chat with BCLG (Simon) and Me (Skieën was geweldig)
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
hey
Simon zegt:
hey
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
about the MTDG, we expect to have CS in about two turns, so we could trade it to you too
Simon zegt:
your innovia right?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
yep
Simon zegt:
ah k cool, in exchange for what?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Well, CS is quite expensive, so a suggestion made in our team forums was CS for Iron Working and another tech in the near future to make it about even
Simon zegt:
ok i'll just check what we're working on
Simon zegt:
IW and monarchy?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
I'll report it to the team forum
I can't go making deals on my own here
Simon zegt:
yup no worries
Simon zegt:
do you have monotheism?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
I don't think we've got it yet
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
no we don't
Simon zegt:
ok, well IW, mono and monarchy
Simon zegt:
that equals about 620 beakers
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
That's 620 beakers tota
Simon zegt:
and CS is 800
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
did the calculations myself too
Simon zegt:
lol nice one
Simon zegt:
well i think you owe us some beakers from the last tech swap
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
*checking what other trades we had*
Simon zegt:
do you have med/poly?
Simon zegt:
that big one for CoL/MC etc
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
this was it right?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
"I have sent Alpha for Maths
then next turn Priest for MC
then CoL."
Simon zegt:
yep
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
alpha(300)+priesthood(60)+CoL(350)=710
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Math (250)+MC(450)=700
Simon zegt:
hmmm was there another tech?
Simon zegt:
calendar?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
I don't think we've got calendar already, I believe we're still getting culture from obelisks. I could be wrong though, haven't checked the save in a while, but I didn't see it mentioned anywhere
Simon zegt:
ok well we do have calender also
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
that one is 350
Simon zegt:
yup
Simon zegt:
so we could trade that to you, however then you would owe us 200 odd beakers (i think)
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
yeah, and we'd miss out on some culture, so we've got to check that too
Simon zegt:
well i dont think we'll have calendar for a few turns
Simon zegt:
(nor monarchy+ mono for that matter)
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Well, I guess we've both got to report back to our team forums, so let's do that first, I think we've got most possibilities covered now, and then we'll email you with our offer in a few days
Simon zegt:
k doke sure thing
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
btw if you include Calendar, you could also exclude mono? that would make the difference 80 (right?)
Simon zegt:
not really because mono is the pre req for monarchy
Simon zegt:
unless you have priesthood?
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
yes we have, we've traded it to you and we needed it for CoL
Simon zegt:
ah right k
Simon zegt:
well ill pass that one around too
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
btw you've met piffle right?
Simon zegt:
yup
Simon zegt:
once you get IW, you'll see something v interesting on the map btw
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Do you know if they're in an alliance with Epsilon or something like that
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
iron??
Simon zegt:
its do with that yes
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
we're they ahead of you (us )
Simon zegt:
its hard to say, epsilon obviously are in the lead and piffle were pretty much proposing a three way
Simon zegt:
between you us and them vs epsilon
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Did Sirian place it in an interesting position
Simon zegt:
lol- im not gonna give away what it is, you have to get the tech off us first
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Everyone versus Epsilon? Who knows, could be our only chance
Simon zegt:
well we didnt talk so much about loco
Simon zegt:
i dont know if its just us but they seem hard to work with
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
We'd have to meet them first though, but we're sending a warrior to the north east (i suppose that's were you are), can we meet them that way?
Simon zegt:
im not sure how we met tbh, i was away when it happened
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
They aren't responding to us most of the time either
Simon zegt:
but i think it was by boat
Simon zegt:
and yes we're north east of you
Simon zegt:
not very north though
Simon zegt:
but quite a bit east
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
have you seen our warrior coming NE?
Simon zegt:
no
Simon zegt:
or at least not that i know of
Simon zegt:
recently we've had a bit of barb trouble
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
good luck with that, at least it'll give your troops some experience
Simon zegt:
yeah, handy in that way
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
it's now near some ivory
Simon zegt:
hmm from memory we have ivory nowhere near us
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
well, we aren't that far away from home yet , it took you quite a while to discover us too
Skiën was geweldig zegt:
Mapmakers do seem to love landbridges by the way
