If anyone's interested, I was updating my AOC and AOC: Lite when I scrolled through the developer's page and found AOC: Africa on sale for the next 7 days.
It costs $0.00 right now instead of the list price given.
Of course, if you want to support the developer monetarily, you may ignore this offer.

AoC2 comes out this Thursday, don't see a reason to play AoC1 after that. But still thanks for the heads up! |

So lukasz just posted another video about aoc2, it comes out on 22-11-2018 for Windows (steam) and will come out later for Android and iOS. In other news, The Netherlands just beated France 2 to 0, meaning Germany is officially demoted to group 2, NL 'only' needs to draw against Germany in order to be head of the group. Damn, who expected that. The world champion of 2014, Germany The world champion of 2018, France The country that didn't even qualify for 2018, the Netherlands. And still for some reason NL has it in its own hands now. Sadly it seems like we're going to lose against der Deutschers. Still a solid second place though. |

 Ah turn 2 and conquered half of the US already! I must be so good! Oh wait, I'm not There's this game-breaking glitch. Since US-NL relations are good in the beginning of the game there's like an 80% chance for a trade to succeed, however the ai doesn't look at the trade itself. So I basically traded 1 gold for half of the us. Then the US simply accepted it. Let's "enjoy" this exploit while we still can. |

Activity Tracker for this November:   WC4 has (narrowly) passed EW6! Probably a lot to do with Easytech's event, but it's still remarkable. The amount of posts has been increased by 261 since the last measurement, The amount of posts from WC4 has been increased by 242 since the last measurement, Coincidence? I think not! Hotel? Trivago! WC3 has had a good month, with increasing activity. The opposite can be said about EW5, after being 2/3 for like half a year it's now down to 5. This is the first time that EW6 isn't the biggest game on this forum ever since the release of the game. Total percentages: 1. WC4 40.8% (+2) from 18.8% 2. EW6 40.2% (-1) from 44.6% 3. EW4 9.2% (+1) from 11.5% 4. WC3 5.1% (+1) from 2.4% 5. EW5 4.6% (-3) from 22.7% 6. GoG 0.1% (-) from 0% 7. GoG2 0% (-1) from 0% |

Good news, AOC II has been released in Google Play Store! In my country's currency, it costs $5.
Note: This is a duplicate announcement in case members miss it in the Other Games of Interest Board.

Just read an article about the death of languages.
It started describing the "death of the Frankish language", a West-Germanic language originating from France, it claimed people just stopped speaking it.
Immediately stopped reading the article,
first of all Frankish was spoken by the Franks, a Germanic tribe, not the French, a Celtic/Roman ethnic group, the Franks predominantly lived in Belgium (okay, also in Northern France).
Second of all, I speak a Frankish language every single day, for Dutch is a Frankish language.
Other totally not death Frankish languages other than Dutch (28 M speakers) include Afrikaans (10.3 M), Limburgish (1.3 M), Ripuarian/Kölnisch (Cologne) (0.9 M) Lëtzebuergesch (0.4 M) and some other smaller dialects.
I think that if I wasn't born in the Netherlands, I probably wouldn't know that Dutch is a Frankish language and would believe this article.
This article probably just assumed French and Franks to be the same thing as they do look like false cognates, especially since the Frankish kingdom (again, originating from Belgium) conquered roughly the entire area of France. Secondly, since French is of course a Romance language and not a Germanic language it probably assumed they just replaced one other due to Roman influences.
This ones again proves how wrong the Internet is, and you should never really take information for granted, unless you hear it from multiple higher quality sources.

Btw, "Frank" is Proto-Germanic for "The brave one", if you're curious
