    Hold your mouse over the title for a bit next time.
    You cannot pick and choose what to follow from your holy books. If you are truly a Christian, you must follow the bible by the letter. One read through Leviticus, where the disabled are barred from Church attendance, and homosexuals should be the least of your worry. It's the whole book or none of it, and to follow the whole book is to be immoral.
    So it goes.

    "the Lord your God hates people" - Dt 22.5

    You know, I can`t help, but notice this verse you`ve posted. You do realise that you`ve taken one passage to actually convey the message the wrong way. It would be more accurate to say God finds people annoying because they never managed to do anything that he says they should do.

    If you believe in a God and if he really hated people, then we would all be gone a long time ago.

    I don`t believe in God, but neither do I like things being taken out of context either. Just saying.
    A plea to CA: Please give us NON-STEAM OPTIONS such as with GOG.COM`s Alan Wake and Witcher 2, etc. Even allow a system such that Mount and Blade Uses. Many of us will pay extra for a Steam-free version of RTW2.
    The use of STEAM-ONLY by CA is ethically wrong because:
    1. It does not need to be forced. It could be optional as other games have proven.
    2. It discriminates between internet users and non-users or those who simply do not want it.
    3. The `advantages` are only advantages in a very small and superficial manner. They do not counter the disadvantages.
    4. It suits the company way more than the user. We are simply told it`s better for us
    Finally,I shall not give CA|SEGA my money for RTW2 while it forces Steam on me. They have given us no good reason why it must be so. Basically they don`t care.

    A Steam Option would benefit ALL. Don`t fight us, JOIN us.
    Games don`t need forced Steam

    It has to do with certain people telling me God loves everyone, when it says right there he hates people. It doesn't matter to me the context, the fact is he still hates people. Therefore, the "loving" God illusion is wrong.

    I haven't noticed overly large AI stacks when I played normal, but hard and up allow the AI to field more than they normally would be able to. Makes sense to me.

    But the Bible is absolute! :O But that's why I don't believe this religious mumbo-jumbo. Every time it's different, and yet the same, and there are those who say one things and then those who say another thing and each way is the one "true" way. All a bunch of to me.

    "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." Deuteronomy 22:5

    It's clearly a conditional statement, even if we completely ignore the context of the rest of the book. Regardless of whether you believe in a God or not, you saying "the lord your god hates people" = DT 22.5 is a complete and utter (though hopefully not intentional) misrepresentation of the original passage. I find that odd coming from you, because you are so adamantly against some of CA's more dishonest practices in other threads.

    Yes the cheating AI is horribly annoying, but I don't think CA is capable of creating anything better or they would have done it by now, because the AI has done this in all(?) other TW games. I think this is the best way they imagine they can pose some sort of challenge to the player; by simply spamming you to death.

    SO, TO GET BACK ON TOPIC.

    Obama just assaulted me with 3 full stacks of line and Shogunate infantry (With a couple of cannons thrown in)
    They have one province and no economical buildings.

    I'm guessing they saved some wealth from when they were larger, but that seriously caught me off guard.
