OK So maybe CivIV Warlords aint so bad
 

So I started a noble game as the Romans and beelined to Iron Working to get some Praetorians out nice and quick. With a stack of 10 I set to work on the local Mongols who get some serious ass-whuppin. Then I get one of them Military Dudes in my capital and he shares his love with a single Praetorian.

City Raider I [+20% City Attack]

I'm starting to like this game.

which one is that little guy winking at you ?

Pretty sure that was the Morale one, like a little smiley face.

He's pretty damned good. Is there a limit to how much XP you can get on a single unit?

Also he will upgrade along the upgrade path keeping his XP as he goes. He should go far unless I get him killed.

I've seen screenshots of units with XP's over 100, so i guess the only limit is how long the unit survives or the game ends

theres no limit to the amount of exp needed.

remember city raider is one of the best upgrade paths as a grenadier with 3 city raiders is truly awesome :)

It looks like Praetorians upgrade all the way to Machanized Infantry :)

Dont forget to download Blake's Improved AI. It makes a real difference and a much tougher game - even with praetorians

Col, that's implemented in the last patch. ;)

Only playing on Noble btw. And pretty sure the Greek are gonna stab me in the back if I over extend.

I just wish the game played quicker. Why is there always a slight delay between the end of your turn and the flashing bit which says Press Enter to End Turn? I always find myself hitting Enter four or five times before the turn actually finishes :(

better than the 5/10 minutes i get while the AI moves :)
