Huge edit: Now, I'm not going to study, but look over unit lists. EB has done it again!
Great work guy, just ebrilliant!
Now, how about we get some Romani units and how many virgins and babies will that cost us?
rereedit: Looks like you guys are updating each and every one of them. Tommorow, I'm getting myself a fresh copy. Now, if I could only remember how to delete EB? :D

OMFG!!!!!
The new baktrian units are ........ UNBELIEVABLE!!!!
(sorry for caps :stwshame:)
I noticed the naked celtic units are wearing loincloths, is this so you don't show their private parts on the internet or will they be wearing them in game?
This is the modesty patch. You had the option in 0.8x as well (and I think 0.7x too).

Full monty is optional, don't worry your fix of naked men is still there...

By default they are naked in-game, but the user has an option of installing a modesty patch to add loincloths. The patch is an optional element in the installer.
We really should've used fig leaves instead of dull loincloth.

On an unrelated note, you could think that having three EB members simultaneously answering an off-topic question (in relation to the thread) with the website updated to 1.0 status would imply that something's going on.

Yes, one could certainly draw that conclusion........ :book:

Oh yeh, I dare to do that.
I just checked Romani units.
I've only seen 2 units changed and no offense, comparing to previous images, they look like :furious3:
No don't get me wrong, I still worship your work and I do with any mod that I use, but cohorta evocata looked much better before. I know it's not the look of units, but it gives me the feeling we went back to your old days (yes, I've been checking all threads and you've made an excellent progress in all this time). They just don't have the same feel anymore. The Imperial legions as well. Maybe they look like gods ingame, but right now, in comparison with other units, they just don't fit in the whole Romani scheme.
Is it just me, or does someone else think the same way.

Well...since were all prowling around now on the EB website..you have got to see the Elephantes Indikoi for the Pahlava and the Hetairoi Kataphraktoi for Baktria...They look awesome.

Yes, one could certainly draw that conclusion........ :book:yeah, it's pretty obvious at this point. but who is going to tell them that we've canceled EB?
Why do you torture us like this evrey time lol
I am left speechless. It's fricking amazing.
And I have only saw Aedui and Selucid units. Man Oh man those new units for both of them are awsome. I want them bad. Those Katpatuka Zanteush (Cappadoccian Hillmen), Tabarg�n� �r�nshahr (Eastern Axemen) and Misthophoroi Uazali (Mercenary Karian Warband) are absolutely beautifull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And now after checking Baktrian unit list I got a hard on.
Now It's clear that my first campaign in 1.0 is going to be with Baktira. Those new units are super sweet! (Baktria was the first faction I played for when I encountered EB for the first time)
I mean - Indo-Greek Noble Hoplites (I remember seeing them as the wonderfull artwork by Caratacos in unit development therad) , Infantry Guild Warriors, Indo-Iranian Light Cavalry, Indo-Iranian Heavy cavalry, Armoured Indian Elephants, Hetairoi Kataphraktoi, re-done Hellenic Heavy Skirmishers... That is a dream come truth. I am really amazed. Those units are truly work of art. You guys did so wonderfull work, again! Thank you, you are the best.

I feel the same way dude... I don't know about ingame, but in the pictures found on the webpage their heads are too big compared to the body. If you cover the heads with your finger the body is fine.

Soooo, can I play it yet? Please.
No seriously, guys. Please. I'm going to go insane. I've logged into this forum like 30 times a day for the past week, hoping to see a BIG 1.0 Release.
My brain hurts....you don't want my brain to hurt do you? No. I don't think so.
For the sake of my sanity, release it tonite please.
Thank you for your cooperation

Well, I think its the other way round, we have to thank you, guys!
The Hetairoi Kataphraktoi, Indohellenikoi Eugeneis Hoplitai and all the other Iranian/Indian units are truly an opus magnum, they´re simply ... simply ... amazing.
See? I told you that once you see the new bodyguards, you wouldn't want to go back...

Yeh, that and just the general feeling. They stand out. The ONLY things changed. Also the "quality" of their images (or something like that) just doesn't go along with the rest of Romani units on the page. It' not coherent.
I know it's not the best time, but in the future the EB team might look int it (after they get their more then well earned rest!)?

That.
And then I saw the "Eb1 ready for download!(etc.)" topic, which almost caused me a heart attack.
have you add all the new unit of EB 1.0 in this update or there more to came?
I most ask because some unit still have the same skin form EB. 7.4 the new unit´s are :jawdrop:

Lusotannan Dosidataskeli (Vasci Armoured Shock Infantry)
Holy......
Are these guys in the game already or were they added for 1.0? I have a Lusotana campaign going now and I'm wondering if I'll be able to pick these guys up at some point.
I'm feeling ecstatic over all the new units on the page. I can't even think straight anymore, awesome overload.

It's definitely buttery rich....and they still deny us the ecstasy of bashing skulls with such beautiful units. I might have to just go play RE4 to get my mind off of it. :dizzy2:

The new units are awe-inspiring. :beam:
It is rather trivial, but there were a few apparent typos in some of the descriptions :book: Does the team have a proof-reader?

A good question, but I suspect they do. They should anyways. :2thumbsup:

It's difficult to get people who are willing (as opposed to those who say they are willing and then disappear after a few days) to do that full-time. The amount of text in EB is mind boggling. It took most of an EB day (i.e. time after work and before sleep) to proof the announcement and the readme file, and those are comparative blips in the universe of EB text.
Bootsiuv
10-12-2007, 00:19
I would do it.
That sort of thing just comes naturally to me. I don't think I ever scored less than 90% on a spelling test, and that was usually from not paying attention, and english was just too easy.
Just putting that out there. Not that it wouldn't take me a few weeks to read through all of the text, but I'd still do it.

I read pretty rapidly and am fairly proficient in English. While often quite busy with schoolwork, I would be willing to commit to look over a fixed quantity of text. Despite the possibility of volunteers overlooking typos, piecemeal distribution of such a daunting task might be something for the team to consider. At a bare minimum, it would undoubtedly help weed out the more conspicuous errors. One team member could then review corrections suggested by volunteers.
I am impatiently downloading right now. I knew that if I sat and stared at my pc screen hitting refresh long enough the update would be ready. Some of that is a joke. I am trying to be patient while waiting for the download :clown:

10-12-2007, 00:58
I think Primer Inter Duces has a good idea. Why not let those who have a good grasp of the English language (which doesn't imply that you guys don't, your just too busy with other parts of the mod) review the descriptions and correct errors. Following that, a team member could review and approve.
Just an idea, but an unbelievable mod like this really should be perfect down to the last letter IMO.

Attenion all "new" Roman-unit detractors: The comments about head-size are probably true, but this is an easy enough fix for the moddlers.
For those of you who feel they dont "jive" with the old Roman units; keep in mind that all of the Roman skins are in a process of being re-tooled and improved, as they are some of the oldest skins in EB (most originally from Prom). Xprime (who did the new reskins) will most likely do the others as well, so they will look similar in the future (and into EB II).
So is the "head size" thing just on the website or is it in game as well?
Zaknafien
10-12-2007, 03:38
Im not even sure I havent even seen them in game yet, likely so though. I honestly dont think they look too large though. Anyways, its a 10-minute max fix for Xprime.

Personally, I've found always found RTW heads (and those in most mods) too small in proportion to the body.
