Mythos_Ruler Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) I definitely think the Gate of All Nations should be the Persian Wonder. We'll keep the Hanging Gardens of Babylon for either Atlas purposes or some kind of "capture the monument" gametype. http://www.persepoli...all_nations.htm Quote The Grand Stairway, the Gate of All Nations, the Avenue of the Army and the Throne Hall are all parts of a concept. Together they form the processional route of the army from the level of Marv-Dasht to the Throne Hall and back. One can vividly imagine the formations of soldiers marching between the Throne Hall and the Army Gatehouse and further through to the Gatehouse flanked by the huge carved stone bulls of the southern portal, then through this building and exiting through the north portal and into the arrow-straight Avenue of the Army heading west toward the Gate of All Nations - there greeted by the huge winged bulls with human faces. From the exterior of the grounds on the level of the Marv-Dasht an observer would be offered an impressive display: the "Immortals" marching through the stone bull guarded west portal of the Gate of All Nations and on to the Grand Stairway. Here, the rows of soldiers would split left and right marching down the seven meter wide stairs in perfect step with the drumbeat. Upon arrival at the mid landing they would turn 180 degrees and rejoin into single rows. With their colorful clothing and banners and the sunlight reflecting off of their armour they would have resembled two slow flowing rivers splitting and then reuniting. ...

Enrique Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'd like to give a try with this one... By the looks of it it's possible to reuse a lot of persian assets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s1lence Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I think it would be kinda odd to have a big old stairway to nowhere as the wonder. The hanging gardens are much more widley known as well.It could be usefull for the scenario editor though if somebody wished to build persepolis.

Lion.Kanzen Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Is only a square building, not all Persepolis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pureon Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 By the looks of it it's possible to reuse a lot of persian assets...Yeah many of my Persian models were based on Persepolis reconstructions, so the similarities should be there.Good luck with it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 this can give more idea of size of the Wonder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) What have been chosen at the end ? We have the babylonian gardens, do we still need that gate ? If not, 3D Task List should be updated. Edited July 16, 2014 by stanislas69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrique Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Oh, I started working on this one back when this thread came up, but I didn't finish it because I started working on higher priority things.I reused several assets from Pureon's awesome persian buildings.It needs the human-headed-winged-bulls in the back gate and eyecandy everywhere. I'll upload the blendfile if someone wants to finish it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundiata Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 The model looks very promising! I like it very much. Perhaps the back side should have an opening, so we can imagine the flow of people passing from one side to the other (a smaller staircase to the back).

Lion.Kanzen Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 May be needs new texturing, don't look so much different from the others buildings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescio Posted May 31, 2019 Report Share Posted May 31, 2019 To start with, I'm fully in favour of having the Hanging Gardens of Babylon replaced with something Persian. Maybe you should start a Babylonian architecture set (Hanging Gardens, Ishtar Gate, etc.). And remove Persian details (lion tile is Babylonian, flanking men are Persian): However, I'm not convinced the Gate of All Nations would be a suitable wonder. It is, in fact, already present in game: the Persian hall, where you can recruit Kardakes and elephant champions (it could use some improvements, though). Moreover, it's actually one of the smallest structures (only four columns inside) of the Persepolis palace complex: https://www.livius.org/articles/place/persepolis/persepolis-photos/persepolis-terrace/ https://oi.uchicago.edu/collections/photographic-archives/persepolis/persepolis-terrace-architecture-reliefs-and-finds So if someone is ambitious, why not try your hand at the very large hundred column hall of Artaxerxes (cyan) or the even larger adapana of Darius (red)? (I'm not sure what 0 A.D.'s current Adapana is supposed to be.) Separately, it would be nice to have the tomb of Cyrus, still standing after 2500 years; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomb_of_Cyrus for images. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
