celtic reference
Ultimate Aurelian replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Tutorials, references and art help
Maybe these or the round pattern on cuirasses could be used for Gauls emblem? Since the current round shield is innacurate. Could also have the wheel of Taranis or one of the Gallic coins.- 248 replies

All Civilizations are my favorite.
Ultimate Aurelian replied to wowgetoffyourcellphone's topic in Gameplay Discussion
The Extraordinarii were recruited exclusively from Rome's Itallic allies. So does not make sense as an upgrade for Roman Hastatii. -

This depends on the civ. It would be weird to turn the Machimoi into Greeks, or Roman Citizens into Extraordinari. -
For the timeframe i think Syracusan slingers would be a better option; they were used by Rome in the Punic and Macedonian Wars. Or the Numidian slingers and archers from the siege of Numantia. Some Italic peoples like Ligurians and Picenes used slings; but i am not sure if they fought in the Roman army at the time.

does Himiko count

Personally i think it should only be avaliable to civs that have artillery.

The Pyramid of La Danta, one of the biggest in the world. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirámide_de_La_Danta

I think the building could still exist, but maybe called something other than blacksmith (Crafstman, armory).

I am still on alpha 25

Not sure if it should have furnace. I think metal artifacts were not very common among Mayans, and the first ones date from classical period. Perhaps one of civ bonuses could be that they not use metal resource. But this type of gameplay might be hard to balance.

I downloaded the mod, but can't start a game because of this bug

faction Xiongnu 2.0 (reconsiderations) gameplay
Ultimate Aurelian replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Rise of the East
Possibly they were incorrect in attributing it to Han, a later review of the reconstruction says it was closer to Central Asian style. https://thesanghakommune.org/2017/04/18/tashebinsky-palace-han-chinese-structure-in-russia-1st-century-bce/ This article mentions a theory attributing it to Xin Dynasty based on the writing found on the tiles. -
Maybe nomad civs could have a sort of ''military colony'' building. A settlement that trains slaves and units from their sedentary vassals.

Ultimate Aurelian replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Rise of the East
The Tashebinsky Palace https://siberiantimes.com/home/sent-to-siberia/a-palm-tree-on-mars/ Possibly an example of Xiongnu architecture inspired by Chinese style, others associate it with their ally a Chinese usurper called Lu Fang. -

faction Xiongnu 2.0 (reconsiderations) gameplay
Ultimate Aurelian replied to Lion.Kanzen's topic in Rise of the East
They could have wagon forts. And maybe a tech to unlock the normal defensive buildings (tower, city wall, fortress). They had a capital with white walls. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongwancheng During the battle of Mobei, the Chinese seized the Xiongnu fortress of Zhao Xin; and there are finds of fortresses in Mongolia and Russia associated with Xiongnu. Visually defensive buildings could be made of rammed earth. Maybe painted white, but i think the white city would work better as a wonder. References for earth walls (First one is Baian-Bulag ruins, other references are Chinese) -

Possible material for religious buildings: The Scythian Ares'' cult https://www.academia.edu/11582741/Scythian_sanctuaries_of_Ares_archaeological_date_and_Herodotus_testimonies_in_English_ Kremenivka sanctuary, unlike Herodotus' description it was made of stone. Possibly because of lack of wood in the area, or there was a wooden structure that did not survive. Scythian Sauna Kurgan stelae (Could be cult statue or part of wonder)
