Nusantara : Total War

Sonic is finally finished his Unit Balancing & cost calculating sheet (taking consideration of that day's cost of life, maintaining the arms cost, distance, wage rate, and many more thingies that I didn't understand - and with sleeping in my room for two night only for doing that calculation, with all his yellowish books, well, this sheet isn't finished yet, and I didn't quite understand, what it was for... all the numbers and rupiah refrences on paper, but at least, I want to shown his unit list and some of our EDU)

Well, at least our historian team (aside from some who refuse to work with us after knowing that leader is me...), doing their job rather nicely (well, so almost all the historians who works with us (3 students)) are either Sonic's friend, or woman.....

Put your hopes high comrades! We're now working in our best pace!

EDIT: removed the attachments, posted the newer version w cav balance on my last post

At least, one job of creating a wholesale calculation about what they eat, what the price of weapons, what size of their families, and what their background wealth for infantry is finished..... Thank you for two day's food wolf

Hi... Malaysian here, do you still need people? I'm afraid my modding experience is pretty basic (modifying EDB for academy law bonus, temple of Epona, etc), and my knowledge of the region's history is also almost non-existent, but I think I'm a fairly good writer, I could take a shot with writing unit/building/faction descriptions if you want...

Anyhow, I want to conquer the map as the Malayans!

The entire archipelago shall know the rule of the Malayans!

Yeah, every help we accept! Thanks for joining our team Quirinus!

Well, if you want, can you help us in getting entire "nama orang melayu" as much as you can? we need every name to be inculuded, (so not only histroically famous name, but also common name), oh yeah, we also need more women name for the engine sakes too...

Sure, I'll try to do that. I'm not actually Malay myself though, so my research will probably rely heavily on what's avaliable on the Internet, if that's alright. Also, is there a deadline? =]

EDIT: Preliminary research suggests that modern Malay names are derived from Arabic, Javanese and Sanskrit in addition to Malay... do you mean me to compile the Malay-derived names only, or the others as well? The article also says that most modern Malay names are Arabic-derived, I don't know if that was the case in the timeframe of the game?

Also, re: the elephant bodyguards, maybe we can limit their power by limiting the number of elephants in the bodyguard to something like 3-4 (on large unit size) versus the 12 or so of the normal ele unit? Just a thought.
