Scenarios are great, especially the "fall of" series and colloseums

Treaty 20 all the way, with some TR 10 mixed in.

Well as some people know treaty 40 nb is my true love. Unfortunately I can't find the time anymore to get into those good old 3-4 hour long battles where I finally emerge victorious after outwitting my opponent by pulling all my little tricks. Though also FFA's are my other secret love since I somehow am always left alone until I'm in age 4 in a booming duel with 1 of the other guys while the rest are figting, and eventually I win gthe dual by getting to age 5 and being the first with spies then I go on my rampage :twisted:

i only like deathmatch and maybe TR10 beside of my true love to supremacy <333

deatmatch is fast, agile and action-packed. treaty10 is quite interesting because you don't have to worry of fights in the first 10min.

all the other modes(FFA,tr700h, tr40,tr30,etc.) are rubbish in my eyes.

whereas the game goes, TAD is best of course, after that i would only play nilla, twc is dead

maybe we can have some nice deathmatch games wicked, but i will only have lvl10 DM HCs :/

Used to play DM once in a while, but i do not know enough about it. Always played the dutchies and had some trouble vs some civs. If you can post a DM rec i would be thankful.

TR10 is ok, too. Sometimes you are in trouble facing an otto on carolina though. FR ftw -.-

I guess my next favorite after supremacy would be too play treaty 20, after playing one game with wicked I kind of got hooked on it. Now I even practice a bit to try to improve myself in this type of game.
