Your deciduous trees need boughs and branches. Otherwise they look super nice. They'd be good for the "middle" trees in a forest.

nahh

Elephants should be killers of cavalry, as they were in almost every military engagement between the two.

I want battles, not Raids R Us RTS simulator. I want to be a military commander, not a pirate.

Battalions.

Trade Routes is made with 0ad assets heavily photoshopped.

Made a new tech portrait, free to use by core game and/or mods. Topic can be used for folks to post any new tech portraits they make or find (cc0 or cc-by-sa). Trade_Routes (made by me, from 0ad assets) Geometric_Masonry (made by me) Aqueducts (fixed by me to have the standard background) "mace_argyraspides" (combine some 0ad icons) Immortals (from 0 ad concept art) Falcata (made by me) Feminine_Mystique (from 0ad concept art) Diaspora (background fixed by me) Some Elephant tech portraits, from 0ad concept art Mining_Pickax (from 0ad assets) Monumental_Architecture (from 0ad concept art)

Yeah, that looks super good. Though, I have noticed a lot of strategy and RPG games looking very similar over the past several years, probably because they use the same popular engines

SSAO is a rendering technique, not the AO maps 0ad uses.

Would look so good with SSAO.

A duration tag could be added to particles. Assuming a lot of these hacks you're talking about are for the gunpowder smoke.

Okay then. Can we get an option to just turn off the specific name? Been asking for this for ages (I think it clutters the UI).

I'm no linguist, but for readability I think it would be best to leave out all of the accents and stuff. So, instead of Hoplítēs Athēnaîos (or whatever it's supposed to be), we have Hoplites Athenaios (Athenian Hoplite).

Great! The inconsistency in the look of the trees and shrubbery (some trees like the Cretan Date Palms look awesome, while others look dreadful) is bothersome to many and hampers the look of the game IMHO.

Nice. Any chance you would take a look at the core game's biome assets and possibly update them?

Hmm, the trample aura works against "enemy" units, and Gaia is an "enemy" of all players.

Hi, most 4 legged animals stand with their feet closer together, specifically the front feet. Example:

Hm?

Which team members care about game design and which don't (no need to build a consensus with folks who have no interest).

I'd imagine that the Celtic houses are so weak that anyone's archers could bring them down pretty easily, not just the Mauryas.

Which ranged units? I haven't really tried hard core balancing much in DE.

I would say maybe "Private" slaves and "State-Owned" slaves? This was a thing in many cultures. One example is that the mines of Laureion, controlled by Athens, were worked by slaves owned by the state. While farms were largely privately owned and worked by privately-owned slaves.

Maybe angle it back slightly (same would go for all scabbards, really)?

Love this, but where is the player color?
