[eye candy] Divine statues and myths.
Lion.Kanzen replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Tutorials, references and art help
Another equivalent to Baal and syncretism with Amun ; Zeus Ammon. Amun, worshipped by the Greeks as Ammon, had a temple and a statue, the gift of Pindar (d. 443 BC), at Thebes,[28] and another at Sparta, the inhabitants of which, as Pausanias says,[29] consulted the oracle of Ammon in Libya from early times more than the other Greeks. At Aphytis, Chalcidice, Amun was worshipped, from the time of Lysander (d. 395 BC), as zealously as in Ammonium. Pindar the poet honored the god with a hymn. At Megalopolis the god was represented with the head of a ram (Paus. viii.32 ยง 1), and the Greeks of Cyrenaica dedicated at Delphi a chariot with a statue of Ammon. When Alexander the Great occupied Egypt in late 332 BC, he was regarded as a liberator, thus conquering Egypt without a fight.[30] He was pronounced son of Amun by the oracle at Siwa.[31] Amun was identified as a form of Zeus[32] and Alexander often referred to Zeus-Ammon as his true father, and after his death, currency depicted him adorned with the Horns of Ammon as a symbol of his divinity.[33] The tradition of depicting Alexander the Great with the horns of Amun continued for centuries, with Alexander being referred to in the Quran as "Dhu al-Qarnayn" (The Two-Horned One), a reference to his depiction on Middle Eastern coins[34] and statuary as having horns of Ammon. -
I think moderation is the only thing that can make you change it.

Lamassu and Iberian Sphinx. It is impressive how the Near East influences places as far away as Spain. -

[Units] Roles and New paradigm+A28
Lion.Kanzen replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Gameplay Discussion
There is nothing related to the chariots? I don't know if it had to do with elephants or rotating shots as they walked away. But precisely because of the animation it could not be done until a solution was found. -

With all the game mechanics over the years, it has always been difficult to balance them. -

We are not Age of Empires I and II Our unit /building tree is asymmetrical. All factions work differently. In AoE what changes is that units have access to some units and not others. We, on the other hand, have access to hoplites, pikemen, cataphracts, chariots and elephants. In the AoE except for the elephants and camels everyone dominated those classes. 0 A D was intended more to be like AoM AND AoE III. With different factions we have rather equalized them a lot. It seems too much to me to equate an Indian spearman with a Roman one with the matter of armor. -

In AoE2 the deterioration is much darker, almost a burnt color(black,) like the photograph shown above. -

It's only slightly dirtier between both versions. -

This is Kart heavy damaged by Lordgood. Quite interesting but I expected more deterioration. -

I don't expect you to read them. -
Is important because it is not an architectural style that is easy to find or explain at first glance. Maybe it would be more appropriate with a more representative building But for example One thing that is evident in some models of the houses is that they have an internal garden/courtyard.

Maybe there is no evolution between those two but in the long run comparing it with the Macedonians and Successors, There is change, although perhaps in the Successors it is due to contact with the Roman troops. -
The Seleucid houses have to write that the architectural style is an oriental mix of the Middle East with Hellenistic style. https://wildfiregames.com/forum/topic/19497-poll-seleucid-architecture-direction/#comment-301849
