Hi, I'v recently installed AoE3 after a number of years playing the second. The graphics are not bad, and the maps are more beautiful and shiny. The best part begins when you enable "high poly model". The fighting style is very real and the civs differ from each other historically accurate. I like the Uhlan's uniform. It looks cool to me. I wonder how Persian civ couldn't make it into AoE3. Compared to other nations of the world in the last five centuries, Persians are historically one of the most important ones. They hired British ships and defeated Portuguese. They bought French cannons against the Russian. Ishould mention that the word "zamburak" which was given to an Indian weapon, is a Persian word meaning "little bee" refering to Egyptian mounted crossbows. During Safavid Persia as a gunpowder empire, the crossbows were replaced by light cannons(one-fourth of a cannon). These in-game Indian zamburaks are considered "toys" compared to Persian ones as one zamburak has hard time against Jannisary. In history, an army of 80000 Jannisaries with artillery, was crushed by the beginning(only front side) of the Persian army, including only 15000 zamburaks and some pieces of artilley, in minutes. I don't know if you'v recognized it or not, but the words "Spahi" and "Sepoy" that exist in Ottoman and Indian civ, are both derived from the Persian word "Sepahi" meaning "army man". I'm not saying that there is a big empty place that must be filled in this way, but adding this civilization could at least make it much more fun and somehow connect it more to AoE2.
