First off, welcome AVN! I'm sure you'll make a great addition to Team Peanut. Second, I'm sorry that I may not be able to play with you. Depending on when the next game gets started, I may or may not be able to join. School right now is eating up alot (read: all) of my time. After Dec 15, I...

Nice Job, Queen M! Japan fell quickly before your mighty whip of Dooooommmm!:goodjob: (btw, I nearly cross-posted with you, but was looking down along the previous posts and thought "Hmmm... this one looks new.... omgshweet!") Also, good turn set, CS! As for mobilization, don't sweat it...

I prefer to think of it as relying on our star player during the seconds before the buzzer. :)

The reason for not razing the cities was that I figured we needed to maintain our reputation. Can we raze them? If so, Hakodat should definitely go. Definitely agree with using cavs and infantry on EV island. Just wasn't sure if we had enough to time to do it. Let's see: This turn: Found...

Save: http://gotm.civfanatics.net/saves/sgotm8/Peanut_SG008_AD1425_01.SAV Well is a relative term, but accurate for here. Things aren't going especially badly, but neither are they what I hoped. I'm calling an end to my turnset, even though I'm part way through my fifth turn. Short...

Right. Well forget that, then. Bombers have lethal bombard for sea units only. In that case, let's see how my war against Japan goes. We can't airlift artillery apparently (since Peanut tried to airlift the cannons and it didn't work), so if we need artillery, bombers would be the place to...

Wow, glad I waited. Thanks, CS! As for airplanes, I've never had particular success with fighters, though bombers could be useful for artillery. I remember, too, that bombers have lethal bombard in this game, which could be nice, but we need to eliminate the cities entirely, so some land...

Good idea and one I hadn't thought of. Any objections to that? I'm assuming mobilization lets you finish out any non-military works that are currently in progress. Also, I probably won't play until Sunday, for two reasons. 1) I want to give folks a chance to weigh in on what I talked about...

I'll probably play later tonight. In the meantime, a couple questions: 1) I'm assuming we no longer do the jungle city gifting to begin our wars. Or should I do that before declaring on Japan? 2) I'm going to push the Japanese off of our co-held islands, but leave the Greek and English...

Thanks for the quick play, Queen M! I'm taking a look at the save now. To confirm, the plan is to: 1) start our war against Japan to kick them off the islands we're on. 2) Make enough infantry to support our helo landings 3) Once we have motorized transport, start making tanks 4) Have...

Sounds perfect, Queen M. And I'd like to add my congrats to CS on the GOTM as well. I always keep meaning to play one of those, but playing with you guys is far more important. :)

I'm around. I may need to take a partial turn, depending on time difficulties. Also, my best chance to play will be this weekend, if Queen M's schedule will allow her to play sooner rather than later. Also, just to clarify, we're building settlers just to aid the use of helicopters, right...

Goods sets Queen M and Peanut! Sorry I haven't been checking in much lately because school has been busy, but I've been following with interest. Issue 1: The trade I'm generally against trading either electricity or flight. Electricity - As CS said, the AI will beeline for Replacable...

The Save: http://gotm.civfanatics.net/saves/sgotm8/Peanut_SG008_AD1150_01.SAV The Summary: We're at war with the Vikings, but no sign of berserkers yet. Japan continues to grow, pushing Rome off their island Lots of Workers decide the country life isn't for them and go back to the city to...

Okay, regarding Frontier. It's really annoying me. Kansas City, Hangchow, and San Diego are all squeezed for tiles, despite the fact that these are going to be big producing cities of ours. Frontier is using up tiles that could be redistributed to give all of our Ring 4 cities more breathing...
