I mentioned this in the mini-stick on the last forum, but I think it deserves it's own topic. It's a real time strategy game made by freelance developers based around six different civilizations from 500BC to 500AD - Rome, Hellas, Carthage, Iberia, the Celts/Gauls and Persia, each with their own very unique units and buildings. Gameplay wise, it could easily be a better game than Age of Empires 3 and it's current contemparies. Not to mention the fact that it's historically accurate.

I'd love to play that game, I thought it looked really good when you posted it back at rules. I think I'll either be Rome or the Hellas. Possibly Carthage if I get to cross mountains with elephants  |

kkk. There's some great history articles there, too, which give the site a lot of lastability alone.

you do! The Carthiginians will have North African elephants and the Persians will have Indian mahouts. _________________

| A Modest Proposal? I think it's a pretty funny work compared to Swift's other stuff. |

If I do a poster or something, I'll prolly put it all over the room, and maybe even the school. Freak some kids out.  _________________
