Apocalypto

[Cam_H]

Nocho,

Thanks for the turnset and the summary - unfortunately I can't access the game a.t.m., but I'm really pleased that we got The Internet. I look forward to downloading it tonight.

Nice to have a spare Great Person 'up our sleeve' now nonetheless.

Isabella going WHEOOHRN could well make things a bit lively if she does DoW us.

Not sure the roster needs re-stating, but anyway;

Cam
nocho
Sengir << Up
Norvin << On Deck
lymond

SB switched back to a religion?! Wow..

 

[vranasm]

ha! I told you going coal plants is better :-D, but didn't thought you will actually lose the race ;-)

genetics is always great help after industrialization phase.

interesting list of techs you got, especially that advanced flight should be great help against future invasions

 

[Cam_H]

OK - got the save - good stuff.

I know that I favour infrastructure more than others, but I think that there's still some opportunity to build a few Laboratories in order to hit an earlier end date in our biggest cities; Mutal, Xukpi, Calkmul, and Manchu Picchu arguably would benefit. (Haven't done the maths, but I assume that there's a net benefit).

If we get another Great Engineer out of Lakama (37% chance) ... hold for Space Elevator (with current Great Engineer) when The Internet gives us Robotics? Or should we merge them into Calakmul for faster spaceship parts out of this city?

vran' raises a good point on Advanced Flight - value in producing a few Jets to undertake recon' to our west? I note the stack of Battleships in Hurrian vs. eastern invasion.

In the save I have, Sitting Bull is still in Hinduism.

 

[Sengir]

Got it, will look at the save later today

 

[lymond]

Still baffled that SB switched back to a religion.

Agree on the Labs. We can rush buy them in the top 5 or 6 production cities. Check advisor.

Let's throw the Visibility promo on a couple of ships. We need a ship out in the water in the West as well. Iz hit us from the West last time.

Cahokie and Chaco need a couple more units or more each to prevent revolts again. We might want to rush buy Broadcast Towers in these cities to boost culture. Upgrading Rifles to Infantry in these cities will lower revolt risk as well.

 

[Sengir]

Plan: get some labs up;
Tech Composites, FiberOptics, Fusion
Start building space parts

Build some more units (planes would be nice for recon).
Keep an eye on Izzy
Kick SB out of Hinduism, keep our cities safe from him.

 

[nocho]

Sounds good.

Note I got SB into FR this very turn, guess after IBT he gets out of hindu. EDIT: or maybe when he comes out of anarchy.

 

[lymond]

IBT? International Brotherhood of Teamsters? International Bolshevik Tendency? Institute for Business Technology?

hmmm...Religion/non-religion switch should be immediate, I think.

 

[Cam_H]

The plan sounds fine by me, Sengir.

 

[Sengir]

Got refrigeration from the Internet
Got a GA
Got the Fusion GE (so settled the other one in Machu Picchu)
We're Secretary General
We got hit by Global Warming
Voted for NoNukes (count should come in next turn)
Build 1 Life Support, Stasis Chamber, Docking Bay, Casing and 4 Thrusters
In progress: 4 Casings, 1 Thruster, Cockpit and Engine. All should be done in 6 turns.

Izzy declared on Lizzy, captured Oxford, Coventry.
Izzy build Space Elevator


Also: Who put a worker on automate? It killed my Micro. Now I had to settle the GE in Mutal to get the Cockpit line up with the Engine

 

[nocho]

I plead guilty to some worker automation, though with the option of not touching existing improvements I didn't suffer micro mishaps through them myself.

Seems next up can finish the job at leisure.

 

[Cam_H]

Good stuff Sengir

I must admit that I was anticipating Isabella DoWing us rather than Elizabeth, with Sitting Bull going back to Hinduism as he did in nocho's set. Speaking of which - I note that Sitting Bull flipped out of Free Religion for a second time!

 

[Norvin_Green]

Got it.

 

[Norvin_Green]

That was nice, nothing to really worry about except hitting enter. Nice job everyone. As usual it was lots of fun.

Spoiler :

 

[lymond]

Nice job, Norv! Good game, fellas

 

[nocho]

Well done, everyone!

 

[mlinneak]

Nice job, guys, thanks for the read, very enjoyable!

 

[FiveRings]

Congrats, guys! Thanks for the detailled reports and insights gotten from you!

 

[vranasm]
