The Roman empire (pg 1 and 8) [Advanced Idea](small break)

[Ogrecrusher]

Lone.prophet I like your graphics ability, but you have got to be the rudest person I've seen in the foundry, and I read a lot more than I post.

[Lone.prophet]

and whats the point of that post?

[DiM]

please take the monkey off. that's crappy looking on the map.

i always said signatures should be barely visible on the map. look at any painting or any artwork. the signature is a small thing in a corner not a monkey and stuff like that. that's simply bad taste. people want to see the map not an oversized monkey

also the scroll looks very bad. instead of copy pasting a scroll found on the internet try making your own. it will look better, blend better and have a nicer feeling.

[Lone.prophet]

poeh in which stage is the map????

so where do you comment on than?????

[DiM]

i have no idea what you said

[Lone.prophet]

this is in map ideas so you comment on the map and if you wanna play it

NOT ON THE GRAPHICS

[MrBenn]

Why is everyone comenting on the monkey comment on the map or go away

You put the monkey on your map... and people are saying they don't like it.

Others have made comments, or tried to engage you in discussion about historical accuracy, and you've managed to upset/offend at least one person in the process - as a result of this, people are "going away", and not contributing to your map.

[Lone.prophet]

as the process say in sertain stages sertain recoirment needs to be kept in the ideas the graphics isnt part of that so anything graphic related (monkey, scroll) doesnt need to be adressed right now

[Lone.prophet]

lol it seems everyone is scared now

[DiM]

doesn't necessarily need to be adressed but if somebody comments on the monkey and the scroll you must either change them or give a valid reason for not changing them. saying it's still in ideas and graphics aren't the issue is not the way to do it.

Lets get the last image on this page

Recommendations

1. Make the ships in the oceans able to attack the two or three ports closest to them / in the same ocean or sea.

2. Give a bonus for holding ports and/or ships.

3. Put some attack lines and real bonuses and you'll get comments.

4. Remove the monkey. It's an eyesore and has no place on the map. A signature is supposed to be modest.

5. move the cathargo port so it doesn't look like it touches sicily

I realy want to help that these map be acurate,and present what name of these topic says-ROMAN EMPIRE.
Only big problem is that you ignore these and want to create map who not present roman empire.
Its yours decision,do you want help or not.
If you want proper names and proper provinces,just say YES,if you not then you say NO,these is mine last atempt to help.

wtf are you talking about?

which names are wrong?

What these word means,another insult,like before when you say that person is retarded,be just little pro,and say simple"yes,aim want your help,to get more informacion abouth Roman empire" on in nice way say"no,i dont need yours help",belive me people will be much pleased with these words,insted these words.
Big number of people here(including Mod squad),speak with me in flame conversation(Keyogi-Qwert fight),but i never insult other person,talking how is"stypid,retarded,moron" like some people call me.
People give hes opinion,and you must find valid reason,or explanation to apply or refuse some sugestion. In that way everybody will be happy,and most importan, you will be happy to.

really come on, you dont understand my post post or what, i dont have to remove the monkey now it is about the gameplay and if the map can be played now. i know the monkey wont make it if it wanna get forged or quenched, as i do with the scroll which is just an impression which have to come there.

^^ happy now is this a more nicer post?

(and people plz dont feel offended over the internet it just isnt worth it)

[Lone.prophet]

ok the ports of dover and gribraltar connect to both lands the overlap so its the idea they overlap the lands on both sides

[bonobo`s son]

i like the connection in gribraltar and dover.

[Kaplowitz]

maybe make the text in Dacia white.
Also i think a Balearen---Sardinia---Sicily---Crete---Asia connection might help

[Lone.prophet]

^^ ill think i make the blue lighter than

and what do you mean about the connections?

[Kaplowitz]

I made it in Red.

[a-person1192]

nice addition to the monkey there kaplowitz, but he is right adding those connections would make the gameplay easier. also as it has been said before, make the ships attack several close ports or all ports.

[Qwert]

Can you tell me from where you get information,and maps for these Roman empire map.
Sorry but these is very annoing,and in only one look i find mistake-Pannosia and Constant(these terittory is yours production,its not present real province)
Trabzon is wrong name for these port.
Mauritania Caesariensis,Mauritania Tingitana(these is proper names for two provinces,but you put all in one provinces)
Also mising-Poenniae,Cottiae,Maritimae,Dalmatia,Bithynia et Pontus,Germania Inferior,Germania Superior,Taurica..............
Aim not work complete scan of yours map,but some other names also not proper write,so you have very hard research work on these map.
If aim corect,these map must present Roman empire,when Trajanus whas emperor(117 ad).
You have many mistakes,but you have plenty time to fix these.

[Lone.prophet]

well i merged some territories:
mauritania (merged)
Moesia
Narbonensis has some alpes provinces
belgica + Vindelicia are germania (should be undone)
and other territories are spelled in some other ways cause all (some type error, some i dunno cause other sources say other spelling mistakes)

and abouut the sea routes i dont think it is of use if you want to go from 1 side to the other you should take the ships and with them there would simply be to much in my opion

Its look that you want to change history,can you explane to me why you create new,and erase real provinces,i hope that you have logical reason.
Like i say,these map must present Roman empire from Emperor Trajanus(117 ad),because its in big expand.
You can find in Google images,a large map info from these period with all provinces.
So please dont create something what not exist in these period.

[Lone.prophet]

it isnt 100 ad its 300 ad

[Qwert]

not 100 but 117 Ad
300 AD
Then you must erase some provinces.
I will check these now

[Qwert]

These is roman empire from 117 ad.
First i realy dont know why you want to create Roman Empire from 300 Ad(these you must explane to me)
Also you dont give me yours site source for these map.


Emperor Trajanus Roman Empire 117 AD
