- trade Chemistry for Banking & gold & map & War with Ramesses!!
- Bibracte work a village instead of Oasis
- RFBF, change its name to RFBF and whip the LB

In other news, Saladin finished the Hindu shrine. :D

So, we have 1 more option regarding which shrine we could conquer.
 
Google tells me it is 4:45 am in New Jersey SH, are you just up, or about to go to bed?

..and its 1.45 am in San Fran!!
 
Sorry - I missed everything after my last post, and the save has been uploaded. I missed the War with Ramesses option. :(

We have captured Heliopolis and Memphis and obtained Thebes for peace with Brennus. He would not give us the island city.

Google tells me it is 4:45 am in New Jersey SH, are you just up, or about to go to bed?

Why would I have ever doubted you? Oh, right... It wasn't you who I was doubting. :p

:D OK - I think I am ready to hand off to SH now.
 
Good night Trys,
Good morning SH.

I'm going to gaze at the save and the graphs now..... I can taste victory :trophy:

Very nice work :goodjob:
GA has lots of uses. Golden Age for civic swap or to speed cult city.

Are you handing off at this point?
if so, neil - feel free to start on a PPP. I will take a look at or start one tonight (us time).

EDIT: cross-post at 5am - how sad.
 
Roger, wilco :salute:
 
I can tidy things up if required, but I don't think I should play past the end of this turn. She is all yours SH.

Too much adrenaline to go to bed. Here are some screenshots:

Wheeling and dealing:

We win!

We aren't very nice people:

Wanna make a deal?


Thanks! Time to die.


Hey Brennus, do you want to live 10 more turns?

I thought so. Don't worry, we'll get Tolosa from you eventually.


New cities:

Spoiler :


Another shrine is ours:




Brennus did build a monastery for us:


I will post more screenshots of the demograhics, etc., tomorrow.

Good night all.
 
EDIT: cross-post at 5am - how sad.

It may be 5 am to you, but here it is only 2:30! (I am really going to pay for this tomorrow, but it was worth it. :))
 
Love the comments :lol:

edit: and that's the spirit.... victory at all costs.
 
Why are you still up Trys???
 
Saw your score curve and had to see what was going on. :scan:

Its impossible to keep up with teams like this where you just play in shifts.

The sun never sets on the U'nusual S'uspects.:lol:

Couldn't sleep. And I'm amazingly functional this morning, actually. :)

This is looking really, really good. I'm at school now, so can't look at the save, but I'll have a gander tonight hopefully.

:goodjob: To Neil and Trystero for a great last 10 turns.

Edit: Also, given how much I hate on the RNG, I think we should give it a shout-out:

I just learned something last night, something really, really, annoying.
Spoiler :


wait for it

Spoiler :
SM obsoletes the AP hammers from monasteries



Moving on from that disappointment, we have enough gold left for 7-8 turns at 100% research.

We will be finished:
Biology in 4 turns,
Lib being finished the next turn just from the overflow.
Economics in 2 turns.
Then ?

By this time, we should be finishing Banks in our big commerce cities in preparation of moving off 100% research.

We obviously would like to get Sushi incorporated asap, but we also don't want to research things that the AI will do. I'm tempted to leave Nationalism and wait for Hammy to trade it to us.

We could do Replaceable Parts->Steam Power instead.

Hammy is willing to DoW Brennus, so in another 10 turns (it will take 8 just for the galleons to sail around to him) we can DoW Brennus and bribe Hammy in.

We will receive an extra +1 shared civic bonus by then, bringing us to +9. I will have to go digging through the save, but we are due another Open Borders +1 at some stage as well.
