A while back, a mod was made by @s0600204... which implemented a civ selection screen. It's now way out of date, but it worked when it wasn't out of date:
Basically you could sort civs by various criteria (given in the civ.json files), and selecting the civ icon gave you a bunch of information about it. If extended, such a screen could let the player choose randomization options, such as choosing to play a civ of the "Greek" culture, but then letting the game choose which one for you. Likewise geographically or time frame or whatever.
Perhaps something like this, but better of course:

Another aspect of the game that could use some general improvement is the look and layout of the tooltips in the game. Currently, it seems that the tooltips keep getting loaded up with extra information making them look worse and worse. I think it's time to step back and redesign their look. Here is something that could look nice for a "basic" tooltip:
A "detailed" tooltip layout could follow similar designs.

So, this has been discussed in the past, but no conclusions were ever made and thus no decisions made on the design level. I think the loading screen could use some improvement, because right now it is rather static. Here is an old concept for some loading screen improvements (but is not a coherent design by any means) that I once found on the forums:
Another idea I had was to have the current design with the "tips" but either have the tips rotate automatically every 10 seconds as the map loads or there can be left and right arrows that lets the player cycle/scroll through them at their leisure as they wait for the match to load.
But most assuredly, I think the general aesthetics of the loading screen could definitely be improved.

Thinking about anything like that?

I would say post a list of units/buildings, their current names, and then your corrections.

I need your opinion on these, @Genava55
The "skirt length" of chain mail should be rather short.

Yes.

Sure. Any size you'd want in priority ?
I think it would be nice to make some that fit the wonder footprints, for a start.

I was talking about making the real world wonder of the Pharos lighthouse the actual wonder of the ptolemaic civ - just a huge accurate version of the small "pharos lighthouse" now in the game. They built smaller lighthouses in the same style, and we have a still-standing funerary monument that is a miniature Pharos, at "Abusir".
I think there was a lot of discussion about this in the day. I like the Temple of Edfu as their wonder. That way you don't have players building a "lighthouse" in the middle of desert or something.

I would like the Gate of All Nations to finally be made the Persian wonder.

Update the Arabic units (Nabataean Camel Archer, Arab Javelineer) with props and textures. They currently use Persian assets.

That would indeed work nicely for Carthage. I think it should sit more naturally on his head though.

Beginning of a match is generally around 50-60 fps and it just gets worse from there, with or without the patch. I'll try it with 6 threads and see how it goes.
New laptop. Game starts at 140 fps and ends up at 60 fps about an hour later. lol

@wowgetoffyourcellphone some iberians use the celtic berru type helmets too ?
Yeah since the game's Iberians are an amalgamation of the Celti-Iberians, Iberians, Lusitanians, et al.

Perhaps some feather variants?

Hi, I've looked through all the buildings and can't find a research option for flaming javelins. I know that there's a champion that has them by default, but I wan't my skirmishers to be able to use them. I have skirmishers with elite rank and they still do not have flaming javelins. Any help would be great.
Delenda Est mod has Flaming Pitch as a technology.
This gives your javelin dudes flaming javelins.

Would it be possible to add some more gravitas to the male sounds? I realize these may be recorded by a young man, so it might be difficult to get a more mature sound for the voices, but I think that would help. I think the Persian voices could be a little louder compared to the Greek ones, but that can be controlled from the XML files very easily. It's great to hear more languages in the game!

So its good to have them (blue and red) but just doesn't use it yet.
Oh yeah, it would be great to have the assets regardless of my objections. lol

An embellished version of the Aigai Palace could be the Macedonian wonder...
