  1. @Duileoga @Lopess Can it be rigged to use the camel armature already in the game?
  2. Athena's owl, the Little Owl (Athene noctua), often doesn't have a specific name in myth but is called Glauca, Glaucus, or Glaux (meaning "gleaming" or "bright-eyed") and symbolizes wisdom, insight, and the city of Athens itself, appearing on ancient coins and associated with her epithet Glaukopis. Species: The specific bird is the (European) Little Owl (Athene noctua), common in Greece. Symbolism: It represents wisdom, vigilance, and the ability to see hidden truths, reflecting Athena's own attributes as goddess of wisdom. Names: It's often referred to as the "Owl of Athena" or "Owl of Minerva" (her Roman counterpart). In Greek, Glaux (or Glauca) refers to the owl and is linked to Athena's "owl-eyed" (glaukopis) epithet. Mythological Connection: Some Roman myths mention a woman, Nyctimene, transformed into an owl by Athena for protection, but this is a later story. Cultural Significance: The owl was a powerful symbol for the city of Athens, appearing on coins and pottery. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Voila: My birthday gift to myself this year: My first tattoo. I chose Athena's owl, Glaucus ("bright-eyed").
  3. There are things we could do to make Petra behave more like a human and less like a omnipotent machine. For instance, don't allow it to attack until one of its units has seen one of your buildings. Force it to send a "scout" or scout party randomly around the map for this purpose.
  4. Can you guys make a Pull Request for this on gitea?
  5. This has got to be done. I might work with @Stan` and try to do it. Unless someone like @nifa would be willing to take a crack at it.
  6. The German wonder is a destroyed Roman Army Camp by design. There was some thought to create a 'Grove of Fetters' with a sacred palisade, etc., which would be cool. An idea I had for later Germans would be basically a diorama of the Battle of Teutoburg Forest; its aftermath.
  7. I mean, my original design took this into account. Civs without Siege Ships have 'Naval Oxybeles' which grants some crush damage to Arrow Ships. At least they did unless that's been changed. I know you changed a lot from my initial patches.
  8. They wouldn't be 'similar,' they'd fulfill the same 'role' which is "melee ship." A boarding ship would be a fourth option (monkey wrench) outside the RPS. But, this is your show. My show is elsewhere!...
  9. I'm trying to see what techniques I can use to squeeze out the maximum amount of historicity and authenticity. A lot of the minor details will be wrong, but to get a broad stroke of authenticity is what I'm aiming for. Later, perhaps all of the minor details can be ironed out with subsequent iterations as the technology develops. For instance, it would take a few more iterations to get those pleasure cruise motor boats out of the harbor and to stop all of the people on the bottom right from wearing jeans and slacks. lol Not impossible to do already currently, but I decided to move on.
  10. I think there could be some kind of camel unit as a mercenary unit, maybe for a Taxilia faction. It'd be a Bactrian camel though, and we have yet to include a Bactrian camel model into the game (much to my chagrin. Argh!).
  11. My brother in Christ... the fire ships were supposed to be the "ram ships" for those without ramming ships, but you invented something else.
  12. Sure, but that's not what you said. lol But anyway, I agree there should be the ability to sort both ways at the same time.
  13. Look at templates/special/formations/battle_line.xml
