  1. dude, its a game not a mod... anymore, if it was a mod, you would be totally justified to claim it dead or almost dead, but its a game and a game takes a lot of time to create, not only that but its an indie game with no official budget, so what i am tring to say is patience it will not die, until mythos or some one else comes here and destroy everthing i just wrote
  2. nice but how are you planning on making maps and cities?? im assuming that with the size of armies your doing and the historical accuracy your want to have the cities will in a way be like in Total War am i right?? at least in size, with your 2-d aproach though i doubt map sizes will be much of a problem...
  3. Me?? the persians, i was never much of a fan of them, but with your grafic appeal and there great variety of units, they should be a fun gameplay experience, then greeks and then Celts, Romans and finally iberians, i doubt i will use carthaganians.
  4. Well theres no Aztecs here so Roman??? maybe iberian... maybe both
  5. hmm looks like the kind of game that would be a hit.... is it by any chance free??
  6. because @#$% isnt an insult its part of our anatomy
  7. given the small disapointment i had when i saw shoguns hellenic warfare article, that given the amount of troops probably available per game i assume it would be better of as an RTS, although a few RTT features would be nice. in deed it does ''sux'' @#$% you, @#$%, @#$%, @#$%, idiot, moron hmmmm only the last three are visible, guess i will have to settle
  8. those d@mn arrows are driving me insane , but none the less you underestimate the legionaries tough to the bone and their training could be almost as brutal as the war itself (no death, but you get the picture), and on contrare Rome would have it easier too get troops and replacements and the chinese would have a harder time recruiting men, why?? well why was it so stable for such a long time? because they had something to offer to the conquered men, you become a soldier for a certain amount of time and at the end of their service they would be granted Roman citizenship and all its privileges, as for the chinese most of the recruited men from conquered territories where forced, and i doubt they would fight at there fullest assuming they didnt try to abandon. and last but not least remember the quinquereme, i can assume that its a bit easier to replicate crossbows than quinqueremes, i rest my case.
  9. to avoid cussing i guess, i tried that precise word to
  10. As before, we simply don't know. Kotakk, an author I'm reading in Anthropology, has a map that features countries like Israel, Jordan, and Lebanon as a possible "Hybrid" or "highly interactive" zone between the two groups. the neanderthalis actualy went that south???
  11. shame, i to wanted to be an archeologist but yeah its hard, i wonder if theres any good jobs around that area, ya'know history and archeology, but hey i got 2 and a half years till i go to university sooo... about the Neandertal hows bout they bieng some kind of nomad, horde style faction, or maybe a like rebel or gaia faction??
  12. we'll see, well first off the roman were more disciplined than the chinese infantry of the time, yes the crossbows may cause many casualties but its not like they go through like a 50 cal. the scutum may be able to sustain a few arrows of the crossbow, and dont underestimate roman archer auxila which i remember always acompanied a legion, and finaly although the han had way superior cavalry, well let me put it this way, its probable they try to charge the flanks of the cohorts, im sure the archers would pick off a few, then the legionaries would give them a hard time while the roman cavalry auxila charge and corners the han cavalry, of course this is all assumption. ROMA VICTOR!! <---- wow look at them still, like rocks, now thats discipline
  13. yeah i made a mistake ooops, im dumb, what i ment is han dynasty from china, after the death of the first emperor qin
  14. yep its a debate but its also a game to, just to have fun and learn someting while we are here, whats this game?? well the tipical ''what if'' battle game, like what would happen if X confronted X, so what are the rules: 1.- there will be 2 selected factions or nations or whatever that must match tecnologically. 2.- establish where and why they would possibly confront. 3.- any person can defend there selected nation, and if possible give information on why they would do this or that. 4.- no bashing, a bit of provocative stuff maybe but remember that on internet you cant really tell if its insulting or not. how this will go out however is up to you guys, personally i propose to give this like i dont know 2 weeks maybe and then make a fictional scenerio on what would happen , and then pass on to the next so i will leave that up to you. So if we agree on that, i would like to propose on the first match bieng the classic Roman empire at its fullest vs Han empire at its fullest, so if you are interested choose and show your arguments.
  15. there are a tiny amount of horses though, and every corner cr@ppy reggueton music, at least where i live
  16. A Panzer tank and a Sherman tank !!!!!! and a american and german ww2 soldier that traveled back in time because of a malfunctiun in hitlers time machine and now work together to survive in ancient times !!!!!!! lol
  17. well there should be one mode that includes it. how will the seiges be implemented? im thinking maybe that if its gonna be through provinces, once you have covered enough territories or provinces all the enemy troops will gather as much resources as they can and retreat into there city and you have to commence a seige, to a seige like this i see two ways of victory one that the enemy surrenders once it has no troops and no recourses and you have the choice to accept its surrender or keep the seige going until you brake into the city, the other one is to seige till theres nothing left, or maybe to destroy a certain building inside there could be many possible victory conditionns, and the enemy has a chaance to brake the seige, although again it should be a random map mode, maybe called seige??
  18. yeah a saboteur of some sort,and make the villigers run pointlessly well i was thinking more like a local milicia of male villegers, nothing too dangerous but enough to distract and such maybe joining with the opponent, and depending on which army iis there or depending on the circumstances the province can be conquered by the enemy ny the revolters joining, reconquerd by you or independent although i think that adding an extra opponent wouldnt really be that fun and well whats the point in making a revolt if it doesnt benefit you, given you have one more opponent to beat. not nessesarily civil war.
  19. Okay here is my little contribution, hows about this, the revolt thing sounds fun, so i think, in aok there where diferent ways of playing standard games like conquest, king of th hill blablabla, the point is if the game applies this there should be one of those in which at a late point of evolution in the game (cause i have understood that there are no epochs) you can get a very expensive unit sort of like a monk, maybe called a briber and you can send to some sort of town center in the province (like ron, you need to build some sort of building to establish in the province), he WONT be invisible to the enemy raidar so ha can be killed, so you use strategy and send an army to entertain while the briber goes there enters the town center and it loads a while. the enemy is know warned that there is a revolter or something or maybe not and BOOM a revolution comanded by your enemy or independent, people should be warned though so some sort of counter meassure should be taken. You should defenitly consider that type of game play, maybe in a conquest type gameplay where you can do anything to win
  20. hmmmmmm the most hardcore group? well id hate to choose only one but out of three i got i will choose the one that has not been mencioned: Hittita empire cause of there defensive cities and formidable force i mean seriusly have you seen hattusha, hell im thinking that it is probably the most fortified strategicly placed city(militarily) in history, they were estrict with rules of solidarity and protection and the only thing that took them down even when surounded by other 3 empires(Egypt in its prime, assyrian empire and babilons) was a civil war when there code of brotherhood was broken by the king and his brother.
