Been playing Millenia, and recently reviewed it on Steam. There is a good game somewhere in Millenia. It has quite a few good concepts. The multiple currencies (Warfare, Wealth, Engineering, etc) is compelling. However, the Barbarian spam is horrendous. You need multiple armies to keep the barbarians in check, all of which costs Wealth. Oh, you do not have resources that helps you generate Wealth, Oh Well! Too Bad! The Barbarians do not go after the AI's towns, yet I have lost games because a wave of Barbs knock out my city, even when guarded. "Well, you should have built defenses!" True, but the AI should have to build defenses as well. But they do not have to. Have not seen an AI civ get knocked out by Barbs. They will attack an AI's troops, but only if they can not reach your troops. Barbs are basically another civ that is primarily focused on the player. Some other issues.. Many of the resources are weak. Gross imbalances between National Spirits. Some are simply way stronger. Difficulty in gaining some currencies, primarily Engineering and Diplomacy, see National Spirits. The game tries to force you to be militaristic, since AI civs will forward settle you hard, especially since they do not have to deal with the Barbs like the player does. As I said, the game has great potential. I simply do not recommend the game in its current state. As the game gets refined, I will be more than happy to change my review.

You are correct. I am only aware of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds version.

Apparently the show uses the song, but the song is far older. Also, that is not the title.

The song is Next attempt.. Take a little walk to the edge of town And go across the tracks Where the viaduct looms Like a bird of doom As it shifts and cracks Where secrets lie in the border fires In the humming wires Hey man, you know You're never coming back Past the square, past the bridge Past the mills, past the stacks

She's so fine She's so sweet Mom and Pop they raised her On huge slabs of meat She's fine A man of nine Water derby day Twenty six pumps on a Crossman And it's time to play

Not Carol Kaye. The person I am speaking of actually auditioned with Metallica after Cliff Burton's death.

This band is headed by one of the most innovative bass players that has ever lived. When I roamed young I'd scavenge around Every nook and cranny Of our little town

It is not.

There's a time for lies And a time for truth I say eye for an eye Eye for a tooth

Under Pressure- Queen feat. David Bowie

That is probably the only one of their bigger hits that I don't have on my regular play list. Not that I do not like the song, just forgot to put it on there.

Nah.. That honor goes to either Warrant's Cherry Pie, or Pour Some Sugar on Me by Def Leppard.

That it is. Your go.

It is not Eric Idle.
