Hiyas everybody, I'm just another long-time lurker (a programmer by day) and its about time that I thank the folks here for sharing all their strategies and insights and analysis over the course of a dozen or so total war games (including expansions) and hundreds of campaigns.

This place is a complex systems analysis and number crunchers heaven with a sense of humor and a lot of charm.

And y'know, those are really super rare and good to have, if you can find one.
