I’m fine mate thanks, I hope things get better for you chaps in Greece, though I fear that may take some time. I’m not sure if certain countries [Germany France etc] want to have more power and centralised politics, essentially they want a united states of Europe which they control. This is why Britain kept out of the Euro and have strong ties with America. Eventually Spain Italy and Greece could be forced to hand over more political power, though will still ‘appear’ to be independent. Mostly I think they want to get rid of most cash jobs and tax you all more! Capitalism cant work without centralisation of money partly from taxes. I could be wrong! I was watching a TV show where management at a German car manufacturer was complaining about paying for the Greeks, then a minute later contradicted himself and said how they exported loads of cars to Greece during the boom. So they didn’t mind taking Greeks money and now they complain! Having said that from what I understand [forgive me if I am wrong], much of the problems come from Greek government and its ‘aristocracy’ - if you will. I fear for what will happen, one part of me thinks a revolution is the only way out, the other part of me thinks they will pounce on Greece like a pack of wolves if that happens. I wish you all well anyway, there is always light at the end of the tunnel.

nice name you chose quetzaldoodledoo clever! how are you Richard? everything fine? i hope so. here things are very bad, in some cases even worse than you could imagine. sadness, unemployment, problems, pain and many suicides... those ****ing polititians and banks should be hanged in most cases for the disasters they create to people who did not cause these situations. i really like Nigel Farage. he says many true things but greek tv channels are following the traitors and do not show important stuff...only what they are paid from eu leaders say...and create fear and wrong decisions to the people. at least sun, sea and oxygen are still free for every Greek...
Like my new user name? not exactly greek but greek based ...kinda Looking forwards to rome2 ~ sparta5?! Hope everything’s ok with you and your folk in Greece, its shameful how people are all being treated now! Its Quetzalcoatl btw lol
thanks mate!
Happy birthday Richard or should i say Quetzaldoodleedoo
I’m fine mate, what kind of soldier did they have, did they wear an attica helm, have large shields still or were they similar to the Macedonians?
Hi Richard, how are you? the corinthian helmet is awesome but it was not used at that period.
Hi mate, I could do with some help deciding what greeks to use for sparta4, and some info on what they would historically have looked like during the alex and early roman period [everyone keeps saying that the Corinthian helm is wrong etc]. I made a thread on this in the Sparta forum.
Good morning Richard. Did you have a great celebration yesterday?
