    It's not THAT old song, for God's sake. I think it's younger that "Tears in Heaven". Althought I suppose there are a couple other songs about changing the world, it's a common topic.

    Our modders must spend time modding, not wishing for things they cannot have.

    Maybe so but think about it. If we can get enough good ideas, we can send the list to CA and say "Oi gives more freedom It works for half life 2."

    Since I don't mod but preview and play historian for the Parthians, I'd love to have a fully accurate East, as well as realistic cities.

    Ah, I love that song.
    It's hard to keep on topic that is so vague. Obviously, EB would look completely different if we had no limits and more modding help from CA. First thing we'd do is, I believe, get more factions in game, and much more units. 500 slots is just not enough :)

    but then. by the Time EB is ready It will be 2011...of course you want it to be accurate. but you have to draw a line somewhere in order to deliver a finished project..and for me, at this moment,500 units is already phenomanal...

    More model space would even better than more units.

    Without question, the ability to have 1:1 troop representations of actual units, i.e 5000 man legions (and several of them).

    At the moment, we have:
    Small (x1, max 60)
    Huge (x4, max 240)

    I want:

    Ultrahuge (x20, max 1200) and I could do everything I needed to do to get realistic unit numbers.

    This should be a very minor coding problem, although I accept that some peoples computers are going to struggle with the numbers, even using the LOD features in the 3D engine.

    What I'd reallly like is an end to the red border around the map, and for armies to start further away. The routers would be a problem because it would take ages to reach the edge of the map, so I propose that when an entire army runs away and that victory message pops up the battle automatically ends, just like in medieval.

    If you combined that with bigger unit sizes it would be incredible
