Just caught up. Enjoying the LP so far. I tl;dr all the effort posts in this thread so I hope you find some time in the videos to talk about the weirder quirks of this game.

One thing that's neat about this game is that if one of your heroes drops you can kill them forever by putting a building over their corpse.

Could an enemy do that as well?

What they don't tell you about the Odyssey is that it wasn't Circe who fell in love with Odysseus and compelled him to stay with her. No, in the original story, Polyphemus himself was besotted with the great general, and for a time his affections were returned. But one night Odysseus dreamt of his Penelope and, upon waking, slunk shame-facedly to his ship, where his men waited for him. Polyphemus was heartbroken, but felt he could not tell the other giants, who, sensing his heartbreak, found for him a bride.

And on the day of their wedding, they asked him, Polyphemus, is there anyone you hold dearer to you than your sweet wife?

And he whispered,

"Nobody."

I like these Underworld stages, they really feel like they did something completely different with the AoM engine.

Super exciting for the Egyptian part! The maps get really fun here. Although I'm worried Melth is just too good, and so we'll not have time to appreciate them.

I do worry about this too. It would be nice if someone were to do a more casual playthrough alongside Melth's insanely good strategies.

Hey Melth I gave someone I know on IRC a link to your Youtube channel and they're loving this LP (and so am I, btw), and say they wish you'd LP more RTS games in the future.
