A term from the Age of Empires 2 (AoE2) community which refers to a player who has picks the Persian civilization, then deletes their starting Town Center and rebuilds it within firing distance of the enemy Town Center. Persians are one of the few civilizations that can do this reliably since their Town Center has double hitpoints, though Byzantines get an honorable mention. It is generally considered a meme strategy, but is sometimes able to stress and tilt opponents into a chaotic tactical position or outright resigning, and has a controversial reputation among players.
