Stan` Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Maybe the dock shouldn't be a temple styled building ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcelmare Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 The dock makes me think about pegasi architecture, in your ponies mod  but I think it's pretty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) My major critique of your buildings is you make roofs bendy like a kids game (AOEO). Try to match style of other civs mang.  Other than that your directions is good. For the dock, maybe put a trading ship and some upturned fishing boats? Blacksmith could have less of a wall, since others aren't so blocked off from the outside world. The corral is super good (probably the 1 or 2 building where a bendy roof is justified, is more rustic).  I have no problem with the "temple" style in the back of the dock. Look at the Athens shipsheds in Piraeus (they use pseudo-temple style). Maybe these columns can be wooden versions of the ionic column.

LordGood Posted May 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I was using the Greek docks as examples, they have their ordered columns supporting the roof over the bays. I wanted to keep it open enough for a breeze, and so the dockyard workers have room to move around. Perhaps using piers instead of columns? The bendy roofs aren't a choice borne of style either, rural buildings' roofs sag, I'd imagine tiled roofs especially. Those are extremes I've already set with the farmstead, they shouldn't get any saggier than that. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem with that since Greek dock look like it get ideas from Piraeus ship shed. The bendy roofs are fine for rural building. I jusy see it elsewhere in the set too which made me think you made stylistic choice for whole set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcelmare Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 As far as I'm concerned, the seleucid building set is one of my favorite so far (in my top 3 actually, with mauryans being the first, and ptolemies being second) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Corrals may need redesign if you guys really want sheep and horses and other animal to show up when captured and coprralled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcelmare Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Lordgood, will you keep the temple-like building for the dock? Personally, I like it...It gives a sense of luxury/refinement fitting the hellenistic period... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put attention to the concept is more like that, the market and dock are equivalent one by land one by sea but the dock is equivalent for barrack to...but in the sea. that you guys called temple style sometimes is know as peristyle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peristyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcelmare Posted May 28, 2016 Report Share Posted May 28, 2016 Well, I called it a temple, not because of the columns, but because of the roof, and the pediment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
