  1. Yeah. The Iberians. That is also a problem that i see. I spent some thoughts on the possibility to replace the Celtic Campaign with an Iberian one.

    Pro Iberian:

    - a VERY unique civ, never seen or heard of any game that included them

    - defensive guerilla tactics, as described, could be used to design some challenging scenarios

    Pro Celtic:

    - temperate setting (despite Iberians, who would again, as Greeks and Romans do, live in the Mediterranean)

    - completely different style (each civ has, but especially this one)

    - well, lets say, some kind of personal love for the Celtic culture (y)

    I ended up choosing the Celtic variant, because i saw an oppurtunity to include the Iberians into the Punic Wars Campaign, though i am not satisfied altogether with that solution.

    Another possibility:

    A fourth Iberian campaign. But that would mean, we have essentially the same ground theme as in the Celtic Campaign, which is rebellion - and again, against Romans ...

    Edit:

    The other thread is witnessed.:P

    @Moderation: Any possibility to merge those two threads since they cover the same topic?

  2. Hi everyone,

    recently i have applied for the post of a scenario designer for 0 A.D. I'm not quite sure yet if the developers will take me, but it sounded not too unpromising. Since the game is not in the state yet to start working on campaigns, i am currently making plans for campaigns. I open this thread for me to present you my ideas and for you to post your own ideas, suggestions etc.

    General:

    I suggest three major campaigns plus one tutorial campaign where you learn the basics of the game. Each of the major campaigns will have a decent size, at the moment i figured 12 scenarios for each.

    The campaigns increase in difficulty the later they are dated. The ambition is to include every faction of the game in the three campaigns, as a player culture or as allies and foes.

    Tutorial - The Rise of Athens

    Period: ~800 - 480 B.C.

    Civ: Hellenic/Poleis

    Overview: The player learns the basics of the game while he is building up the great city of Athens from its beginnig in Greek's dark age to the time of the Persian Wars.

    ---

    Campaign 1 - Alexander The Great

    Period: 338 - 323 B.C.

    Civ: Hellenic/Macedonian

    Overview: Follow Alexander on his quest to conquer the Persian Empire ... and beyond.

    ---

    Campaign 2 - The Punic Wars

    Period: 264 - 201 B.C.

    Civ: Roman

    Overview: Covers the first and the second Punic War on the Roman side.

    ---

    Campaign 3 - The Queen of Britain

    Period: 60 - 61 A.D.

    Civ: Celtic/Britons

    Overview: The uprising of the Britain Celts against Rome under Boadicea (Boudicca). Presumably with a "happy ending", which means eventual victory, though historically the uprising was crushed.

    These are my ideas, i have worked out the first campaign (Alexander) quite far. Now, what are your ideas? What do you want to see in a campaign for 0 A.D.? Maybe something completely different?

    Greetings,
