Played Phil’s Marian Romans today. Very convincing win to the Romans though my Athenians were holding them for a while.

Vincent Cholewa Stone walls will not save Athens. According to the Oracle of Delphi:
“Though all else shall be taken, Zeus, the all seeing, grants that the wooden wall only shall not fail.”
