Thread: Preview: The Areuakoi
Awesome, awesome preview! Loving the pics of the new settlements, looks like taking that gate with javelin men on the walls will be extremely costly.
I really wish I knew more about programming so that I could help but the traits files and such always escaped my understanding.

Everything is working correctly now. Great job, it's a very interesting and enjoyable preview. I'm wondering whether some resources will have some special effects like making various types of buildings/units cheaper or providing bonuses to happiness?
I'm not really familiar with habits and savoir vivre of modding community so forgive me my question, but is it possible to post this message (about needing programmers) on various forums of M:TW 2 mods'? It will not be stealing the programmers but just looking for volunteers, in my opinion.
Oh, and the preview is breathtaking, as usually :)

If they will allow us then we will advertise on their forums. We are already in discussion about collaboration with members from Broken Crescent and Invasio Barbarorum II and will hopefully be getting some help from Roma Surrectum II if all goes well.
The resources Mini Preview has been expanded a little now. To be honest, as we have stated, it wasn't finished when we released the preview. So it is worth checking the Resources Mini Preview every now and again as we will continue to expand it bit by bit.
Glad everyone likes the (now working) preview! As we have said before, we have a very loyal and dedicated fan base so we wouldn't do these things if you guys didn't exist. Thanks for all the support!
@Cybvep This is something we will need to discuss in the future, for the moment we need to focus on getting the campaign script finished. But an interesting suggestion nonetheless.
And if anyone knows any programmers or scripters please point them in our direction.

Didn't investigate too much, but so far I spotted no nuragic province (sigh) a new one in Illyria (fingers crossed for a new faction there :P), another good entry is a settlement north of the Crimea, bit of leg room for the Spartokidai, so they don't have to attack the Sauromatae from the start :)
I seriously have no words, guys. I thought this to never happen in this mod, and what it is more the work is outstanding and well researched as far as I am seeing. Good, brilliant job Brennus!.
Long time I dont visit this forum and I came to see this lol.

WOW, everything really looks like it is coming together!
SWEEEEEEEEEEETT
great update.
great update.
The depth and breadth of these previews always astounds....congratulations and thanks
BTW I'm very happy that you decided to tackle the problem of settlements models early on, i.e. before the first release. Medieval cities are potentially the biggest immersion-breaker that could happen in the mod.
Been away for a bit and this is a very much appreciated sight to greet me. I am a little shocked at the sheer amount of update material. A new faction, unit previews, town previews, campaign map stuff....wow. I've only skimmed through it so far but will go back and read through properly after this.
I just want to say this is a very nice body of work. I can understand why it has taken quite so long to produce now. Very well done brennus (and other contributing authors).

I wish I could help, but I don't know any programmers =/. All I can say is this looks fantastic and keep up the good work. I'm sure many of us will wait years (if that's what it takes) to play this mod. Please keep with it!
Guys, somebody should update the thread containing all previews. It's outdated... Also, many pictures in the old thread don't work for some reason. You should use Dropbox or sth in order to keep the files in a "safe" place.
omg this is massive, it's going to take some time to read all that *strugles*
also: the celtiberians are in, massive surprise! ... not ;)

wow! amazing preview guys, good job!
Ah, so when I was snooping around in Tux's imageshack profile it looks like I discovered the new faction after all 
Great preview I can't wait for the mod to come out.

beautiful, wonderful, magnificent great job guys! keep it alive and good luck recruiting
Amazing preview! The amount of historical research involved is incredible! I tip my hat to the EB team, and in particular to Brennus, for unveiling such a marvelous preview. Having grown up in Spain, I can really appreciate the attention to detail that the Areuakoi and Iberians have received. Thank you guys so much for the hard work.
Can't wait for the release!

I greatly appreciate all of the time and effort you all have given to this project. It really looks wonderful. I regretfully dont know any programmers. Have you guys tried to raise money via kickstarter (or similar programs) to pay for programmers? The people who give x amount could have their picture incorporated into a factions family tree or some other incentive. I dont know how you guys feel about actually paying people for helping though.

I doubt raising money via kickstarter for the mod would be legal. Getting some donations for the homepage might be grey area (translation?), but donations to pay people working on the mod would be a violation of Sega's rights.Have you guys tried to raise money via kickstarter (or similar programs) to pay for programmers?

Awesome! I love that you are making new battlemap settlements! Those are going to add tons of immersion to the game.
Have to say that I have only good things to say about this mod, and not just on the principle that those working on it do so in their own time and for free, but also because it is a masterpiece in the making. Brennus, and the team, you have done yourselves proud with another in-depth, beautiful and incredible faction preview. I am awed by the scope of it all. I wish I was any good as a programmer, but I am not. Kudos, and a big thank you.
I face the risk of repeating myself over and over again but.... you guys are amazing! Excellent preview!
This is Art! Beautifull!
hmmm one week and just 2 pages*??!?! Activity around here is really running low :O
*and this preview is more extensive(and awesome) than many previous ones.

Well, even though there are only two pages of replies, the preview has only been out a week, and there are over 3500 views, so its not entirely dead. But still, I hope more people come here and see all the great work that has been put into this!

I checked the Takshila preview and the first post on the thrid page actually is from the day after the preview, so there certainly is a drop in activity. I'm not sayn it's dead, god no!, just that less people post on the forum. If it were dead, we'd both know it :DWell, even though there are only two pages of replies, the preview has only been out a week, and there are over 3500 views, so its not entirely dead.

And before I sound too negative, I'd like to repeat: THIS IS SOOOOOOO AWESOME!!!!!! Good job guys!
The depth of this mod always amazes me. It will be so colourful and diversified when it comes out. Every faction and region gets so much tweaks and extra content. Keep up the excellent work EB Team!
