Egypt and Vikings have Construction; England and Iroquois do not.
We have Currency and Literature; England and Iroquois do not.
Egypt is currently in anarchy, everyone else is in Republic.
I did not establish embassies with our Cleo or Ragnar.

Tribute said:And BTW, I may very well be wrong, but didn't Chuchui Husky leave?
An exploitive as well.Tribute said:A cunning plan indeed.
CommandoBob said:This exploit is banned in GOTMs though
You're right; I was wrong.Bucephalus said:I see no mention of it in the GOTM rules.
Tribute said:Actually, regardless of the rules, it is an exploit. It is unnatural and takes advantage of the AI's booting system. Has anyone in real life during such olden times been booted out of someone's land, shipped over to a different continent and dropped off? Now that I think about it, we are kind of being unfair to the AI in our game. How will THEY feel when they lose? They'll point at us and say we cheated, and they would be right, in a way.
Bucephalus said:Hey guys,
let me run this one past you: if we leave Warrior 'Yellow' where he is, then he will get orders to leave. Am I right in thinking that since he is so far from home, he will automatically be whisked to the nearest neutral square? And might not that square be next to another civ, maybe even on a third continent?
Is this a good idea, or will the 'irascible one' get his tonsure in a twist?
Tribute said:A cunning plan indeed. However, it may be troublesome if there are some inaccessible one tile islands around there. At any rate, just try to get as far as possible from our land by border jumping (switching back and forth between the AI territory border. Then, we wait in the farthest from a neutral tile in our land and hope for the best.

Which was not banned in this game. At least, I find no discussion of it in the first four pages of this thread. This exploit is banned in GOTMs though.
@D'Artagnan59: is this tactic okay with you?
@Bede: exploitive or not, is this tactic really any good?
Bucephalus said:Actually, I would argue that it is less of an exploit than the 'suicide-galley'; if an AI civ dropped-off a unit on our land, presumably they would have the same chance of relocation upon getting the 'boot' as we do. Sending out a 'suicide-galley', on the other hand, is seeking to gain an advantage in a way that the AI never can; and we all do it, don't we?

What tells you Ragnar has feudalism?
