    I cannot answer your question for I am not of this world. I am from the planet Gametron (seen plenty of you there as well) and for us there has only ever been 1 age - the age of gaming. It's a wonderful world.

    However I have heard of this 'woman' you speak of and it reminds me of a story.

    Once upon a time there was a man, and the man asked a woman to marry him. The woman said "NO" and the man lived happily ever after. THE END

    Well, actually, who are you? I mean, they probably "can't explain", but if Methusaleh won't get fooled again, the kids should be alright.

    I admit to not understanding this joke. Can you elaborate?

    Alright, I'll explain step by step

    Man, the stuff the youngsters of today listen to. They don't even know The Who anymore.

    seriously the best comment I've ever read in here! for you:
    (and I'm 20 years of age and I've seen the Who live, so restore your faith in the modern youth)

    Plutoboyz, as for the 14th century. Can you spell P-L-A-G-U-E ?

    As for me, if I could be a Macedonian general, the period c. 325-260 BC would just be fantastic: I mean, everybody-versus-everybody. For example I love the fates of fx Pyrrhus or Demetrios Poliocertes (no idea bout the spelling), who lost and won kingdoms SEVERAL times. Actually the Cambridge Ancient History itself remarks; "everything was possible in the fantastic world of Hellenistic politics". I know it must have been a cruel time, but I just love a big mess. The Period of Migrations in Europe, with the Goths and Huns and Vandals would be another one of those periods. Where everything's confusion and there are no set rules and adventure everywhere.
    But obviously those periods would only be cool if you were a commander + a very talented commander (being a lousy commander is prolly more fun in peace time). So if I can't choose what to be, I'd rather try the 1960's and 70's. Sounds like they were fun :)

    Moreover, I advise that Syracusans must be added to EB (insp. by Cato the Elder )

    Is looking forward to the 2090's, when EB 20.0 will be released - spanning the entire Eurasian continent and having no Eleutheroi - with a faction for every independent state instead. Look out for the Gedrosians, the Cretans and the kingdom of Kallatis!

    I'd be happy with most periods/regions pre-1600, as long as I was nobility of some sort. Regardless of which awesome civilization you live in, shit sucks if you're a slave washing clothes with pee.

    I do have noble blood! Though I already said that I'd live in the Neolitic period, in CANADA. No nobility there, as long as I proove myself as a man and hunter! Going back to the roots of my people. Yeah, speaking of wich, makes me nostalgic when i think about that!
