When the english language arrived in North America through the 17th century it was before these influences and shielded from them, in effect separated. So we see words like centre and center, colonise and colonize etc. Unfortunately globalisation and American made computer companies are teaching much of the World the Americanised spellings.

Of course this has little bearing on grammar and I have no doubt made many mistakes of my own here, however "ain't I right?" is surely in breach of many rules of english.

Languages in use change and evolve, dead languages, like latin, are a constant.
Not true, its from the 11th century, when Guillaume invade the island, is just that usa ( i dont like to said amerain .... ) elvove in other direction

Sry for the english agains.

IF the game is playable ? ? Just to know how good is the AI I hope we can do surprise attack, from behind
