Ahh Egypt . . .
Your lands stretch from the jungles to the sea
Home of the fourth most cultured people on the PLANET!
(uh, sir?)
Your opinion is sought after by the all the top empires
(ahem, sir!)
And Brennus, good king of the Celts, why, you're the best of friends!
(sir, i believe we're under attack)
Nonsense, I believe they've come to view our splendid spaceship:
(sir, there appears to be a yellowish haze in the air after something fell from the sky)
I do believe it's those silly billy bandits.

Pay it no mind.
(sir, you really should-)
Ahh, the heads of state again:
They've come to admire the view of the crystal waters:
Lovely . . .
[so, pacal declared about five turns in, while my wife was decorating the xmas tree. apparently, he hates christmas. we stood really no chance, so i fired off a Golden Age, and watched the world burn. And it did...brennus declared on sally, w nukes going back and forth. liz attack bren w a nuke as well. she's got 2 legendary cities and pacal has a bunch of parts...ahh... a good ai.
love to know who won but there's no "one more turn" option anymore on steam?]
ahh, but what a ride. satisfied the variant, lost the game. sounds about right. i guess old world then? can only settle IN rivers?
