Obviously, Gjyra man, come on!
Why? Are you from a village next to Gjyra?
Do you have some centuries old rivalry with them?
Did some of Gjyrans stole a cow from your village, 200 years ago?
Speak, man!
No really, i cant find any sources other than Wiki, and it doesn't have a citenote, but i can remember from when i was in elementary school that
Nderfandina must have been the economic center, smth more of a town, while Kruje was the Capital and smth more of a castle. Turning one of the villages into a castle, and renaming it into Krujë while, renaming Kruje to Nderfandina, would be more accurate. Other than that, we also wouldn't have to wait until were strong enough to conquer a castle to gain access to pro troops
Well, we can't promise anything, because, our mod is
very strict about what qualifies as a town.
That's why, you'll see some factions (Bosnia, Wales) that have no towns at all.
When I was researching Bosnia, I knew that they had castles, trading centers, and what not, but that doesn't automatically qualifies them as towns.
As for Arber, I think they have always been planned as a city-state/micronation.
If I recall correctly, we were even undecided as whether Kruje should be a town, or a castle, because of our ''what qualifies as a town'' rules.
So, basically, we have put Kruje as a town, just because it was supposed to be the only Arberian settlement (aside from villages). If we are to put one more big settlement, then the decision to include Kruje as a town would be meaningless.
As for Nderfandina, I would like to include it, but as a village (maybe instead of Gjyra?
).
Because, the trade centers on Balkans didn't have to be towns, per se.
In fact, it seems (according to my knowledge) that most trade centers of the Mid-Western Balkans weren't a big cities, with walls and towers, but in fact, were more like very big villages, called
squares.
Squares were not villages, nor towns, they were simply a very, very large trading centers, bult on a plain, and were the centres of economy.
However, I will not speak more on that subject, because I am a Serb (which automatically makes me 10 times more epic, but whatever
), and I don't want for people to think that I am stopping the expansion of Arber on purpose.
So I will leave everything to Korinov, if he wants something to say, or change.

Seems like this looks cool and kinda historically
If you guys want to add it in next release i can send it to you.
btw if i need a permission to edit your files please say me quick and i remove it again.
It still look funny to me (no offence).
Your colouring is OK, but the basic shape is still bad.
Btw, do you (or Scythe) have any other picture of that eagle?
A symbol found on some church, or a stone plate, or book?
For example, here are 2 random pics of Serbian medieval eagles:
And if you look at some of those Eagles closely, you will see that they are the same as the current Eagle in our mod, in the game.
So, can you find something like that, only with Albanian eagle?
I just want to know from where does
this flag comes from.
I mean, the artist who made that modern rendition must have had some historical source.
Because, if the artist made that on his own - then it's just a bad art.
But if he made it using some historical source, then it is OK.
(But seriously, no offence, to me it still looks like some chicken, ready to be plucked.
)
