Sundiata Posted August 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) @niektb Ok, I see, but most casual gamers don't use mods so much. And the mods could/should get a whole lot wilder than just adding totally relevant civs that would really be perfect in the vanilla game. In terms of mods, I'm thinking of different time-periods, different gameplay, different aesthetics, different possibilities altogether, like Delenda Est, Ponies Ascendant, Millenium A.D. and Hyrule are currently demonstrating. @wowgetoffyourcellphone: Cult Statues: Spoiler Maybe this belongs in a new thread for building props?

Sundiata Posted August 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 By the way, I still fully support debuting a much more complete Kushite civ in Terra Magna, but I think Terra Magna's real future lies in a focus on Far Eastern civs (by adding Koreans and Steppe-peoples) and Pre-Colombian civs (by adding Mayans and Olmecs).

LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 It can actually be a nice little incubation chamber for full fledged civs. If only we worked like this the whole time we wouldn't be half-releasing civs between alphas. My only issue with that is that the hype is finished before the civ is lol. Seleucids took years to finish 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 @Sundiata Do you think the columns in front of temple 300 at Musawwarat as sufra would be covered by a lintel? they seem a bit far apart for typical Egyptian-style architecture to brave the span.

Sundiata Posted August 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) @LordGood, good question. In temple 300's case, it does indeed seem like a bit of a stretch... In temple 100's case though, in the center of the complex, the entire structure was surrounded by colomns that were probably spanned. You could combine features of both temples, or choose one. I'll leave that to you. Edited August 15, 2017 by Sundiata 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niektb Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 @Sundiata: oh sure! I merely to try to explain the reasoning of others (which you probably noticed by the way I phrased my words ;)) btw, I think this civ probably attracts a lot of people to the mod scene. It's coming along really well! @LordGood: the situation is a tad different though. The other civs really depended on mostly one person. This is more like a team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Columns are too far apart on the plan, well, except for right there where i connected them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Let me see what i can come up with, a full portico looks weird, but that might just be due to the stubbiness of the columns, but Egyptian columns are also notoriously... sausagey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundiata Posted August 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 I'm just nitpicking here, but maybe a teeny weeny Temenos wall (in sections?), reaching around all the way to the ramp, with date-palms planted in-between the walls and the temple, to represent the gardens/holding pens. I know I'm asking a lot, please forgive me This way it would be more like Musawwarat, instead of one temple from Musawwarat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 no problem at all, I did the same with the carthaginian wonder lol. gives it a bit more 'wonder mass' needs it, considering how big the temple of amun is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundiata Posted August 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Apart from the (still optional) merc camps, you've pretty much finished the entire Kushite architecture set... All-round amazing work @LordGood! You can be very proud of yourself! Really... Wow! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGood Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 EZ I think Enrique might be Justus' best bet when it comes to cult statues, last statue I made was one of Enrique's unit models spray painted gold lol. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
