"Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

Re: what happened at Ipsus
I refuse to call RTW's Raphia a "Historical battle", mainly because of the unhistorical composition of the Egyptian army.
(err chariots at Raphia? and weren't there smaller North African war Elephants on Egypt's side?)
I'm sorry I played that battle once and as soon as I saw that Egyptian lineup with Chariot blades slaughtering my companion cavalry I had already had enough...
I guess I was expecting something like the Time Commanders Episode battle, rather than what we got.
Still my hatred of RTW's Egypt runs deep.

Re: what happened at Ipsus

We do not sow.
