Russian Academy

Apparently one of the Academy's building is St.Basil Cathedral. Have you observed?

I wonder how many cultural references you can fit into a Heroes faction?

This types of cathedrals influenced architecturaly many middle east structures and vice versa. So it look well in Academy (India+Arabia+Some Egypt).

It looks well. But I'll more like Russian like Haven. Humans are always West Medieval Europe. This will make them more interesting and new.

And its not St.Basil Cathedral, this is the typical architectural style for ALL Russian churches.

I wouldn't say that it's Russian. Orthodox, for sure, but not Russian exclusively. It looks like a  tserkov/orthodox churchues that may be found in the "other half of Europe".

St Elizabeth's Church in Wiesbaden:


Alexander Nevsky's Cathedral in Warsaw (Thanks WW2 ):


Dome of Russian orthodox church in Geneva:


I admit, it would be perfect to finally play Haven that is not generic .
