    The "Big Huge Games" forum has been renamed "Big Huge Games: Rise of Nations", hence a) the reflection of the company's recently announced premiere title and b) that it is to be for <I>Rise of Nations</I> coverage, not <I>SimGolf</I> or any other title.

    Finally, in closing, I will again confirm there will be no <I>SimGolf</I> forum on Apolyton.

        Even the "peaceful" victory option still required a lot of fighting in AoE though. With RoN, you can win with just a few minor skimishes, if that.

          You base this on what exactly?

            Explain why there is a Rise of Nations forum? It doesn't belong.

              Why is there a MOO forum? An EU forum?

              There are three answers to these questions. A) They are remotely Civ-connected. B) We aren't a Sid site. C) The owners want it that way. So sod off with your Simgolf forum idea.

                I base it on options that allow you to make the computer much more passive and options to make war undesirable.

                  Why is there a MOO forum? Why is there an EU forum? I don't understand it myself.

                  A SimGolf forum deserves as much play as those two up there and the crap game that BHG is making.

                      <I>SimGolf</I> is not within the scope of Apolyton gaming coverage in any substantive sense while, for example, <I>Master of Orion III</I> is.

                        And how do RTS games get included into the equation?

                          It has to do with civilization. SimGolf, on the other hand, doesn't. SimGolf still isn't generating that many posts right now either.

                            See the points that Apocalypse mentioned above.

                            I just have to ask: are you trying to intentionally pick a fight with an administrator, Imran, or what?
