Apomonomenos

How about for the people who helped create this game (EX me & other forum people) will get an E-mail on when the game is released asking if they want their account to be used for multiplayer. For example, I will get an E-mail asking if i want my WFG account to be the same as the multiplayer for 0 AD so we don't have to make a new account ?

That sounded a little funny

Maybe the option of "Roman" should be changed to "Italian" because, Rome was destroyed at around 483 AD, so no one could be of Roman descent (unless if it was a LONG time ago, and even so it would only be a fraction of the person's nationality), and the fact that a lot of Italian-descent-supporters of 0AD chose Rome because it was the closest because that both countries have the same Peninsula as their mainland and the same Capitol. I'm not saying this to offend anyone, just trying to point out that no one can be mostly of Roman descent.

How about a setting that makes whether no blood, to little blood to a lot of blood ?

@ EmjeR Good idea with attacking & turning But for fishing, the sailor should have to buy his/her own bow/javelin, because it would be irritating to have to defend your fishing boats by using your own men! But for sailing, Triremes were very fast. They would not only use the wind, but have 3 rows of slaves, so it would almost glide on the water.

really? because I only had 1 stronghold and that was stronghold legends, but I didn't no people called it stronghold 2

Or maybe have it was an upgrade, like in AoM as an improvement that will increase defence/attack rating.

I'm pretty sure that there will be camels, but the Mamluke was a Saracan, or Arab, unit, not Persian. The Persians might have had camelry, but they used mostly normal cavalry, elephants and chariots as their cavalry. I don't think there will be a "slave" army, but more of a levy, quickly trained and cheap, but aren't very powerful. Plus, if there was a slave army, I think it would be a revolt for being so low !

I like it that you're trying to help by finding info, but for 500BC it dates around only that year and a little before, and for 500AD it shows little for the game. I just want to point out to you that for wiki, searching years is a little tricky for it shows usually exactly that year/period, and Wiki isn't too reliable because anyone can edit it to place false information.

1) I hope not 2) probably, no. 3) I'm pretty sure ( I'm acting like a magical number 8 ball) @ #1 it's obvious, because no one wants to waist time/resources building drop-off camps for gathering a resource, all thought it would make the game more realistic ( ) @ #2 because imagine a player who kills a villager because of its gender, plus I'm pretty sure that the gender of the villager is as random as a heads or tails coin. @ #3 because imagine a player having 10 grand of resources, but only about 400 points, so when a guy comes to raid the other guy quickly trains an army and makes a fool of the invader, lowering his rating.

I REALLY hope there will be realistic ships in the game. I'm aussi tired of AoM version of shooting arrows at another ship, for god's sake ARROWS DON'T SINK SHIPS!!!!! Even a 1st grader would know that. Also, I'm also tired of the made-up-ships, like the "Hammer-ship" or the "Ballista-ship" (The names of those ships (in the Greek navy) were real names of ships, only of different periods EX the Jauggernaut, it was a cannon ship around the late17th-early18th century, not a ballista bolt-throwing ship around 3rd century BC) And I really want to ram other ships with a trireme and watch other soldiers being flung into their watery grave. Naval battles was such a big part of Military Conquests, that the Romans had fitted their Collesiums to be able to hold water to reinact Great battles!

The Greeks were thought to be the home of homosexuals, but in reality ROME had more homosexuals then Greece did, infact back then no one cared what gender their lover was, but in the Roman country, it was almost that you could have intercourse with anyone, at the public pool, Prostitutes are literaly everywere (Prostitution is the oldest illegal art), and especially in Villas on an island (EX off the coast of Corsica). But I wonder why this question got your attention (I'm not offending you), for why would it matter if a soldier is Strait or Gay?

Those are more of what the text/cheat soldier will say when he/she/it spawns.

(This should really be put on the Topic "Blood?") If ragdoll, be sure to make it NOT entirely rag doll, for in BF2 there is so much ragdoll, that when a soldier jumps and dies (while going up), his body is flung so high that it's almost like an invisible trebouche that killed him! So what I'm saying is that make ragdoll for only when he touches the ground, and make it planned for first dyeing. Like how about we take the death of a hoplite in AoM, the death is normal but when he hits the end of a cliff, he starts rolling. If it's too much ragdoll, then the soldier will flail in an avg death. If there's not enough, it's AoM all over again. If there's too much and poor building ragdoll, it'll be like PS2 path of Neo matrix game, where a guy will get stuck in a wall and start flailing so much that it'll sound like a drum, or it will simply go through the building.

This sounds like Strongholds Legends, were you are able to put soldiers, traps and siege on the walls, but only on specific spots (excluding soldiers)(Traps can only be placed on walls, and siege on a specific tower that is expensive)

Also, I would put in a(n) Other/Notmentioned part of the Poll to people who aren't any, so It won't seem like a big pushover on Celt for guessing that their European (If you ARE celtic, I mean no offence to you. If you're not, well, um, end of Reply!!!)

For me, Hellenes in a heartbeat! I'm half Argos (Don't know what Argos is? Think of Jason and the ARGOnauts) and Half Polish (Poland is a slavic country with a latin alphabet, so Slavic isn't mentioned on it, plus I have more Greek relatives then Polish)

Well, I don't know about removing singleplayer, but I strongly think you should keep both, because what if a player hasn't ever played a Civ Game (slim possibility, but Possible) and they need tutorials? That wouldn't be good for publicity (Think about it, guy 1 says "How was 0 AD?" Guy 2 says "It sucks! There's only multiplayer on it so all the nerds pwn me on multiplayer because that's the only mode!") But that would be sort of good for me if there's only singleplayer. I always get stuck on singleplayer and after about 2-3months on Easy mode I go on multiplayer and get pwned and never play the game until about a year (except if it's really good).

Maybe as the background when looking at scores, like in AoM in multiplayer were you see a Norse dock in the background (Non-expack version)

What I meant is that will there be a type of stable like the Greeks get "Farmer's stable" (or what ever) and they train scouts and trade carts and there also will be a "Government/Military Stable" were those train (Obviously) Military Cavalry, not what I said before. What I said up there was because when I saw that it said "a historicaly acurate" game, I took it a little to far

Let's hope it's not like the Politics during the election of that year, were most polititions don't keep their promises (No offense to either party) Yea, I like that way better then the AoE III Hometown version/bar (In the WC expack) and the Warcraft 3 way, were you have to have a Hero stand next to a Merc building (All of them look the same, regardless of what units are being trained) and the guy just spans there for gold. I like that Idea, but what about their buildings? should they be able to build them or start and stay with what they have? And are the buildings rebuildable if destroyed?

Finaly, some blood! But will it be the same thing as this, because I fell it could be a little better...

So will there be two types of stables or one or varies from faction to faction etc.?

So it'll be like patches?

That's good. Ever since I played CoDIII for wii and found out there wasn't a multiplayer for it, I always got skeptical for multiplayer.
