Paal_101 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 (edited) After an obscenely long period of 31 days without a news update, Wildfire Games is proud to break its silence and announce a new team member from Kansas City, programmer Corin Schedler a.k.a. triumvir. Corin will assist with the entity and gameplay features of 0 A.D. "Corin" is an appropriate name to hold in 0 A.D. for the name is the French version of the Roman name Quirinus, the Sabine name for the God of War, Mars, and directly translated means "spear". That said, a most hearty welcome, Corin, to the Wildfire Games community and the development team! We look forward to working with you!Next, Michael has prepared an awesome game feature showcasing the Charge Ability available to various units within 0 A.D. In particular, the Celts are featured in the showcase as a tribute to their famous headlong charges into combat. Check the Showcase Gallery regularly for new gameplay features. Kudos to Michael on an excellent job![img center]http://www.wildfiregames.com/~art/showcase/showcase-gameplay-charging-004(thumb).jpg[/img center]Check out the fullsize artwork and detailed information on this ability here.History articles have appeared in increasing quantity in the last few weeks. Joshua has produced some excellent articles covering such topics as the epic twin battles of Plataea and Mycale during the Greco-Persian War and a biographical portrait of one of Rome’s most unconquerable opponents, Mithradates VI of Pontus. In addition my own series of articles on ancient combat has been expanded by the addition of articles covering Armor and Weapons. Keep an eye out for more articles in the near future from the 0 A.D. History Department as new documents are always in the works. Edited June 19, 2006 by Paal_101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassius Allanus Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 "Corin" meaning spear reminds me of the Old Norse cognate (which is thusly phonetically similar) geirr. Anyway, welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
