    We didn't.

    The end result is hopefully going to be fairly similar once we've finished configuring the new one.

    "The RPG Launcher is is the primary weapon of the grenadier class."

    Bob can you change that to the mowtar? This game has evolved since this was written. Or put primary AT weapon.

    RPG is still better than mortar against tanks.

    It should use the forum's color scheme.

    You misunderstood me, I'm saying its not the grens primary weapon. The mowtar is the weapon they run around with. Just change the RPG's sentence to "primary AT weapon".

    edit: and the damn sentence says "is" 2 times in a row on it.

    edit 2: and it doesn't have mines or any nade type on it.

    And put a bloody picture with a dubee next to it. So they know who uses it.

    No it should not use the empires forums colour scheme, it would make the site a bit ugh.

    The color scheme is ok, not good though.

    the "new" website looks like less work has gone into it than the old website.

    The old website, they had to edit the page HTML to update it. Not eveyone is good with HTML. It might not look as good, but I think it's a good move regardless as now the devs can reasonably blog on the front page.

    Its also much quicker to update/fix incorrect stuff. The current look is just temporary, though.

    I hate to repeat myself, but it seems some people can't understand the obvious.

    It helps if it's useful, like "the sidebar has a typo" and not things which are blatantly obvious, like "the color scheme doesn't match the mod".

    Thats on my to-do list. It should also be a lot easier to add videos to the website.

    Edit: Alright, I added some trailer videos and pics to the media page.

    what about a live stream that shows gameplay on the official server?

    something so potential players can feel the desire to get straight into the action
