EB - Countdown to Open Beta: Arche Seleukeia

[Sheep]

Just noticing that the upside-down anchor (if that's what it is) does look kind of like a Corinthian helmet at the bottom. I wonder if that's where the vanilla faction icon came from?

[AntiochusIII]

Nice...

Impressive.

My forum name simply signifies my favourite faction, after all.

And the name is better than Tsorim, which could be disputed as the various social classes of the "Carthaginians" did not actually have a "name" for themselves as we understand it, and several names could be used with no less or more accuracy than each other.

Edit: Thank you, Khelvan. Your decision is wise and respectable.

By the way: Khelvan, could you delete (like - delete, not just close) that thread you created? I'm aware of the civil war in TWC (poor, poor Veronans) but you should not bring the issue, even with links, over here to the org. With respect.

This is a fair and valid point. I have locked it. I generally don't delete posts, but this one should probably go, as it will only incite the situation.

I suppose that I also let my emotions get away from me, and felt personally insulted as did the majority of our team members. My purpose was to ensure the community was aware of what was happening, but you're right, I can't let my anger at what happened allow me to make bad decisions. And that certainly was not an appropriate thing to do, so I apologize.

I hope that the decision will not be viewed too negatively, and is perhaps understandable, given that I was as shocked as the rest of you reading these things.

Khelvan, I admire your (and the whole EB team's) maturity. After reading the monster thread about this cursed event at TWC, full of anger, lame excuses and accusations, I found your calm and seriousness incredibly appropriate and admirable. Once again, good job EB.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Yeah khelvan, it's probably for the best that you didn't keep that open and viewable for nutjobs like myself. I got angry.

And like I said, soldier on, EB, soldier on.

[Zero1]

I too must state that I truly admire the level of maturity EB is demonstrating. I myself after reading what had transpired well, as embaressing as it is to admit blew my stack over at the RTR forum and got suspended. On top of that I was so disgusted with the behavior demonstrated, I uninstalled the mod from my computer in a fit of rage...So don't feel bad for letting your emotions get the better of you Khelvan, I'm a pro when it comes to that. =p

But on the units, they look outstanding, particularly the Hypastisti *love the overhand animation*.
