Chaos SG

[MinionJoe]

I'll grab the file at lunch, but I won't be able to play/post turns until very late tonight or sometime tomorrow. Just to let you all know. And to give the citizens of Chaos time to evacuate the cities before I whip them all into gigantic, uncontrollable, whirling deathmachines.

 

[Zalson]

Guys, this game is slowly, but surely driving me nuts. I think I need a break, at least until the next SGOTM, before I can try this again. Thanks for the offer!

 

[jeejeep]

Off-topic: For the SGOTM are we going to do the variant the same, or just have the same players?

 

[MinionJoe]

Everyone;

I'm very sorry but I'm going to have to bow out of the Chaos SG game. Some problems have come up at home that require my full attention right now. I've had a great game and have enjoyed playing with you all. Once things have settled down here, I'll come back and check back in. If nothing else, I'll read up on how the game ended. Thanks for your time, your understanding, and for helping break in this newbie to the world of succession gaming in Civilization.

Take care all!

Joe

Sorry to hear that, MinionJoe. Give us a nudge when you are back, then. You contributed a lot to this game

@Zalson, I'm glad we're driving you nuts, at least, even though you won't join us in making a mess of the Sgotm

[ruff_hi]

What - no instructions apart from give ChThr a blind fold?

 

[ruff_hi]

Well, I am happy to report that I think we will fulfill ChThr's "I don't want to see any chinese cities when I get back" instruction. I was happily executing these instructions against the purple team (they are the Chinese, right?) on our Western front and had forces in place just ready to take Beijing when this happened ...

I did ask her earlier if she wanted to join in the fun with the Chinese but she just tossed her hair at me. Anyway, I have to go now, my mother is calling me. Sorry, bye.

[chriseay]

I see it, but don't have it quite yet. Will play today or tomorrow.

 

[Zalson]

Wow... and we have how many gunpowder units... like 2?

Can you say... we're dead?

Sorry, that was just my fatalism. Om's prophets are decisively against dying.

 

[Strauss]

Can you say... we're dead?

Of course not you fool, can't you see the battleship? We'll crush the Russians!

 

[Zalson]

Forgot about that battleship! There's no way we'll lose!

 

[chriseay]

If only I could clean up the battleship, it's making such a mess just sitting there in the middle of the jungle!

 

[ChrTh]

How goes it Tyrant?!? Anything left for me to warmong?

 

[chriseay]

Oooh I thought I had said today or tomorrow yesterday, not two days ago! Somehow I lost a day.....

Playing in a couple minutes.

 

[chriseay]

Ok, so I had a big report with pictures and commentary and such, but then my computer decided to freeze, so here is the executive no pictures summary.
Turned off science to do as many upgrades as possible. Destroyed one of three stacks originally coming, a 4th came later. Lost theory after killing many many enemies, but that's pretty much it. Pulling this one out is going to be tough.

 

[ChrTh]

Ummm...Butterfly is in serious trouble! Can we make peace with Qin?

[Strauss]

Got it, will play in a few hours

 

[chriseay]

Neither AI we are at war with would take peace during my turns. They wouldn't even talk to me, though I didn't check the last couple of turns so at this point it might be possible. I have a feeling they are going to smell blood and keep on us though.
