Vae Victis - Development Diary III

[Tai-Pan]

Nice update

And this is how the icon will look

Oh well I'm sold now... but seroiusly it is pretty cool. Way cooler than EU3/NA/IN icons.

[nachinus]

Will we be seeing pirates in this expansion (as in physical, marauding pirate fleets)? I know when VV was announced, it stated laws against piracy:




That quote is from the VV announcement.

Or have I missed a point completely?

I hope that pirates are somehow implemented!. They were a really serious issue in that time and the cause of some wars. I can't believe they didn't depict them in the original game...

Pirates were modded into EU3 (yes, I know there are privateers and pirates, but they are lame, compared to the Pirates of the Barbary Coast events).

Someone made a pirate event mod for Rome, don't know how good it was though.

Certainly prettier than the original one.

[performer]

Looks great!

Just one question: are there also enhancements for modders (like more free traits and event conditions?)

[Von Uber]

This is looking better and better.

[IvanV]

As unhappy as I was with EU:Rome I can't stay mad at you Paradox. I pre-ordered mine. The expansion looks great.

[saneman]

you know i might actually go back to this game after this.

will you offer cd for it?

It is going to be download only.

[jorian]

interesting, but i hope some cases justify expelling people without increasing tyranny, I think here especially on what background/traits the person to be expelled has

[Duke of Bavaria]

I was happy to have skipped ROME, but with this expansion i will surely go for a COMPLETE version if it ever comes.

[Darkarbiter]

Looks good!

However, the dark blue Religious Party on the second screenshot, really hurts the eyes (at least mine). You might want to consider changing the colour.

Well hopefully you'll be free to mod in new parties... which ofcourse will mean you should be able to choose their colour, and if you could do that the old parties colour would most likely be moddable too.

Very nice, with the every action having a reaction from the parties (although not necassarily every one). The thing I'm most impressed with though is "birth province" and "current location", this could definitely be interesting.

Wow, this is becoming quite a unique game. I always thought the problem with Rome was that it's essentially EU3 lite, now this is something completely else.

Yeah, EU3 never had a senate so I am thrilled to see how it will be implemented in VV.

We'll see how long I can go against the seante without any consequences

[Octawian]

I see that they improvements some interface. I hope that game will more addictive than so far.

I agree, it looks like it'll become a nice mix between Crusader Kings and EU3, and that's great.
