Hi Comrade General

I will certainly let you know how I get on with Macedon - but I haven't made it past 474 yet. The reason for this is an annoying CTD after 10-12 years which I have (I hope) finally solved. The problem with third level stables - reported on the TWCenter thread for this Mod - was actually crashing the Mod when AI built them, but by changing the build requirements for parni cataphract in EDB this now seems solved - I can click on the hippodrome icon without crash and the c12 year crash time has been passed without trouble.

There may be other bugs lurking but at the moment all seems smooth and I aim to play on and see if Marian reforms usher in the later Macedonian units.

Delving in the files, it's clear that this is a fairly simple Mod in terms of number of units and buildings, but I think that gives it quite a classic feel (like people are always saying about Shogun); the strategic choices for the player are many, and the map is just the best. The stability is also good - I must have fought up to a hundred battles and I've only had one random crash on leaving a large battle. You may have tired of the Mod but I'm still finding it interesting. Thanks for all the hard work that must have gone into making it
