    What in the units would you want to see improved. The map... the cities have yet to have their building lists finalized... I wanna add some things and increase costs for ports seeing they're too cheap..

    (Try it on VH/VH and you'll be shocked at how brutal the AI gets )

    i just tried it VH/VH with Thebes and did all the battles automatically for speed and i noticed that it was very challenging. perhaps because it was my first campaign and i did not know the location of the nearby cities. now i control a big part of the map, but i have problem with cash. i am certain that if i did the battles manually it would be easier ( i am a great general )

    4-5 turns later:
    and athenians are long dead and spartans pay for their treachery.

    Well, yes, the units aren't a radical departure from anything in vanilla, but some people like it that way, and it takes a lot more work to make it radically different.

    Hard/Hard is good. I feel there's too many AI bonuses at VeryHard/VeryHard. Anywho, does anybody find there's too much general fighting? We're trying to create more limited wars for the next version, not a free-for all.

    Congragulations, years searching for a greek states mod and this release is exellent may you should get diferent skins because the hoplites of the diferent states are very similar
    also may you can extend the map a little more to the north to thessaly and aetolia or to the west yo syracuse and tarantine
    a persian invasion event would be sweet
    now i'm trying putting kla's hoplites to the mod

    The next release or so will have scripted events. No promises as to what this includes (after all, many of them will probably be story events), and we want them to be suprises at this juncture.

    May I ask what city-states in particular you want included in the next releases?

    Well, yes, but I think in general, sensibility would be better. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    But the mod starts in 360 B.C. and focuses on the Peloponnese. Aetolia and Thessaly can hardly be added!

    But Aetolia is close to the peleponessus if the map is only concentred in that region the faction list will be very short
    if only the map can be extended a little more to the north you guys can put a lot of new factions
    i have a new idea why dont put units and polis original names like :hmmm:
    greek archer - Toxotai
    Tebes - Tebai

    As much as this mod has outside appeal, it is designed around a story. Such factions don't come to play in the story... The map for this mod is not going to be expanded northwards. It's designed around the Peloponnese in 360, as was already mentioned, so Thessally is was out, and we're not expanding the map. This is the beta - after this point, we're removing bugs, adding features, and then releasing a final. Adding an entire faction is way out. It was just out of curiousity I was asking what factions you would like to see.

    Unit names are a very minor part of the game, and as such, not our primary concern. Most people, to be honest, don't give them a second thought.
