I'll get it in 3.5hours (lunch). If Banzai or Sultan object, post before that. Otherwise, I'll be sure to save the game the turn before the win so everyone can watch the movie/add to their hall of fame. I think this is going to be a decent score!?!?!

You could milk it until 2049ad if you really want to boost your score - I'd rather not.

 

[ControlFreak]

I'd rather not either.

 

[Banzai]

Yeah! I want this game in my highscore.. Go for it CF!

 

[Stapel]

As it will only last three more turns, we all can get it simultaniously. Maybe we should make it a competition and see who gets the top score WITHIN 3 turns.

I think sultan deserves it. Maybe he can find time to play the last few moments?

Stapel throws down the gauntlet. CF picks it up. I should finish in a couple hours. Good luck to all, including Sultan.

BTW, col set the precedent of not using the Big Picture to switch builds on the last turn so the Lounge should finish the turn AFTER we get Laser.

Thats just my policy - I certainly dont want to constrain anyone else in this way.

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

The problem is I don't have the game with me. When I get home, I will certainly grab that last save and play the final three turns on my computer to get the memory of it in my hall of fame, as I hope the rest of you will, but if you guys want a sense of closure, feel free CF or whoever to grab it and finish the game here to tell us all the score we've (you guys mostly, really, with all my bans and vacations) built up.

 

[ControlFreak]

Sultan - thanks for getting this game going. I hope you got out of it as much as I did. I will grab and be the "official" finisher since its my turn, but when you grab it join the competition and post your results here too.

col - I mentioned your precedent because if Stapel and I are going to compete for the higher score in three turns, I want us to end on the same turn. Are you joining Stapel's challenge?

 

[col]

Hehe - three turns of milking. Ok count me in.

Thanks Sultan. This has been my first SG and I've really enjoyed it. I hope I wasnt too 'bossy' at certain stages. Anytime you want another guys, drop me a Pm - if my duties elsewhere allow.

 

[Banzai]

We all play the last three turns and see who got the highest score? Fine!
I did not fire a single shot in this game... poor poor French

Banzai!!

 

[ControlFreak]

Unfortunately, I didn't have as much time over lunch as I thought. I bagged the milking attempt in favor of posting the win. I will try finish my 3 turn milk competition game tonight.

The save: is the turn before the party lounge. I think you just have to hit enter until the movie. That was fun and cool!

This is probably a more appropirate ending to our peaceful game than the decimation of France that will likely exist in our competition games.

Thanks to everyone. I had a blast playing this one, and learned quite a bit too.


Final score was something like 6049 and Lincoln was "Magnificent"

 

[Banzai]

We won We won!!

Nice score CF! Mine was only a bit higher: 6071
And yes.. the French were decimated. The Koreans are a bit smaller too
Never underestimate the power of 150 Modern Armors, ICMBs and combat workers!

This is how my world looks like:

My score:

My save

And for the record: I got 6 or 7 great leaders!

Guys, I had a lot of fun and maybe we can play another game in the future!

Banzai!

 

[ControlFreak]

Holy Moley Banzai! Where did France go?!?!?!?!?!

I guess you can do a lot in 3 turns with rails, MA and industrious workers. Too bad the score gets averaged over the whole game.

I had spent a little time joining workers to our new Arab cities and rushing markets/cathedrals but that was only for a few turns. I'm surprised that taking all that territory didn't give you a much higher score.

Great job everyone. I look forward to playing/lurking with you all again.

 

[Banzai]

France is now a part of the USA! All their cities!
When I started the game I switched all cities to modern armor and rushed them all. Then I declared war on france and use my existing units in the attack. I did not upgrade my tanks as that would waste a turn.
The next turn I got a lot of modern armors! I started rushing workers, switch to MA and rushed the armors until I ran out of gold. It's a lot cheaper if you rush a worker first you know..
When the French were dead I nuked Seoul among other large Korean cities...
The Koreans were a lot stronger with their mech infs and radar towers!
The Arabs were very lucky! My modern armor was destroyed with only a 1 hitpoint defender left.

 

[col]

hehe - nice finish guys. Maybe we need something more demanding next time

Me?

I went to the pub and sank a few beers instead

I'm going to watch the volleyball match between The Netherlands and Cuba today. After the match we are going to celebrate our victory with a couple of beers!
