Default Re: \"How it started.\"

It's a lot simpler for me. There aren't many turn-based strategy games one can play on OS X on a 5-yr old iMac (400Mhz G3).

I downloaded the demo and had great fun as Machaka, marching my spider armies up the "Iberian" peninsula on the Aran map. I had no idea what I was doing, and I remember being surprised and delighted every time my mages starting casting a new evocation spell on the battlefield.

On turn 39 (last demo turn), I figured I would see what a god could do in combat. So I sent my Ghost King against a big enemy army only to find...he sneaked!

Of course, by then the check was already in the mail for the full game.
