I think with Delenda Est's new hero dynamics plus all the other mod specific features, I think adding attrition is a step too far. Though, it would make a great nuanced change or addition to "no rush" match setup options. A mid ground between pure ceasefire and no ceasefire. So, a timed thing, like ceasefire, that would discouraged rushing for a limited time for players who would want that.

Indeed. I was thinking of some kind of income rate versus/minus expenses display. Similar to Rise of Nations.

Thank you for the kind words. For the past couple of months, work on the mod has stalled due to work commitments and other "hobbies". Specifically, I want to complete work on the new hero mechanics before I add anything else new. Though, I do like the idea of "freeing" slaves and could be a nice way to save your skin if too many of your Citizens get murdered. I will probably add that feature. About negative food trickle and things like that, I once implemented it but took it out because I felt it was confusing without corresponding relevant UI changes and improvements to properly support it.

A prop? Seems small enough of a detail to be texture only. Unless you mean for him to bake a nice normal map, in which case I heartily approve.

I've realized you missed a big detail. The bronze belts they wore.

The AI basically has no idea how to play the mod, sadly.

In DE I've basically made them an uber battlefield unit. They are still decent against buildings because of their high hack damage, but they cause no crush damage anymore, which reduces their prevalence as "siege" units.

Awesome work. I especially like the tunic on the right.

Let's make my fight game idea bro

You're in luck. That feature is implemented for the upcoming Alpha 24.

If we had battalions these could be the merc hoplites' officers for sure.

Most players outside this forum won't know what "Odrysians" are, so I think Thracians works best, just based on the Odrysian kingdom and also some traditional Thracian units as your roster indicates. Thracians and especially Dacians should for sure be added. I will reiterate my opinion that Empires Ascendant should just go ahead and add the later "Part 2" civs to the game. "Part 2" being so far away, it would essentially be its own game and then you might as well go with a different time period, like Medieval or Bronze Age.

Mod: DELENDA EST.

Player color? Lol On DE they do look different, so... ?

I could see something like: Spartan hoplites +10% health, +10% train time. Athenian hoplites +10% speed, -1 armor. Theban hoplites +10% attack, +10% cost. Etc.

Stock Picker 7000... lol

That puts Alpha 25 somewhere in 2025. Excellent!

True, but a part of public relations, especially with a project of this kind, is education. People can be educated about how and why things work, and this engages them. Also, any post, no matter how technical, tells the fans or potential fans that progress continues.

Honestly, at most each of those weapons should only need about 3 variants for proper visual variation.

This is very handy. It seems clear now that the Apadana should be upgraded to the Wonder. The columns are more visible than I thought (had to see the building from an "RTS" angle to make sure). The current Apadana special building could maybe be renamed to Tachara and still used for its current purpose or relegated to an Atlas structure.

I think the only type of terrain that it's worth using parallax is cliffs or chunky rock textures. That's about it.

As worded it is essentially a cc0 license. We can attribute anyway since the project in general is pro attribution.

You should try Delenda Est. It changes just about everything, so should give you delight in figuring your rankings.

lol, who determines what goes in the game? You?
