I always presumed Legion II would be exactly like that since it will employ the Arena battle engine

I am 32, I always presumed that I am one of the oldest guys here. Glad to find out the contrary

Hi everybody, As you all know Caesar IV will be released this fall. As a die hard Rome fan I really loved its predcessor Caesar III. In contrast to the more military oriented Legion you have all the features of a living ancient Roman city. Are there many Caesar III fans among this forum community :?...

Thanks, But the old wargamer site only shows what you can change about AI diplomacy. What I am interested in is to make the AI produce more armies/units and attack more often to create more combat action in the game. I guess there were some mod instructions in the old forum, but I can??t acess it an...

Hi everybody, I still enjoy playing classic legion, but I think there is one factor that makes the game really boring after playing it for some time. The AI is for my taste a little bit to passive after a couple of turns and does not attack anymore. Is there any way to mod the AI to a more agressive...

Hi Joepking, I also encountered that problem of "sudden panic" while playing Legion. It is really a disturbing feature when all your untis break and run instantly. However, I got a different solution for you in order to handle that problem. Just alter the panic effectors for the infantry u...

Dear Iain, Have you and your team at Slitherine ever considered moving a little bit away from ancient times in future releases :?: In my opinion it would be quite interesting to see a good brand new ACW strategy game hitting the market. There is really a gap now for some time considering that most g...

Nice link,

I hope Slitherine will release a game dealing with the time of Count Belisarius in the near future.

Thanks a lot, Iain.

Hi everybody,

Has anyone the Legion text editor that used to be on wargamer.com for download? I tried to download it but like most of the other links on the site it does not work.

To be quite honest I am a little bit confused. :? So is this post referring to the units created by Lt1956 which were eventually made available for download at Wargamer and can still be downloaded from Slitherine? When I read this post I accidently assumed it is about a different set of units that w...

Dear Iain, Long, long time ago the following message was posted on the now defunct Legion HQ at Wargamer.com: "Legion Surprise (30.08.02) We have been blessed here at Legion HQ - we can now present to you ALL Legion unit animations ever created, a good deal of which never made it into the game ...

Dear Iain,

Is it possible to transfer the units from Spartan to COW to use them in the 2D battles there or would it cause a crash to the game?

Dear Iain, The US version of Legion features the Germania campaign with three new German units that are not available in the European Legion. As a frequent reader of the forum I know that for some reason the Germania campaign can't be put on the on the net as download for copyright reasons. Would it...

Thanks a lot Honvedseg ,

I really liked this feature. It makes the game more realistic since you have to manage your population as well. Without it you and your AI foes are able to recruit from cities without any limits.

Dear Honvedseg,

How can I introduce the population migration feature into COW? I also feel more comfortable with it and really miss it in COW. Please let me know what files I have to modify.

Thanks,

Aurelian

Thanks Iain, I already thought that the sizes need some adjustment, but which Software application do I have to use in order to edit the buildings, UI Icons etc..? I know that I can have a look at each building,unit UI file when I use Imaging but I am not able to edit them with that program. Can you...

Well, you need not to subsitute all "horse noises" for the elephant sounds. There are about half a dozen or so Cavalry wav. files in the data folder. If you replace lets say two with elephant sound you will be able to have both sound effects in the game although they can not be directly as...

Dear Iain, I am trying to build a new Roman mod for Cow. So far, I have added Roman city names and changed the side names on all maps including the Roman map pack from the COW patch. I also would like to romanize the cities by transferring the buildings from Legion to the COW cities. Is that possibl...
