upon the kingdom of Kush.[4] A well-known graffito inscribed in Greek on the left leg of the colossal seated statue of Ramesses II, on the south side of the entrance to the temple of Abu Simbel, records that: "When King Psammetichus (i.e., Psamtik II) came to Elephantine, this was written by those who sailed with Psammetichus the son of Theocles, and they came beyond Kerkis as far as the river permits. Those who spoke foreign tongues (Greek and Carians who also scratched their names on the monument) were led by Potasimto, the Egyptians by Amasis". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psamtik_II Under Apries: According to classical historians, Apries campaigned in the Levant, took Sidon and so terrified the other cities of Phoenicia that he secured their submission.[7][8] However, this supposed submission was likely short lived.[9] A recently uncovered stela from Tahpanhes records that Nebuchadnezzar II attempted to invade Egypt in 582 BC, but Apries' forces were capable to repel the invasion.[10] In Cyrenaica to the west, Battus II of Cyrene had encouraged further Greek settlement in his city, especially from the Peloponnese and Crete. This sparked conflict with the indigenous Libyans, whose king Adicran appealed to Apries for help around 570 BC. Apries launched a military expedition against Cyrene, but was decisively defeated at the Battle of Irasa. When the defeated army returned home, a civil war broke out in the Egyptian army between the indigenous troops and the foreign mercenaries. The Egyptians threw their support to Amasis II, a general who had led Egyptian forces in a highly successful invasion of Nubia in 592 BC under Pharaoh Psamtik II, Apries' father.[1] Amasis quickly declared himself pharaoh in 570 BC, and Apries fled Egypt and sought refuge in a foreign country. When Apries marched back to Egypt in 567 BC with the aid of a Babylonian army to reclaim the throne of Egypt, he was likely killed in battle with Amasis' forces.[13][4][14] Alternatively, Herodotus (Histories 2.169) holds that Apries survived the battle, and was captured and treated well by the victorious Amasis, until the Egyptian people demanded justice against him, whereby he was placed into their hands and strangled to death.[15] Amasis thus secured his kingship over Egypt and was then its unchallenged ruler. Amasis, however, reportedly treated Apries' mortal remains with respect and observed the proper funerary rituals by having Apries' body carried to Sais and buried there with "full military honours."[4] Amasis, the former general who had declared himself pharaoh, also married Apries' daughter, Khedebneithirbinet II, to legitimise his accession to power. While Herodotus claimed that the wife of Apries was called Nitetis (Νιτῆτις) (in Greek), "there are no contemporary references naming her" in Egyptian records. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apries

Tehaphnehes (Eze 30:18), while an Egyptian queen (XXIst Dynasty) is named Tahpenes (1Ki 11:19-20). Tahpanhes was a city on the eastern frontier of Lower Egypt, represented today by Tell Defenneh, a desert mound lying some 20 miles Southwest from Pelusium (Biblical "Sin") and a little North of the modern Al-Kantarah ("the bridge"), marking the old caravan route from Egypt to Palestine, Mesopotamia and Assyria. Its Egyptian name is unknown, but it was called Daphnai, by the Greeks, and by the modern Arabs Def'neh. The site is now desolate, but it was a fertile district when watered by the Pelusiac branch of the Nile. [...]The pottery found at Tahpanhes "shows on the whole more evidence of Greeks than Egyptians in the place. .... Especially between 607-587 BC a constant intercourse with the Greek settlers must have been going on and a wider intercourse than even a Greek colony in Palestine would have produced. .... The whole circumstances were such as to give the best possible opportunity for the permeation of Greek words and Greek ideas among the upper classes of the Jewish exiles" (Petrie, Nebesheh and Defenneh, 1888, 50). This was, however, only one of many places where the Greeks and Hebrews met freely in this century (see e.g. Duruy, History of Greece, II, 126-80; Cobern, Daniel, 301-307). A large foreign traffic is shown at Tahpanhes in which no doubt the Jews took part. Discoveries from the 6th century BC included some very finely painted pottery, "full of archaic spirit and beauty," many amulets and much rich jewelry and bronze and iron weapons, a piece of scale armor, thousands of arrow heads, and three seals of a Syrian type. One of the few inscriptions prays the blessing of Neit upon "all beautiful souls." There was also dug up a vast number of minute weights evidently used for weighing precious metals, showing that the manufacture of jewelry was carried on here on a large scale. One of the most pathetic and suggestive "finds" from this century, which witnessed the Babylonian captivity, consisted of certain curious figures of captives, carved in limestone, with their legs bent backward from their knees and their ankles and elbows bound together (Petrie, op. cit., chapters ix-xii). https://www.internationalstandardbible.com/T/tahpanhes.html
