We-ell, describing Belphegor (a somewhat obese snake-man) as a 'seducer of men' should make any self-respecting gym queen think "in his dreams maybe".

Actually, for me, Google turned up a reference to Doms II before finding one to the Theban Sacred Band, the historical precedent the Heart Companions are presumably based on.

Re: Starting to get frustrated with this game
Well in my history books Campagnons were Alexander Heavy cavalry unit, not phalangist.
Darius armies got the kind of people the game impersonnate as the Heart Companions but they are called the Immortals.
That was the first thing I notice when I look into Arcos armies.

Re: Starting to get frustrated with this game
Dominions has a save game function. It's called "tar -cf".

Heh, you know, the amusing thing is that "Immortals" were a total misnomer: They weren't anything close to immortal. Rather, they died easily and were very quickly replaced, giving enemies the impression that they were immortal. Of course, "The Expendables" isn't quite as inspiring a name. |

Not in Gatesburg there isn't. It's been declared anathema by the Lord High Priest Billy. |
