Dear Team CBR,

Hi I hope your game is progressing as you had hoped. I am the new Foreign Minister for CFC. We have been thinking about this idea for some time and we are curious if you would like to start a 3 team tech alliance. In this alliance we would share all techs we currently have and we would co-ordinate in research directions to further all of our civs advancement. We would like to form a three way tech alliance with BAT and CBR being the other members. If you look at the game, you will see that the 3 of us are being left behind technology wise. I have sent a similar email to the other team and will let you know their decision. This technology alliance is for technology exchange only, we can discuss military protection and joint military ventures at a later time. We are not currently interested in military ventures at this time since we are currently involved with one at this moment. Please contact me via this email address so we can discuss this further.

Robboo Foreign Minister of CFC and Team Thunderfall
 
CBR emails are quite weird, from what i can tell they don't actually have a team e-mail (not surprising as their team only lists 3 members) but the CBR e-mail we have is sent to the user 'demarchi', we also have the e-mail to galahadba (ange....). It might be worth sending to both as galahad seems a lot more able at diplomacy etc.

This is of course when he recovered etc :)
 
Sent to Angelo Cossa as well.
 
and the reply:

Hi, I'm currently at work now, but i can say in advance that such a deal will be very well received by CBR team, we i get home (at 20:00 in Brasilian time) i will post it to be voted by my team, and sorry for my ausence, as i had an acident with motorcicle and some other things happenning at the same time, i will pass to my team the proposal of the Galley too.

Best Regards
Galahad of Teotihuacan
 
OK good start. now we wait...
 
uhhh...I didnt know they accept the tech alliance...if they did then send them everything we have for everything they have.
 
Have we told them we are planning to offer peace to GCA?
 
I sent an email last turn asking what they thought about the war and whether we should open up communications about peace with GCA, no word back.
 
The alliance with CBR is about the only thing we have going for us so lets try and keep that intact. Besides there is no point in us being misserable by ourselves. So I sent this (to both of them) and will follow up after their next turn.

Greetings CBR,

How is the war going for you? Our offensives have failed. We have been unable to make any headway against GCA. Unless you have something big planned we think it is time to try a different approach. We want to try and end the war. We want to do so together because I’m sure we can get better terms and because we want to keep our close cooperation with your team.

Please let us know if you agree or not with this course of action because either way we have much work to do. I’d also like to chat with any of you if possible.

Talk to you soon,
1889 of CFC
edandjane@GCI.net for email and MSN

If anyone can email or PM their chat info to me that would be helpful.
 
angelocossa at hotmail dot com iirc. he hasnt been online in awhile though.

The best bet is adding the cbr e-mail we have and trying to get demarchi online but thats a rarity also.

Also DeMarchi is on-line right now, kind of. His status has been set as "out to lunch" for about 2 hours now.
 
Finally made contact just before I was about to shut down.

Ok...

Now for the hard part.
 
Good to see you were able to find the right guy to chat to :D
 
Somewhat pointless chat with Antonio. They are also have some difficulty with BAT (Imagine that) but I don't understand just what he was trying to say. Can anyone figure out what the problem is?

(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Do you heve news?
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:

1889 says:
(just looking over Brazilian history in my encyclopedia)
1889 says:
No news on the game though.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Ok...
1889 says:
I suspect GCA will want to fight it out and enjoy victory a bit.
1889 says:
probably no hope for peace until our troops can cause some seroius problems.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
We are making ships...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
galleys
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
And troops...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
But they have more techs
1889 says:
That sounds good. They really shouldn't be able to defeat us both.
1889 says:
Also we just got Philosophy (and taoism)
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
i have a gaaley in their coast...
1889 says:
Hopefully we can make some trades and pick up a few more techs
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
turns???
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Yes...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
We change techs wit you...
1889 says:
Yes, well get it to you.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
how turns to philo???
1889 says:
I think we'll send it to you next turn.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
ok, so i sed more one tech for you to...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
send
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
one or two...
1889 says:
Well, all of them right?
1889 says:
I think we are supposed to share all our techs as soon as we get them.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Yes...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
I change 2...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
And have more 2...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
But if i change feudalism with BAT, i have a limitation about 30 turns...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Ok?
1889 says:
What do you mean? You don't want to give feudalism to BAT?
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
No...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
They get the tech for us, and have conditions to do...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
I can´t to change feud before 30 turns, understand?
1889 says:
I don't understand what conditions they have, but it sounds like something between you and BAT.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
yes...
1889 says:
I have a technical question for you.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
they give us a tech (feudalism) for 2 techs with minus valor...]
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Say...
1889 says:
The last save was a .rar file.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Yes...
1889 says:
I don't have the software to unzip it.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Because i was in another computer
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Excuse...
1889 says:
could you tell me how to open it or could you possably send an unzipped save?
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
And i have only rar in this machine!
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Certainly!
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:

1889 says:
will do
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
It´s good to zip, rar and others
1889 says:
Ok thanks, I'm checking the save now.
1889 says:
GWT gave us Math and we used a scientist to get Philosophy.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Ok...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
It´s good!
1889 says:
Hopefully I can trade it to EXG for Civil Service
1889 says:
good talking to you Antonio, but the kids are waking up so I gotta go.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Ok...
1889 says:
Happy Independence Day.
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
Thanks for all
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
O...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
ok
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
I don´t know how to say...
(ap)(co) De Marchi (co) (ap). says:
i´ll go to march in my group
 
They're trading with BAT for feud, we should probably stop them as we have no such conditions on our end in regards to the trade.

Is that the part you didn't understand? he's not a native speaker obviously but when you get used to it it gets easier.....ish.
 
I thought we had set up a three way trade alliance CFC-BAT-CBR. All techs given freely within the alliance.

EDIT: My mistake, BAT never accepted the tech alliance.
 
Sent this just now:
Hello Angelo and Demarchi,

I just realized that BAT has already agreed to trade Feudalism to us for Machenery. That will be in 12 turns but we may just try and get it right away by offering them Philosophy instead. In any caes when we get it we’ll be passing it along to you so no need to trade anything to BAT for it.

See you around,
1889 and Team CFC
