Actually, absolutely not. I got the idea after reading LouLong's thread at CivFanatics (this is not a copy of his thread), but I wasn't aware there was such a thing at MZO too.

I'll see about it (and probably will contact PanzerXXXII) tomorrow. Now it is really time for bed )

What is MZO ?

There are 2 more confirmed Scenarios.
The second is a Roman Era scenario. There is no writing about it, but you can clearly see it in the screenshots.

In this screenshot,

the unit centered on is called "Legionary III" with stats 6/5/1. Apparently the Roman legions get better as the game progresses. I wonder if they improve in the same way the Daimyo improves in the Shogun scenario, or if you simply produce better Legionaries when newer techs come in. Any clues?

Very nice !

I prefer your look a lot !
Maybe I will try to do something along those lines at civfanatics but I am not sure it is posible.
Good I checked here before copying my thread here as well

Don't hesitate to steal my code like hell The better the lists, the merrier for the users (and the better the reputation of the French Team )

Edit: MZO is Master Zen Online, a forum created by an Apolytoner, which has really flourished during Apolyton Great Downtime in April.

having the suffix 'III' i'd say it's a regular upgrade path. e.g. inventing woven armour will produce Legionary II with, let's say, 4/5/1 ...

And a pretty cool place in its own rite.

i guess it's iron.

looks like steel or aluminium, but neither was known during the rise of rome

[Spiffor]

I say it's silver.
And I'm not sure it is a Firaxis' scenario. In the article, they mentioned 6 scenarios, and the inclusion of this one would mean there is no WW2-Europe scenario, which would be strange since tons of graphics are already made for that one.

Besides, you'll notice no new graphics in the Rome scenario, and names like "Legionary III" and such. IMHO, this is a well done fanmade scenario, rather than a Firaxis one.

[Louis XXIV]

The article is wrong

There are 9 scenarios.

I did (sort of I installed hyperlinks, something I wanted to do but was too lazy to)...

Why French team, are you French too ? I mean you seem to live in Germany ! Oder habe ich ein Fehler gemacht ?

If that's so, then its available now somewhere online. But I can't find it here or on CivFanatics. I'd love to play it. Anyone know where it is?

And actually there are some new graphics. That resource south of Croton that everyone is asking about. And don't the cities look different? Of course, both of these can be player-modded. But would Atari choose a fan-made scenario as a screenshot for us to drool over? Doesn't seem likely. But I can only speculate.

[Merepatra]

All the screenshots released are from one of the Conquests scenarios or the Conquest random game, though many are from early versions which may have placeholder art still in place. And there are 9 full Conquests.

[sabrewolf]

merepatra, are you a beta tester?

i thought only residents of the US were chosen for testing.

[Merepatra]

I work for BreakAway, and beta testers were chosen from all around the world.

well, nice to have an insider

(how about some more details? )
