Mark my words, this game will be a hit. if not in the stores, its legacy will last and just as civilization was a revolution in strategy games. so too will eu be a revolution of sorts.
I already have two teachers of history interested in using this game to further students enjoyment and learning of this time period. I think using these games as learning tools are an awesome idea. If they like it and if it seems to work in the class effectively, we plan to write other schools about the idea.
You see i think this sort of game is not just for fun. but the level of history and attention to detail of the history covers both entertainment and educational realms, thats my kind of game.
Anyways, i am very pleased to see others praising this game in the industry, i wish you at paradox the very best. You have my support and interest. Perhaps when i fly to singapore and philippines again this year i can tell them about it too, get the ball rolling in asia, hint hint.....
Best to you eu team
