Stupid or minor Quetions

[6th Vigil]

This is a thread for my many stupid or unimportant Questions That hopefully will be answered . Everyone can also ask questions here but i doubt anyone will think of weird questions like me.

[Zenith Darksea]

Well, what are they? Or is this just spam? Mods...

Will the Hoplites be able to use swords as a secondary weapon?

How many hoplites will there be per unit (e.g. 240, 160 etc)?

[spirit_of_rob]

1: This was a glitch in the early versions of Rome that prevented the switch to swords unless it was a phalanx unit. i dont know whether it got fixed or not.

2: It will depend on what unit size you play on and also the unit themselves but i shouldnt think they will be anymore than 240ish on the huge setting

[Lusted]

The early versions of RTw spear sword secondary bug was fixed in 1.3 so you will be able to have hoplites with spears and swords.

[6th Vigil]

so Italian hoplites Include Taras, Croton and Syracuse?

[spirit_of_rob]

Depends on what you mean .

Those are all Greek factions and they are in Italy. If you mean in relation to where i said that Italian Hoplites wont be as strong as their mainland counterparts then yeah they are.

[6th Vigil]

There is just one question the i need to clear up about recruitment. Could u just explain to me how the whole unique hoplites for each city process works?

[Ano2]

Thats easy, its just a aor system. Each city has units that are unique to it. When conquered these units can still be trained, or not be trained, depending on what the team decide.

Its actually a zor system. About the city thing you have it almost right. I think the only units you wont be abel to train are the factions elite units. Other than that you will be abel to recruit its standard hoplites.

Thanks but hav you decided what athenian hoplite template you are using?

[Snevets]

Thanks but hav you decided what athenian hoplite template you are using?

We have many, its going to come down to preference (maybe even yours if we include multiple versions )

[Sparton Matticus]

I have a question... what do you have planned in terms of scripts? And will the mod be heavily scripted or just scripted for specific moments?

[Uranos]

I'm for medium sripting - 4tpy, spawning armies, events, bonus for the stupid AI...

[6th Vigil]

ok here's a pointless question what sword will most hoplites use (e.g Xiphos, Kopis)?

[Snevets]

Well historically the Xiphos was much more common but we just plain like the kopis so it pops up more than it probably should

[milns]

What version of RTW I need to play this mod?

[justme]

I believe it has been stated that it will work on RTW 1.5 or BI 1.6...

I have a stupid question of my own though: it seems that the team has experienced (again?) some internal problems... does this mean that the mod will die?

(please dont let it die, it's number one on my wait list!!! )

[apostate]

-its for BI 1.6

-the one who retired was inactive for the last 2-3 months anyway (and during that time the mod made the biggest progress)

[Uranos]

and during that time the mod made the biggest progress

apo it's because you finally started working
