haha mine thinks it's fascinating to listen to, and says the guys are funny looking when they run around.
And you know you play EB too much when you get annoyed if you think your professor says the wrong name for cities.

guilty of that :clown:
hehe... I wish. As it is, she just gives me funny looks for playing too much. At least she's a Classicist and understands the appeal.
How do you make the non-Classicist understand the appeal?! I need to know how!

Does she have a sister who's a classicist? I really need to meet more women in my major!

You know you play too much EB when you think the Romans were only successful because everyone else was playing on VH/VH and they were on E/E.

...when you begin to explain your professor, that the Hellenistic kingdoms are cheaters, because they can form phalanx boxes.

When the cop says to drop your weapons, you cry "MOLON LABE!" before being riddled with bullets.
Also, you pronounce names of ancient states or cities correctly, such as Epeiros, Makedon, or Qarthadast (although I am not so far gone that I refer to Greece as Hellas or Rome as Roma).
Also, when you watch Lord of the Rings, you find yourself mentally replacing the types of soldiers with ancient counterparts (if applicable).
Also, you don't have a girlfriend because whenever you are around females you are too busy with discussions about Central Asian nomadic warfare to talk about ponies or fairies or lesbian fantasies or whatever it is that girls talk about.
When you see a small hill on the way to a camping expedition, and think how would you arrange the troops so that they would fend off the attackers
When you look for a potentially better spot in order to have more tactical advantage
When you remember the hill on your way back
When you imagine you're a: hoplitai, principes, leves (or akontistai), accensi, etc...
When you imagine that your tent's bag is an hasta (or doru) and a bag full of sheets is your scutum (or aspis)
When you say perfectly all the roman/greek/celtic/punic things the unit say
When you say perfectly all the names of the soldiers you use in your campaign
When you say all this when doing the same actions they mean
When you imagine formations in order to fight imaginary battles
When you imagine you are in a movie about EB
When you hate that modern warfere use gunpowder instead of old-fasioned ruthless spears and swords and unforgiving tactics
When you imagine that in your country (where there was no european until 1503 IIRC) there were battles between the roman republican army and the celtic armies
When you take the time to remember all this and write it instead of playing EB
All guilty as charged your honor
MISTHOPHOROI TOXOTAI KRETIKIOI?
Is there any reason why the defendant made this... actions
LOCHOS VADEL!
Apparently he hasn't played EB for 2 days your honor, and there's no time to play it today

Good lord, i want him to play EB ASAP for at least 3 hours

You know you play too much EB when you make the EB map your desktop background and start thinking on potential expansions or new ares to conquer while listening to some EB music, when you should be making your homework (quilty).
and start feeling annoyed if you put an EB screenshot of Hyspaspitai as your desktop background and your College pals start asking "what romans are these?" (almost guilty)

jaja, let's OT for a bit here, since nobody has posted anything related to this thread since 10 posts ago
i'm not entirely totalitarian, i'm just, disorder-hater, i can't stand when my classmates bark like elephants, i feel the need to get a grenade and to blow them up to pieces (i'm a wanted serial killer in nebraska, florida and arkansas; unfortunately, michigan's constitution doesn't declare me a wanted fellan, i need 324 more murders in order to get it (i have 5846 summed up by today)) but anyway, i think this thread will get locked because of your irresponsability, i found nothing wrong with but as my nickname suggests, i'm a professional thread killer (and moderator & member pain in the ***) but since i have not much to say or do, i would like to show my talent on textures in order to be part of the EB helping team for skinning, but i also want to edit the images for my AAR, and also play EB, since doing all three is not possible, i will go for the AAR editing, thanks for your wonderful interest in this post
Edit: Why the hell can't you write the rest of my name????? writing "sys" is going to take too much off you day, well anyways i'm drunk (with coke) so i'm gonna get me some pizza rolls, anyone want a pizza roll? email me if you want a pizza roll! Pizza rolls! Pizza Roll!
