Hope this helps!

Yes, I think my namesake was spelled Belisarius. Screen name is more a merging of names but guess it should have been billisarius to be "correct".

Hey, it worked! Thanks the100thballoon.
Couple notes to troymap.zip. The resources are all wrong on this map. No effort was made there.
On this map:
[city name] indicates modern name of a bronze age site (BA names unknown)
(city name) indicates classical name
city name (city name) or bronze age (classical) sometimes appears on the map
I won't swear that every city on the map is actually in the city lists.
Caveats:
Some city locations are very approximate, Ithaka and Hittites especially.
Phrygians.... well, you try to find verifiable bronze age Phrygian cities. It can't(?) be done. This is just a best effort but at least consists of Persian period or earlier. Fwiit classical names Cotiaeum and Midiaeum I have unhellenized/latinized as Cotys' Town and Midas Town or some such, which is the meaning of the names.
Regarding Civs:
Lycians (brown, southeast) these cities are either certain bronze age or probable. Lycian name rather than classical.
Arzawans, (orange) were probably the classical Carians and that is where I have put them.
Maeonians are classical Lydians and in central anatolia.
Only fringe, client states of the Hititte empire appear on this map.

I would have preferred that every city on this map be verifiable bronze age and in its original, native name. That would produce a rather naked map though and this one has bare spots enough. This is really still a work in progress, hope you find it useful though.

im checkin it out now. thanks a billion for attempting it. bbl! i have a new unit to look at!

part two, cloud with the lightning effect which was done as a spell by someone. I'll double check and post credits later in the evening.

PS. I never said I was good at this

these are awsom! only one thing i can think to add: would you add more "lightning" to the stormbolt.flc? it seems like it needs more. or.....actually....could you make the flc longer (more frames) and have three different lightning strikes in different positions one after the other? please? haha looks great though! thanks!

I updated the city graphics, there is now transparancy.
