How is the progress, I wounder? Have you finished the map, at least?
The map is totally finished.

BTW, I've being following this mod for ever since it started in 2007, and I've got the feeling the mod is done somewhat half-heartily.
We are working with around 3-4 persons around now. I am in the last year of high school and as such, I have to spread my time (since I also work for DotS)

Aside form the slow progress, You haven't opened your own forum, and rarely does the community hear updates from you. A faction preview would be most welcome.
There's a preview two pages back. We previed Aturpatekan (Atropatene) and Aksum, and did some unit previews on Nabataia not too long ago.
