    3) There's no point in playing the game anymore - the entire game aspect is lost.

    So as far as units go, or buildings go we can be as picky as we want... And we are...

    But as far as the 'campaign' aspect goes there's hardly anything we can do without seriously ruining the fun. Even provincial backwaters could end up big bloating & massive + very well developped from the start.
    YOU SHOULD DO THAT
    (because if you don't - i will go back to encyclopedias and edit my descr_start.txt myself as I have done it 1000 times before.. offcourse I will post it for everyone)

    Even if that means to make 2 descr_start.txt for one's that like faction precisely represented and one's who like fun - and if you EB members are to make a simple thred for fans to vote - .. well.. let me bet that 80% would vote for what Thaatu is saying...

    think about it please

    @ Maksimus:

    Dear sir,

    what stops you from changing the respective txt files? You can easily modify them so that Pella has a mine1 at the start (and whichever settlement should have one too), so that every capital has a facMIC5, so that every regMICs are usable to every faction?

    But:

    - don't complain when the bigger & wealthier factions are steamrolling either you or the weaker neighbours with MIC4 or MIC5 units, and

    - not game related, please use a more friendlier tone and don't use smilies that may offend.

    Yours,
    Treverer
    Towards the end of the book, the Moties quote an old story from Herodotus:

    "Once there was a thief who was to be executed. As he was taken away he made a bargain with the king: In one year he would teach the king's favorite horse to sing hymns."
    "The other prisoners watched the thief singing to the horse and laughed. 'You will not succeed,' they told him. 'No one can.' To which the thief replied, 'I have a year, and who knows what will happen in that time. The king might die. The horse might die. I might die. And perhaps the horse will learn to sing.'"

    I can't see any offensive smiley in his post. Besides I don't think there's even such a thing in the org.

    All right, I see... Maks were certainly not historically in a super-rich situation. It's as if the mines were there before the time period, but someone sacked them. :)
