I have had some free time on my hands and enjoy using the Axim to kill the free time. Usually it's done by playing some games. I'm at the point of expanding past Space Trader and into Viking Saga. I'm kind of a sucker for turn based stratgy type games. The game has a nice idea and I can see the potential of it being serious fun with a larger degree of replay than some games. The problem I have is that you can only seem to play it for about 15 minutes before all the cities are Christianized and the game is over. I have set the level to easy and the beginning Christian cities to zero and have tried it being a skilled fighter & skilled trader. I also only stick to trading in coastal cities. There just doesn't seem to be enough time to build up a fleet, soldiers & reputation to remotely get to an end game scenario. Is this normal, is it that hard of a game? I have read about a evb runtime program but I thought that was installed in order to make the program even run. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
