    Default Will Thermopylae exist on the campaign map?

    I am wondering if you can implant Thermopylae in the game, so that you really have two cliffs when having a battle at the site of Thermopylae. I have seen the " Decisive Battles" programme with battles from RTW and Thermopylae is actually shown there! I know, I'm dreaming, but it would be too good to be true!

    Btw, this mod is gonna be great! Keep up the good work!

    There were two TV series based on Rome: Total War. The first was called Time Commanders, which was only across the pond from me (only in UK). The second was Decisive Battles.

    And way back in the murky past of TWC, you could download them here or find ways to download them. Then TWC almost got sued, so that stopped everything pretty quickly and even the URL was changed to not include the phrase "total war".

    Edit: And to stay on topic (*hits self*) I would love to actually fight Thermopylae. It would be awesome to watch, but I get the feeling it wouldn't be that fun to play. You just set your phalanx down and watch them cut through rows of the enemy... Maybe switching them into and out of combat to keep them refreshed.

    Regular History Channel doesn't show it, but History International will air an episode once every week or two. Not to mention HI airs a LOT more ancient Histories things than regular History channel does.

    Which is why history channel is not for me, apart from the blatant inaccuracy and often slant.
