...and in Fetch's case, a little distrubing.

You never know what kind of weirdos you'll meet online. Better not give out your phone number or anything. :crazyeye:
 
You said he's not from the future and he crashed in a space ship. Is he an alien?

Ok, I shoved a lot of turns together on that one, but oh well. I don't know whether I'll be posting much more this week, but the good news is that we're almost to the good part.

good part???? the whole thing has been great.
 
Well, to put it quite bluntly, this is the most spectacular story I have ever seen on these forums.

A most excellent piece of work!! Keep it comin'!!!
 
I noticed that the capital has both unrest and unhealthyness. Why do you not write about that?

Anyway, good story. I cannot wait to here from you again!

He did, in a way I guess:

“We are still one sliver of civilization among barbarism, Iason. If we are to take our place among the great civilizations of the world, we must do so as one dominion, inviolate and unified. We must be more than we are now.”


As for the story, I love it! Makes me want to play a nice builder game again ;)Keep up the good work!
 
fantastic story, only one problem, i cant see the pics. still i get the idea. keep it up!
 
Since I haven't posted in a while, I thought I'd wite (in a non-distrubing way) to say that I'm enjoying the story, and keep it up.

I meant in detail, since you are writing everything else in detail. Wright about how Claudia is overcrowded. These people are unhealthy from being so close togeather, and are unhappy about it.
 
just a quick update, still enjoying this story.

Keep it up! You've mangaed to keep a pretty peaceful game interesting.

Good job.

Patience...er, no, actually, I'd had no plans to address that. But now that I think about it, it will kind of come up.

Anyway, thanks. I'm too exhausted to work on it tonight (my kid's bath-time is in 9 minutes and then it's straight to bed), but I should find some time this weekend.
 
when I said peaceful I was referring to the fact that, unlike me, you havn't declared war on everybody and everything.
 
The fact that he's got an island to himself kinda helps. The Philosopher Kings aren't inherently hippy peace "Kumbaya" singers who always go for the Diplomatic Victory. Generally, there's a few villains who would rather make war than peace, forcing the Philosopher Kings to fight back (and they're pretty fierce fighters, too). There's even one story in which Helming wins by Conquest! So don't expect the peace to last very long.

By the way, what did you end up doing with Moseas? Did he pop a free tech for you? Did you join him to a city? Are you still saving him up for a Holy City in the future?
