 Pretty self explanatory I think. After due consideration I have informed Mongoose that Team Omega would like to play ETHIOPIA in the forthcoming deathmatch, erm game. What swung it was probably Zig who convinced me that maybe the Oromo wasn't such a useless unit after all, and maybe we could do something with it. The main reasons were: It will probably surprise the opposition; it doesn't matter what sort of map we play on; the creative trait and its culture boost is enormously helpful - you don't have to have a religion, you don't have to build early culture-producing buildings and the defensive advantages are huge; the Organised trait saves 50% on upkeep which is arguably as good as Financial, and a lot less dependent on position; some of my favourite buildings (library, theatre, lighthouse, courthouse and others) are built double quick; we start with mining and hunting, both quite aggressive techs; the Stele gives a 25% culture boost (25%!); in my experience Ethiopia always seems to do well as an AI - in our hands it can only do even better. I hope you can all live with this. I played trials as both Korea and Ethiopia, and the latter was just easier and that, frankly, has got to be an advantage especially against a human team.
