    It does work, but it's working for the wrong faction. If you use the Seleukids you'll hear it .

    Plus, pre-battle speeches are not affected, and may never be, depending on how many people we get to help with the voice mod.

    I know EB likes presenting things in the historical languages, but I think you can sleep easy over not translating pre-battle speeches. Lots of sentences spoken in Latin would be pretty meaningless to most players. I remember my first university graduation ceremony was all in Latin and it was totally alienating. I was a little envious to find out other universities sometimes have inspirational speeches (in English!).

    It would be nice if we could get the speeches to match to the situation (fighting Ptolemies, say Ptolemies instead of Numidians, or whatever). We'd need some very dedicated voice actors, I guess. And that's if you can replace those files without any problems. I know somebody was trying to do a voice mod for the speeches at TWC and didn't seem to have much luck.

    Ah! the Generals! they are numerous, but not good for much (especially if they're Languorous)!
