    Region/civ specific music

    I'm adding region/civ specific soundtracks to the mod. Probably I don't have to talk about the benefits of this to anyone here :) There are a couple ways to do this, I think I would prefer to have it based on primarily the civ itself (as against of it being map/position/province or religion...

    Diplo music of RFCE

    I would like to improve the diplo music in RFCE, with also collecting info about the used ones in the mod. So the 2 goals of this thread: Identify the already used diplo music (where it is notable, e.g. Prussia, Novgorod, Aragon). Suggest new diplo music for the mod (replacing currently used...

    Georgia, one of the worst civ choices!?

    A couple quotes from the other thread, this deserves a separate conversation: It's always bad when a civ appears on the roster for the wrong reasons, pushing back way too many better candidates, and eventually resulting in some of those great civs being left out. But it's even worse in this...

    Resource updates

    I plan to do some improvements on the resource roster. While we already have a fairly big number of resources, I would like to include the most significant missing ones. Like Citrus and Camels as actual resources on the map (the Middle-East and North Africa could really use some region-specific...

    Turn/timeline changes

    It had been brought up a couple times now, and I always agreed: Turn progession does seem too quick in the first half of the mod. I have been toying with the idea of adding a couple more turns for a while. Now with the upcoming Arab revisions we have another reason, so I think I have decided to...

    Improvements in the unit roster

    While the RFCE unit roster is not bad per se, I see a lot of difficulties. Both logically and for gameplay. For starters, let's get together all the possible units which is redundant or might be introduced to the mod. Exact tech is not imporant right now, only the historic time where it should...

    Egypt as a full civ

    As it came up recently, I plan to add a couple new civs to the mod. Egypt is one of them according to my current plans. It's the most controversial one though, because of the huge overlap with the Arab civ. So this is mainly a brainstorming thread, to see if it really is feasible to have them...

    Wonder balance and new wonders - post 1.5

    Well, the title says it all. Collecting ideas for new wonders/effects, with the goal also being a better balance. In my opinion many of the current wonders are way too powerful. So I plan to do a bigger overhaul of the wonder effects soon. This won't happen for 1.5 though. Also there is room...

    Alternatives for preset cities

    The current plan is to have some indy/barb city spawns with alternatives, to increase replayability of some civs, and to be able to represent more important cities to some degree throughout the timeline of the mod. For example instead of a given indy city spawning in 100% of the games, we can...
