    that ain't no progress Zak, only ignorant fools who managed to loose their "empire" only to plunge Western Europe into the Dark Ages.

    Won't... say... anything...

    Cheers.

    Edit: Zaf, do you (and other people who post screenshots like this) just take screens constantly throughout the battle, and then see what you end up with? It seems that something like this (and like many other battle screens) isn't really the kind of picture you can plan.

    Nope. I'm staying silent this time. The last time I opened my mouth on something like this I got a scolding and half a thread got deleted due to the ensuing argument.

    Suffice it to say that I do not agree with your evaluation of Roman history as "ignorant fools" who "plunged Western Europe into the Dark Ages", and that I would have a very hard time not being offensive/abrasive in my response because the "ignorant fools" part just sets me up oh so nicely for appropriating the comment for a parallel retort about true ignorance. Aside from that, I refuse to get into it again.

    Now then, I'm still wondering about people's screenshot "habits". I would like to put together an AAR, but I never have the presence of mind or foresight to take screens that would work well for something like that.

    Cheers.

    well I was exagerating....

    ...but don't be afraid to post info here on the EB forums. Really, skim through the Celtic Overpowered and Sweboz Underpowered threads, there is some argument but no real flame wars and a LOT of info.

    I saw something kinda like that the other day when one of my Parthian General's Guards stabbed some poor Syrian in the back while he was on his knees trying ot get back up.
    Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.
