    When Ptolemy I saw that the wealth of Egypt depended on the participation of both Egyptians and Greeks in helping the economic progress and stability of the country, he found a solution that would aid both cultures, Egyptian and Hellenic integrate efficiently- the worship of the gods. The kings wanted to be seen as rulers as well as pharaohs. Indeed, Ptolemy V Epiphanes was crowed at Memphis according the Egyptian tradition.

    So, the history of Ancient Egypt was not lost for ever. Many of the huge temples, built by the great kings of the past, were still standing among the palms in the desert, and the traditional ritual was carried on in them. In the ancient language, to the old gods, by priests of the olden style, with white linen robes and shaven heads the religion known to the Pharaohs lived on. The divine animals: bulls and rams and crocodiles, were still fed and worshipped, old customs remembered and faithfully executed like in ages past.

    It was the priesthood, mainly confined to particular families who could trace their blood lines through the generations, which now constituted the only native aristocracy present in a world of Hellenic overlords. It was to them in the prestige of their office, their corporate wealth, and their sacred learning, that the common people looked as their national guides and leaders.

    Ptolemy formed a committee of Egyptian and Greek scholars to carry out his conceptual idea. The committee decided that the new religion would have at its core, a triad consisting of Isis, her son Harpocrates and Serapis (originally an Egyptian deity called Osir-Apis)

    This triad was introduced to the Greeks in a Greek style and to the Egyptians in an Egyptian fashion. While Ptolemy the First established the worship of Serapis, it was Ptolemy the Third who constructed the great temple for this deity in Alexandria.

  2. I tried it out and I can, now, say it is a crap.

    I found the graphics so fancy that it seemed annoying, sometimes, not to mention it was hard to differentiate a Greek house from a warehouse, for example. They adopted the somewhat the same "Capital & Cards" gamestyle from AoE3 (which was very criticized), but with even less "upgrades" to choose from, and needing to level up your capital a lot to have a decent support from it.

    It says the game is free, but you need to pay even to have your spearmen (the most basic Greek unit in-game) upgraded to 'Champion Spearmen'.

    There is a system brought from the RPG/Adventure games that enables you to give an item to certain units or buildings to make them stronger, and the stronger the item, the more you have to play to earn/be able to buy them.

    There is a PvP & Coop system, but it was taking too long to find someone, so I gave up.

    Also you get bored with your unit roster pretty quickly, since you'll be playing many 'tutorials' and stuff and have to train the same units to defeat the same guys, it just doesn't feel like you're progressing.

    One thing i liked is that you buy vanity items to customize your units appearance. But, of course, it had to have a bad thing about it: they have some outfits that totally kill the atmosphere of the game. Imagine you hoping for that epic PvP battle and then you see the enemy hoplites with rainbows drawn on their shield, spears made of traffic cones and a tribal helm...

    i love Inventory mode in military units, and villagers. and 4 slots to use a skill.
  3. Evade? I've thought they could perform elephant charge by giving them a charge button so that they can smash enemy formation while without affecting the nature of the game itself.

    yes they evade but if a unit attack mele , they dont be evade and attack him.
  4. You can kinda see the flowery symbol in this earring. Kinda weird how there are similar symbols all over.
