Awww, and I just got Circle Masters too! I was finally going to have non-pitiful research
Good game tho, noobs! I think that both CTis and Sauro, my two enemies, must have learned a ton. CTis in particular I want to say performed admirably under difficult conditions - well done, Darloth!
And sept dont beat yourself up over the game settings. Truthfully, I think that this game was set up almost perfectly. Even with our comparative early advantage in size, all us vets knew that with the right tactics you noobs would have slaughtered us anyway. It was just a matter of experience and agressiveness - which to me, is the heart of what this game is about, right? So well done there also, I say.
