Something tells me they don't miss me..


Listening to the hate they've created inside us, we grow.
As we reduce their religion to bones.

Ooh, AIs with savegames. That's impressive, they've been trying to do that since I was involved with it...

Also, pinned.

Just since build 17, it peaked my interest a while back but I just started playing. I'll  have to download the update soon and give it a go. I love the concept, it's like age of empires but more fun! :D

Yes, it's great!

My inner classicist really likes the name of this release as well; the "rosy-fingered dawn" is one of the nicest repeated motifs in the Odyssey.  :)

That was a work of Homer correct? I really need to get on reading his stuff.

Yes - though we're not sure there was ever a terribly definite figure called Homer. The Odyssey and Iliad are attributed to him anyway - they're both great books and well worth reading :)

Damn I remember I really wanted to give this a crack ages back but my internet was too armadilloe to actually do it. Might have to re-evaluate now.
