Technically there is no issue with that. The only challenge is finding someone willing to model the advanced houses and making new icons and finding people editing the xml files, testing and pushing the patch.

Because the project is inspired by AoE. https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/0adStory The concept has been chosen a very long time ago: Alpha 10 (2012) Alpha 5 (2011):

Athens Spartans Macedonians Ptolemies Seleucids Romans

That's not correct.

Maybe we should limit even more the right of new accounts, such as prohibiting the creation of threads, removing hyperlinks in their posts (displaying only the raw url), limiting their posts to a few threads (a general thread for bug reporting, a thread for welcoming new members, an off-topic thread...), etc. 24 hours after their first post, we could lift a few limitations and give the possibility to post anywhere. 24 hours after their 5th post, we could authorize the creation of threads. etc. There is also the possibility to create a trap thread. Those fake accounts are generally robots who don't understand the context. We could have a thread that freeze any account for a few hours if it posts something there.

We should add chariots to the Greeks too, see the following evidence: To the Romans too! A four-wheeled chariot!!! Dating to the 2nd century AD furthermore, in Roman Thrace! That's perfect!!! It must have been incredibly practical on the battlefield! Just add two more wheels to the 3D model and we could add a second chariot unique. One with two-wheels and one with four-wheels! Look how cool it would be... ... A big chariot with four-wheels: ... a small chariot on two-wheels:

That's indeed a common issue for people working with databases, when we need to interpret a string variable as an integer or a float number... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_separator

International articles on wikipedia have metric first. Since we are dealing with the history of Europe, Africa and Asia, it is better suited to have metric first at least. For example, on the wikipedia page of ancient rome: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Rome

Due to historical and archaeological evidence, the rotary mill has been removed for the Gauls and Britons.

New alpha of Pax Augusta

I have given my opinion based on the evidence but adding the onager is only a slight divergence from historical accuracy. It is not that bad. So yes. Thats ok. I am not sure an imperial civ will happen in vanilla, due to stubborness, but we can accept this solution.

Reposting this article about different color and shade resulting from various alloys of bronze and different patina. https://exarc.net/issue-2017-2/ea/colour-palette-antique-bronzes-experimental-archaeology-project I made a table with the RGB conversion from the munsell code, this shows the natural colors of different alloys:

Translating ancient Greek precisely is difficult, the exact meaning is often uncertain. Horace White (1899) gives: "Archelaus planted another great tower on the wall opposite the Roman tower and these two assailed each other, discharging all kinds of missiles constantly until Sulla, by means of his catapults, each of which discharged twenty of the heaviest leaden balls at one volley, had killed a large number of the enemy, and had so shaken the tower of Archelaus that it was rendered untenable, and the latter was compelled, by fear of its destruction, to draw it back with all speed." While Philippe Remacle (2010) gives : "Archelaus placed another large tower on the wall opposite the Roman tower, and these two towers fought each other, throwing all sorts of darts incessantly until Sulla, thanks to his catapults which launched twenty leaden balls very heavy each time, killed a large number of enemies and caused the tower of Archelaus to wobble, which it rendered unstable, and Archelaus was obliged, for fear of its collapse, to withdraw it quickly to the rear." It is unclear from the original text if the catapults are throwing twenty balls each time as a whole (one volley of all the machines), or if each catapults are throwing twenty balls every time they are firing (one volley of each machines). However, from the context, I think it is more coherent they are firing 20 lead balls together (one volley of all the machines) as they are weakening the tower.

The argument from Rihll is that the glandes would have been associated to the onager because it looks like a sling and glandes are the name of sling ammunitions. But I strongly disagree. I think it is simply Sulla using lithoboloi with lead projectiles. As Appian could not say that Sulla threw "lead stones" against the tower, he used a word he was familiar with for ammunition made out of lead. Two-armed torsion catapults are generally much better and more precise. It can throw projectiles of more than 70 kg.

Thats not only you, I would prefer an additional Principate faction too. With distinctive features like the segmentata and the onager for them.

You can include two reforms, one from Marius and one from Augustus. The last one introducing the lorica segmentata and the onager. Happy?

The whole article is reviewing the claims of Rihll and is concluding there is little support for it. Personally I am not convinced by the idea that 'glandes' could only have been thrown by Onagers. Honestly I think you are having a confirmation bias in this case, cherry-picking anything supporting its use. While most specialists on the topics expressed the opposing view.
