C3C PBEM: "Rocroy" - Great Armada scenario

[Pinman]

I've noticed something myself. Paris is not letting me build its wonder.

Is this something to be concerned about?

Pinman

It is a work in progress, there are always a couple issues. I should have paid better attention.

I may want another crack at this turn after thinking about it. When I saw the total corruption I replayed and went back tot he original. I may play it a bit differently to see if I can mitigate some damage. If it is OK that is.

 

[Pinman]

No problems here. It is not a turn with combat.

[LouLong]

Arghhh difficult to make RM a balanced government

Pinam : check the requirements you need to build the wonder in Paris. It is not that straightforward.

 

[semental]

Nevermind - Quarky, play the turn I sent you. Wow, I would be bankrupt in a turn.

 

[Knutis]

Like things wasn't looking bad enough for the catholics allready

But don't worry! The Irish will save the day!

 

[Pinman]

Lou I took a look at the requirements and they are indeed more complicated than I originally thought.

It appears that there is a time and luck aspect to the wonder as well.

I'm afraid that I don't quite understand. Would you mind explaining the mechanics? I'm afraid that the wonder was a crucial part of my game plan.

The English prepare to repel the trecherous Irish invaders, and call on out northern neighbours for help

Pinma: you need to have a cathedral (which itself requires a church) and the resource to be able to build the wonder "Paris is worth a mass"... which means some building first !

Don't worry about your plans. I have crumbled already

 

[greygamer]

Spanish Musketeers easily defeated an attack by Dutch Reiters for no losses
further military action was abandoned against the enemy forces

[LouLong]

No action... But really hope to see the French troops attacking my cities next turn have some unluck for a change.

 

[Pinman]

When you conisder the fact that there were 15 guns trained on Paris the fact that we lost anything at all is abit of bad luck woudn't you say?

Btw: I've sold all the improvements

 

[Pinman]

Knutis when are you and I going to be on the same team?

This PBEM just got more interesting........

Pinman

 

[semental]

You could always come back to the Church!

 

[Pinman]

I fully intend to.

Right after I build a Cathedral and destroy the French League...

Paris is worth a mass after all.....

Switching sides in this war though- Ain't ganna happen.

Pinman

 

[semental]

Then we will just have to burn the heretics to save them!
