Hi everybody,

@ Jack50: even Vanilla kept me busy for about 10 years, having started to play MODs only a few weeks ago. Tried first XL on 2.01, but didn´t like the limitations (playing mostly the Danes, for example conquering Ireland for Kerns and Gallowglasses - in XL there were none :-( and no LithCav!!!) Now playing REDUX, available for both 1.1 and 2.01, with completely new time frame, units a.s.o. - and keep sticking to the machine to play and play and......so have FUN, man!!!!

@ Servilius Novus: No need to be afraid of them, starting early gives you the time to develop good enough armour for their godd@mned Archers as well as getting far enough into the tech tree to have allround superiour units - but you have to keep an eye on income, of course (as Byz no prob, rich provinces). Wish you VICTORY ;-))

@ Andres: Shame on you! After three days still looking THAT sober?!? ;-)))

greetings to all players of "the one and only" TW-game,
