Its been 1 year since I last played EB. What brought me back was the (I see now very old) news that there was a planned m2tw EB. I have been playing m2tw again for a month after reading a fantastic book called 'Vlad the impaler - Son of the Devil, Hero of the people'. Even before I had finished I found myself desperate to play as wallachia and recreate fending of the mighty ottomans to defend all of Christianity. Sadly I can only play as hungary but after searching for mods in the hope of playing as wallachia I find myself here again. And so I wait to go back to a simpler time. A time before the pretensions and hypocrisy of Christianity and Islam. A time when people could slaughter there fellow man with a bit more honesty and efficiency. Ah the good old days.

Speaking of books may I introduce myself with a rant? Why are there no books on eastern european history in England? I went into waterstones (the biggest bookseller) and not one, NOT ONE single east european history book from any period. Do we really need an entire shelf of Agincourt? The east was were the epic clash of civilizations took place. Its where all the drama was and its great stuff to read. End of rant.
