Okay, I agree with Odyssey that Egypt will eat Greece alive, But I think Greece will still destroy babylon with thier siege, and besides, if your babylon and you opponent is siege, You wont think about attacking his gold mines first, youll think about walling in bacause once Greece gets through your defences, you are almost always dead.

Greece isn't bad. Cav, hoppers, throwers, and (believe it or not) bowmen work pretty well. To make them compete with the big boys though, ES should have given the +30% war ship speed to the fb/fs too. then. they would have an ever-so-small econemy bonus, comparable to mace's line of sight. in fact, if they had that, i'd rank greek as one of my fave 5 civs, right between mace and hittite

I`m outaged about your thoughts against the greeks. I only play the greeks! On thw water, with careful management, the greek can completely wipe out every other player. They have all the walls to get people out, all the towers, seige weapons, and naval. They have all but three technoligies without Rise of Rome(which are Jihad, Metallurgy, and Monthesism). Sure they`re weak in archery in calvalry, but I rely on my seige weapons and infantry if not my Juggeraughts. I`ll take on one of you, an amatuaer. But not ow, I have to keep my phone bill down. Tommorrow maybe. Bye for today.
