Nice work, Brock. However, I believe the Etruscans had (short) axemen, along with their hoplites. It may be worth considering including an axe soldier. Perhaps the "Recruit" can be a more elite Axeman.

Also, did Blunt Axe ever finish his Scythians, by chance?

Anyway, can I take Egyptians and Iberians, or not?

How can I talk to Mythos, then?

Meanwhile, let me ask you this: what ages are there in this project? And what about the availability of buildings, units, etc?

EDIT:
And what's this all about? Why are we doing this? Is it just for fun? Or is it a basis for a big mod?

[This message has been edited by GatoFedorento (edited 09-18-2006 @ 04:18 PM).]

About the ages, what is being currently considered? Those in the downloadable techtree, or the basic Stone - Tool - Bronze - Iron?

Soon here, once I complete my Assyrian profile, I'll comb this thread for info I have missed and update the original post with "completed" civs and the proper authors. If anyone wants to get in contact with me, please add me to your MSN Messenger (I RARELY use AIM): mythgamer@aol.com is my MSN messenger contact.

PS: I will acquiesce and split Celts -> Iberians / Gauls. I found that adding the Britons I can put them in the 2nd Xpack as an "enemy" of Rome, thus bringing all 3 sections of the game to a neat 12 civs.

@ Brock: I don't get your point about the Germans. If those events happened in 9 AD, then surely that's after "0 A.D.", hence the Germans should be in the 2nd expack. Likewise, the Britons go in the 2nd expack as their revolts and Romanization occurred in the A.D.
