    Another excellent review.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Neat review, thanks for the post Voigtkampf, and great work froggy

    Vickie 2 had the misfortune of being released completely bugged. I remember that at launch, the economy just broke after a certain date leading to certain nations dominating and others being left out in the cold. I shelved it while i waited for a patch, and have since been completely side-tracked by other games. And now Crusader Kings II! Maybe if I can pry myself away from that masterpiece, I should give Vickie 2 another go.

    I'm sure the worst oddities are long since ironed out.

    Swedish games: Brilliant concepts, poor execution. Why can't they be more like their cousins?

    If I were to judge by me, it is probably those beautiful Swedish blondes that are distracting them...

    I like World in Conflict more than any German games (if that's what you meant). :-D
