    Default The historically wrong thread

    Topic says it all, its for things that are wrong historically. like the Λ (lambada?) thats the symbol the spartans use but, in the game, the macedons have. they should have some six sided son or something (?!?!). This is not for balancing, like the ele's wouldn't stand that much, but for like if some unit have a shield which it shouldn't have and such. (if i got the Λ wrong, sry)

    I know it is how they wanted to be, but three roman families didn't rule the Republic for almost 3 centuries. Probably it is a good idea, but the roman factions may be more united. And I miss having SPQR in the banners.

    The magistrat (consuls, praetors, censors, aedils, quaestors) was elected by the people. The offices weren't assigned by the senate!

    Londinium was founded around 47AD, 33 years after the game ends.

    Not that I actually care though

    Ugh...
    I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog,There of which I stand alone,A face in the crowdUnsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out
    The only way I know

    Stepped out of the line,Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time,To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind,Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts

    "For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
    A free for all,Screw 'em all
    You are your own sight

    I want to be the minority,I don't need your authority
    Down with the moral majority,I want to be the minority

    Fixing most of these things would make the game very, very unappealing to people who are not 'ULTIMATE ANCIENT HISTORY BUFFS!!!' like most of the people of this forum. Only about 0.001% (or something like that, I don't know) of the people who own the game probably actually care about when the Brutus family came along or whatever.

    If you want accuracy, get a mod, rather than complaining about the accuracy of the game.

    I do however agree about the Spartan and Macedonian symbols.

    ?
    What's this shouting for ?

    I see this thread as a kind of "anti-easter egg", where we try to find the little errors. The same as it's fun, in a movie, to try to see the little glitches (like the Odysseus who wears a digital watch, or the guy who is wounded on the left arm in one scene, and the right arm in one other).

    I don't see it as complaint, bashing, accusation or else...
    If violence didn't solve your problem... well, you just haven't been violent enough.
