Why Doesn't it say all religions, Ashoka is well know for & one of the most famous aspects of Ashoka
is religious freedom.
King Piyadasi (Ashok) dear to the Gods, honours all sects, the ascetics (hermits) or those who dwell at home, he honours them with charity and in other ways. But the King, dear to the Gods, attributes less importance to this charity and these honours than to the vow of seeing the reign of virtues, which constitutes the essential part of them. For all these virtues there is a common source, modesty of speech. That is to say, one must not exalt one's creed discrediting all others, nor must one degrade these others without legitimate reasons. One must, on the contrary, render to other creeds the honour befitting them.

Heck Ashoka's favorite civic was religious freedom in civ 4,the ua & pillar of ashoka should reflect that part of Ashoka.
 
Oh, Lord Buddha. Where should I begin...

I can understand it from my perspective. While he is tolerant for all religion. Doesn't mean he did spread it to all corner of the world like he did to a certain religion. Just because he didn't slaughter them or discriminate the Vedic faith, Doesn't mean he agree with animal sacrifice they're doing for their sacred ritual. He actually banned it.

However, there is strong evidence in the edicts alone that he was a Buddhist. In one edict he belittles rituals, and he banned Vedic animal sacrifices; these strongly suggest that he at least did not look to the Vedic tradition for guidance. Furthermore, there are many edicts expressed to Buddhists alone; in one, Ashoka declares himself to be an "upasaka", and in another he demonstrates a close familiarity with Buddhist texts. He erected rock pillars at Buddhist holy sites, but did not do so for the sites of other religions. He also used the word "dhamma" to refer to qualities of the heart that underlie moral action; this was an exclusively Buddhist use of the word. Finally, the ideals he promotes correspond to the first three steps of the Buddha's graduated discourse

Wow. Scapegrace has been kind to you. But... But... B... Oh forget it....:sad:
Anyway, I'm just going to ask: pouakai(or anyone else involved): will the Greece split take more than a year?(at its current... Progression rate).
 
Technically it's already taken well more than a year. :P But I have a feeling you were asking whether it'll take a year more, in which case I'm fairly confident in saying no, it should be out within a couple months.

On an unrelated note, here's another bit of art from an upcoming mod. I wonder what the mod could be?
