New SPOR version 8.0

[T.Lexx]

I there a chance to get an update about the status/ activities or the new features?

[lt1956]

Release of new version should be at end of this month.

[T.Lexx]

Thanks for this information.
Good luck for your brilliant work.

[asanovic7]

any preview on 8, lt?

[Leondias]

Is there blood on it? In medieval 2 total war there is blood so it should not be too hard to import it should it. It would be awesome I to have blood on it.

[loet66]

Yeah, greeeat news !!

[themrwho]

AFAIK blood was tested before and is not 'viable' for SPQR so I don't think it'll be in. M2TW engine has unit size limitation which LT dislikes, just one reason why we're still having RTW

[T.Lexx]

Thank you for this mod.
I started a new SPQR 8.0 campaign and immediately i got the typical "SPQR feeling".
The new map is wonderful, the effect for the gameplay a fine tactical addition.
LT-and helpers - you made the best ROME mod.

[lt1956]

Thanks, I know SPQR is now perfect for my playing style and what I wanted from RTW when it came out in 2004. Though I do wish we had sea battles, I would have loved ancient sea battles, better diplomacy, Food Supplies, and Larger Battlefields. But alas they were never meant to be.

Finally tried SPQR...Most excellent!

Are there any new greek units that have been added, i felt that was what the mod really needed

You forgot to activate SPQR script. You need to activate it EVERY time you load a saved game.

[Pius]

Many thanks for the help I will remember to do so from now on.
I think SPQR is the best Ancient Roman Game created many thanks to all who contributed to its creation.

One more question about the marian reforms: the readme says that you have to destroy carthage and own their lands. Do I still have to build imperial palaces to trigger them like in previous versions? Can you give me a list of all regions that must be captured from Carthage?

You will need imperial palace or royal palace in there cities and wait it out, i think it's more or less some time frame that you will need to pass to trigger the reforms. Time frame + all carthaginian regions.

List of cities

Carthago ----------------- Carali
Lilybeon ------------------ Locus Garamantes
Valencia ------------------ Hadrumentum
Gades -------------------- Leptis Magna
Tingis -------------------- Carthago Nova
Rusicade ----------------- Sitifis
Taras -------------------- IoL

Hey,
I've got a question.
What do you mean by a time frame? Like you need to pass some specific date before you can get the Reforms even though you have fulfilled the Carthaginian Region and Palace criteria?

I've got all the Carthaginian cities and palaces, just waiting for the population to increase (exterminated Gades ), and am at 155BC. Currently sending my peasant armies to increase its population, should be done by 154BC, so is that date early enough for the reforms?

Thanks .
