Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Will you add this or that faction?
A: It's very unlikely that we will add any faction as this point. Splitting existing factions is more likely.

Q: Will you add this helmet/sword/shield/armor?
A: Hard to say, for the most part we know what we want to add to the mod but lack the time and/or patience to do it.
If you're asking for something that's not accurate to our timeframe then it's a big no-no. The source code is available so you can add those yourself.

Q: New patch/version when?
A: When it's done.

Q: Is the mod dead?
A: Almost.

Q: Will you add *this* language?
A: No, we're not going to make any translation in the foreseeable future.

Q: All the villages are empty and I can't recruit units, what can I do?
A: Every ~3 days villages produce new units and every ~10 days they send their troops to reinforce their associated town or castle emptying the recruitment pool until new units are produced, villages can also lose their troops if looted or being conquered. In a future update we'll try to improve this system so it's less likely to run into empty villages for all the factions at once.

Q: I can't seem to be able to upgrade troops, how does it work?
A: When you are part of a faction you can head up to a town or castle and select the barracks menu (if recruits are available) to re-train some of the lower tier units into the tier above them. For example:
Hastati -> Loricati Hastati
Principes -> Loricati Principes
Etc...
I will work on providing a proper list, this is a work in progress so some factions have very few units to be retrained and the Celts have none currently due to an oversight.
