Scenario Project: The Persian Empire

The wonder splash for a satrapy could simply be a map of the region in question.

And you could force their location via the "resource in city radius" prereq and invisible 0f0s0c "province" resources. Eg, you'd have a "Bactria" resource underneath Bactra, and a "Media" resource underneath Ecbatana/Agbatana/Hagmatana.
 
And the Britain-India map with diferent perspective, wasn't you that were mading?

Sorry im not sure I understand you:confused:

Lab Monkeys Arab Knight is a mix of the Rider and the Immortal, I think it's good enough, but more units are always appreciatet ofcause;)
 
I remember that CTP2 had a 'Fall of Persia' scenario there they had some 'arabs' and other barbarians. It would be cool, if you bring them in with few cities and army to rampage to you. I'm talking of the city of Sanaa for example. But also other clans in the northern region (all the -stan's states). But you'd have to disable building cities for them. Just a suggestion

Yoda Power, please PM when you need them, I going to unsubsribe to this thread, I don't want all these excess emails :)
 
mitsho-Arabia is going to be impassible, so there will be no arabians.

Costa-I think the only problem about the Arab Knight is the sword, but the clothes looks fine with me.

Unexisted-Sure:)
 
Talking about mercenaries, the most usual mercenaries in the persian empire were the greeks. I remenber to read about greek mercenaries fighting against Alexander the Great.
 
I want to compile a list of resources. This is what I got so far(in random order):

Iron
Horses
Gold
Silver
Timber
Oils
Incense
Wool
Oasis
Cattle
Wheat
Fish
Ivory
Spices?

and..

le' map update:

The map's looking good this far.

I don't know if the spice trade was of any importance already back in those days, but Spice might provide an extra incentive to track all the way east to India.

Oh, and no reaction on my suggestion for "province" resources (post #41)? I still thinks it's a nifty idea ...
 
TLC-sorry I didn't see that part. Actually thats how I planned to do in the first way;)
 
Well I havent heard about battles between the Persians and the Arabs so I dont think so.

BTW here is the civ list:

Persia
Media
Babylon
Lydia
Athens
Sparta
Neutral Greeks(please help me with a better name)
Macedon
Egypt
Indians
Masagatae

Scythia will be barbarians since they were never conquerd, and I decided to use Conquest victory.
 
You could call 'Neutral Greeks' plain old Greeks :D Also, Masagatae is spelt Massagetae.

Also, if this is about Cyrus the Great's Persia, Media should already be conquered by them as they were overthrown and as the last Median king was an a-hole the people and armies joined Cyrus against him (probably the reason why the Medes weren't massacred by the Persians). IIRC, Cilicia was also a kingdom of the time.

And the map is looking good. Just remember though that until sometime after Alexander the Great coqnuered Persia, the Amu Darya river also flowed into the Caspian Sea (check the map posted on page one of this thread about one of the two most likely courses of the river)
 
Ok I'll put Cilicia in too.

Media will be in, Cyrus did conquer/annex it in only one year, but there was still battles between his and Astyages armies. Also it wouldn't as fun if you start with 1/3 of the landmass.
