Never!

You'll never see the new tree models, ship icons, characters, ports, resource icons, etc..

Sooooo, the mod will be released without them?

Hm. Okay.
Can we have at least a (mainly) textbased EBII then?
With graphics like in the very first SSI CRPG's?
And even more important: will EB II run on the DOSbox?

Yes, those will be kept for our enjoyment only.

That's a good idea and ot would of made possible to release it until now many times.

Maybe I'll feel jolly after the last exam result and I will at least show them in a preview.

I'm getting a spidey sense tingle from all these minor-faction-winding-up, boat-finishing, strat-map-checking tweets. Sort of a release-date-nearing kinda tingle.

What about EB2-Minecraft? Ssssssscataphracts-boom! Or an EB2-Skyrim mod? Fus ro Dahae!

We could always host an EB-based fantasy Minecraft server. You can be the King of the Gauls, or the Roman Emperor. Maybe you're just the local governor of Kyrene. Pave your way to glory today at EBcraft.

You're quite the optimist, eh?
My EBII-related expectations for 2012 include another faction preview and perhaps - if it is a good year - a preview about a few of the new game mechanics.
I don't even dream of a release this year.

(Please note that this is in no way means I'm unsatisfied. EB II and it's planned features is no mod but a real new game, even moreso than EB I. And since the team has to work on all these breathtaking ideas when coming home from a stressful and/or time-consuming daily job - not to even mention something as exotic and excentric as "private life" or "family" - I am absolutely fine with the information that there after all those years of dedication still is progress. )

Some sort of greek helmet? I don't know enough about arms and armour to be specific enough.

[Noble Wrath]

A pseudo-corinthian helmet. It would probably be worn by an upper class greek, roman or possibly phoinician. Now the cute little pony is one of those unsolved historical mysteries..
