Mamluk "release"
Well, I'm coming back on university and I won't have a possibility of working over my scn for a three months,
or again a year, so I'll release what I did up to this time.
Recent changes in the game weren't tested yet, descriptions are made in hurry and are short, I think I'll have to correct the tech tree, as it gets spoiled recently, and I didn't manage to make the sounds in time. Nevertheless, most is done.
I treat it as a kind of open playtesting...

It means "the owned" in Arabic; in the readme what did it mean exactly is explained I believe. Slaves that were bought in order to make a military guard out of them.

malaka-yamliku means to owe something,
I know just one word for purchasing, which is ashtara-
yashtari. My arabic vocabulary isn't all that great, though. Do You learn Arabic?

no. never learned arabic. but the same word, in many turkish dialect, means that. Most of them came from Routhern Russia, both of Qipciaq or Circassian tribes. Must be a borrowed word game, probably. after all, Kama Bulgarians and other russian turkish tribes were of islamic faith.

I prefer description "territories that are today located in souther part of Russian Federation".

Russia -it's only Moscow and Nizny Nowogrod.

Some mistakes I've recalled now;

-Al-Mughith, not Al-Mughis (in Polish transcription th is s, though)

Circassian not Tcherkess (Czerkies is Polish name)
wrong icon for "port" improvement.
