Well, since the last announcement was made a month ago then I'll have to start a new one. Keep on uploading and posting!

 

[Takhisis]

Aaaand announcement is posted. I want to do something special for the New Year, to commemorate the fact that we've had Conquests out for ten years now. Any suggestions are welcome, but a 'best of' would be an interesting idea to implement.

Edit: it's exactly 10 years today as a matter of fact. Weird.

Happy Birthday Conquests! I wish I'd known: I'd have made a Volcano cake. I don't have a gift, but anyone who hasn't already should visit the Decade Awards' Jury Awards Thread where we had a little celebration of the C&C forum's tenth anniversary, two years ago. While there, stop by the Decade Awards Hall of Fame to see the fan's choices for outstanding units and graphics over the last Decade.

As I remember it, 'Conquests' was to Civ III what 'Test of Time' was to Civ II: a huge boost in graphics, playability, and modding potential. The LM terrain alone doubled the size of the terrain files; without it, the city terrain in the "Super Scenario" for instance, wouldn't have been possible.

that long ago?

 

[DJ Bonebraker]

that long ago?

I know how you feel... Fun fact: I started on the Final Fantasy mod about 5 months after Conquests came out, and when I realized how long I've been working on that one mod, I was like damn! Thats a long time to be working on a game mod.

 

[Jorsalfare]

that long ago?

Brilliant! That's exactly what I was thinking too... Funny though, that since I lost my password to Steam, I haven't missed playing Civ5 for a second. I rarely play Civ4, but keep returning to mod and play Civ3.
