Yeeeeaaaaahhhh!!!!
(I got the game [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
And I have to say, I am VERY impressed! I've started a game as the Egyptians. My initial plan was to send two armies - one heading west along the north of Africa, taking Spain from the bottom to sweep over Europe. And another to head north and do a circular motion opposite to the other route. Eventually, they would meet up and move out throughout the rest of Europe. Oh, how wrong I was...
Almost immediately, my neighbour to the west offered an allegience. Of course, I could not refuse this - I would gain guaranteed protection of anyone invading from Africa or some Spanish explorers. With that taken care of, I focused my attention on going the other way around. However, one country went a bit out of their way to stop that from happening as much as possible.
... The Turks [img]tongue.gif[/img] . It took a lot of battles and reinforcements, but eventually I sieged their forts and forced them off the land... and the neutral Byzantines just spectated happily [img]smile.gif[/img] .
Well, that's about all that's happened so far. I'm thinking of starting a separate game as more of a European country so that I can experience conquering very well known places ASAP.
And I haven't tried any of the real-time battles yet (except in the tutorial) because I'd get my ass kicked [img]tongue.gif[/img] .
*Sigh*... nothing can stop my thousands of camels...
