Player: Wait a minute. Wasn't Alexander the Great a Macedonian? Why am I king of the Greeks?
Can you think of a better choice for a Greek king?
Player: Sure: Pericles, Alcibiades, Themistocles...
Show-off.
Player: ...Lysander, Agamemnon, Menelaus...

Nice.

Player: Great! I get to colonize America, hoard up treasure, and send it back to my capital. I'll win this conquest easily, especially because nobody else is interested in winning.
Queen Isabella: Hey, if you wanted more AI competition, you shouldn't have set the difficulty to Chieftain level.
Player: You misunderstand. I like it this way -- I get to win!

So true. So very, very true.

And I never played this expansion, but I did play Sid Meier's Colonization, which was a lot of fun and informational for US History class.

Excellent fiver, Tate. And Happy Birthday.
