I think it was Lusikka who wanted this wonder. I presume it is going to be a wonder, because I think Spartan odd mechanics of military training and acquiring citizenship are held as something to wonder about these days.

How Lusikka is going to use it? Perhaps barracks in every city?

Have fun,

Ukas

Awesome, I know just the place for this in my mod. Great work Ukas! :hatsoff:
 
I just came on line to look for an early age acadamy or school. Yours was the first post, so I don't have to look. Thanks, it's perfect.
 
I like this... I like this very much... how to use it though... I could make this a Greek wonder that spits out Hoplites... but the Greeks aren't a warrior civilization really (in Civ3 terms).... or it could be a city improvement that spits out Hoplites... either way...

Hmm... in my mod, I'm trying to give all civilizations improvements that reflect their civ traits... Greece is the standard Commercial and Scientific...

So I usually try to make civ-specific buildings have a primary and a secondary function... the primary function is whatever the normal city improvement would do. The secondary function is the bonus given based on the civilization's traits.

For example: no matter what primary function the Aztec buildings have whether to pacify civilians, give scientific boosts, or increase tax revenue, they all have a war benefit as well. Similarly, the American buildings, regardless of their function, also give a small productivity boost.

So maybe this Greek military building can have an added scientific benefit...
 
Very nice:goodjob:

I would make it produce a Spartan Hoplite every 5 turn or so.

Dom Pedro: That's a hard nut, because the building is very military... perhaps something commercial then.

I could... I don't know. I mean, did they do anything else at these schools besides fight? Did they give them anything resembling an education?
 
Now that I have added it I can explain how I did it:
Spartan War School - Barracks to every city on continent, available with Warrior Code
Art of War - Halves upgrade costs
Da Vinci's Workshop - Douple's production in city

And now that you have done this, I would have another request (and now you think "OMG! Not again!" :p ): One day I had the king idea for a wonder: a statue for Elvis Presley! Haven't thought how to use it though, but it would be nice to have. ;)
 
Very nice! :) I think it could also be used as a regular barrack...

...and yeah an elvis statue would be very cool! :king: <== elvis
"ahaha... yeah... slam baby... come on... ahublahublahublaho..."
(the elvis wannabees in gta 2, you get $100 000 if you hit all of them with your car, or at least i think so...)
