    Thanks guys, always sweet to hear
    But a mod is not only units or graphical environment. The biggest part (the most difficult and frustrating) is still coding.
    The next release, i hope, will bring to the campaigns a wider range of strategic choices.
    There's a boulevard for improvements : Some examples : traits and ancilliaries, scripted campaign, etc.
    3d models are not lodded or not have a proper sprite. Less a problem than four years ago, as a result of the computing capabilities major increase.

    Yup.
    The Royal Barrack and the Royal Arsenal were the only non-vanilla buildings in catw since a year or so... They are not cheap as you can understand...
    For more information, only the macedonian and egyptians could built the royal arsenal, which unlock many huge warships like the famous tesseracontere and the "20", monsters at sea, but of a real dubious military use...

    I'd love to see a Batavian or a Frisian faction instead of the Bellovacii.

    That would be fine, but i would have needed some realistic local units, to do a true specific faction, not celtic nor germanic... BTW Batavians and Belgians are somewhat closely related...

    Wait, is there still development on this mod?

    Great! I thought it had died out. I can't even remember which was the version that I had tried out.
    Linky linky to my last.fm profile! Clicky clicky! If you like anything that ranges from breakbeat to downtempo/chillout, from house to drum & bass, you might find something new in between! (Artist suggestions are more than welcome )

    Not on the faction, at least for the moment.
    The development is done just by me, so it takes the time i can spare for it.
    That's why it is sooooooooooooooooo slow.

    Why not use a T&A system that has been already created? Is it absolutely necessary to make everything from scratch? Because someone might have already done something quite similar to what you want to have in this mod

    Well, it's preferable of course, to use one already existing, but the work on it would be anyway to makes it fit (for example the romans brutii are now illyrians, and the romans senate, Boians), and to find really culturally specific traits and ancillaries. So it's even more a research work than pure modding... Perhaps i would search towards XGM-XC ?

    Ok, i send you a PM for details, welcome on board (et si tu parle français en plus c'est parfait)^^...
