while i have been home during my spring break, i put mtw pack on my desktop, and rediscovered the magic this game used to hold over me. I am playing an xl campaign as the turks, and it has been a blast. I have been constantly trying to beat back the byzantines (they are out of asia minor now, and i'm knocking on the door of constaninople), which is a challenge when their jedi generals and superior byzantine infantry kick my butt back and forth across the battle map. Now on top of that egypt has invaded and i'm fighting a two front war. It is quite the challenge, even with one of the easier factions. It is so much more challenging than any of the newer titles are. I fear i'm falling into a trance playing this game, with the old mantra of just one more turn keeping me glued to the computer. i wanted a small session of 45 minutes today and ended up playing two and a half hours. .
