    Talking I Have Just Spent 30 Minutes Trying to Decide What to Say

    ...And after much deliberation, have decided to settle with:

    Hi! I'm Shokifer. Shorten that however you want. I've been playing Total War ever since Rome, and strangely enough I'm still a terrible strategist. But I am learning! Slowly.

    Anything else you'd like to know about me, just ask. Unless, of course, you intend to post one of those boring and manifactured "Welcome, *inset name here*"s, in which case, I would like to thank you in advance.

    You're never too old to learn, they say. So you better learn slow, or there's nothing left to learn when you're old.

    -I'm a size 9
    -Meh. Not really a car person, y'know?
    -It doesn't. It gets run over before it can make it. I should know. I saw one once.
    -The egg, thanks to good ol' evolution.
    -Probably a lion. >:3
    - Downhill. Always.
    - Hey, if Budweiser counts as a beer, surely Heineken would too!

    Welcome to the Org!

    Most of us are friendly except for the Backroomers

    There are some great guides that can help with your strategy. Most of it comes down to cash flow in the non combat phase, location location location in the battles.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    I once conquered Germania in EB and didn't get a single heroic victory the entire time.

    You're the conqueror. Re-write history and make all your victories heroic. Execute everyone who dares to accuse the glorious Shokifer, son of Mars, of being a liar.

    Well, I'm playing as the Casse (British Tribe), so I don't think they would take kindly to me calling myself the son of Mars

    One problem, though.

    The Germans still have two settlements in Gaul.

    Commence operation eradication!
