-
i want show the page when filled with basic info, im studing too, i was talk to you for emailHere is the link to our official wordpress page. http://fallenempires....wordpress.com/
Also, @ Lion.Kanzen, When I have more time (maybe over the weekend) I can do one or two of the more important civ's complete design documents. Once they are done I'll share them with you on Google Drive and I can send a public link to each civ's thread with that civ's design document.
.tomorrow i go for Shopping Center [Mall] to buy some gift for Valentines days., only in the night you can contact me my time zone is central -6 hours GTM.
-
thank you, is not was easy, i mean the symbols, thank you to you, and your efforts. you are great info/documentation contributor.Looks great lion.
Michael request some Shield more.

i i agree with you, when you limited heroes you can limited special buildings, when avance to city phase can select what especial tecnologies and buildings , you want to select, a bad decision from player can bring to ruin him/her. like AOK with Minor gods selection.Carthaginian troops
*Regular units
- Libyan Spearman (Spearman)
- Mauritanian Archer (Archer)
- Numidian Cavalry (Cavalry Javelinist)
*Champion units
-Sacred Band (Pikeman)
-Sacred Band Cavalry (Cavalry Spearman) I don't know if this unit will remain in standart games
-War Elephant (Elephant)
Mercenaries
*Celts
-Gallic Mercenary (Swordman)
-Gallic Mercenary Cavalry (Cavalry Swordman)
*Italic
-Itallian Allied Swordman (Swordman)
-Italic Cavalry (Cavalry Spearman)
*Iberians
-Balearic Slinger (Slinger)
-Iberian Heavy Cavalry (Cavalry Swordman)
They only lack rams and cavalry archers.
So my point, carthaginians are designed to be the civ with most kinds of units. My suggestion is to make the embassies limited to one faction. Why?
This way everytime that you play as Carthaginian you will have to specialise in one or another tactics, making an important choice that you will carry with all the game.
As everytime you face this civ you won't know what kind of units will the enemy deploy, but in a closer range of units.
Also every embassy could have a few special techs, like aoe3 native post.
I know that players don't like to be restricted about the options, but it's a opinion that I wanted to share.
this way persian can have other special building.
greek can have stoa or a other embassy kind building [balkan mecnaries] or tech building.
Gallic and Briton have a blacksmith or access other special building.
Roman use can usse Special building like Army camp or Mercenary train building, or Special building.
Macedonian with Siege Workshop or the Lybrerie or Theatron.
that aplicable all faction
-
i play some and never see that bahavior, [if i could remember now], but i have to check tooI haven't checked.
-
i was suposse was same. that happen in rectangle and square scenarios ??Superficially similar, yes.
-
hmm,i didn't notice, so are two similar bugs?.Because the player shown in TotalNoobPL's screenshot is not an AI.
now i see, its similar to border bug, that can reach a tree in border. that was fixed, right?
the mine is a Ai bug. other similar to these is unitsin border stand by, ai must be generate a order in that cases, like EE never stop to build , or find resources., or ai must be resign.
-
why?The bug shown in your video is a different one:
-
no, its not but may be can be same bug, this video is from SNV last Build. is a regular gameplay and is no first time a saw this behavior. the unit dont end to cutting even 20/20, may be TotalNoobPL can be givve us a video or screenshot.Is that a video of TotalNoobPL's game?
if noticed is diferente that when The AI tries to reach a tree that is outside of the map.

i try to do.
steps to replicate this bug:
conquest all map building in all territory possible and destroy all AI buildings.
even when a replay she stop, after a few minutes, start again try to cutt over her capacity and dont go a dropsite, obviusly
-
now im sure, i was uploaded a video to youtube. to you guys can view clearly that i mean.Yes, yes. But what makes you sure there were no dropsites left in the game played by TotalNoobPL?
-
after i was destroyed all they buildings they continues cutting and do it economic task. and they are no to close to border.What makes you so sure this is due to there not being a dropsite? I've seen this when the tree is unreachable too. Also, this doesn't look like the AI player - the civ emblem is Iberian and so are the buildings in screenshot.
There is a similar issue with qBot though, where it will try gathering from a resource and then stop if there is no drop site and then start again over and over, but that is an issue in qBot, not in UnitAI.
another bug, the units dont do anything in border, stacked next to other units. but i take a shoot for confirm.
-
that is different bug, this is when ai don't have a warehouse/mill/dropsite. or any building, same thing happens with farming and miningI think it's a known bug. The AI tries to reach a tree that is outside of the map. The woodcutters aren't able to take wood out of it, and chop forever.
-
great work. , waht program uses to do that? blender only?I quickly found some things I didn't like so I'm attaching a new image. These include, slightly larger paddles and some decoration on the wooden support for the ropes. Also, don't pay too much attention to the sails since those are duplicated planes and produce weird results upon rendering, but it should look fine in game.
-
its true, when the units not have a dropsite the Ai never end to chop
-
@enrique here is the Textures, was hard.
-
i hope dont offense youI didn't understand.
Here's the texture I made if you think you can make some good looking grunge.
but thanks to give me i see if i can do that. if i fail no problem,
Working...
-
These are mine and they are why I play this game.
- Roman Legionaries
- Praetorians
- Cathaphract
- Armored Elephant.
- Partian Horse Archers
- Hyspapites
- Argyraspirdes
- Inmortals
- Macedonian Pezhetaroi
- Noble Gallic Cavalry
- Naked Fanatic
- Germanic Heavy Cavalry
- Siege Tower
- Onager
- Roman Legionaries
-
Argyraspides and Hyspapit too?The armored elephant is a champion unit. It does not gain ranks. The non-armored elephant will have up to 3 riders, one more each gained rank.
Adding grunge maps to the metal make it look like wet from a distance, looks ok when zooming, but I think is not necessary.
.Not the actuallooks some leather or plastic only this, is my opinion, the other textures are very cool.
-
send me at email. [lion.kanzen] google mailOkay Lion,
I'll email you shortly (I just don't want it posted publicly)
you know;::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:/
-
So exited i love Armored Have Elephants, make a Upgrade to Light Elephant to Haevy Elphant.
the Metal texture need some work. more grounge.
like this
but find some for free[that is an example dont use it], you can take a photo from a home pot or something like that its not difficult.
-
yes that we buildings have same with other texturs more Levant materials than North African-South SpainJust a reminder the Phoenicians colonized Carthage they where the parent civ.
Enjoy the Choice
too long yet. Focus in Phonicia, not refernces to Carthage until Final.Brief History (off the top of my head.... I can do more later):
The Phoenicians began as a tribe of Canaanites who settled in the agriculturally fertile region in the Northern Levant (Lebanon and Coastal Syria). They formed city-states, much like the Greek poleis. Some of the most famous of these city-states were: Sidon, Tyre, Byblos, and Baalbek. Most of these cities are still inhabited today. It's hard to find Phoenician ruins because they are buried under later Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Arab, Ottoman, and Modern buildings. The city-state of Tyre, in southern Lebanon, sent a princess, named Elissa (Latin: Dido) to found Carthage. The myth goes that she was running away from her evil father and she fled to Africa, where she made a deal with a local chief that if she could surround land with her shirt, she could own the land for free. She cut up her shirt and tied it up into a long rope and encircled the area of the city-state of Carthage, and it was given to her for free! The Phoenicians were also master merchants and sailors, establishing trade routes to as north as England, and possiby as south as what is now Ghana and Cote-d'-Ivoire. They are a very unique culture, and I am proud to have them represented in this game!
remember the Structure.History; Origin, Rise to power(Without Carthage), Colonies, Forces and Fall.

.Atenmeses i need your Email to show you some ideas before presented in forum.
And show you Emblems.
i need a idea for Phoenician Emblem
-
this some base carthaginian with buildings.
i need the history of Phoenicia in some lines.
-
in my last game session uses, Wololo cheat for, use an ally units[Note: i set that ally without an AI ] was very interesting Fuse Persian and Roman in a unique force.
if you dont set AI a ally the units can be, capturings instantly to yours own faction if you send a unit to capturing with unit´s LOS.
-
not, i speak aestethic not screen, for example art sketch/layout like loordgood drawings and micheal art concept.Some units/structures, that have errors in their xml's in alpha 12 are not included. Beside that, most works.
I'll implement the technology-part hopefully next week.
@Lion.Kanzen:
Actually, it is a bit too early to implement background-graphics, as the basic structure of the .tex-files should not change (or they will be replaced and manual adjustments will be lost).
Nevertheless, I'd prefer to have not really background-graphics as this will decrease readability, unless you mean something along "make the background look as if it was old paper". What could be done is making sketches or comparable pictures to that of the extraordinarius in the first .pdf i uploaded (see page 1 of this thread). As you can see, they should be quite higher than wide, so i don't know if this is easily possible for all units/structures. Edit: Ideally, the sketches et.c should be available as vectorgraphics (svg or pdf). Thanks for your help!
Another point thats quite visible in the .pdf is the short or missing history for many units/structures. I don't know if the <History> is used somewhere ingame (or if it's planned), but I guess there are some that could need some extension/rewrite -- this could be a task for someone that is willing to help, but not really skilled with graphical programms or programming

this change the game, and bring to other level, beyond AOK, more Like Total War, but own style, and building constructor.
