I'd just like to say...

[Dayve]

That even though i've been on these forums a while and praised EB and its makers many times, EB is truly magnificent. So good, that i am unable to play any other mods. I can't play vanilla for obvious reasons, Res Gestae and Darthmod are little more than skin packs, SPQR is fun but highly unrealistic and therefore not to my tastes, the only thing that comes close to EB is RTR... And even then it is difficult to play RTR after experiencing EB... There's just so much to do and so much more challenge there than any other mod, so much more depth in the character traits department, awesome unit skins and realistic troop recruitment, the awesome government building system which is so good i'd bet money that future mods will use it in their mods, i could go on all night...

I absolutely cannot wait for the very final build of EB, and i shall have a can of beer in a minute in honour and respect of all the people that helped make the mod.

Thanks for the kind words Dayve. We've had an influx of about six new members over the past couple weeks, so we are slowly starting to move in some areas we were stuck in before. We're expecting big updates on our internal build within a week or so - two big ones. Then we'll be testing things and pushing to fix problems. We're more active now it seems in trying to figure out the reinforcement problem, but we don't have it yet. It seems very nasty, but there is a plan at least in figuring it out, which no one has managed to do so far. I've been playing as Pontos, Carthage, Epeiros, and Seleukids over the past month, and haven't had any mysterious CTD's and have been enjoying them in 1.5. Still a long way to go to 1.0, but we are getting there. I want to be able to enjoy some other mods when this is all done, like PI and Hegemonia among others, but I'm afraid I'll be too brainwashed by the things in EB to enjoy them as much as I could and want to.

Awesome stuff. And I have to agree with Dayve. All the other mods I used to play, while amaizing with models or other things, just don't have the feel EB does. While in no way putting them down, it is just hard for anything to surpass, or even get close to, the depth of this game for the nice niche of us history lovers.

Yes, after EB Im half tempted to remove RTR to free up some space... either that or sacrifice a goat in the name of the EB dev team

You are all kind people.

Have some psilocybin, on the team.

Just what the doctor ordered. Now I can really feel connected to my generals and the oneness of the empire.

I know what you meen about the campaign but what about the battles. I feel like the battles are allways against me somehow and like troop movement is more like chucking balls at each other and seeing whos the biggest and most firmly built.
