The best trailer I've ever seen. Can't wait to come out!

[Spartan]

I been waiting for this movie for two years!

[Mikan Cyclone]

If I can't see this movie in theaters, I'll find a way, gosh crap it! 

[frugger]

Alright everyone im a history professor i have my masters in ancient history  so i know what im talking about. I’ve been looking at this movie and to let you all know the guys in the masks are suppose to be the Persians, the guys in the red are the Spartans, and no its not based on a comic book its based on an actual historical event if any of you want to know more about go here  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Thermopylae.  Plus this movie seems to only focus on the Spartans and not any of the other city states that were there such as Athens, so if you’re just looking for a historically accurate movie i wouldn’t suggest it, but if you’re looking for just another action movie like Troy then yea it looks pretty cool.

[PipfunatUT]

heh its based on a comic book loosely based on historical events   appears to be from the same dude who did Sin City.. so go see it...

Hey frugger - you have the same studies like me (theological university and got the masters in ancient and medieval history) Just that I am no longer a history teacher and got into the game industry. (*maybe you could give me a hand at the RDM MTW2 Mod - that will be great). As for the 300 movie - I love it. The comic book is based on the actual historic events but the movie is based on the comic book scripts and dialogues. I've read it - it is identical.

lol, just so you know this is the original frugger, I forgot my password. But anyway I have not read the 300 comic book so I did over look that, but I will go and see this movie because I just like war movies, even tho the history will be quite skewed. But as far as helping you with your mod I may be interested. I have played RTR mod for Rome and have also played your mod as well. I really like both and I hope I can make your mod a little more in line with historical truth, and also up to the level of total realism. I just don’t know how you would want me to help. But if you would like some help just let me know.

Anyway you see fit historycal feedback based on the games limits, feedback, testing ... etc. I really don't have the time to look into the small details - so I only go for the big changes and I am alone

[frugger2]

well let me play through an entire campaign it will prob take me around a week, then i can give you some changes and advice so that you can make your mod even more historically accurate, so ill get  back to you with some changes that would be great for the game.

Great - the last mod version is 1.8.0 -  try it after you finish the CA's campaign.

[frugger2]

Okay so ive played through the entire campaign, for the most part i really love your mod and the game as a whole. But I would def put in some foot soldiers for the Templar, Teutonic Knights and also the Spanish holy knights. Another mod that you may want to add is to be able to recruit templar and other holy knights while traveling through Christian lands on the way to wherever the crusade is headed to. Also as I said it would be quite historically accurate to be able to recruit Kingdom of Jerusalem knights or other soldiers when someone is in control of any of the holy cities. These knights should be the strongest that someone can recruit throughout the game because in real life they were highly trained, and more loyal then templars. Another change that might interest people is more cities in the Americas because despite popular belief there were many cities in the Americas before Europeans showed up. Also Greece only has two cities; Corinth was an active city in medieval Europe so at least two more could be fit on the map. I know what I am suggesting is some major changes, so we may all want to wait to see what the Total Realism people give us. But if not you could make these changes I would love to see them made.
