Obviously Ostia was suitable to late Republican Rome's needs but my impression was it wasn't a naval hub like Carthage or Alexandria in the EB period.

I guess the explanation could be the historical "player" chose not to build the large port before 14 AD but the EB player has the choice to do so.

Rome won't have a port from the start, just a fishing village and the purpose was to preview the map graphics.

Capua however will have one since it was more influential.

Economics, starting buildings, armies aren't tweaked yet.

Ah thanks for the reply, how did I not see this earlier?

Good to know.

Lol double post, I have no idea what I'm doing. Its the excitment from reading the devs blog, that tribal system is sweet.

Chainsaws were in common in the lugian forests? The stubs look like this...

Yes, it's from the brand ©Two-handed saw.

Only been used when the tree was cut down already. For cutting down the two-handed axe was in use, what made the stubs look much different. Also not sure if the two-handed saw was invented in Lugia 180 BC.

But nice pics!

Sweet, You must have done some mindreading, I was already thinking about asking for some sneak peak on the lugiones since they were previewened so long ago but almost without pics but now there's my wish fulfilled and the explaination behind the lack of pics (they are still being done). Also, that second guy must have survived brawling with some Slaganz, what a hugly wound in his head! Very nice =)

So that's where the chainsaw Sweboz Tux posted earlier comes in.
