    Anyhow, I want to conquer the map as the Malayans! The entire archipelago shall know the rule of the Malayans!
    Yeah, every help we accept! Thanks for joining our team Quirinus!
    Well, if you want, can you help us in getting entire "nama orang melayu" as much as you can? we need every name to be inculuded, (so not only histroically famous name, but also common name), oh yeah, we also need more women name for the engine sakes too...

    Sure, I'll try to do that. I'm not actually Malay myself though, so my research will probably rely heavily on what's avaliable on the Internet, if that's alright. Also, is there a deadline? =]

    EDIT: Preliminary research suggests that modern Malay names are derived from Arabic, Javanese and Sanskrit in addition to Malay... do you mean me to compile the Malay-derived names only, or the others as well? The article also says that most modern Malay names are Arabic-derived, I don't know if that was the case in the timeframe of the game?

    Also, re: the elephant bodyguards, maybe we can limit their power by limiting the number of elephants in the bodyguard to something like 3-4 (on large unit size) versus the 12 or so of the normal ele unit? Just a thought.

    Historical research going very fine, unit balancing stats are finished for infantry (still adjusting some for cav and elephants though), model is still looking for modellers, and map is adding some cities an removing some unimportant one...
    what kind of modeling are you talkng about?
    all anarchist groups in the world are oppossed to all forms of organisation and government...
    and yet they have leaders

    Full time skinner (modeler) and texturer since I can only help part-time. But I think the main help needed right now is campaign mapper. Models can come later, we can just use placeholder models right now but campaign map needs to be priority since we will need it to adjust historical accuracy and gameplay.

    I've modifying the unit list for a bit after taking a whole night testing with vanilla models, and decide to change the balancing sheet for infantry a bit:

    Histtory log :

    2010 Jan 05 -> Sonic start sketching the equation

    2010 Jan 15 -> Tweaked price of Pike (we did pay attention that pike is more exspensive than a sword, but it was more obtainable)
    Modify upkeep (the weapon maintenance are included, not just mere eating and lifestyle sustained)
    Tweaked Cost a bit (so there are still broad gap in armoured and unarmoured infantry price, but not too broad)
    Give better description for light line unit
    And getting more realistic stats for units =p --> Thanks for Cute Wolf that help me spent all night testing with vanilla models

    SHORT DESCR:
    Skirmishing tactics, primarily developed via ambush and guerilla warfare, best suited in swampy forest of central sumatera. These men are rather well skilled militia forces, but their lack of equipment as well as proper training made them suspectible to some degree of not well thinked actions.

    SHORT DESCR:
    Slings are quite ancient weapons, and not surprisingly, the men capable to using it properly are few and limited to some local tribes who still utilize them. They are cheap levies, and perhaps best used in long range bombardment without specific targets, because their missiles are quite inaccurate.
    PENALTY;
    morale -2
    Now, how about those "Sample units?"

    Default Re: Nusantara : Total War

    Anyone had something to say about guns (currently, we are testing the stats with Vanilla Bucelarii, getting them siege_missile attribute, and siege weapon type, the projectile is "flaming" bullets (actually the stone which some better slingers thrown)) -> if we set normal arrow damage to 3 and 4, so what is the required standard damage for guns? (well, about getting AP attribute, or simply give them high damage - their 160 projectile speed are allready overwhelming)
