Yeah, I'm a stranger. I travelled across lands and seas, across the ages too, all of this to ask you some help. You know Age of Kings? Yes, you know, the "son" of AoE... So you certainly know a bit about Age of Kings Heaven and the community around this game. And I am coming to ask you some help for one of its members. If you speak Danish, Ukranian, Lithuanian, Czech, Bulgarian or Serbian, you can help me.
But, before, a bit of explanations. Two years ago, a guy called fr steve started an ambitious project: making a total conversion pack for Age of Kings, in which all the civs would be changed in eastern european ones. If you are familiar with AoKH community, you maybe heard about Age of Chivalry, a total conversion of the same type. But after months and months of hard work, fr steve encountered a problem with his modpack: voices. You know, the sounds triggered when you select unit, that are most of the time in the language spoken by the people you play... A total conversion pack is not perfect if a polish knight speak in English, like a danish footman or a turkish horse archer! This is why the author search for people who are speaking the languages described above, to use their voices for his project, and why I'm posting this thread because he doesn't find people for these languages on AoKH forums. For more informations, or if you are interested to help him, just go on his project thread:

Also, if you know somebody who speaks one of these languages, contact fr steve via his thread. He will greatly appreciate any help.
One last thing: if you want to know why it's not fr steve himself who post this... it's because he is just a bit shy to ask something in a foreign forum.
Also, please forgive spelling mistakes and stuff like this: I'm coming from Québec, so English is not my first language.
