Excellent! This is a great idea. Think we can get it stickied?

[comagoosie]

Excellent! This is a great idea. Think we can get it stickied?

Thanks for the self esteem boost This is not likely to happen as after Rome has been release this thread would become irrevelent, but until then.

400 views and 1 reply! I have seen threads with 11 views and 10 replies, what is wrong with this picture! Say anything, say you like how much effort I put into it, containing all the links and the thanking the people

So huh, what's it going to be

btw is there really no more news out there besides replicas of the ones I posted.

[comagoosie]

Updated! Now with date of article. Next step, putting articles in chronological order.

[shasla6]

Nice work, thanks.

[spl]

It's become a full time job! Keep up the good work!

[comagoosie]

It's become a full time job! Keep up the good work!

Thanks. I have to scour the internet for articles that aren't copies of each other, it is hard work, I should of foresaw that

With advertising in my sig, in theory, it would bring people here to post new articles, in theory

[lordy80011]

Hey -- thanks for making this information available! I will post anything new that I locate, although I have to admit that I haven't seen at least half of your links, so that may not betide well for my future contributions.

This is a group effort, anything is welcomed

Updated, added Paradox's information on EU:R.

btw if anyone has an idea on how I should sort my links, please feel free and express it.

[comagoosie]

Updated! now with hot discussion threads, done on the # of views and replies a thread has gotten.

btw not putting stickied threads on there, just in case anyones argues

[iBaLkiD]

Wow, you sir are a true asset to the community!

Tip top thread!

[comagoosie]

thxs

In truth I am surprised, this thread gets a lot of views but no reviews. I thank any and all lurkers who are adding up the # of views this has gotten. Again any ideas are welcomed.

[comagoosie]

Updated!

Added the others category (with only wikipedia under it )
added the Johan Quote thread. I know this goes against what I said, but there have been threads out there that could of been answered if that person went there.
added a norwegian site (that needs translating).
added translation of norwegian site (but rough translation)
Might of done something else, hard to keep track of everything

[th3freakie]

I'd like to subscribe to this thread. Done.
Cheers for the idea and work, comagoosie.

By the way, that wiki article could use a picture. Box art perhabs?

thxs, yeah the box art would look great, but I am not a wiki editor, that is where you come in

mini-update.
Fixed broken link - the 27 screens one. Went to the site and they took off 17 pics. Wonder why? So the next best thing is 24 screens.
Also put Paradox's information on EU:R under "other".

[comagoosie]

Wow, the new screeny link has 62 screenshots! Amazing, look at all that eye candy.

Also added another thread to discussion forums.

[The Boss]

Yeah alot of new screenies never seen before!

[DaPacemDomine]

The IGN screenies are sensational. Some of the most important things it reveals are:

Family trees. With spaces for spouses. Does this mean characters can be married off a la Crusader Kings?!

The scenario selection screen. The very last one seems to begin with the coronation of Caesar Augustus, so the game DOES extend into the Imperial age! Imperial Age (and possibly *gasp* BYZANTINE!) player mods, here we come?

yeah, there were a ton of new ones that are very important and revealing.

EDIT: can't see pic

EDIT: can see pic and took pic out of post

[comagoosie]

Update!

Nimic was kind of enough to translate the norwegian preivew and into 2 parts.

pilis found a video of a demonstration and it is on Youtube in two parts.

twcAxeman started a thread of a "wish list" of factions.

enjoy!
