Hi there! Good to have you back. :) Also congrats regarding the hotfixes to WAW!! If I can find the time I will surely take a look at it. So... my post will be kinda long, therefore I hope that you can bear with me. This is my take on the units, in general. Also, my points are mostly based on...

Here are my preliminary thoughts on the Units... The first point I would like to make is that the quinquereme should be the True UU for both the Romans and the Carthage. Practically the quinquereme was used by the Roman in the later stages of the First, and whole of the Second and Third Punic...

Thanks for answering the questions, and welcome back!! I mainly agree with the answers, though I have some comments. I will also touch upon them or re-visit them in my next posts. That is a very good point. The leaders I have mentioned are the ones at the start of the scenario. However, the...

Hi all, Good start to the project!! I have made some preliminary research on the civs and their leaders. I will also ask some questions concerning the addition of some other civs as city-states. I agree with the list of “Playable Civs”. Also, I think that Pergamum should be playable because of...

Thanks for laying out your current projects and the phases they are in. In addition to this, thanks for the kind words!! :) When you are working on other projects, I will think about possible answers to the questions you have posed and re-read some of the comments in the 2nd Punic War thread. I...

Very late p.s. I have just noticed your Second Punic War project, subscribed to it. Needless to say, I would love to contribute with ideas...

Great to hear that projects are moving forward and there are other projects on the horizon. It is always good to be inspired by something and someone and pursue that project. I can sympathise with the interlocking mods and going back to your older work. I only worked on one project (no coding)...

I totally agree with getting sick of a project. I'm an aspiring academic, so there are long and short term projects. I have to admit that sometimes I present half-baked ideas in my projects then return to them and improve them... The bright side of the whole deal is that the effort you show...

Yeah, for sure you can use that one for the "Great Game" scenario and the WW1 Scenario. Except for the official dimensions, the flag has been more or less the same. This is also the official stance, even for the pro-Ottomans now (found an official statement on that one). You are absolutely...

I hope that you are somehow better now. The "sneeze radar" is the new normal I guess. I have the same issue. Always good to see the modders and the players work with the same motivations, alternate history, learning about history, mixing both etc. The answer to the flag question might come as...

I hope that you are better now. It is always good to get some rest and regroup before moving on. I am happy that it is not COVID, and since that is the case you can always solve the problem with a hotfix, maybe in a later update. Yes, I agree with the 600-year history argument. From that point...

Hi again. A nice Sunday to you! Concerning the unit names, I would go for the Turkish versions, and not the Ottoman WW1 ones. 2 reasons. First, when you think about it the Ottoman Empire had only 53 game years whereas the Republic of Turkey has already had 97 (we can safely presume that there...

This is a pretty good list. Here are my views on it. Changes will be in blue. I presume you envision the units as regiments. So I have kept the "Alay" and "Alayi" in most cases. The ones for WW2 would fit WaW. I have also written the Ottoman-specific names for the units. Airborne Division =...

It's great to hear that you feel fine about that. As I have always said it's a pleasure helping out. It will be a fun Turkish playthrough for anyone I'm sure. I think that the "OS", "TS" and "TCG" differentiation is a great idea!!! It would surely reflect the trajectory of the naming patterns...

Hi again! I have conducted research concerning the admirals and commanders of the Ottoman Army and the Ottoman Navy. Since the latter was kind of small, it didn’t produce good results. There were battles and wars after 1900 but the navy part of them was not that significant. Also after a while...
