September/October Preview?

**Tanit** · 09-15-2006, 13:58

I know the EB team is working especially hard these days to finish .8 and I truly appreciate all of their work, but.....Would it be possible toget another preveiw to wet the appettites of your adoring fans? Possibly even a glimpse at the still mysterious ibex shield faction? That would be great guys.

We gave you three previews, and three new addons to download, within three weeks, and you still want more? Oh, the humanity!

We're actually back on track with 0.8 (people coming back, things getting sorted out, bugs getting cleaned) so we'd rather spend time finishing this one finally. Expect previews when we're stuck again on something ;)

We are really working hard on the 0.8 release and it seems to be really not far away, so stay tuned. If no major new bugs arise, 0.8 should be available to the public soon.

Edit: In the meanwhile, you could also give Arthurian TW a try, it's a really fun mod. But only until EB 0.8's out of course

Nice news for 0.8 version!

Just wondering, could we able to use our old save games with the new verison? Coz, i've wiped out evil Makedons, poor Hellenon, Greedy Romans and Barbaric Getai from history in my Epeiros campaign.

By the way EB is awesome mod. I play it with a great joy. Serious gameplay like Chess combined with classic TW gameplay ( except vanilla RTW

).

Godspeed mates. We're waiting for your new update eagerly.

i'm sorry this is not possible, the changes are too deep (new units etc...)

Bad news for me good new features for us

So, i'll begin a new campaign again

We've ported from rtw1.2 to 1.5 btw, that alone doesn't allow old saves(since we've added two new factions).

Also a lot of traits have been added or changed(biggest part of that being ethnicities) and that alone would make it impossible to use your old save. Then you add Map changes, resource changes(check the preview if you haven't already done so), new units etc.
