Why is Bismarck's music the one you could hear in Civ2 when you killed off another civilization?
Why do I have an urge to say "Gesundheit" every time I read or hear the name "Hatshepsut"?
Why do I always start on the very arse of the world?
Why do I spend half of my time saying nay to open border or other agreements?
And why am I doomed to spend even more time when I say aay, being bothered by all others to cancel those deals?
Why do I always play all my games just in one session?
How come that Versailles reduces maintenance, where in reality those guys there blew quite a lot of money away?
Is ArghlmmpfwarghlAAAAAHHH a word or did I get the mad cow disease after that "little corporal" flanked me? :rolleyes:

- Cuz you got West Nile Fever

- See above post

- Cuz you spend the other half saying aye

- Cuz you didn't say nay

- Possibly you have a lot of free time, I suggest a hobby

- Cuz it was your money they spent, so they saved a lot

Yeah! it was cool in Civ2 but it sucks as a Nation Soundtrack.

Maybe because in real life he "killed off" a bunch of civilizations?

Well, maybe your ancestors orignally lived in ancient Egypt and in ancient Eygptian "Hatshepsut" means "Gesundheit," and it is ingrained in your genes to associate the two?

You're not the only one...

Asake said:

Think of it this way: You're popular!

Because everyone wants you to be their friend, and their friend only.

I would suggest another hobby, see everyone else's post.

Because Versailles needed to do SOMETHING. Hell, in Rise of Nations it makes your supply wagons heal your troops... how much sense does that make?

No, her name just sounds like someone is sneezing IMO.
Another hobby? I don't think so. I just like to use my free days to play a single huge game. I don't play every day you know, but once I play I cannot stop until the world is in my grip :D
 
Bismarck's music is, AFAIK, also the music when you lost in Civ I. It is Beethoven's funeral march, the 2nd Movement from his 3rd "Eroica" Symphony. Yes, it is strange that Bismarck gets funeral music. Preußens Gloria would have been a better choice, IMHO.

Think of the tourist hordes who want to visit Versailles...

That's an interesting, if a little bewildering, take on history. Wanna elaborate there, Mr Knight?
