Hello, I'm currently researching the Cyrenean army for mod designed for Rome II (you can see the details here: (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?2036-Sub-Mods-for-Divide-et-Impera). When I was gathering information, I've stumbled upon this site: www.fanaticus.org/DBA/armies/var24e.html#topIt contains a very nice summary of Cyrene's history. I've been wondering who should I contact if I wanted to use it as a description in the mod? I could write my own summary, but I figured that if someone had done such a great job, why not ask?  To clarify: This mod is a strictly non-profit project. |

I don't really know who owns the text of Fanaticus The site manager or the original writer. Why not just cite the original source and use the text and if anybody sues you, you can just drop it. I have never known a nicer person than the original manager, Chris, so I can't imagine him objecting.

I would second that. Contact Chris. If he doesn't hold the rights, then I am sure he would tell you who does.

Thank you both, for now I've cited the original source like this: In other news, here's the Cyrene faction description (courtesy of Fanatacus.org - original source: www.fanaticus.org/DBA/armies/I56.html):Should Chris or the original author object, please contact me through the Total War Center forums: www.twcenter.net/forums/newreply.php?do=postreply&t=747053My handle is "Commodore". I will also attempt to contact Chris, though it seems he hasn't been online since 11-02-2016 05:15 PM. But I'll try regardless. |

Seems the best way forward with this to me.

By the way, which would be the best section to discuss possible Kyrenean army roster on these forums?

So it'll be okay if I'll just post my historical research data there, without any links to the DBA wargaming? I'm nearly finished with my first draft of the Cyrenean army roster. |
