    that's my fault. I see a thing that will react when poked, I poke it.

    you look terribly right wingy also forcing people to speak english seems pretty unamerican to me, seeing as depending on where you live it could be that not even your state has english as the official language.

    i think integrating immigrants is important. otherwise you end up with conflict. and who said anything about forcing ppl to do something? I'm a libertarian, I support maximum liberty including free immigration

    Your definition of force is someone telling you yo do something? interesting. do you not think people should speak dutch in the lowlands?

    It's great, and if you like it, Suburbia Inc. is generally regarded as a must-have expansion for it. I think it's much better than castles of mad king ludwig, which is a similar game from the same designer (and currently far more popular)

    I have bought new online (from individuals), and also completed trades of used games. Haven't had an issue.

    they speak dutch, french, flemish, frisian, and german in the lowlands ( as the low countries also known as the Benelux are comprised of Belgium, netherland, and Luxembourg) however in the Netherlands official documents are written in Dutch and sometimes Frisian as those are the official languages . however people can speak whatever language they want.

    Never Alone is a great atmospheric game. Not sure who recommended it to me.

    Battlestar Galactica is generally regarded as the best 'hidden traitor' game. It's one of my favs as well.

    Battlestar Galatica really captures the "feel" of the universe well. You do feel like you are always one step away from being blown to bits.
