Ahiga, I could thank you for the content in the preview alone! That you've taken such care to bring an old empire back to life is a testament to your dedication and skill.

Brilliant you have done the Ērānshahr real justice, a touch more conspicuous displays of colour on the nobles- but otherwise brilliant.
I am a more than a little saddened to here this is the end of work on Constantine.
Awesome! when will it be released ?
Nice!
but your Arabic needs work
I haz a culler!! (really, who gives a darn? its totally meaningless, and it doesn't really accurately reflect who I am)
Awesome job, love playing your mod.
I never read Arabs used bows as horse archers anywhere . Javelin was more common on horse back
You are correct - the only came into prominence in the 7-10th century to which they were the best horse archers.
Great preview and awesome unit design and choice. Although I think a "Zhayedan" unit could have been included as well !
In regard to names , I think they're good. some of them even very good and innovative like words such as Mardān , Kof , Bandagān , Adurbadagan (Correct name of the region at the time) and Kurdān which I don't remeber seen them in other mods ! However I'd like as an Iranian to propose my own type of names for a few of them :
-"Kurdān-î Zubindār" instead" of Nēzak-Zēnīg Savârân-î Kurdān > What you suggested literary means "Spear-thrower Nomad cavalrymen" ! Zubin in Parsi is equal to Javelin in english , so I replaced it with Nezak-Zēnīg (Also the spelling for Zēnīg is wrong , correct dictation is zen or zan). Kurdān-î Zubindār literary means Nomad Javelinmen. I remved cavalrymen (Savaran) part for ease of calling , yet if you are want that part being included then "Savârân-î Kurd-î Zubindār" is your word (which is not preferable to me).
Also "Savârân-î Kurdān" is better to be renamed to "Kurdān-î Savâr" or at least "Savârân-î Kurd" because you've used plural form for both names which is grammatically wrong !
I can't suggest more such improvements if you'd like to.
Good luck
Gyan Avspar Peshmerga means those who sacrifice their lives in Pahlavi, they existed but IDK about that uniform.
Just wondering what is left for the new update to be finished?
Everything seems to be in place in this preview, unless ofc you have some more units to do.
It will probably come out save compatible for the most part. Old units and such from before the update will still be there until they're destroyed/lost/replaced but it should work out right for the most part.
