Well, for all those hoping EB will do a BI-era mod, it can't even be considered if we don't have a substantial influx of new members. We won't have anyone to make new units or buildings, everyone is busy with the vanilla-era mod.

A-historical units or no, I'll probably be buying BI. It didn't spoil my fun in RTW, and hopefully it will come with an improved AI.
That said, it's a wacky unit.

This model is quite good......for Lord of the Rings MOD or Arthurian Britain MOD. The unit name+description is crap........ The Brit. Graal is a false relic that never existed in any other place than the Pope's faith and CA's fantasy.
If this isn't illegal, EB could use this model ( with alot of modifications, of course) for the SECRET-UBER-EASTERN FACTION-GIVE-ME-ACTION OF BARTIX.

I've played a bit of BI now and I have to say that I am disappointed in everyway that one can be disappointed.

I blame Sega. If only CA could be rich like Blizzard and not be under the enslavement of a generic game publishing company... then all will be right with the world.

Really I guess my biggest beef with BI is not the lack of historical accuracy, but rather the increditably rushed feel of the game. All the units seem to be copies of other units, I think in total CA might have created all of 15-20 new models. I think just about EVERY faction shares the same horse archer model, even the skins differ just by color. They were very, very lazy with this game.

I have stopped playing BI and will not start again until an acceptable TOTAL OVERHAUL mod comes by.

back on topic..wich seems to be "NOOOoooooo" i also found this:

come to think of it..i almost bought BI 2 days ago...
can't imagine my face if those suddenly popped up...i'd be breaking furniture and chewing my foot off...

EDIT: actually, i found what my face would have looked like

and then

Well, there were the geisha and kensai in STW, sherwood foresters in WI and Arcani in RTW to name others.... I guess you're right, historical accuracy is not to be expected, but I still feel like they are taking their games to a whole new level with BI.

But personally I don't think the games get's funnier to play the more nuts they go. I mean seriously, are the unhistorical units of vanilla RTW better looking than those of EB? At least we can't say that we should expect a better look from a design point of view from the mod-community.

And no, I don't want to do drivebys with chariot ballistae, I was just....

Did anyone suggest CA to create a "Zout followers" unit ? It would be made of virgin women held in a monastery since the age of sixteen for 10 years and unleashed on the battlefield, hungry for you-know-what. Their banner would be a magic light in the shape of a grail...

All right, i know where is the exit.
