  5. ===[COMMITTED]=== Seleucid Structures

    in Completed Art Tasks

    Posted · Edited by Tiber7

    Towers could be like in AoM in which you could upgrade wooden towers to watch towers and then to guard tower by using some resources. I think this is cool because you don't have to destroy the previous tower to build the new one, and it's also faster. Per example, Iberians towers are really overpowered compared with the others so I suggest that the 10 men tower should be an upgrade of the age III. I just give my opinion. ^_^

    SentryTowerAoM => WatchTowerAoM => GuardTowerAoM

    Sorry for this little off topic.

    And no, currently it can't produce champions, and in my last patch of it there's no champions, but citizen soldiers and siege weapons. Can build in age 2 cause this is nearly useless in age 3 (I only use it to garrison my champions before I send them).

    I think it's good idea it would make the army camp useful because it isn't for now.

    -The ceasefire is only for you, which means that they can rush on your allies, and you won't be able to help them.

    Bad idea. It's too long and you can't do anything else than watching to your economy for at least 10 turns. It would be better if you use it as a "God power" (and it shouldn't be less than 3 minutes nor more than 5 minutes).

    EDIT: 10 minutes, not 10 turns. I was playing RTW recently ;)

  13. Anglo-Saxon, Old Frankish and Norse names

    in 1,000 A.D.

    Posted · Edited by Tiber7

    The most common roots of Frankish names are these (i had some problems with formatting -_-)

    Spoiler
    Animals   Weapons and War related things Qualities and others
    Arn, Eagle                                     Bert, Axe Adal, Noble
    Bern, Bear        Child, Shield Bald, Daring
    Han, @#$%        Dag, Dagger Bert, Brilliant
    Wulf, Wolf        Frank or Franc, Franc Axe

    Dag, Day

    Hramm, Raven

           Ger ou Gar, Spear

           Hilde, Battle

    Eram ou Ram, Honor

    Gard, Protection

    Eber, Boar        Har, Army General Hard, Strong
             Helm, Helmet Hilp, Help
             Ingel, Sword Hold, Glorious
        Hrod or Ragin, Counselor
        Mer, Great
        Mund, Guardian or Tutor
        Ric, Rich or Powerful
        Rid or Ritter, Knight or Rider
        Sig, Winner or Victor
        Wald, Governor
        Wic or Wig, Battle, Fight or Combat
        Will, Will
        Win, Winner or Getter

    A few examples :

        Bern (Bear) + Hard (Strong) = Bernhard (Strong Bear) which evolved in Bernard

        Adal (Noble) + Bert (Axe) = Adalbert (Noble Axe) which was a current name in the (mostly early) Middle Ages and evolved to Albert

        Ger (Spear) + Hard (Strong) =  Gerhard (Strong Spear) which evolved in Gerard or Gerrard (like the football player :))

        Will (Will) + Bert (Axe) = Willibert  (Voluntary Axe) which was popular too

        Sigis (Variant of Sig only used in some names) + Mund (Guardian) = Sigismund (Victorious Guardian)which is still common mostly written in other ways

        Hilde (Battle) + Gard (Protection) = Hildegard(e) which was a popular female name

     

    The name were given like this :

       The parents first used to give their first root of their name before giving the names for their meanings :

            So if your father was called Willibert and your mother Berthilde, you would have been called Willibert.

    If you want a list of Frank names go here, it's in French but you can still read the names :

    https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_de_prénoms_d'origine_germanique

    And if you want historical great people's name go check the family trees of the Merovingians and the Karlings

    Yes, but it's because Rome did not care of taking Germany because they didn't care of the resources. They judged there was not enough resources to really make war there. Rome have always had a very large numeric superiority (it's true until the late 3rd century AD). Italy was by far the most populated zone of the Mediterranean. So losing 3 legions was not a problem.

    Where do you put Seleucids? They should be in the Levant and Near-East between Macedonia (which is in Asia Minor and Greece) and the Persian empire. They should also have a border with Ptolemaic Egypt in the middle of Judea. I think that, 1st game isn't complete enough to do it, and 2nd you should choose a year for this because there are quite lots of anachronisms and approximations in what you're saying. I still think the idea is good. :victory:

    1. From my brother who founded it on google in 2013.

    2. I love RTS games and this one is already and will be one of the best. It's open source (it's free!!!^_^) and I can contribute to it.

    3. The game should be improved with other play modes. Examples: arcade mode, regicide mode (like in AoE2&3), king of the hill mode(AoE2).

    4. I rejoin Lion.Kanzen on that : mercenary camps, advanced diplomacy, etc. It would be cool to have a map or 2 where the resources like stone or iron are mostly guarded by mercenary camps or brigands fortresses like in AoM (I don't remember the name of the map:search:).

    5. Read my description :P

    The cities of Ur and Uruk were both part of the Seleucid empire, but they had their heyday long before that.

    Uruk was the city of Gilgamesh, king of Uruk. Gilgamesh is the hero of the oldest epic poem which has been found. It tells Gilgamesh's quest for immortality. At the end he founds not immortality but wisdom. Even if I don't find any meaning for the alpha 21 in this, it's still a good idea.

    I found 2 other names :

    Unut : It was an Egyptian snake goddess. She came from the fifteenth Upper Egyptian province and was worshipped with Thoth at its capital Hermopolis (in Egyptian: Wenu). Originally, she had the form of a snake. Later she was depicted with a woman's body and a hare's head. She was taken into the cult of Horus and later of Ra.

    Uneg(or Weneg) : It was a sky and death deity in ancient Egyptian religion, who was said to protect the earth and her inhabitants against the arrival of the "great chaos". Thanks Wikipedia for both descriptions :thumbup:

    I prefer the other propositions I made and I don't see which meaning can be found with this. Also, because there are few names in "U" I still propose them.
