1. I would like to see some new animals: wild horses, bears, wild camels, tigers.
2. How about a Chinese hero or two? Or even better yet custom heroes.
3. I know this is pushing it, but how about an asian set of knights, swordmen, archers etc. the paladin just doesn't work for me when i'm china or japan. Maybe use the mongols unique unit as a base and throw a sword in his hand? shaolin monks.
4. I love the buildings graphics, but why cant you rotate them?
5. How about some winter terain?
6. How about some unique buildings and gaia like a mannor (large house), different styled ruins(although I love the Roman villa), STONE HENGE.
7. CREATE SCENERIO WITH A POPULATION LIMIT OF MORE THAN 75 PEOPLE!!!!
8. Different AI scripts to chose from like in AOE, passive, agressive, defensive. Its a whole lot easier than writing one myself(I such at that). I want to play the game not re-do it.
9. Most importantly to me a knight in metal colored armor. or a black knight on a black horse.
