History

The idea of the modification was started by Atatürk, who brought up the proposal for there to be a 'Classical Africa: Total War'. Though like all raw ideas, they must be changed and altered if they are to change from primitive state to refinement. And thus, the second and most influential member of the team, Stephan then helped shape the modification into what it is today, The Shadow of Ishtar.
