--Civil Disorder in Hua Hin:( (At least the music is cool)
--Epheseos Settler->market
--Thung Song temple ->barracks
--Bribe Aztec phalanx blocking Knossos for 31g
Notes
--The units in Pharsalos are headed for Knossos next turn, but the next player can change that.
--We can take Paris with the units we have, but they won't all be active until next turn.
--I devoted a little tax to science because our(my:)) next goal is Armor, 6 techs away(including the one we're researching right now.
--Athens currently has 5 Scientists. This is a trick for cities that are otherwise not very useful. Once they get to size 5, make all workers the same specialist. This way, the city will contribute more to taxes/science than it would normally. This works even if tax/science rate is 0. you just have to make sure to put them back to work before the city starves. In Civ II, you can do it even if your food deficet is 100fpt and you have 1 food left in the box, but I'm not sure about Civ I.
 
addiv: You're up. Any estimate on when you can play?
 
Guys, I thought I would tell you that with my summer schedule I will not be able to participate very much in our SG. However, I will check back from time to time and keep up with where the game is.

Hope everyone understands.

How about you stormerne?
 
I've just over some rather time consuming big gig work so OK within the next 24 hours.
 
Help!!! I've now come down with an illness and can't sit at the computer much... Doubtless I'll be OK in a few days but I really ought to miss this time around. Can someone else please take the next go instead of me?
 
I can't step in for a couple more days; I have banned myself from playing any games (even civ1 :)) until I finish perfecting the DyP civilopedia.

How about we turn this into a semi-open SG? That is, anyone on the roster can grab it if they have a chance by posting a "got-it" message and then playing in the next 24 or 48 hours. Just try to keep it so that at least 2 others play between your turns. Comments?
 
Pity this game had to end so soon...
I was just begining to enjoy it.
