It made me laugh when I read a RTW: Heaven's 2005 review of Europa Barbaroum:
"here's no mention of any massive scale changes to the Roman factions, so you can probably expect the usual 4 Roman factions."

'4 factions' XD



Anyways, let's all help edit the Europa Barbaroum wiki page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_Barbarorum

I've added 3 pics but there are definitely better picturess from screenshot of the month out there.

Do you think they'd be any call for a dedicated EB wiki? We've discussed the need for a manual etc previously, perhaps this would be an easier solution?

I had a question concerning something I found on the wiki


Special alerts and graphics representing the major stages of the breakup of the Seleucid empire, if the collapse occurs.

What's this about? Never noticed it in the game, what happens specifically?

They are there in the code, but for some reason refuse to work properly. Scripters could tell you all about them.

(Events aren't really the strongest point of the RTW 1.5 engine either.)

Can the EB team host the EB 1.0 map (currently available on https://img184.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mapbig9antiqueru4.jpg) on Filefront or something so that we can upload it to Wikimedia (assuming the EB team doesn't mind)?

Using the wikipedia's "special: upload" is much easier.

I think, but am not certain, that this was incompatible with using the last faction slot (the Senate one) ever since the mod ran on 1.5.

Thinking of maybe adding a detailed list of factions, with starting position, strength and weaknesses, etc.

At least it's already better than the RTR article... nice choice of screenshots, Intranetusa.

I think that EB team should edit Wiki pages..

Absolutely not!

I only begrudgingly acknowledge that they have to work in the real world sometimes. All of their time should be spent on polishing the edges of EB1.1 (but not releasing it until I reach the Marian reforms without cheating. Something I have never yet achieved between releases).

Or answering any questions I pose. Although I'm entirely happy for non-EB members to answer them if they can.




So: no, EB members should not waste valuable entertaining-Maeran time on a wiki site.

This seems like a good idea to me. It'd help to reduce the learning curve for recent converts, and it'd be a good way for non-EB-members to contribute to the project.

The only thing members could add that isnt already known would be what goes on behind the scenes.
And no one wants to know about that. :wink:

... And I added links to them, BUT, a few of those links could be better, though.

Oh well, *moar linking*

Thanks. It would've been better on "high quality" graphics - it was on low-medium =( and without the excessive UI...
