Sabean temples/holy buildings

[HFox]

Hi

Just noticed, there dont seem to be any. Is religion there an underground cult? Are they aetheist? :laugh4:

They were missed. They will be there in the future. I've written the base descriptions for the gods already.

They are still looking for their inner selves. Crisis of faith.

Actually it's part of a yet to be done temple system for Saba that is a bit different. For the Sabeans gods were really more related to a specific place than a sphere of influence. So while a goddess might be a moon god, she was more specifically the god of a particular valley, hill, well, whatever. If we can make it work Saba will use the temples of places it conquers rather than having its own. The only exceptions will be the south arabian provinces which will use Sabean temples (because we have to get the right gods in there for the system to make sense). We're not yet sure how/if we can make this work, but we'll see.

intrigueing, always wondered about pre-islamic Arabic faith.

I did notice that in one province they have some sort of undescribed (and unbonused) standing stone thing call moon temple or something.





Allah, god of the moon.

My computer's on the fritz. but as soon as it's fixed I'm playing as Sab'yn!

P.S. Will the religious system for them be completed in .81, or will there be a seperate patch for the new Sab'yn religion?

No export_buildings.txt edits for the next patch. It will be the one after that. Not too long we are hoping though.
