I'm sorryStrauss said:Now that you're at it anyway, could you perhaps give us some Bombers and perhaps a Modern Armor
There is a one request per person limit ...I probably should have mentioned that earlier. You asked for "tanks in a jungle" and someone else asked for a Longbowman.

I hope this game won't come back to me anymore
Playing one turn at a time, it could go on for a while here!
What the crap! My last post failed to perform!
Anyway, I had written something to the effect of: "WHY THE HELL ARE WE AT WAR WITH CHINA AND RUSSIA?" (on second thought, I think that is exactly what I said, but no matter.
I'll play the turn (that were a stupid rule) tonight... or once I finish my daily ration of soup (being sick makes this much less funny)...
As tempted as I am to pull a little duex es machina via the World Builder (ya know, just a small stack next to Moscow, belonging to Japan, containing the required units: 3 mech infantry, with unspent promotions totalling to level 3, 10 modern armor, same promotion scheme as the mechs (unspent and totalling to level 3), 15 artillery... and 12 choppers; with that, we still wouldn't be okay), I will not.
I've got it.
One turn, w/o death, come-ing up.

...although to be honest, I think we need rifles more ...
It is a time of... Chaos.
Now, I realize that might sound slightly silly (ok, very silly) to the people of the land, which is called Chaos. But, it is an adequate description of what goes on in this stupid little country, with the stupid little people in their stupid little roles... I'm sorry, I guess I'm just depressed.
I am... well, you could call me one of the last chroniclers of this depressing little kingdom. I lead a revolt against the great King Strauss, pretty much because he couldn't learn to keep his nose out of everyone's business. It was a mercy run-out-of-town, really.
In the typical fashion of the Chaotic people of whence I come, they appointed me as their leader. Me, who knows relatively nothing. A humble, sarcastic priest with nothing more than a gift for words. I told them I'd stick around for a season, just so that they could get back on their feet.
I made that up off the top of my head.
Since I was of the priesthood, they had prepared a party of missionaries to welcome me into office. I ordered that the missionaries be outfitted with rifles, and prepared to keep our formerly great Nation alive.
Anyway, our nation is crumbling around us. Somehow, the words of the ancient prophet Brutha were not heeded.
People came before me, telling me of massive behemoths of metal and oil in the jungle between Adamame and Chaos (such stupid city names, too). I climbed to one of the highest mountains, but yet saw none.
Praises be!
However, I turned my gaze to the south, back to my fair city of Chaos and saw thusly:
I expect this to be the last testament of the priesthood, which has ruled Chaos from time to time.
I attempted to broker peace between our attackers, but they would not even speak to us. My envoys were sent back, unharmed, but without discussion. I fear we are doomed, especially when I saw this vast army advancing upon us.
Truly, I thought this was our doom.
I returned from my retreat to the mountains, and snuck back into the city of Chaos. I saw to it that the ancient longbowmen, named after one of the greatest leaders of Chaos, Munterpipe, were outfitted with rifles, instead of longbows. When my advisors came to me, and complained about this mistake in weaponry, I explained to them that in no way can a longbow compete, at least for an extended period of time, with a rifle.
The years passed and the siege continued.
In January of the year 1931, I got news from Adamame. The city was still standing! Alas, the next messenger that snuck in brought grim tidings. Despite our ability to destroy artillery, Adamame had fallen.
Munterpipe's regiment, now equipped with rifles, easily held off a Chinese attack in march of the year. The troops, high on Chrith hill, held off way after wave, before the Chinese grenadier regiments retreated. I then sent the 1st Chaos Anti-Mounted Division out, who defeated, in a successful maneuver, some Russian Cossacks.
I also recieved word from one of our spies, a "Mrs. Conroe," that she had single-handedly delayed the training of a group of COKS. I tried not to wrap my imagination around the poorly code.
In April, I left the throne, as a man of the great Double-Syllabic ruler came to the throne. This is what I saw as I fled over the mountains.
Messageto the third next ruler: YOU ARE SCREWED!
I expect to see Chaos fall into nothing more than a memory, by the year 1935. We will leave this planet before the mid-century, I am sure of it.
Goodbye, fair Chaos. I loved thee well.

Since there has been so much action here lately, I figured out a new rule.
Remember the prank points?
Could the former and the present prankster sum up the prankster point tally (I can't resist asking the pushover to read through all 26 pages )and supply the team with some sort of "menu" from which we can buy stuff for our survival?
Just as an example so that you see what I mean:
Prankster tally:
Warmonger: 5 pp
pushover: 2 pp
tyrant: 9 pp
Menu:
5 pp: free mech inf in capitol
7 pp: gain control of random enemy city
1 pp: "skip me, I don't wanna die"
15 pp: Nuke
2*Xpp: X # of population boost in chosen city
1 pp: Your favourite unit gets renamed after you!
etc...
The warmonger might buy the free Mech inf.
The pushover, being so scared right now, will promptly ask for a skip in the next two rotations. And the tyrant, not affording the nuke, could rather spend his points on a populationboost to whip the damned nuke instead.
Got it?

Great report Zalson!
Don't be so pesimistic.
The battleship hasn't been destroyed yet.
How many prankster points would you need to equip it with wheels?
SG Breaker (munterpipe)
Tyrant (Minion joe)
Pushover (ruff_hi)
Cleaner (chriseay)
MicroManager (Strauss)
Religious Fanatic (Zalson) I bet you 1 Prankster Point that the game will return to you at least one more time
Automaton (jeejeep alternating for Sharog) Up! (remember, one turn only)
Warmonger (chrth) on deck

Great report, Zalson!
For example, the screenshot of Cathy's Tanks was just that, a screenshot. They weren't actually added to the save. I did put a Battleship in, but in a jungle tile, where it would be absolutely useless to you. Although, I must admit I'm surprised that Cathy has not attacked it, yet.
Of course, adding the Super Longbowman from Ruff03 turned out to be a bit of an imbalance. I figured, what harm could a longbow do? It seems that I forgot that a longbow could be upgraded.
Of course, this game is already a loss anyway ... Does it really matter? I will leave it up to Team Chaos. Is this something that you want to do?
Yeah, that's her alright ...Zalson said:
This does sound like a fun idea. Although, I am concerned about the "unbalancing" effects that this would have on the game. When I've gone into worldbuilder, I've always tried to do things that wouldn't impact the outcome of the game one way or the other.Munterpipe said:Could the former and the present prankster sum up the prankster point tally (I can't resist asking the pushover to read through all 26 pages

I've been thinking about this - just imagine what sort of damage I could do with my 342m pp if I was, say, the warmonger!

Personally, I'd rather let the game die a natural death. Otherwise, it'll just turn into this:
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LET IT END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHAOS MUST GO DOWN IN DEFEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ewgu
Sorry about that guys... I'd like not to add to the silliness in the way specified by purchasing ... things, but... eh. It is supposed to be chaotic. How about you can redeem it for one random unit?
I think it'll go out with... ChrTh or Munterpipe. IT WILL NOT GET BACK TO ME AGAIN!!!!!
