hey Prom!

why there isn´t a readme??
I know nothing about the time period and I would like to know what was going on
also, there aren´t any hints or strategy sugestions for historical accuracy

quote: I have one pretty minor gripe, and that's that the units aren't sufficiently diverse - I open my city screen and whoa! there's about 20 different units, but they aren't so different - I think. This comes with the caveat that I've only played about 10 hours so far and there may be more to it than I've discovered.

Sorry, I'll fix that "chronology.txt" lapsus ASAP.
I'm making a list of what i forgot to insert into scen files. Anyway, i put on this thread a link to an homepage dedicated to Qin dinasty. check it out, it's great!!!

I agree with you... so much history hints untapped... Not to mention that I haven't seen a fantasy scenario based on Chinese legends... why fantasy creators prefears vampires instead of wu spirits?
( am I right, Wangshinbo ?)

Mao: My fiancee wants me to work hard, get a first, get an internship, pay her more attention...no time for Dotw these days

Prometeus: Now, Chinese ghosts - there's something I can help with. Actually, so can my fiancee Most of Chinese mythology is either bloodsucking/lifesucking ghosts (they usually take it through seducing their victims - more fun than vampires I'd have thought), or ancient mythology - sort of like the greek myths. Then, theres the buddhist/daoist canon of monsters and gods, so dragons, Kirin/Qilin, etc. who are good, and heavenly generals or officials, who may be good or bad. For anyone who can get a copy, read the classic 'Journey to the West' (Hsi Yu Qi/Xi You Ji), where the heroes face just about every kind of monster in Chinese Mythology at the time. Chinese TV did a pretty good version recently.

For those who can read Chinese, there are now about twenty or so really good RPG's in Chinese which cover oriental legends, and I guess the Japanese who've been on the computer scene longer have also got a lot along those lines.
