- Persia, Netherlands and Portugal lost access to Stockades and Lookouts, but now have a rathher powerful building: the Kraal. This is a building that can be built almost ANYWHERE, allowing for aggressive early game forward building. With Portugal, it is highly effective, since you can pair it up with the Presidio to create firebases to anchor and support armies on expedition.
- Only a few buildings are now left before this mod is complete, as are several more units to flesh out the 500-year history of Rise of the Moderns.

- New graphic given for Persian Kraal/Sangar.
- Old entry for redundant shipping taken over, it is now meant for us as the Sangar - same building as the Kraal but with a different name.

A successful system for the Kraal/Sangar is now in place. We intend to extend the system of Sangars to Iran, as well.

So what's next?

- Develop a new model of the Sangar for Iran - one based on CnC Rise of the Reds, probably.
- arab_villa.tga is a good candidate for transformation.

First attempts to input Kraals into this mod, to finish off the Rise of the Moderns building tech tree.

- We want Texas, Netherlands, and Portugal to get Kraals.
- These are weaker than Blockhouses, but have large garrisons, can detect enemy units and can also be built anywhere on the map.
- Kraal availability blocks out Outposts/AA Guns and conventonal Blockhouse/Bastion construction.

Upon coempletion, Fall of Nations: Cormodagor begins launch ASAP (because this LOTR mod uses the same builds system as Rise of the Moderns).

Wonder techs have been installed for this mod, but other issues remain.
- Scouts and Explorers need new skins.
- Thai, Vietnam rosters not checked or finalised.
-help.x has not been properly edited.

All this needs to be done at some point in time. But when?
