Pretty good, how about the buck (and the bang for it?)

Eh...

Steam has it's downsides. You always have to connect to the server to be able to play. The upside is that you never need a cd. And all games are patched automatically. The multiplayer support for Valve games is good, Steam is a good platform for it. I'm not sure if it'd be as good for you, as a linux user. No clue.

On second thought guys, I've really no clue how to play this, and not the time to figure it out alone. You guys wanna start a succession game or something of the like? I could use the help with it.

Easy. You basically have to collect resources quickly and smash your opponents to pieces, like in every video game except the Sims and some other gay stuff.

Halfway through my first game, and it's every bit as awesome as the old col. It looks a lot like civ4, but I'm okay with that. A pity they haven't bothered to adapt the civ lingo to col lingo in the diplomacy screens, but oh well... I'm disappointed that I haven't found a single silver source so far though.

As for the SG, I'm in. Do we have enough players already? Who's in? The only complication: I can't upload images at c3dz... so what about cdz PP?

How long till the new site is up? I'd say you guys bring it in with style with this SG

I'd like to play, but I don't have the game yet. If you put me last on the roster, then I should be OK...

I've been playing a lot this weekend, when I found time.

It's a bit amazing to find a few bugs so soon

.

The game is top! Really got me sucked up.

Is it correct you cannot train veteran soldiers? I found that a bit weird. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
