History/Research: The Peoples of the Steppe

Good stuff.

Nomad Town:

[xeofox]

the optimal design of the city! well made! 
In the next level of town a yurts will disappear!

[Bercor]

I was thinking of keeping them, but outside the city walls, similar to what Europa Barbarorum's team is going to do:

What do you think?

[xeofox]

Nice!    but the yurts as modern (or medieval)

[Bercor]

I'll be using your yurts, not theirs.
Just posted the pic to roughly demonstrate how it looks.

[xeofox]

Good!
but... maybe we make for Sarmatians settlements (separately) yurts-like medieval (and modern)? 

[Bercor]

I don't think it's possible to have two different models of settlements of the same tier in the same culture (at least if it isn't a custom settlement). What I could do, if you make some "modern" yurts, is to use them in the nomadic large town and city, instead of the current ones.

[xeofox]

Then maybe drop the sanctuary from the stratmap? A unified system for Sakas, Dahae. The differences will be only inside of the city.

[Bercor]

Yeah, the sanctuary won't be present in the next tiers.

[xeofox]

If we do not make a special sanctuary for saka, the mound (for strat map), the better at any tier (stratmap) sanctuary (of all nomads) does not show. Only inside of town.

[Bercor]

Why, I don't think we need to be so historical that we can't have a Dahae sanctuary in the nomadic settlements. Besides, what do I put in the center, if not the sanctuary?

[xeofox]

Kurgan for Sakas or void for sakas.
...or void for all nomads- it is the most simplified history.
the sanctuary of the Ustyurt single cases. And the Sakas mounds- thousands.

High levels of the cities of the steppe nomads- it's all fiction, falsification! We can show the soldiers and the sanctuary.

[Bercor]

Ok. Then should I put the that mound in the middle of the settlement?

[xeofox]

...I don't think we need to be so historical...

my other tasks I can't see
