In the old days, I had Populus (SP?) in French for my Amiga. It was quite funny as for ages I had no Idea what was going on, my people would tell me things, but I couldn't understand them

Race ? You will surely win, Sir T., I cannot play more than 1 1/2 hours a day, as I am a married woman with a kid and can't start playing before 9 PM ...
Unless I play full time during the BIIIG week-end of the Ascension (?), May 23-27th ! But you will surely have finished by then. I am halfway through the Bandits Camp - you ?
I remember the great days when my husband and me were still students and made a race to be the first to finish Ultima (4 and 5) - we played for a full week, days and night ! It was before the multi games, and it was fun !
The game was 'Populous', I didn't play it but my husband did. How did you manage to play it without understanding French ???
And how did you end up with a French version ?
You will probably find it weird, but since I have always played PnP and computer RPGs in English, now I understand better RPG terms in English than in French. And I feel that most of these terms sound silly when translated in French. I hate throwing 'projectile magiques' instead of Magic Missiles !

And now I have the knives to open it ...
