I was thinking about mapping a series of historically accurate battles

Does the community support said idea and what would you like to see

Historical battle scenes would have to be huge, not very fitting for the skirmish reality of cRPG

Battle of Arsuf.

If you wanted such a battle to be added to the Acre server, we would definitely appreciate that. We're looking for more maps, especially Crusader themed maps.

PS: Banner "R" in the banner pack is the historical Cross of Jerusalem. Just an idea.  :wink:

The problem with most historical battles is that they either took place in boring landscapes, or that one side had a significant terrain advantage.

I like this idea... would need a server large enough to support a ton of people though

Marathon would be a fun one, if only you could make sure defenders had less players
