Thread: RTW + BI for £25 at play.com

    Default RTW + BI for £25 at play.com

    Nice little parcel arrived in the post for me this morning. After hearing about the (by now highly publicised) communities issues with RTW I decided to leave purchasing it till it had come down in price and it was patched and modded to a relatively mature status.

    RTW is £9.99 and BI is £14.99 (including postage). Pretty good value I reckon.

    Sadly, they are Christmas presents from the wife, so I won't get to play them for another month - tho I have just installed them and had a quick go "just to check it works"

    So now the boxes with the CD's go back to the wife


    Hmmm, wonder if I can find a no CD crack.....




    Mods - that last line was a joke btw
    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

    The best choose one thing in exchange for all, everflowing fame among mortals; but the majority are satisfied with just feasting like beasts.

    That looks dangerously like advocating piracy to me. Surely you wouldn't be that naughty, now would you?
    Gentlemen should exercise caution and wear stout-sided boots when using the Fintry-Kyle Escape Apparatus. Ladies, children, servants and those of a nervous disposition should be strongly encouraged to seek other means of hurried egress.

    Either Im blind or the man stated that hes got the original copy.
    Regardless that, if the mere observation of the existance of Google site constituted piracy then many of us would be in jail...

    PS It would be more beneficial if CA developers spent their time more creatively (well thats OXYMORON isnt it?) in this forum replying to problems bogging down the modding community rather than assuming the role that G.W.Bush assumes on the planet...

    Come on, Hellenes, you know full well what you were doing. Don't be a rules lawyer now.

    As to your post script: I think you've answered your own point quite nicely. Why would I be inclined to help someone with a 'positive attitude' like yours?
