    War of Independence 1821

    On the 25th of March 1821 ,after many failed attempts, the Greeks rebeled to overthrow the Ottoman yoke. In a war that lasted for 9 years and marked by many atrocities, although defeated at the field of battle, the Greeks, through the intervention of the Great Powers, gained their independance.

    I have created this scenario more than two years ago, but i recently decided to "update" it. Since i lost the final version to a hard drive malufunction 3 months ago (along with other things...) i had to work on a beta version which miracusly survived in one of my old hard drives.

    Perhaps it is better that way since i want to change many things. I will not post the beta version here (yet) since i don't think it is ready for the general public (If one is interested download it here www.apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25605&perpage=20&pagenumber=46 )


    Things i need
    I) I don't know how to "take" a picture from the scenario and post it here, so please help me.
    II) I have found a cool picture to have as an intro background but although i named it "title" it does not seem to work. Why? Is is too big (2,95 Megabite)? It is in JPEG format.
    III) I need a good Janisaries graphic, Egyptian flag, Egyptian uniforms and an Orthodox/Mediteranean city style. I have a book on the Egyptian army of the time but i can't find it. Aid is required.

    Faulty link. It is in the "Graphics Showcase" thread page 46.


    IV) Is there a way to post the JPEG file here so one who has available the programs required (Photoshop for instance) can form it and make it recognizable by Civ2?

      1. It needs to be in GIF format.
      2. It needs to have Civ2's 256-colour palette.

      A JPEG that's 2.95 megabytes in size shouldn't have been saved as a JPEG.

                          Crete

                          Another picture to feast your eyes upon.

                          The Cretans decide to take the matters into their own hands.


                          P.S Download the sounds at the thread "Graphics showcase" page 46.

                            Hey, I played the scenario and I like the way it plays, quite smooth. Perhaps the alliances and diplomatic issues need sorting, as the British and Russians kept sneak attacking the Greeks. Also, the graphics can be polished in several cases, but I've seen you working on them already in the other thread.

                              Really ?. You liked it ?.

                              Have you downloaded this version here?

                              Yes, the alliances will be fixed in the next version. As will pirates(barbarians) and graphics. They were ok in the final version before i lost it. I posted the scenario early so as to have comments about it. The janisaries graphic has already changed.

                              Wait for next week.
