What? It's going to be beta before 2009?

How about Amazons as an editor-only civ? I know it might not be that historically accurate but it would be pretty fun.

Well, not quite on that scale, anyway.

What do you mean, back in AoK times? There's still a die-hard community out there, you know.

I'd even be surprised if it starts before 2009.

Gets a bit complicated and confusing for my tastes, though.

Problem is, I doubt anybody has that extensive a family tree lying around - Everyone would select unknown.

It would be cool if you could enter any old resolution like you can in Glest. I really loved that game filling up my larger-than-normal (though not massive) screen.

Yes by W3 I do mean Warcraft III.

Well, duh. It should also be one of those settings only the host decides. EDIT: Or what if players get to vote on the settings of the game, and if it's a tie, then the host chooses or it's randomized?

good idea - Someone please make a new thread with "unknown" in the poll!

It's just terrain that's made to look like the black area off the map. So, effectively, it's nothing.

Probably not, though it wouldn't hurt to have "barrier" terrain like in W3 (I think that's what they call it).

It'd be cool, catering to the more fussy players

Individually, though the option to train lots at a time has been considered.

Or perhaps that's a setting you can choose for an individual game?

That's another agreeable statement. They'd have infinite use for custom scenarios. However, I don't think they should be createable in random map gameplay.

Ok, my idea was a bit insane. However, you can't go wrong with a good old diamond-shaped map.

agreed. The Romans were so successful in their time because of their organization and machine-like efficiency

Especially if you often play as Romans.

Coooooooooooooooooooooool

And have THAT affect gameplay too?

Are you talking to me or Fionn here? Either way, I understood this concept. Just like the Gauls and Hellenes in Pt I, right?

Weather's something that IMO simply MUST be included in random maps.

I like the idea of all the germanics being sub-factions
