[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 767887, member: 1125"] Actually the Cressians have the Manouverability advantage not the Ta'Jinn. A Centaurs base speed is 50 however a Werewolf (Deltanes) base speed is also 50 and a Barbarian at 40 is only slightly slower. The deciding factor here however is size Centaurs as large Creatures are bigger targets and thus easier to hit. +1 Cressians Your development of Griffon Bombers however is a brillaint tactic (and shows the value of new blood:D) and bound to be absolutely devestating to Cressia until such time as they develop weather control magics - they already have Fog and have used Wind at least once historically (now gimme a Cloudkill and a few whirlwinds too) [b]Age of the Empires[/b] iirc correctly the Cressia-Ta'Jinn conflict took place in something equivalent to the late bronze era 1000 BC on Earth. After the rise of the first urban civilisations but before the widespread use of iron (sort of the era covered in the Scorpion King movie) If we go forward a step to say about 500 BC this puts us firmly into the 'Classical' period - Sidhartha Gautama (Buddha) is born in 563 BC; Athens has developed Democracy, the Warring States period occurs in China and the Jews have returned from the Babylonian Exile. Babylon itself is conquered by Persia and the Persian Empire goes on to conquer Egypt but fails to take Greece at the [URL=http://campus.northpark.edu/history//WebChron/Mediterranean/Marathon.html]Battle of Marathon in 490BC[/URL] (ps read this for a good summary of military tactics for the era viz ) Oh yeah The Olympics was started in 776 BC - perhaps the Stempa-Cressian-Ta'Jinn alliance hold a four yearly competiton as a means of maintaining peaceful relations between themselves!. And I say give the Stempans Iron [/QUOTE]
