Certainly, for me, being able to change the visible range in battle set-up would be a welcome added 'chrome' benefit. I think the addition of the ability to change the visible range in the game would be a great addition, if this is possible with the game engine. FYI kronenblatt has created a small ...

The Duo Autokratores ('Two Emperors') campaign covers the conflict between the Bulgars and the Byzantines on the Balkans in the early tenth century AD and is run over a series of six year on a tactical-type hexagon map. The idea is to have two players in each team. (Three would work well too.) How p...

There is a forum called The Few Good Men having a Field of Glory II section where campaigns and tournaments of a more strategic nature are played. All good folks there too. :) Just a bit too few sometimes (as the name may suggest... 8) ) If you're interested in that, please visit it HERE , register,...

Great mod!!! But a few questions, how am i able to play as Crassus? I have played with roman senate until the moment he gets the consulate in the eastern provinces but it does not allow me to choose him. When a roman factions destroys the others, does then become the "Roman empire" or &qu...

Which mess in which csv files are you referring to? Well, at first I just wanted to mod hellenic factions in the base game a little to make them more historical. Little I knew what a can of worms I was opening. In a short time I found that: - Sparta can recruit light horsemen only at civ level 1; -...

I'm serious: I truly consider Empires stable (i.e., no crashes), enjoyable (both playing and modding), and wonderful (it's a true gem of a game).

Which mess in which csv files are you referring to?

That’s fair enough. Although it also raises the question whether an update to v1.50 is worthwhile at all, given low priority, old product, low player base, etc. Better for Empires to stay in v1.3.9 and instead spend resources (developers,beta testers, modders) on developing Kingdoms and future games...

The thick black lines represent impassable terrain, to represent the obstacle mountains like the Pyrenees, the Alps and the Carpathians actually are...

Not a problem at all, I did just that:

No sign of life from Aetius39, so let's skip him for the time being and move on to carpenkm.

I've published a fourth Roman Civil War scenario for download (see first post of this thread). 32 BCE: Octavianus against Marcus Antonius With Sextus Pompeius and Lepidus out of the way, Octavianus and Marcus Antonius were the last two contenders for mastery of the Roman world. Peace lasted between ...

Oki, got it. Thanks. Aetius39/Chris: you're next.

And from which satrapy of yours do you attack? i.e., the "attacker satrapy"?
