**ByzantineCaesar** · January 30, 2011, 03:42 PM

i think it is a perfect place for calvary in BC because of desert calvary can make many manoeures.. i like fighing in deserts but not while desert storm :| imamate is great faction to play if you want to expand your economics and test your skills in economic growth.. also imamate has not very strong units and it is a chanse to test your skills against stronger enemy..

This has been discussed before, I brought it up so I don't want to harp on it. But the BC map is not that pleasing to look at. It needs some work, some color, some olive groves and fig trees, pastures and more greenery all over.

If you're looking at improving Arabia, that would be my main thing to focus on, especially since much of it is indeed desert -- the places that are not desert there need work all the more! Or else were looking at an ugly, barren colorless expanse for hours on end.

thats really great !

Yeah I was wondering on why you can't cross Arabia, I think this could be changed depending on the geographical difficulties in real life, if some parts of the Arabian desert cannot be crossed then fine but I'm sure that's not the case, maybe it should be that only the Arabic factions can cross through Arabia, that would be an interesting twist and probably accurate, in fact the early muslims of the Rashidun era would fight whenever possible with their backs to the desert so if they had to retreat the enemy could not pursue them.

I recently read a book about first 100 years of Islam and there I find the info.

you should add tabuk city and make alrub al khali (الربع الخالي) (empty quarter) the only part of arabia that is impasible

Any way to add the attrition seen in Napoleon Total war, but have it for the desert? Any unit that strays too far from a city, or road, should suffer massive attrition losses, except indigious troops, probably only the camel mounted troops should be immune.

Great mod, played it about a year ago as several factions and started another round this weekend. The Khan and his hordes are on their way....
