Re: Middle late Roman empire (3 to 6 century AD)

I would like to see this. Although, no matter what periods are covered, I will just be happy once Legion II finally arrives. I've been waiting for this game for an eternity it feels like. And I can tell you, when it is finally announced, I will be among the very first to pre-order the collector's ed...

Re:

Yes, i didn't manage to make them work. But there's plenty to play with Legion Gold (and all your newer games btw who do support the small resolution). I love the concept since i bought Spartan & Got in 2004 and am still hoping that you announce something new. Cheers PS: i am expecting my secon...

I would like to add my voice in support of this idea as well. COW is one of my favourite games, and definitely the best depiction of the Ancient Near East that exists in video games (I still vividly remember ordering a copy on ebay and waiting and waiting and waiting for it, and every time the mail ...

They do work on Vista - or is that the dll issue you mentioned? That is what I was referring to, yes. Without the .dll they won't work. And until recently, I did not know about this fix, so for a long time now it has been stuck in my head that they don't work on Vista. I am quite overjoyed that wit...

Multiplayer compatability between Spartan and GoT?

Hi, so I own Spartan, and am thinking of getting Gates of Troy as well. My roommate is considering buying Spartan, but is hesitant to spring for GoT as well, due to budget limitations of your average college student. So my question is, if I got Troy, and installed it over my Spartan copy (thus enabl...

Re: When to start atttacking

At what point is a good idea to begin taking on the other peoples? Kevin Probably as fast as you can. Unless you did like I did and modded down the AI aggression to 30%, you're gonna get hit real hard, real fast, real soon. The sooner you start expanding, the better. But don't over extend yourself ...

Re: Too much gold

This seems to be the case in every patch.By buying alot of gems and incense at low price, the next turn the prices sky rocket, and you can make tremendous profit selling them.This can be repeated every turn, meaning you will have a superior economy in short time, thus making even impossible difficu...

If there is, I hope it's actually an improvement of more than just content. I was so disappointed with M2:TW. I hope that if they make a R2:TW, it will be much more content oriented. That's why I love Slitherine games, they are so content oriented.

Possum thanks for the response. But isn't it odd that you don't go through the "yellow" stage on the way down through the morale stages, just "go for it" to "Shaken" to "We're out of here"; that "yellow" only shows up when recovering morale. It woul...

If I have to go with just one, I have to pick the Crusades. However, I am also interested in other Dark Age/Medieval eras. Granted, I like all of the eras available in the poll, but Slitherine has predominately covered the more Ancient eras, and I think it would be neat to see a Slitherine game in t...
