Luckily I am 64 bit. More space on the hard drive then I know what to do with, so 12G is nothing. I have flash drives larger than that.

Quote:Leader: Gilgamesh
Leader Ability: Adventures with Enkidu. This ability has 3 parts:
He can declare war on anyone at war with one of his allies without any warmonger penalties.
When at war with a common foe, Sumeria and its allies share pillage rewards and share combat experience gains with the closest allied unit within 5 tiles.
Gilgamesh can levy City-State military forces at 50% of cost.
Let's all go to war!

I hate to tell you guys this, but "Darmok" is one of those episodes that have had lasting cultural impact, and I think most people in the wider geekosphere are going to recognize it. I know it, and I was barely two years old when it aired.
Also, I really hope someone mods in the Fate/stay night universe versions of Gilgamesh and Enkidu:

Only heard it on the show (and it's been fifteen years since I last saw it?) Took a guess. (I remembered pronunciation right, apparently. Wasn't even sure of that.) Don't really mind being out-geeked on the spelling.
What's the written source for the official spelling?
What else could I think of, when Gilgamesh and Enkidu are mentioned?
