Newbie questions? Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Can someone please tell me what RoR means?

When I read your articles I find many other abbreviations(?) i don't understand. Where can i find a list of these? (if there is such a list)

RoR= Rise of Rome (one of the pre-made scenarios included in the Conquests expansion pack)

As for a list of all acronyms, I've never seen one. If there are other ones you don't know, feel free to post them and someone will happily translate them for you.

Thank you! Wondered about an article I read concerning the use of armys, and I didn't understand the talk concerning RoR.

Here's the Glossary. It's very long, yet still manages to be incomplete.

Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

To more fully attain incompleteness, try the 'abbrreviation' thread topped in this forum...

Well, it's hard to keep up with dynamic Webslang. At least we usually use whole words (or whole acronyms). Usually.

There's one right at the top of the forum, called "Abbreviations, abbreviations". It's been there for ages.

Yeah, sure, now you tell me!!!! Admit it: they just put it up there, and have made up this "it's been there all along" story to mess with my head!!

This is sad: I've been here for years and never even noticed that thread. Thanks for pointing it out.
