    Interesting. It's nice to read more on such a relatively obscure corner of the Ancient World.

In view of our divine essence, we need only liberty and work; in view of our mortal nature, we need for our direction a guide and a support. A government is not then, as a distinguished economist has said, a necessary ulcer; it is rather the beneficent motive power of all social organisation.

And then one of the prisoners came, stood by me for a while, put a hand on my shoulder and said to me, something that I will never forget: ''Tränen sind denn nicht genug, mein Junge,

    I'm not sure if even half of this stuff would get implemented in EBII, but thanks regardless for bringing this stuff to light and to our attention. Very interesting indeed! +1 rep.

    Very nice work!

    In your artwork, please pay attention to hands holding pole-like objects. They are the only things that defy natural perspective enough to immediately catch my attention. Hands are of course difficult to draw and one of the things that human observers pay a lot of attention to.

    When fingers grow gradually bigger from a relatively small index finger to a large little finger ("pinky"), as they do now in some your work, it gives the impression that the hand is tilted where the pole is not. Also, when the character is holding a spear or somesuch vertically, the pole should not be too close to the knuckles, the back of the hand or the wrist. Please allow the hand to have its natural width.

    This is not advice from an illustrator or painter that is better than you, however. In fact I suck. I just feel that someone as good as you should really work on those small details to perfect ones art. Looking forward to more of your illustrations!

    Dear Khevsur,

    Your work is really impressive and illustrates your passion for the topic! I really hope you will be able to participate in great mods like EBII or DBM to give us the opportunity to play with these units and background.

    Thank you very much,
