    :-) Well, as I stated before I would have never guessed it, if it wasn't for the suggestions by the other members. Sort of "a dwarf standing on the shoulders of giants"
    (btw while writing this post I found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standin...ders_of_giants the history of this phrase. EB can be educative in many dubious ways...)
    Does this mean I have the right to post my own riddle? Well, sorry to ruin it guys, but I can no longer play the game. In fact I deleted my Windows installation and put Linux on my pc one month ago for the specific reason that I played wayyyy too many hours EB! Aside from educative EB can be harmfull for the weak.. Cheers guys!

    τούς μέν δούλους εποίησε, τούς δέ ελευθέρους.

    We shall all, brothers, remember the devotion of Noble Wrath on those bloodied battlefield. Let us also remember him as a dear companion, at our side in the phalanx, or brother at arm in the legion. many have crumbled in front of his mighht and today our friend leave with the setting sun. Wi will miss you...

    Well to cheer people up, I will give you a new picture, and the question with this one is:

    What did the Carthaginians have in mind when they tried to execute this plan? (Note that this was EB1.0)

    No idea to be honest, was there a town under siege by carthage close enough to reinforce the garrison?
    If its key to v1.0 then I won't know, as I started playing 1.1

    Well clearly they are attempting to prevent your entrance into the busted gate by blocking the space with a ram, lol

    Seriously though, I really have no idea how that happened
    from Megas Methuselah, for some information on Greek colonies in Iberia.

    Trying the weapon of ''Confusion'' and sallying forth while your army laugh too much to see what's happening?
