My man. Awesome.

Things i'd like to see (in no particular order): Mesoamerican civs (although, admittedly, a lot of them are probably too late for the time period in OW). An expansion pack that extends the game into the middle ages. Builders having a "Build road to..." option. Scouts being able to autoexplore...

I have a couple more dumb questions... What do the numbers under the units names (1 and 0,0,0,) actually mean? I'm guessing the zeroes are a reference to move/atk/def? If so if those values were positive would they replace the existing stat or would they add to it? Also, for adding tech...

Ok... so i'm just going to fire dumb questions at you now. Looking through the xml source files for the Byzantine Empire mod - there are references to character portraits, crests etc as one would expect, but no reference to specific files. Am I right in thinking, for example, that for something...

Thanks. I look forward to reading what is there.

Dale, is there any chance you could post here your guide on how you created the Byzantine Empire mod?

Hey all. I've noticed that I sometimes get different coloured icons - for example in the picture below i'm playing Carthage and am at war with both the Assyrians and the Babylonians. However one has a yellow sword icon and one a red sword icon. Anybody know why this is?

Having had the foresight to research the Polis tech, my youngest cat is now safely protected behind city walls.

No, in all fairness I haven't. I discovered that doing that and also founding a major religion just gave my families yet another excuse to get annoyed at me (like they needed one..), so i've mostly just concentrated on getting a major religion and sticking with that. What I had in mind was sort...

"Fun" is always subjective, I guess. Personally, I find it more addictive than Civ.

Behold Rome's moustache...

Hmm... I was thinking a global religion reserved for one Civ (which now I think about it does sound like a contradiction in terms). I don't go the Paganism route often, but it seems like it involves building shrines to various minor deities? I was thinking a major full blown religion but unique...

Is it a good idea to have a stickied thread for mod/patch ideas? Just to get the ball rolling... i'd like a mod/tweak that allows a civ with a cleric family to claim a civ-unique religion (e.g. if Egypt founds a city seat with their Cleric family they get to found the Cult of Amun-Ra instead of...

I generally find sticking to one religion is easier to manage.

Yes, the game is fun. I can't imagine any 4X fan not enjoying Old World.
