I just bought this game "Legion" by Slitherine. The game allegedly provides huge realistic battles and "epic gameplay". Is tis true?

You can go to www.europa-universalis.com and read the messageboards devoted to Legion.

And you can download the additional patches to the game that make it substantially more enjoyable game from the reviews I have read.

Respectfully,

Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix

The game won't be out for quite a while. It's still in the development
phase. It is set ahead of our own time but I'm not sure how far. It was a
small article with few details. The game is by Mythic (same company that
did Dark Age of Camelot). In this alternate future the Roman Empire extends
into the far reaches of space.

Salvete, omnes.

I believe this is the official website of the game, just in case you
felt like checking it out further. :)

Sounds like fun, and my friends tell me that earlier titles ("Dark Age
of Camelot" in particular) by the same developers are great games, so
with any luck this'll be a good one, too.

Master "P';

You may well be incensed. I certainly was when I first read your
original comments, but as with most things like this, I am sure that I
will recover.

Yes, this list is a place for reasonable debate and the exchange of
ideas. I don't agree with yours, and you apparently do not agree with
mine. Nothing new here, pretty much the same thing as goes on all the
time on this list.

If you say that I missed your point, then I would ask that you make your
point clearer. If you say that I have in some way twisted your words,
then explain it in a clearer fashion, don't just get mad about
it--remember ---- you have said this is a place for "an exchange" of
ideas, not necessarily an agreement to any given set of ideas. I have
stated my views, and you have stated yours, however, the topic under
discussion has little interest for me, since I do not indulge in such
language, nor do I wallow in it. There are, in my view, much more
honorable and dignified areas to study in ancient Roma, rather than how
uneducated people expressed thier frustrations, simply because they did
not have a reasonable command of the language of thier day. As a young
man in military service, I once thought such language was necessary, but
wiser heads convinced me otherwise, and now as an adult, I do not need
such reminders as you have produced , nor do I wish to continue this
discussion on this list as I consider it to be counterproductive to NR.

Seas!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I thought we were done with this mudd slinging, but Senator Marcus Menucius
Audens insists in keeping it on. He attacked me and accused me of insulting
America and the whole world; blank accusation without evidence; his word and
interpretation and through a back door too.

For those who were not in on what happened, there was a very civilized
exchange going on in the forum about obscenity and its place in language and
culture, and some also brought up civil liberties and that there isn't more
obscenity in our society than before, but that we are more free to express
them, and that's why it is more visible. And that was what I had written my
response to.

I did reffer to obscenity in the American Language and was critical about
the education level, and that is because I live in America and know more
about it than any other place as do most of the people in this forum. If we
were in China or Russia, it would've been china or Russia or Mars for that
matter.

Senator Minucius didn't like that and instead of rebuffing the argument he
went after the messenger, dragging my good name in the mudd, misrepresenting
what I said, and accusing me of insulting the whole planet. He did not
reproduce my text on which he based his accusations, and even changed the
heading to Digest number 121, and for a moment I almost deleted it, without
reading it, when I noticed that he was talking about me. In fact, there
were even some in the forum at loss inquiring what is this Digest 121. And
so there it was Senator Minucius telling the whole world how I insulted them
charged with a rather righteous heavy dose of indignation. Blank accusation
by a senator against me, about things I am supposed to have said. That is
not right.

I am here to say that I did not insult South America, or Central America, or
North america. Nor did I insult the Spanish people whom I happened to
admire greatly, and in fact have a special affection for. Nor did I insult
the Brits or the mediterraneans, or any of the peoples and countries listed
and implied by Senator Minucius. In fact all the above were not reffered to
directly or indirectly. The discussion was not about peoples.

I think this is an open forum for free and civilized exchange of ideas, and
if somebody disagree with anybody, rebuff his argument with an argument, but
no one, and I mean NO ONE has the right to dragg down anybody's good name to
the mudd. That, Sir, is unacceptable.

Gaius Galerius Peregrinator.

P. Cornelia Strabo Forum Subscriptii s.p.d.

Given that the general content of the last few messages has drifted
far away from having any fruitful application to the current culture
of Nova Roma or of Roma antiquita, and seeing as the last few
messages are becoming quite personal in nature, causing verbal insult
and injury, as opposed to 'agreement to disagree', I must ask that
further discussion of this subject be more stringently confined to
Nova Roma or Roma antiquita, or such discussion is to be taken up in
private.
