Ah, I read that as Viang Chan.

Anghor? Yeah, that should really read Nakon Wat.

The windmill is just the "bonus grassland" tile, nothing to do with the city itself.

As for the spelling, i found it on some map.

When? 50 years ago?

To the ancient Greek enthousiasts, do you think this looks right?



Keeping in mind the limitations of the game's engine of course; i cannot really create much larger gfx due to that...

I would like to ask people familiar with windmill designs, if this particular one belongs to a high-medieval era (east of Cordoba) :

I based this elven set (bottom) on a idealized and heavily stylized conception of Norse elements.

Anyone familiar with mongol medieval architecture?

I just made a yurt (on the left) but am unsure what more refined monuments they had. Could be from the early days, or the height of the mongol empire, but has to be mongol and not directly conquered people's architecture
