1400 AD – Turn 10 – Repeat of turn 9

You could pretty much sum up this turnset in three sentences:

1. I've been working on the railroad
2. Gardening is your friend
3. Give the people the vote and they'll work faster and research more

Not much else to say, we'll have Motorized Transport in soon, then flight and radio before entering the Modern Era. I think ecology is the freebie. The next player should probably start a palace going as a UN pre-build. I concentrated on improving the new world and adding happy faces & production to the home island. We might consider wiping out everyone on the New World except for that one small island to allow us to decomission most of our military (it is costing about 100gpt). It would also be a nice excercise in managing the domination limit. The one negative about my turnset, it that future players will be forced to play "whack a mole" with the upcoming pollution the factories and larger populations will be spawing.
 
OK it's been 4 days, who wants to play this one next?
 
Tron, Mistfit or KayEss - anyone have time to grab it over the weekend?

It is an open roster so anyone can play, just post a "got it".
 
I'm not sure I'm going to be around tomorrow of not. If I am, I'll take it. I'll know later today.
 
Sorry, I wasn't able to do anything with this yesterday. I can go ahead and take it. Hopefully I 'll have my turns posted by Tuesday night.

Here's my Got It.
 
Cool..... I'm over 30 posts (finally) :goodjob: Now I can have a "little car thing avatar". I'll have to work on that this week too.

I did start irrigating over mines around some of our unproductive cities in old Zulu lands.

Krasnoyarsk Harbor -> Aqueduct

Pass off report.
I've never built so many cathedrals ever!

There just isn't anything to build right now. I have a Palace pre-build in Oil Springs due in 10. The next player needs to try to time that with Fission so we can pick up the UN right away. Be careful not to let it build, I really don't want our capital there.

There are two transports of troops about 4 tiles West of Gayagaahe. I was going to drop them in the former Russian lands and pick-up workers.

There is a stack of workers outside of Tblisi, many of which can be taken back to the mainland.

There are two transports with workers headed for the mainland. One is just North of Novgorod and the other is just off the coast of Gayagaahe. They are desperately needed for pollution control.

It's probably time to trade with our neighbors again. I didn't really see a good time.
 
Been awhile since I've had a shot at this one. So I'll take it and spin off ten.

Nice turns, tron. Looks like thoughtful play. Especially the handling of the corrupt towns.

I think I will try and set us up for the last push to Neardom for the finish run.
 
:aargh:

Been over a week and I still can't find the Civ3 1.29 CD, so "spinning off ten" ain't in the cards. Sorry guys, I was looking forward to :hammer:
 
I'll take Bede's turn unless we have a brave lurker who wants to give it a go. I can't play until tomorrow though.
 
I had an unplanned visit to my grandparents this past weekend so I could worke on her computer, so I did not play over the weekend. But I got 3 turns completed tonight. I'll have more tomorrow.
 
That sounds great. Who's going after gator? Are there any lurkers here who want to take a spin?
 
Actually I'm working on something that will let everyone play next. It probably won't be ready until the weekend though.
 
As evident by my not posting, I'm running into a little problem with my exercise. I need the help of someone familiar with editting the save file. Please pm me if you would like to help.

Thanks
 
I didnt want to post before I went threw it all!!! (Well I'm barely half way in, but I had to de-lurk) This thread is AWESOME!!!!!

It's a real soap with great adivice ... Babies where born, friend where mades, people promotes, even someone's equip their appartment with a proffessor stuffs...(stealing blenders?!!? sorry for reminding u) + of course entire civilizations thumbling down into history!!!! that's great!!!!

B4 I was a self made Regent player with Domination victories and conquest... you guess it I was a Warmonger in the making.... I'd trouble though controlling my NEEDS for Millitary mights (dont know if its a correct word but hell I'm french ;) )

Anyway Lots of the war techniques I've seen yet in this thread I already knew them... like Skirmmish the Immortals, using geography to an advantage (which is a MUST DO if you want to be warmonger) and even corridor of death!!!! @It happen to me (undelibelecsasd well... didnt plan for it) in a beautifull continent conquest against angry irishman being slaughter in a edge of the world where they where trapped... while their main land was barelly protected... beautifull setting... being there would have been a real good braveheart sequence, member being pulled off, bodies lying everywhere *PLUS I had Viking and Beserkers at that point... every Warmonger wet dream(slaughtering people with freaking AXE)* ... anyway went on with the largest continent in an archipel map and dominating all oceans, seas and even river!!!! my greatest victory yet!!! the one I still dream about!!! :)

Now I learn a lot about City placement... Worker not set on AUTO, A lot about not building early Wonders... well wasnt a HUGE fan of it... but sometime lost some shield on it... Now I aim Sun Tzu, Leonard and Smith.... not always but... if you plan on having a HUGE army to kick ass... its usefull....

anyway a THOUSAND time THANK YOU for existing being there and doing this!!!! I'm now starting monarch epic solo game (MY computer not connected to the net yet!) and have a HUGE early advantage.... I've blowed up already my biggest treat and playing in a Macavelian way with my others enemies faith!!!! I guess I'll have to move up again!!! (Things that looked IMPOSSIBLE b4 I logged here)

Another time Thank you (a thousand plus 1)
