Re: Damn it!
Um, well, I'm ethnically Chinese but nationally Singaporean, which means we are (almost by definition, be we Chinese, Malay or Indian) effectively-bilingual products of the compulsory primary and secondary education system. And anyway, I WAS a humanities student (read: the somatophylakes), so I daresay I'm somewhere in the 99th percentile where language ability is concerned. *preens*
Anyway, we have gotta be pretty good at history in the first place to be able to find our way to this place and post, so I suppose language ability has to be good along the way, no? Otherwise how in the world would we write our essays/theses/posts? ;-)
But really, Mouzaphaerre, your English isn't half bad either. In fact, it is quite excellent compared to some of my own fellow countrymen. I'm quite frankly embarrassed at some of them.
DO NOT WANT!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Damn it!
No reason to be embarrassed. Their English is better than my Chinese, I assure you.

"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: Damn it!
I remember when I first got RtR, which is a great mod and I was so damned impressed with it... Until I found EB, which blew me away. The vastness of EB, what with managing an economy, fighting hard fought battles, thoroughly planning what kinds of governments to install in cities, the realistic units, the history.... I'll admit, when I first tried it, it scared the shit outta me and I ran back to RtR but I toyed with EB more and more until I finally mustered up a successful campaign as the KH and I have not looked back yet. Now I have played as almost every faction and each campaign is always as entertaining as the prior. I never even bought MtW2 because I simply cannot justify not playing EB.

Re: Damn it!
You should buy MTW2 because otherwise you won't be able to play EB2. And EB2 is to EB1 what, um, EB is to RTW, dare I say.
