Hello to all Europa Barbarorum Fans,

The past:
It's a long time since you had some serious news about the development of Europa Barbarorum. The sad truth is that the latest versions that I released the last 2 years didn't meet any expectations including mine.
Every version that I released after the release of EB 1.3 for some reason failed. Including 1.31 and 1.32 series. I don't know if the modding of EB after 6 years exploded my brain (overdose of EB modding) because serious modding of EB it's really really complicated and requires serious brain power.
It could be also related to the fact that 2 years before I emigrated to an other country plus some serious personal problems and loss of motivation.

Now:
Thanks to the rest of the team, we managed to recover and all this time they have continued to produce material that is yet to be released. This includes the many new units plus a lot of other stuff.
Recently I took the hard decision to scrap everything and remod everything from scratch. I also deviced to write a kind of diary explaining at least the basics:

Well that basicaly means that all these files I checked from zero basis (from scratch) and remod them.

Future:
Now they are included to the first base build of project "EB FINALE". The first version is planned to be a playable version of all the material released until now and the second and final version, with all the new material.

Regards,
EB 1.3 Team
