^^ i definitely 'played' that. I was all over Encarta back in the day. I'm glad I live in the hypertext era, so much better than paging to one of the articles listed as related in meatspace encyclopedias

I guess Saladin is an Arab.

he was Kurdish fwiw

I forget if I've posted in here yet, either way I guess I wanna thank the op for showing us gaming history, and it's a fun game to walk along with, to add a little more meat to this pedantic post

there was also another Barbarossa who was like a pirate captain for the Ottomans, I think he was ethnic Albanian. just to complicate things a little more

something about pterodactyl-riding insects attacking an apparently crossbow-armed airship feels like a real missed opportunity for a standard trope. all these years, and has this theme been revisited? maybe it has

i guess the insects might be the good guys this time???

thanks for walking us through that game, i enjoyed it. this kind of LP is good history writing

pretty cool from iggy's perspective that he gets taken on a wild ride and now he gets to hang out in Witness Protection Heaven for... ever?
