Scrubkai, your setup was marvelous. The only thing I remember that could be considered "wrong" might be building military units in cities before constructing barracks. I also had to chase down all our workers who were on automation to get them to build railroads to improve our flow of...

If I had to choose a theme for this round of turns it would be "Armies lost, a War stolen." We lost an Army, Gilgamesh lost two. And unexpectedly, the war was stolen from us when Gilgamesh capitulated to the Dutch. I started off (after a bit of micromanaging) deciding who our next target...

I'm still playing. As predicted, Gilgamesh was our next target but intercontinental war takes ages to play - I'm not sure it's me or my computer ;). Look for a report this evening.

Sorry, this weekend went completely out of my control. I'm going to ask for a skip now because I won't be able to play before tomorrow evening.

I have the save and I'm playing now.

Sorry folks, I'm away from my computer and won't be able to play for at least 48 hours. If someone wants to swap, please feel free to grab the save.

Great job establishing the beachhead, scrubkai! Looks like I'm up but I won't be able to play until late on Sunday. If someone wants to swap, please feel free to sieze the opportunity.

Sansman, please feel free to take the on-deck circle.

Yes, as Quotey points out, I have it installed in CustomAssets and not as a mod. I forgot to turn on the log but I do like the improved interfaces that BUG provides.

No need for stress, dazedroyalty. Spending time with family is a Good Thing. Here's my guess at the roster: Ralph (just played) Dazedroyalty (skip until the weekend) Srubkai (up now) Frankcor Liquidated (dropped)

I agree on the settler. I just don't want to fall so low on the power chart that we start looking like a low hanging fruit to the AI.

I switched the Granary in Notingham to a Lighthouse, thinking it's better to have some food before trying to store some food. London grew to size 5 after one turn so I whipped the Lighthouse and began work on the Great Lighthouse. It took four more turns working two seafoods to get London...

Good work JOE and Sansman. This a got-it. I will play in around 24 hours.. Look for a report late Friday, or early Saturday. I appreciate the discussion on Espionage. I've used it with some success but based on what you've written, I am under-utilizing it.

LOL, RALPH! You kick Hammy off the continent, Vassalize him and you call it a builder set? YAY, new toys! Your turns and report were a class act. I do have a question. I looked all through the manuals for Civ IV, Warlords and BtS, Civilpedia and these forums, and I cannot find a single...

No wonder I did so well!
