    From the ETW thinktank thread.

    Reading the writeups for that game is what got me to join the Org. That, and some of the MTW pbm writeups.

    I'm looking forward to playing a succession game. Can't remember the last one I was in, although there was a vanilla Julii one that was really fun.

    Maybe if this works well a few more could be done?

    As I find ETW thus far to be immensely more enjoyable than the previous two titles...

    I shall join.

    Are you the same person as Zimfan? I remember doing a Vandal BI one with you. We almost made it all the way.

    And thanks for joining khaan, I'll put you on the list.

    At the current lineup, things should be interesting for me when it becomes my turn. I've only played a prestige game as the Dutch so far, and they're already a republic. I haven't had to deal with revolutions yet.

    That's me.

    I don't remember completely, but I think it might be my fault we didn't finish, and so close to taking Rome.

    I always appreciated that you guys were willing to do a vanilla BI succession game with me. I remember it was just you and one other person.

    Quick initial update: I've played two turns so far, with some interesting results. Had a fun battle for St. Augustine. Spain is just too friggin' spread out. I'm probably going to just see if I can sell off my possessions in Italy before someone takes them.

    If only my computer could run Empire...

    Edit: Put me on the list just in case the unthinkable happens, and I can get Empire. You can keep skipping me until I manage to get it.
