Europe in 2002

[Legions4Ever]

excellent, me ribs be tickling

 

[insurgent]

I thought you might want to see this attachment, archer, it's from an icons file I did for a Euro scenario that I never really got started on...

Looking forward to the scenario...

 

[Archer 007]

Thanks, i'll use em.

 

[insurgent]

The flag tile is too strong in colours, I think it needs to be worked on, and I'm not entirely sure about the other two alterations. But if you like them, then it's ok!

 

[Archer 007]

I'm figured out i don't know how to add them. Could i send you a copy of my icons.bmp and you add them for me?

 

[insurgent]

You just have to right click on the attached picture and select copy. Then open the Icons.bmp and choose "Paste" from the Edit Menu or press CTRL+V. Then you just move it to its right position by clicking on it and dragging it where you want it. It has to be positioned perfectly or it won't work.
But, of course, you can send it to me at mrlc@europe.com if you want, and I'll do it for you!

 

[Archer 007]

I don't know what goes where, so i just sent it to you. Thanks for all your wonderful help!

 

[insurgent]

Pas de quoi.
The icons were placed in the correct order as they were. It just had to be moved down. The background colour was different, but that is easily fixed. Besides, MS Paint is perfectly suitable for editing these files. When you have done the first versions of any image files, then you can just select "Save" and it will save it in the format that was used previously, thereby making it unnecessary to choose 256 colours and formats...
But here it is in zipped format.

 

[Archer 007]

Thanks one again.

What should each of these wonders be and who should own them?

Statue of Lilbety
Great Library
Mannathian Project
SETI

SETI - The Cern particle accelerator laboratry in Swizerland?
Mannathian Project- French nuclear testing
Great Library- MI6? The Echelon system?-(alleged top secret Anglo-USA system for monitoring worldwide communications)
Statue of Lilbety- dunno...

 

[insurgent]

Statue of Liberty - European Constitution (?) a future wonder to symbolise the actual political unity of Europe, thereby giving the advantages of the Statue of Liberty

 

[Archer 007]

Thanks! Finally i can start to wrap this thing up. Any ideas for the tech tree?

 

[insurgent]

Any progress?

 

[Archer 007]

Haven't had any time to work with school starting back and all. Also, I don't have that many good ideas for the tech tree. Any suggestions?

 

[Archer 007]

Someone help with unit and tech ideas!

 

[Greeny]

well, what unit and tech ideas do you have so-far?
Then we can add to them.

 

[insurgent]

I suggest not using the tech system at all. Just use it to give the civs different designated units and trigger them through the events etc. Building a tech tree is difficult, time-consuming, and all-in-all it doesn't make that much difference whether there is a tech tree or not...

 

[Archer 007]

insurgent, i think you right on this. Now that you bought it up, their's three reasons.

1)City Size and Trade in Modern Error would make you finish tree to quickly.
2)Would sway tech advantage to civs that dont realizily have a chance at gaining a tech lead.
3)Too much time would be needed.

 

[insurgent]

Exactly!

I did that in my scenarios, have a look at them if you want to see my method...

 

[Archer 007]

insurgent, ive played on of your scenarios one, i think it was about israel or something middle eastern. quite good i might add. have played any of the other ones. im now trying to think of some units. i got about 2/3 of them ready, but i just cant figure out what to put for the rest. what kind of planes and armor does germany, poland, and spain use. could someone post some unit art for them.
