This new building by Pepp is a realistic and historically accurate recreation of the Duomo di Sienna.
Usefulness/Novelty: 4
There are many wonders and cathedrals to chose from in the blacksmith to add to your game, so what makes this one any different? For a start it's a historical recreation of a real life building, and a very accurate one at that. This is not a building that has been made before so it's totally unique to the game, and it also fits in well with the time period and location that the game is set in. Just like the real building upon which it is based, this graphic is massive, which is both a strength and weakness to this design. The building is incredibly detailed yet far too big to really be useful in the game. It would require significant data editing in order to adjust its radius size so units don't walk over it and it also fills up most of the screen so you can't see much else.
Quality/Instructions: 4.5
The quality of the building is exceptional. Designed using traditional copy-and-paste techniques and utilising parts from other modded buildings such as textures from Age of Chivalry means that this building not only blend perfectly into the game but also feels completely unique in its design. The building is highly detailed and also very realistic creating a fantastic new edition to the editor, especially for historical scenarios set in Medieval France.
Additional Comments:
Overall this is an exceptionally designed building that is limited in its use due to enormous size.
