Shogun was alright, but I honestly don't see what all the buzz was about. There were some cool new features, but like others have said they battles were pretty stale.

I did get a chance to play around with Rome 2, and I tell most people to avoid it like plague and get the original instead
Rgr that.

Give me a shout if you want a mp game sometime.

So in about 10 years then? No worries, I'm not grand master either so I reckon it wouldn't take long to get on par with me.

Currently downloading Zulu mod as well as The Great War Mod 5.1 and patches. Should be interesting to check out.

Interesting that The Great War Mod has reached 5.1 - I played it back in the very early versions and whilst it showed promise was quite clunky and with units "copy-pasted" across most nations - if it's improved I may have to give it a whirl again!
