    When asked if he was sure that Albion couldn’t be copyrighted due to its historical context, he replied: “I don’t know if I’m honest, I don’t really know… I hope so. I mean you would think that the responsible person I should be, I would’ve spent the last six months in lawyers’ offices…”

    Ugh. I kind of wish you would just go gracefully into the background Peter.

      He passed gracefully 2 or 3 “games” ago. The quotation marks, because they were basically abandoned for a new gimmick, without delivering.

        Godus had real promise, I played the early release. Absolutely never delivered on what it promised, implicitly or explicitly, though.

    Checks Wikipedia…

    Albion is an alternative name for Great Britain.

    Okay? Why don’t we just change the names of the towns and their locations on the map? Problem fixed!

    Edit: Spacing.
