Rhye's Catapult

hey rhye and co., great mod you got here. and rhye, are you actually italian? i wonder this because of your non-italian username and also your great english.
 
about colonization, it's logical that England, Spain, France, Portugal and Holland were the leaders, cos they're on the Atlantic.
I am not stopping any civ from doing it (they escape the coordinates I set anyway), just want to help the 2 biggest ones (Spain and England)
 
I like "Rhye's of History" and "Rhye's of Empires". Good feeling of continuity to those. RoH doesn't exactly make any sense but it sounds good. RoE both makes sense and sounds good. "Rhye's Earth Simulator" sounds funny. Maybe "Rhye's of Earth"? Dunno. My vote goes to Rhye's of Empires for now. But it's not perfect.
About the naming of cities with no correllation to real cities, I think a better solution would be to utilize fake names. There's a mod which I'm too tired/lazy to link to which replaces all city names with fake names generated with a program called "Everchanging Book of Names" (google it). We can use the lists from that mod (with permission) for the separate list of nonexistant cities. It will feel much better to see cities that never existed with names that never existed than basically existing cities in the completely wrong place.
 
Well, I publish the upgraded table here (and erase former one).

It is 150 turns from the end, and the game is very, very exciting! :king: :goodjob:
Check out comments in the table!
Certainly late teching is advancing too fast, though...

My vote goes for Rhye's of Empires, and I agree with Blastphemous about Rhye's Earth Simulator sounding kind of cheesey.
 
Rhye's Earth Simulation?
Rhye's Living Earth?
Rhye's Historical Atlas?
Rhye's Historical Atlas of the World?
Rhye's World Simulator?
Rhye's History Simulator?
Rhye's and fall of Civilizations?


Rhye's of Empires reminds Age of Empires too much
 
Rhye, I personally think that Blasphemous's suggestion of "Rhye's of History" is the best example of being clever but not too corny. You don't even have to think of it like "Rise of History" because it makes sense either way.

Rhye's Earth Simulator or the other names sound too boring and don't flow. That's my thought anyways.

EDIT: Oh and I almost forgot to tell you how awesome version B is. I usually play Roosevelt just to watch the computer play history out. Though, one annoying factor is when playing the recorded graph, every turn it would say "The American Empire has been DESTROYED." I hope in future patches that you could address the spawning of civilization in a different way.
 
I think that Rhye's of History is a good title, and a good representation of what this mod does. It shows the rise (and fall) of civilizations throughout history.

Just for the record, it was I who proposed "Rhye´s of History". (Post 838) :p

Blasphemous proposed "Rhye's History Simulator".

I don't like any name with "SIMUL..." ;)

ATLAS is not evoking an enough dynamic concept,
I mean, atlas is a book - still pictures...
(I like books, by the way)

As we really aim for HISTRORY here,
it is better than just WORLD... :)

RHYE'S and FALL refers to RFRE in my mind,
olus we don't intend the civs to fall...

so:

RHYE'S OF HISTORY
is a good candidate

I like the word EARTH too, so maybe we can come with something with it ;)

Rhye's of Earth - hm?

yeah I know what you mean, I'll try to fix this
There are other oddities in the replay (barbarian city names)

Rhye's History Simulator
Rhye's History
Rhye's of History
Rhye's of Earth
Rhye's History of the Earth

for me, these get to the next round of the "competition":

Rhye's of History
Rhye's of Earth
Rhye's History of the Earth
Rhye's Catapult

Rhye, have you had a look on my tech-table?
 
Hello Guys,

Is your mod available for public somewhere? I mean the version in progress.
This thread is too long to read everything :(
I loved your Civ3 mod - I expect another excellent one for Civ4 :)
 
Rhye's History of Earth would be the winner to me.

Just started a 045B game as Greece. So far I have settled three cities, Athens, Byzantion, and Sparta (on the Adriatic coast). With only one Phalanx, I am forced to defend more than in previous tries as greece on older versions (a plus I think).

I was very pleased to see India get Hinduism, Jerusalem get Judaism, and China get Buddhism. Then, with help from building the Oracle, I was able to found Christianity at Byzantion in the second century BC :)

I am anxiously awaiting to see what the barbs do to Persia in this game and how the European cities expand.
