    I think that is a bit harsh. I say that as long as you didn't cheat, you deserve a congrats. The carthies are one of the few factions that I've managed to complete as well. Keep up the good work.

    He abandoned most of his settlements, reconquered them, and then went out to conquer everyone else. Either you don't know what blitzing is or you're just trolling for shits and giggles.

    Congratulations. I myself have never finished a campaign in EB so far.

    Well done it's nice to finish a campaign.

    Now play to AD14(From a smug bar steward who has)

    Knight of heaven, I don't know why you have so many CTD's I found the mod to be incredibly stable to the end, I did have CTD's mostly from the RTW post battle problem but none that broke the campaign. I was running RTW.exe with Lz3's minimod pack, or it may be I've 3G of RAM.

    Well, it's not a real haiku. I use that term only because i write short "songs" like haiku.
    If you're interested in what real haiku is, here is a link:

    Only in the EB forums would anyone consider a 364 turn win a "blitz".

    I'd like to play a slower game but with RTW diplomacy in the state it's in I don't find it much fun. I found a pace I'm comfortable with and had a good time fulfilling a personal goal of mine (actually completing an EB game, as usually once I hit that point where I can't lose I start a new one). It is a game after all.

    181BC and that? That is no blitzing... I usually have the world conquered then already...

    Well done Zim! Congrats.

    Not that I find impressive. I tried to pull off a blitz in MTW2 once where it's much easier, and I just can't handle the level of management required to successfully blitz the map that fast. I'm too inefficient. If I'm waiting for structures to build I just keep hitting end turn while I read a book, only to find one of my settlements rebelled when I wasn't paying attention.
