Paia Groject

Aaah... auctions; is there another topic which keeps us Gaia Project nerds arguing for days with the same passion?

I don't think so. Listen to my take on it, so you as well can disagree with... someone. That'll be fantastic.

Just when you thought there would have been no more episodes, here's an unexpected Ambas guide!

A slightly sad Matteo tries to make up for the absence of his buddy by talking to you about this... really good faction, let's face it.

So enjoy it, and of course give us (no, sadly... me) your feedback! The expansion is coming out, so these guides should really be done as soon as possible!

Yeah, I cannot pronounce "versatile", I know.

Ok so the Hadsch guide is finally here, and packs more than 2 hours of us saying basically that the faction... isn't that great. But bear with us,  there's much more than that, and maybe, MAYBE, you can find some useful advice for your games with our beloved chickens.

At times, our connections had problems, so the audio from Matteo fades out, sorry about that.
