Will 8.1 be compatible with 8.0 saves? Or should I stop my Romani Campaign now? I'm going to have to wait and start over after 8.1 if it's not. Great work guys.....

As far as I know is not savegame compatible sorryOriginally Posted by Xtiaan72
What we all have to remember is, that we have to wait for the marian refoms which is gonna be a long time from 270 bc not ot mention four turns per year.
Well I'm pretty new to EB. So that's fine with me. I just don't want to get to far into my first campaign if this patch is coming out soon. I can feel your pain if you've been playing for a while. What some people have called for is a late period provincial campaign. But it's kinda hard to ask for that when they haven't finished the version we have....

THAT'S FRICKIN' AWESOME!
I mean, all the other accuracy stats are cool, but to hear that you can actually build legio X Fretensis or legio XIII Clavdia has me fired up now.
Every chance you guys get, you impress me.
I want to make a XIII legion too! I don't know if you keep up with that HBO show Rome but they basically follow around two centurions from the XIII legion. They actually lifted their names from Ceasar's chronicals of Gaul ( Pullo and Varenus). These two guys are actually singled out in Ceasar's writing for heroism.
I wish they got more in detail with regards to Ceasar and his relationships with his legions during the civil war on the show. There is this classic passage in Caesar by Adrian Goldsworthy ( a great read) when Ceasar is absolutely lambasting the XIII'th. It's right before his invasion of Africa to finish off the survivers of Pharsalis. Apparently the XIII was refusing to go because he had promised them back pay and hadn't delivered. He called their bluff, decimated it's leaders ( funny thing to do to your most dependable legion) and told them all to go home. At which point the legion was shamed and begged him to change his mind.
So Ceasar says he'll think about it and takes off to Africa with two less experienced legions and gets into all kinds of trouble. He sends for reinforcements and the XIII'th come to the rescue in the nick of time! The loveable, hot headed, kick ass XIII'th!

If you are a fan of "Rome", you will notice a bunch of little visuals in EB that come from or are reminicant of the show.Originally Posted by Xtiaan72
Pullo and Varenus were just based on realistic names from Caesar's legions though. The real Pullo was a centurian who eventually betrayed Caesar and died. (Btw, what can't Pullo survive? In "Rome" he has had wounds that would be mortal today and a half hour later he is back getting hurt again.)
Yea, I realize they just lifted the names but it was a nice touch. That actor that plays Pullo is great....Amazing that he lends a little humanity to such a brute! That gladiator scene was just insane....When he wouldn't fight until they insulted the XIII'th...Hilarious! Great show but I wish they showed military matters in more detail.. I suppose it would be just too expensive. Like shooting gladiator every week on a cable budget!
