good call, i move for a new invisable city called atlantis, and you have to find it on yer own. it will be held by a full stack of the most powerful units in the game with 3 gold chevs and weapons n armour upgrades. if you manage to win, then you get a bazillion gold. lol

speaking of atlantis, when did that island that some think might be what homer was talking about (its in the agean archipelago) explode?

I believe the date range is sometime between c.1500BC and c.1700BC, depending on which study you believe. I think that the most accepted is between 1600 and 1650 BC.

Atlantis was btw not mentioned by Homer but by Platon. I don't remember the exact dialogue though.
Yeah, that island is called Santorin. The Minoans were probably an influence on the myth of Atlantis.
