Well my son Craig just told me his score for History this semester is 100.. said the rest of the kids in class are around 80%..

Craig is constantly playing Vicky II.. CK II.. EU IV and some HOI II..

Lol.. I think he learned something in the process!

I could use your son's help figuring out Victoria II.

lol.. me too!.. He likes that one the most.. He said he's really liking it now, as they are moving into World War I in History..

I tried to get him into AGEOD Civil war and AJE and he wasn't interested.. not sure if he just didn't like turn based.. if he doesn't like those, he definitely wouldn't bite on WWI gold (which I already have, yet to learn lol)..

He's usually fiddling on his Ipad or Guitar while playing.. so I guess a game like Vicky 2 mostly plays itself with him just making decisions now and then.

^Wait...that's how it's supposed to go??

lol - my experience of Paradox games is that you don't have to make decisions "now and again"...you are constantly bombarded with messages!

He did not learn anything from Paradox. It just sparked his interest in the subject matter. :D

If he learned anything from paradox it would to be able to get his exam paper back, make a few corrections and hand it back in.... And charge the tutors 20 dollars for the privilege!
