Its a pretty well known map most people already know were it is.

Hey Yoda,

are u gonna make a PTW version ?

With the new Civs and units included and the extra civs you can have (+ the flat map), it could really be great.

If i have time yes, but right now im busy making other things so dont expect it to be soon though.

Wow maybe somethings messed up with comp or something, but it only allows me to play as Japan. That's crap. I want to play the european theater.

You can change in the editor which civ you play as.

As for your signature, all of the Ancient times scenarios are listed in the Scenario File Library.

 

[Allarion]

My sig is still acurate. I'm still searching for a Good one.... not to say it isn't here just that im still looking for it.

 

[Procifica]

I never said it wasn't accurate...just giving you a place to look for Ancient times scenarios.

Hmmm...Yoda, as to your request for suggestions about the Red Sea Kingdoms, I think I may be of some help. Perhaps you could rename it to the Axumite Empire/Kingdom and do some fiddling around with cities. For instance, you could give egypt Gebel Adda and Dongola and then expand the Axumite kingdom/empire southward. giving it about 3 cities in addition to meroe and perhaps a colony or two as peoples within the sphere of influence of many Ethiopian kingdoms have often paid tribute. You could add Zeila on the northern coast of Somalia at about X:84 and Y:168, the capital Axum would be on the tile X:74 and Y:160, with Yeha being at about X:76 and Y:158 and the port city of adulis being at X:77 and Y153. You could include Yemen with the Axumite empire/kingdom, but it was not conquered until about 500 AD and it would render the scenario inaccurate. Though I'm not sure if Meroe was under Axumite control at 250 B.C., it was conquered by a Pre-Axumite kingdom (capital Yeha, you could use that as a capital if you wanted as the beginning of the Axumite empire varies, from somewhere around 300 BC to 50 BC) at 800 BC, I think, but I am not sure. I know it sounds like I'm trying to dictate what you do, but I really think that the addition of an Axumite kingdom/empire would make the scenario more interesting and more historically accurate. Also, I agree with whomever said that it would be better to have an ancient Asia separate from the rest of the world.

Btw, I'm not sure of the leader of Axum at that time, but you could always go with the generic Ethiopian leader of Menilek I from a long time before that, not sure when, but in the 1000's of years BC

Another edit-Axum Conquered Meroe in (circa) AD 350, but I'm still pretty sure that it was part of the Pre-axumite empire before that

Good to have a scenario in my favourite period of history.Almost replayed the 1st Punic War,took Sicily and Corsica from Carthage,but war wearniess got too heavy.
As already suggested Gaul and Germanics are really needed,that way Europe is just too easy to settle for the Romans.Also Iberians/Lusitanians and Numidians could be added.
And a little correction:Bactra was a quite integral part of the Seleucid Empire.

 

[Yoda Power]

Thank you for your suggestions, i think i will update the scenario soon.

 

[Yom]

Btw, I have a question, I noticed you took the map from an existing world map and used just a part of the world map. I am making a scenario myself, and I wanted to know if you could tell me how to do that. I want to use the same map, but cut out Asia east of Iran, Africa south of the coastline states (i.e., Ghana, Togo, etc.) and Europe north of Spain. Could you tell me how to do this?

Btw, if you have PTW, you can get rid of the annoying mountain range to prevent X-wrapping by going to "Map" at the top and then unchecking "Allow X-wrapping"

no did not do that, and it cannot be done. This map was createt by el mencey and modified by me.

yes i know, and i will do that in the next version.

You should also add the following cities for the following civs.

Sahel: Nok (X:27, Y:169), Timbuqtu (X:23, Y:155)

Carthage: Saguntum (X:26, Y:96)

You might not need to include Timbuqtu because you can always settle there later. You should add Nok though. Nok was what actually concluded that their was a civilized civilization in the Sahel region of Africa.

Saguntum was an important Carthagenean city in southern Spain. You could also place New Carthage a little south of Saguntum.

I posted this so that Sahel will start off further along. You should also add what Yom had suggested.

You scenario is great like all your other ones. Keep up the good work.

thanks i will do that

The scenario would be superve if you added the Celts/Belgae/Gauls and the Nordic/Germanic tribes as well. The Celtic/Belgae/Gaul towns are on the Civ2 scenario and are in purple (Celts color). I'd give you the coordinates but I happened to have lost the CD.

I can't wait til you finish because your scenarios are the greatest of them all. I don't have PTW though so I couldn't really play it anyhow. If you can post a follow-up with all the coordinates of the cities you have added and the civs and etc. You don't have to do this but it'd be really cool.

Im glad you like it, but I have to finish the new MEM version+other stuff before I even will begin to work on this.

Btw, I found out who was the ruler of Axum in 300 B.C. It was Yekuno Amlak, and the Title should be Negusa Nagast (king of kings). Thanks for adding the stuff we suggested, I appreciate it, can't wait till you're done
