[Preview] Map of the Main Campaign

[Giorgios]

Re Giorgo ,i mean that the map looks to me like that from the BC mod,same region on earth,thats what i mean

Oh I see. Yeah, it's vaguely similar I suppose, though BC goes further to the East, and EoR goes further to the West. Still, this is a game with "East" in the title- if you don't like games with an Eastern setting, why on earth are you in this forum?

no i dont have anything against the ''East'' heheh.i see now it includes some of Italy and north africa too.No,i would probably like BC too,its not about the map at all.What i didnt like in BC was the similarities in most eastern factions and this cursed ''garrison script''.Anyway thanks for not including it in to the game.I have a feeling this mod will be very good,1 last question,are any factions gonna have important similarities(im talking mostly about the units)because ok i now there will be(and its good)but too many(like 4 or 5 factions)having most units the same it would be kinda boring.

Yes, the Slavic tribes... Like "Sclavenoi" and "Antes"...

[Harith]

I wanna know how important cities such as cetsiphon, kufa and Alexanderia will be (if included)?

[DevrimJan]

Well, Ctesiphon was the capital of the Sassanids, so it will be an important city, not so sure about the others though.

[Deutschland]

Certain cities will be strongholds with extra economic income and advanced recrutment. You dont wanna lose these...

Well, we working on sth now... I hope soon with this......

[Toho]

at the rate that it is going right now (at 35%) from (the 33%) last month then i guess this mod will be released in a 2013ish.
im not a team member of this mod but i am on working on two other mods so i guess with the amount of info i see from all these previews this is the best estimate i can give.

[Basileus Antiochus]

(Too bad, the world has ended already...) Just can't wait for this mod

Unit made by: Auto - Nabishtam
Minor details on their skin by: Alkimachos

[AnthoniusII]

Nice start...I would sugest a Frankestein way of creating unique models.
Go and download Rusichi mod.
Chop,bodies ,arms,heads weapons etc and create everything that could fit to the mod.
See what you can't do and create it or aply to some who did already.
We -as CBUR- could sent a couple helmets made by Lord_Calidor for CBUR when you will have more progress going on.
An advice. Peseants whore tunic scimilar in shape all around the world.
Trousers or "naked" legs though is an other matter.
So you do not have to do diferent models for each faction's peseants or armored unit. Create some basic models and attach accessories on them
to create what ever you need.

[Alkimachos]

Thanks for the advice Αντώνιε. Btw, they're spearmen......

[Toho]

sorry about the retarded estimation.

Oh! Don't worry mate... It'a a common question among the people... So, i'm not surprized....

i can not wait for this mod

[Mythos]

Nice map work, but shouldn't it be more mountainous? I mean, the Caucasus is just a series of small valleys and doming peaks after all.

Edit. Oh and Demetrias should either be where modern Volos is or renamed to Larisa, which is the actual city that sits exactly where you placed Demetrias.

Thanks for your kind words.

1) The map is outdated. I''l try (or the leader) to post new pictures soon...

2) Demetrias is the ancient name of Larissa right? So, must be on the centre of Thessaly...

[Mythos]

No, Demetrias is very near to where Volos is. Larissa had the same name for quite some time. In fact, toponyms with the -ssa ending do not come from Greek, not even proto-Greek, which means they come from the people who inhabited Greece before the Greeks even arrived.

1. Great Job on the mod!!! and you guys made a perfect setting for it especially with the startup of more eastern religions in that time period. 2. could I get an E.T.A on release of this mod I would like to download, play, and give as much feedback as possible when doing so.
