# History ¶
The roots of the Tribes came up at the [[https://www.widelands.org/forum/topic/5801/|Naval Tournament 2023]] where Teayo played against kaputtnik in [[https://www.widelands.org/forum/topic/5826/?page=1#post-40717|Round 1]] on the Map Calvission on 18th August 2023 17:15 to 19:45 MESZ . ¶
¶
In the progress of the game kaputtnik gained the controll over the Sea and started in the late game a Naval Invasion to Teayo's Island . ¶
¶
Teayo struggled with the economy and started up to build a Green Tree Wall with Forester houses with the try to schedule and slow down kaputtnik's Naval Invasion on Teayo's Island . ¶
¶
The Idea behind this defense strategy is to prevent attacks and loosing soliders and to gain more time to recruit more soldiers ore to train and upgrading the own soldiers . ¶
¶
But this choosen defense strategy by Teayo don't worked on the Map because the ground has bad growing Conditions for Trees . ¶
¶
After the losed game in the visitation of the replay and the analyse of the game , the Idea for Teayo's first Addon was born . ¶
¶
The first Idea was to add only one new Feature : The Wallmason . ¶
¶
Because the Empire Tribe has normally a lot of granite ware in the warehouse after a time and there no big usage for all of this granite . ¶
¶
So the Wallmason used all this granite to build up walls . Walls are a complett new Feature for Widelands . ¶
¶
The development started one day later on 19th August 2023 . The first Name of the Addon was **Mauerbauer.wad** . ¶
¶
From 20th August 2023 to mid September 2023 , in Blender starts the Concept Phase , which Style and Geometry have the walls later . ¶
¶
After the Concept Phase was mostly finished the development of the 3D-Blender Models started . ¶
¶
In October 2023 , the Addon was renamed from **Mauerbauer.wad** to **mauerbauer.wad** . ¶
¶
In November 2023 was a point reached where a first test was maked and checked to wall style look ingame . ¶
¶
Later in same month the Addon was renamed from **mauerbauer.wad** to **wallmason.wad** . ¶
¶
In December 2023 the next big Idea came up , a huge extension of the existing Empire Tribe , as own Tribe . ¶
¶
With more buildings , wares and workers and not only to add a Wallmason . ¶
¶
During the development there was some points of struggeling with the method of adding new wares , workers and buildings to an existing tribe , ¶
¶
with the Problem that the new wares are bad placed in the Tribe Inventory UI Interface . ¶
¶
Now the Addon transformed from a Addon that adds Wares, Workers and Buildings to an existing Tribe to a Addon that adds a entire new Tribe . ¶
¶
In December 2023 the Addon was renamed from **wallmason.wad** to **Imperium Plus.wad** . ¶
¶
In January 2024 the Addon was renamed from **Imperium Plus.wad** to **imperium_plus.wad** . ¶
¶
After huge progesses with the 3D-Blender Models for the Walls , including preparations for a Animation of build up and down a Wall Element , ¶
¶
the development of the extension of the Empire Tribe started . ¶
¶
The Idea was to make the Economy more realistic adding more supply chain componments . ¶
¶
In June 2024 the Addon was renamed from **imperium_plus.wad** to **empire_plus.wad** . ¶
¶
From June 2024 to October 2024 the development of the Extension Concept was finished . All Ideas which wares , workers and buildings are added . ¶
¶
The Idea came up to give the Empire Tribe more abbilities and strategys . Some new military sites was added . ¶
¶
Also the training and upgrading of the soliders was maked more difficult and complex . ¶
¶
In November 2024 the Addon was finally renamed from **empire_plus.wad** to **romans.wad** . ¶
¶
The reason for this renameing was that "Empire" can also descripes other Empires of other cultures , not only the antice roman empire . ¶
¶
For example the great ottoman empire , the japanese empire or the maja empire . ¶
¶
To make clear which real historic empire this tribe has as template , the name was changed to romans . ¶
¶
Also the offical Empire Tribe of Widelands already has in the tool tip interface the reference to that this tribe has the roman culture . ¶
¶
# Special Tribe Features ¶
* Ability to build Stone Walls for defending as better alternative to the Green Tree Wall strategy for schedule and slow down tactic and preventing soldier attacks . ¶
* New ware Clay that is digged by the clay digger in the clay diggery . But it's a endless ressource . exchange Land for Clay . A game for time ! ¶
* Ability to conquer Mountains with new military sites ¶
* Workers can no longer recruited instantly with the tool in a warehouse . Only in a new building : The School . ¶
* A Lot of new Wares , Workers and Buildings for the Tribe Economy - Now a bit more realistic ¶
* A Lot of new Upgrades for Buildings . ¶
* Transporting tools are required for transporting some wares : Jug , Barrel , Bucket , Basket , Sack and Bag . ¶
