    It's an interesting thing... Though, I think phase 2 (keeping everything looking the same way) will even in EB2 have to wait a while. The building you speak of actually signifies the size of the settlement, i.e. level of building = level of settlement. Which might be solved on the campaign map by keeping the UI the same; but would require substantial more work regarding the settlement lay out on the battle map. The latter is known to be a proverbial pain.

    Hey Ayce, nice post.

    Murus Dacicus -
    In most cases, they're very late for our time period, most remains are after our period. We could represent it in-game, but it would probably be through the Greek stone wall, which is the same size as the oppida walls, so there isn't any reason to upgrade. The larger walls are simply too large for the things the Getai built.

    game fields -
    something like that could work. i think people have speculated that games may have been played at sarmiszegethusa, and most warrior societies embraced games as a form of less murderous (but usually equally violent) war.

    DSF and ESMR -
    nice ideas for upper level farming types. we'll keep those in mind with eb2, for sure, and perhaps can look at them with 1.1. to be honest, most of our emphasis is switching over to eb2, so they're more likely to appear there.

    Yes, I noticed you are concentrating on eb2. I was thinking about refining the Getai a little in eb1 1.1. As for murus dacicus, if they are too late for the time period then forget about it.

    The building doesn't have to actually make the transition to major city. I can be just another building like hot vapor baths or roads. I that case it would reduce squalor (if codeable) and be a requirement for the upper level goods trading business.

    Uită-te la profil, l-am updatat. Acum să nu-mi spui că vrei să ştii şi cu ce echipă ţiu? :D

    MSN is for modding discussion, got the profile when I entered the Kaiserreich mod team for HoI2, they all had MSN (crazy foreign people ). Yahoo is the general use profile.

    Looking forward to eb2. (after I back up about 1 TB, reformat everything and get a geforce 8800)
