If we can all build Greek hoplites, my change to pikemen was not really that necessary.

Good point.

Not exactly. Hoplites will upgrade to Musketeers then to Guerillas and that's it. Spearmen upgrade to Pikemen who upgrade to Musket men, to Riflemen and so on. So the upgrade path is better (if you can afford it).

Flandrien - do you want to change your mind?

I was planning to start the game tomorrow so you still have time (just).

Flandrien, if you need a suggestion for a rule change:

If Legionaries are available to everyone we could give them the ability to build roads and fortifications since the great Roman roads everyone talks about were actually built by the Legions.

I would suggest not giving them the Hidden Nationality ability though.

No, they have no pop, they can't join to a city, they can't build a colony or outpost, all they can do is build roads and fortifications.

God Lord, I hope I can keep track of all these changes. When one of you guys is trampling my cities with legions and hoplites I'll be thinking, "Rats, I forgot I could build those . . . ."

OK, I have started a turns thread.
