Getting sick of Beorn's ambiguous battle logs, Gen. W?

How is it ambiguous? I've done it all game like this, I just made a mistake once ...

I was just hoping that after this exchange…
Before I go completely crazy here - can you clarify if that "teal" musket you killed is mine - or if it belong to Niklas?


I actually don't remember that, …



If you use Blue for me, and Green for Niklas it'll be easier to read your battle logs.
"teal" is kind of an in-between color. :lol:


… maybe you’d switch to blue.

But that said – I guess I kinda forgot you’ve always been using teal. I’m just so used to using blue for myself. Before now, it’s been more obvious who you were attacking – but now with so many of our forces in eachother’s territories – and your great “infinite moves” army running around – it’s been taxing my already limited ability to see more than the primary colors.

I’d still appreciate it if you’d switch to blue for me – so I don’t have to hit the “quote” button to find out what color that is.

But I’m sure I can live with teal.

:bump: Beorn?

Figured I'd relieve General_W of his bumping duties for a short while. ;)

Busy week-end. Tonight should be ok.

Battle Log:

Ok – and I'll admit your attacks with your cavalry army has driven me nearly insane…
Well… maybe not "nearly" anymore :lol:

I just could NOT figure out how you were doing this – so I went ahead and threw 80 shields down the toilet.
I'm hoping this has earned me the answer to at least one question…

In view of this:
http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c232/GeneralW/190-ArmyMystery.jpg

How in the world can a 4 move army do what you did last turn, and attack my Barricade, then fall back out of my range?

If KillerCane has changed how armies work in this game, I hope that, if nothing else, my waste of a cavalry unit has earned me the right to know that?

If your army only has 4 moves (like the game is telling me it does) – and you're doing something else profoundly clever that I'm too dense to figure out, so be it.
But if this game is working differently, and the unit stats are displaying wrong – then I think we should know that.

What's the scoop?

Thanks in advance. :hatsoff:

Nothing is wrong with the game, at all. Armies have 4 moves, and while 4 roads count for one move, nothing else changed about the behavior of unit movement. Here the 4th roaded tile move is irrelevant anyways since there is only 2 continuous roaded tiles, so it's got nothing to do with roads.

80 shields is worth a good hint though.

Hint: Think worker turns in PBEM vs in regular civ.

ok - how this works was just explained to me in our spoiler thread.

You don't view getting a double move out of an army, thanks to a C3C PBEM oddity, as exploitative?

I've got to say, I find this very disappointing. :sad:

I may be wrong and it was a long time ago but I thought double moves were agreed to.

Not that I'm aware of. I went back and re-read the start of this thread (since I joined this game late) - and there's no talk of rules at all... that I could find anyway.

I do know that double-moves using the Go-To command are banned in the MTDG ruleset.
(So is breaking into the build que I suppose - but Niklas asked before attempting that... )

Not to mention, I'm just a little floored that someone could seriously propose that moving 8 tiles with a 4 move unit, due to the odd way PBEM is handled, fits within the context of a friendly PBEM game.

But maybe I'm operating under a false definition of "friendly game" :dunno:

We definitely did not discuss that since I had no way it worked until someone explained it in our spoiler thread a while back (this is my first ever multiplayer game). And at that point I noted that I didn't want to use it since it was exploitish. On the other had we didn't discuss anything at all, so I guess you could say that anything goes.

But I have to admit I too have a very hard time seeing how double the intended movement of a unit is not an exploit. And as such, I would propose we disallow it from this point on.

Like I said I can't remember and didn't look through the thread. Since Killercane made the map I'd suggest he makes the call. I'll pm him.

Whatever gets decided - either A) no holds bared, if the game will let you do it, go for it -or- B) we're going to try to keep some sense of the spirit of the game...

I don't suppose you gentlemen would consider pretending that my Cavalry made use of the double-move exploit and isn't really still sitting there out in the open? :mischief:
You know... as a show of sportsmanship? :D

I'd say our commander would tell your cavalry "nuts" and send it back to the other side with the message.

Ok I got Whomp's pm. General W accused me up and down of fouling something up with the map and leading to a decided advantage for the Bears :spank:. So I am glad to see that is not the case but not glad to see that this tactic is being used, albeit cleverly. If I am the arbiter here, I rule against the Bears, and here is why:

1. Using such a tactic for a decided advantage is banned in the MTDG.
2. Using such a tactic is banned at CDZ, where you both contribute.
3. A lot of seasoned pbemers at CFC dislike/ban the tactic, even if there is NOT a decided tactical advantage like there is here.
4. Both B and Whomp have played many more pbems than Niklas and GW, and knew or should have known that they were being shady.

So work out a punishment amongst yourselves if you want this to be some binding arbitration of your dispute :). Or Whomp can ban Beorn, GW, and Niklas forever, and declare himself king of the world.

Ok, killercane has spoken, let's consider that settled then. Definitely no punishment necessary, that would only make a bad situation worse. So let's just move along. :)

Well, you're not getting any quatloos from me :shake:

Well - it seems to me that a "fair" punishment might be the disbanding of the army - figuring that I would certainly have counter-attacked against the army if this exploit hadn't doubled it's movement - and would have lost about the same number of shields in that attack as I have lost over the course of this game to that army.

Now, I realize that asking for that is likely to cause a big blow-up, and like Niklas - I'd really rather keep this game friendly.

But should there be no penalty at all?

I guess I still just remain highly... disappointed (best word I've got for it right now)... that this tactic could be looked at as fair play. I mean, reloading is also allowed by C3C, and we have no explicit rule against that. Are we really down to "there's no rule - so I can do it?" :sad:

I'll accept whatever the Bears decide, and we can just move on.
I guess I've learned my lesson about playing PBEM on CFC without a ruleset in place.

Sorry, victims, but I remember noticing double moves with Jags very early on - whether they were intentionnal or not - and then I figured DM's were allowed. To be honest, I never read the MTDG ruleset and I don't normally use this in PBEM's, but by the first time I had to defend my capital with spears, I had seen a double move and started using it every now and then.

I also remember DM's being used by advancing troops into our territory, back when you went all the way to Whomp's capital.

If end-turn exploits are an issue, then I'd vote for having none of them at all - no big picture screen, no capital zoom for same-turn wonders, no movements that end on the next turn of any shape or form (with the unavoidable exception of worker actions).

Sorry, victims
No problem, 8-move-army man.

I remember noticing double moves with Jags very early on
Of course, I can't speak for Niklas, so I'll leave that to him.

But I would like to address this:

I also remember DM's being used by advancing troops into our territory, back when you went all the way to Whomp's capital.
So your position is basically this: After using Double-Moves against you, I subsequently forgot about it as I repeatedly (and with increasing frustration) asked about your "magic" tricks with the Army? :dubious:

You're either suggesting that I'm seriously dense, or else lying when I said, "how this works was just explained to me in our spoiler thread." [post #1011 in this thread]

For what it's worth – I very rarely even use the go-to command, since I personally find it frustrating - and I can't think of a single time I've used it in advancing into enemy territory, since I didn't know it would move my units an extra time - I just though it locked me into a move on the next turn, which is obviously a tactically bad idea.

Anyway – I don't even know what you're talking about with the "big picture screen" exploit – and I assume the "capital zoom" exploit is referring to breaking into the build que (?) – but I propose we just adopt the current Civ3 MTDG 2 ruleset for this game from now on.
http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=196005

We've already discussed striking rule 2.8 "Build Sequence" – which I'm still ok with. But if you want to leave it banned, I've never used this one either and have no strong feelings about it.

Sorry, victims, but I remember noticing double moves with Jags very early on - whether they were intentionnal or not - and then I figured DM's were allowed. To be honest, I never read the MTDG ruleset and I don't normally use this in PBEM's, but by the first time I had to defend my capital with spears, I had seen a double move and started using it every now and then.
I have never used a double move with any of my Jags, neither intentionally or unintentionally. I know this for a fact since I a) had no idea the exploit existed, and b) never use goto, unless it finishes in one turn. This is a habit from solo games too, as you never know what the situation is like on the turn after, a purely strategic and micro-manager-obsessive habit. I have every single one of my saves from this game still on my computer, so I can back this up with pictures if you want (though only non-spoiler ones of course). If you could tell me a specific turn or event, it would be easier on me to dig them out, but I suspect you haven't saved them like I have.

But really, I find this discussion more disappointing than the use of the exploit, and I truly wish we had never gone here. We should just accept killercane's arbitration and move on. Trying to figure out what fair compensation is will never truly be fair and will only lead to bad blood, as evidenced.

If end-turn exploits are an issue, then I'd vote for having none of them at all - no big picture screen, no capital zoom for same-turn wonders, no movements that end on the next turn of any shape or form (with the unavoidable exception of worker actions).
If you explain what they are, I can say whether I think they should be allowed or not. If the capitol zoom means breaking into the build queue, we already discussed that and all of us found it alright. If you mean something else, please do tell. I have no idea what exploit the big picture screen refers to. And to movements that end on the next turn, I'm with you on banning them.

This game has been quite fun to watch, especially during slow times in the MTDG. I hope you four can resolve this issue to general satisfaction. (No pun intended.) I have a suggestion but I have no idea whether it is a good one or not. Have you four considered just allowing the go to exploit from this point on?

It's possible my frustration has led to an over-reaction on my part.
If I've offended either of you, I apologize.

As I've said previously - I'll accept whatever you Bears decide, and I hope we can just move on with this game.
I still think it's a good idea to agree to some kind of ruleset. Perhaps just the current MTDG one without rule 2.8 as Niklas has suggested.

We's also better clear up the issue of the "big picture screen" ... a quick search of the forums revealed an article by DaveMcW about using the Big-picture screen upon era advancement to buy techs from your rivals and thus ensure you don't get any of those as your free bonus tech. If this is what you're talking about, it's totally irrelevant for our game.... unless you might be interested in selling me some techs when/if you beat us to the Modern age :lol:
So I suspect you're referring to something else? :dunno:

Well Niklas, I was 99% sure, so if you're 100%, then it was a miscount on my part, back then.
General, when I assume (wrongly or not) that people know/figured something already, I hardly think they're dense.

I'd go with the ruleset and enforce 2.8 and 2.10 henceforth, but scratch out 1.1 - it has not been an issue here anyways, but if we're getting a ruleset, I would like to play by it and I can't get to play within 24hrs every single time these days. Every exploit I mentioned above are covered in 2.8, explicitly or in spirit, so they're out.

Alright, I guess that's the simplest way. Obviously several points there are not applicable to our game (e.g. refugees), and I agree that that should include 1.1. We've done well so far, no need to make any rules there.

Works for me. Game on.

If Beorn doesn't pick up tonight I'll run with it. Can you forward the save just in case.

Thanks Whomp :hatsoff:

I sent it to your bawhomp e-mail address.

Yes, I think that would be best. If you can take it these days, I don't have much time to think about this game properly - which is why I asked for a sub a while back. I'll have a lot more time mid-december, which is an awful timing for this game, but that's life. I'd love to get to put up that fight, it's just getting interesting again now, but it would mean bad delays and that sucks for all of you.

If you can send it to both adresses, Niklas, I'll try to pick it up whenever I can (and warn Whomp when I do so we don't double up), but otherwise this is the pace we'd have to sadly expect.

I will play the save but will need to address the incursion tomorrow.

I'd volunteer to help out, but I've been all over the spoilers :(

I'm just amazed that this game is in the mid IA, what with 4 AA powerhouses like you guys had.

I guess that shows how well balanced some pairings of traits and units can be. :hmm:

PS Spam? What spam? :P

Yep. We're all builders at heart. I think Scoutsout put it best on our builder tendencies.


I like to build cities, so that I may build an empire...
I like to build barracks, so I can build veteran units.
I like to build roads, to connect my trade network, make some gold, and move some units.
I like to build markets, for happiness, gold, and unit support.
I like to build libraries, so I can learn to build better units.
I like to build MORE cities, for more unit support
I like to build railroads, so I can move my units really fast.
I like to build factories, so I can build units faster
I like to build things that throw rocks and drop bombs, so I can ... kill other civs' units!
I like to build universities and banks... (see "libraries" and "markets")
I like to build airfields, so I can move units around really, REALLY fast.

17 slaves and 12 artillery pieces captured. The slaves were freed and are likely roaming the countryside.

3 arty pieces miss but 2 reduce the barricade to a fortress and road.

Cannons fire on Sumerian infantry incursion.

There were seven misses but they hit a 5/5 infantry to 4/5 and 6 other infantry hits reduce them from 4/4 to 3/4.

Follow with a artillery shelling and destroy the road to the fortress.

Two captured artillery pieces destroy a road near Kraken and the other hits a unidentified unit. The rest are somewhere in the rubble.

Cannons fire once again.
We miss three times but 3 more 4/4 infantry are reduced to 3/4

Is now about the time I'm supposed to loot the treasury and "retire" to some exotic non-extradition island in a tropical climate? :mischief:

Well we'll see. You guys have been taking it to me so hopefully this will help a little. Keep up the good play gentelmen. :D

Oh and come December 15th Cubsfan will be wearing a White Sox avatar after losing a bet to me. :D

Due to... unforseen circumstances in a certain other game sharing a forum with this one, I won't be playing tonight... my attention lies elsewhere. :run:

:nono: select such comparisons with care, please.

Come now Calis - it's all in good fun.

However, I recognize this is probably a bit more touchy in Germany - so if I caused any offense, I apologize.

Calis, it should be seen as a reference to the propaganda material in the RoundTable. (Though it may not have been fully appropriate... :undecide:)

How's this for unnecessarily alarmist: I can't believe you called Calis a Nazi! You un PC twits! :p What did you expect from Marsden, nice?



I'm pretty sure Calis got the joke just fine.

He was just pointing out your flawed analogy. Saber will be the liberators of your people! First we will liberate them of their land and then their freedom, but I've got a special pair of bracelets being made for each and every one of them that survives at absolutely no charge! :mwaha:


Edit: D'oh! Now I'm feeling apologetic. Don't take it personally guys, I'm only joking, which should be obvious, but just in case I'm telling you directly.


BTW, Good hit Spare Tire Whomp!

Come now Calis - it's all in good fun.

GPS to Niklas and just to remind you I won't be back till Sunday. I doubt I'll have time to play these saves till then but will try to move the MTDG save.

No problem, Whomp.
MTDG save is more important!

Thanks for the reminder :salute:

My apologies for holding the save for so long. There are simply so many other games calling for my attention right now, and I don't think I'll be able to play tonight either since The Council has the turn. I hope to play tomorrow, sorry. :blush:

No issues. I just got back in town.

Gah, time is the proverbial euphemism. I'll really try tonight but I can't promise anything. :sad:

Hi.
This is my first time posting in Civ Fanatics, which I only discovered a couple of weeks ago.
I've really enjoyed reading about your death match game, I've now read all of both sides Spoiler threads and it seems to me there is something significant that both sides are overlooking.
However I am reluctant to say what it is as it could drastically alter the balance (stalemate) of the game if one side figures it out and the other does not.
Is there a thread where lurkers could discuss the game without players from either side being able to observe?

Hey Madmax51 :wavey: Welcome to CivFanatics!

If I said I'd be your bestfriend, would you just tell me and not the other team what your uber-strategy is? :mischief:

Ummm, no. :mischief:
It really is very simple. If you think hard you should be able to figure it out.
I will give one clue: It would have worked best if done BEFORE the enemy has railroads, but can still work with railroads.
And it can only really work if you can surprise the enemy.
Um, two clues, I have given you two clues.
Oh, and it has a lot to do with the shape of your map.
Arrgh, three clues, I will only give you three clues, no more.

I'll come in again.

If you have read both spoiler threads, then you really shouldn't post anything relevant to the game in either :nono:.

And that is why I'm posting here instead of in either spoiler.
I do not wish to cause any problems, and if what I have done is improper I deeply apologize.
This is why I was asking if there is a "Lurker only" thread.

1. Welcome!

2. No, there really isn't; but PM me, I'd be interested. I'm sure there will be a post-mortem discussion of the game when it's over though.

3. I'd probably even delete your hints, just to be on the safe side.

Deleting my hints might be unfair now, since General_W has almost certainly already read them. However I'm willing to do so if that is apropriate.

Yeah - I read them - but I'm a bit dense, I'm afraid :D

see: General_W not being able to figgure out how the Whomp/Beorn were able to attack and retreat in the South Pass without me being able to see it. :lol:

If you're talking about cross-ocean naval invasions, we've been there and done that already. It ended up badly for the invaders.

Don't feel bad General_W, I don't get it either. ;)

But a lurker-only thread is an interesting idea. Anyone should feel free to start one, obviously we the players won't read it. But also anyone who does read it should refrain from posting in our team spoiler threads, obviously.

I like the idea. You should start one Madmax.

No btw you shouldn't post in either of the threads if you've read both.
