I know the EB team is working especially hard these days to finish .8 and I truly appreciate all of their work, but.....Would it be possible toget another preveiw to wet the appettites of your adoring fans? Possibly even a glimpse at the still mysterious ibex shield faction? That would be great guys.
We gave you three previews, and three new addons to download, within three weeks, and you still want more? Oh, the humanity! :dizzy2:
We're actually back on track with 0.8 (people coming back, things getting sorted out, bugs getting cleaned) so we'd rather spend time finishing this one finally. Expect previews when we're stuck again on something ;)
We are really working hard on the 0.8 release and it seems to be really not far away, so stay tuned. If no major new bugs arise, 0.8 should be available to the public soon.
Edit: In the meanwhile, you could also give Arthurian TW a try, it's a really fun mod. But only until EB 0.8's out of course:wink:
Nice news for 0.8 version!:2thumbsup:
Just wondering, could we able to use our old save games with the new verison? Coz, i've wiped out evil Makedons, poor Hellenon, Greedy Romans and Barbaric Getai from history in my Epeiros campaign.
By the way EB is awesome mod. I play it with a great joy. Serious gameplay like Chess combined with classic TW gameplay ( except vanilla RTW :sweatdrop: ).
Godspeed mates. We're waiting for your new update eagerly.

i'm sorry this is not possible, the changes are too deep (new units etc...)Quote:

Bad news for me good new features for us :oops:
So, i'll begin a new campaign again :juggle2:
We've ported from rtw1.2 to 1.5 btw, that alone doesn't allow old saves(since we've added two new factions).Quote:

Im going to Portugal next Wednesday - reckon I'll come back to a shiny new EB ?
:2thumbsup:
Now, now, we're not falling for giving any dates this time :) Just because we've moved through with work on 0.8 doesn't mean it will be ready by next week or two. It just means it will be ready soon :)
Christmas will be fine thanks :laugh4:
Eadingas is absolutely right here, it will be soon but we won't tell you an exact date.Quote:

Howmany new units shall you include to 0.8? Plus, if i heard it true many old unit skins redone. You already did a great mod. I believe that a new Epeiros campaign shall be a exciting adventure for me.
Thank's a lot EB team. :bow:
Worth a try :sweatdrop:Quote:

Kudos to whoever skinned the Thorakitai!
Indo-Greek Hoplites of previous previews are now named Indo-Hellenikoi Peltastai...so this new unit is prolly Indo-Hellenikoi Hoplitai now.Quote:

Ok, since we previewed this unit already, a panoramic shot I made yesterday during unit integration:
Edit: Whoops, my mistake, we hadn't previewed this unit yet, but here's another one(already previewed):

If people have had fun hunting, can some kind person post a link for the rest of us incompetents. ;)
Check the EB website and gallery every now and then.
I think the team likes to try and slip things by when they think nobody is looking... ;)
Visit a lot of different sites associated with EB and you never know what in
the world you will come up with. You may find some really cool new things on a
website somewhere if you are lucky, a forum possibly, a review even linked to a
gallery of shots, or some other type of sneak peak into various things EB. Or wait
for them to show up eventually in the game and you can see them then. But if a
new patch or extra download is what you want, you probably won't find any
unit updates or anything like that. But you never know. We have lots of cool
pictures of our new units already shown so maybe that's enough. :laugh4:
edit: damn you!
there's even an interesting shot, posted by TA, of the midriff of a heavy kretan archer. looks nice, and much the sort of direction I was hoping they would go for at least one of the variants of kretans. oh yeah, the shot is in some thread over at twc.
I came here looking for a definition of soon. Does anyone have one?
