Back then, charts were all the rage.

Indeed. I was simply supplying context.

Certainly, the Seleucids had quinqueremes though (or the technology to build them). You could just put a limit on them, or unlock, or make them more expensive.

Originally, war elephants were a replacement for battering rams, so they wouldn't count as Champions. That's all changed though.

The Royal Stoa needs to go.

@Stan` got a link?

Demetrius?

Nice fix! He could probably use some sleeves poking out the sides or something.

Indeed, zebra pelt on a Gaul, notsogood.

Lol this is brilliant

There's no guarantee this would happen with 0 ad's implementation. Why would you assume so?

Lots of great stuff, especially from the 1st link! Wow.

Above the minimap.

Interesting analysis , but I really doubt lag comes from decaying dead units. It's most likely that it's pathfinding. Late game has tons of units, so pathfinding calculations grow exponentially.

@Bigtiger

Top one looks pretty Hellenic. Middle one looks Hellenistic. Bottom one looks Hallenistic/Thracian.

A new one. A few are close, but no cigar. Plus it would be great to make a terrain of the same texture.

I always thought if someone did a Triumvirate faction, this could be the Wonder.

If we had battalions, the Immortals, aka Anusiya, battalion could have a feature where they have soldiers get replaced for free, even during combat, at some specified rate (other battalions have to be idle and within range of a barracks to receive replacements). Along with a weapon switching ability (from spear to bow). Weapon switching would be a lot easier to manage if you only have 30 battalions instead of 300 individual soldiers. Persian Archer battalions could have the Shield Wall formation where they setup rows of spara shields for extra defense. But regarding Spartiates, in DE the Spartan player starts with 1 Spartiate as their special starting unit. Then you can train more in Town Phase (but limited), and then an unlimited number later. They're super strong when fully upgraded. If we had battalions I'd change this a little bit. Maybe give them an Ephor ("Magistrate") special starting unit or something, then allow them to train 1 battalion of Spartiates in Town Phase, 5 in City Phase, and 10 in Empire phase. They'd have the Phalanx/Locked Shields formation. Individual soldiers within the battalion would switch to sword if attacked from behind (pike battalions would act similarly).
