I've decided to split your posts in the overview. Not because you're in trouble, I just decided I wanted the overview to be clean of posts. - Calisthenis of Green Day.

No Etruscan faction planned?

Looks great, anyhow. Good work!  :)

Ooh nice, I do like minimods ;)

Agreed that Etruscans would be nice too, and Illyrians are mentioned in the story but they aren't in the faction list?

You're one of the best at them, although the further development of THS seems to have passed on to Lanjane's hands :D

May I make one suggestion? Maybe change Illyria a bit, so that Salona (I think it was) isn't just a narrow strip that hogs up the dalmatian coastline (I hope that is geographically right expressed).

I'd love to help, I actually posted on TWC, but it seems I need to PM you to get any real attention :P

@Jubal & comrade
Etruscans? Maaaaayyyybeeeee. After the first release, I'll think it about a bit more.

And the lack of Illyrians in the list is a mistake.

@debux
So where do you suggest Dalmatia goes?
And you're in.

Awesome! Thanks.

I'd suggest splitting the access to the sea between both provinces, and maybe add a few more to create rebel buffers between epirus, illyria and gauls (I'm mostly worried about those last two, I doubt they ever clashed in a large scale.

No adding new regions. None.
And I'm not changing the Illyrian regions either.

And I'm not going for any history, let the Ill's and Gauls clash all they want.

There were Barbarians of sorts in northern Greece, it's not necessarily correct to call them Gauls but culturally same difference. It was fashionable in Athens to confuse the Macedonians with the "actual" barbarians, who would have been of a similar stock to the Gauls generally.

@Jubal
Progress? Good. I still need to figure out how to make the descr_terrain though, and I'm not far on that. :blink:

@debux
I'll PM you about it.

Just use the original, you only need to change the dimensions to match those of your map_regions.tga file.

Done the map files, now have to de-bug the whole thing. If anyone would like to help me with that, they'd be welcome.

How much de-bugging is involved here? Does it run at all? :P

No, it doesn't.
And a lot.

Sounds a little more intense than de-bugging. Do you get any error messages or is it a straight CTD?
