    The First Annual Talent Show

    This doesn't qualify as an idea (does it have to? I don't know) but I drew this Indian-inspired joke unit doodle a few weeks ago. I vaguely plan on trying to make a 3D model of it for the hell of it but depending on how long this talent show stays open that might be next year's submission, ha...

    Design Blog #2: Unit Design Theory

    You and Spaniard still have those notes? April Fool's new civ mania reminded of this thread. Got curious to try, may or may not have stamped out a very very basic and probably quite bad Carthage myself just for fun just now...

    The Indians

    Man, times like these really make me wish I could contribute more than just cheering on from the sidelines. While I do have technical skills, I guess they don't line up with your bottlenecks (Well, I did at one point spend some time writing scripts for Blender for import/export purposes and...

    Developer Update 2021/03/31 (New Civs! New Item Rarity and more!)

    Project Celeste devs in 2020: We're brainstorming selection criteria for an 8th civ, but god only knows if we'll ever make it. We're taking it one civ at a time with giant vacations in between. Don't get your hopes up. Project Celeste devs in 2021: 3 civs in the near future They all seem like...

    PvE The Celtic Invasion of Rome Quest Pack!

    Seems Brennos got a bit triggered by all this "Roma Invicta" talk and has a counter-slogan to offer...

    Weekly Blog #39: Behind the Scenes - Audio, Music, Trailer

    This made an unexpected turn into a blog about pillow forts at one point. That's so interesting, actually. Never thought of their echo-suppressing capabilities before.

    Romans Release Date and Information

    Let me just pin the date on my calendar. No really, let me jab that with the thumbtack. Or you know what? Forget the tack, let me just get a good knife and 'brutally' stab that particular date. And why just one knife? Maybe I'll use 23 of them! ...why am I hungry for salad all of a sudden?

    Letter to the Project Celeste Community

    It's sad that people like you guys, who have been doing this project purely out of passion and kindness to a community without any expectation of profit or personal gain, have had to deal with this kind of situation and the emotional ramificiations of it. You deserve better. Much love and...

    Hope everything is alright with you guys. How's the treehouse?

    Weekly Blog #37: Campaign Roadmap, Roman Voicelines, Grand Roman Warehouse

    This blog has got me kind of curious: were there any difficult Latin tongue-twisters that were hard to record the voice for without messing up? (Or, since AoEO kind of does a watered down/humorously garbled version of the language, were there any too-easy Latin tongue-straighteners that were...

    Weekly Blog #37: Campaign Roadmap, Roman Voicelines, Grand Roman Warehouse

    I suppose you could say that we simply don't know enough about the Scythian language (or the language spoken by the early Nubians, for that matter) to reconstruct such unit phrases, and this forced the original devs to just use Persian but very maybe they could have decided to use something...

    Volo Romam! Sed domus arboris facere quoque necesse est ;) The roadmap looks great! (and the graphic, too, was time well spent ;) )

    Weekly Blog #35: Roman Campaign Details - Part 3

    Ha, thanks, but I actually agree with your standpoint though. Historical accuracy takes a bit more of a backseat in this game than in other Age of Empires games I think. Was just sharing some information that I thought might be interesting. ;)

    Weekly Blog #35: Roman Campaign Details - Part 3

    Hey, early Celts wielded longswords! "Longsword" is a pretty ambiguous term which historians retroactively apply to several types of swords from a variety of different periods. In this case, it refers to the Celtic Hallstatt-era sword, which the Celts used in the earlier half of the 1st...

    Weekly Blog #33: Etruscan Mini-Faction, Roman Capital City Vanity

    I've never used it but I'm sure I could figure out how it works without much effort, if you think I could help. Personally I am working on a very detailed modding project for another strategy game, which takes place in ~800-300 BC central Italy (Latium, southern Etruria, Faliscum & Sabinum...
