Can someone with CAII lay out the tech track that MIA has taken?

If they are bee-lining for Nationalism we may have to launch an attack sooner rather than later simply to initiate war weariness. Assuming an agreement with the Donuts we would have to discuss it with them, but they could launch an attack at a later time so they aren't bogged down by WW too much. But getting MIA out of Republic and having the anarchy (wouldn't it be sweet if the anarchy hit during their golden age - not only am I paranoid, but I'm wildly optimistic) might be worth the risk.

If we did strike the turn our peace ended (sooner than we will be ready IMHO), then I would recomend turtling up and letting War Weariness take its toll. We can switch to Monarchy at our leasure, and with a Donuts tech agreement in place we could still keep the reasearch pace going while forcing MIA to slog through the jungle if they want to end the war (assuming they don't flank us with an amphibious assault - paranoia brought to you courtesy of JB)

That's the second coherent thought that you've had. You are on a roll

pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

We are currently building privateers for the sea hunt, that's good! Should we keep our new glorious homeland ICS's? The dotmap was made with sci farms in mind, but...
Maybe we should make space for 1 or 2 biggies?

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

We need 1 or 2 biggie to make the nukes...

We need to generate as much cash as possible for stealing.

Happy Birthday, CommandoBob!!!

 

[Whomp]

Have Birthday Tex!

 

[Tubby Rower]

was it yesterday or today? anyhoo.. happy b-day old man. Now your one year closer to being as old as Whomp

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Although if I trust the admiral's word, I'm not sure "as old as Whomp" is achievable by us mortals

 

[Ansar]

Happy birthday, old guy!

Have a good one!

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

@ ansar, this lurker status due to school, just don't seem right. Should I deploy igor for a jailbreak?

@ B, in the beginning, there was God. Depending on you belief set, various things happened. Then came whomp. BTW, WTH is R cubed times T? Formula for calculating whomp's age?

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

R&#179;xT is a sophisticated way of saying "the world", it's like saying beer instead of booze.

 

[Sir Bugsy]

R³xT is a sophisticated way of saying "the world", it's like saying beer instead of booze.

I always drink beer rather than booze.
I haven't a clue how this (R³xT) translates to the world, but I can run with it

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

aah. for putting in terms I understand

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Bugs: R refers, in a broad sense, to a measurable dimension; R&#179; to our 3D world (with an imaginative stretch), and the product with T (T for time) makes it into the place we live in, with space and time included - a "Space-Time continuum". And I also drink beer, although we don't have a comparable word for booze in french so I shouldn't really say that, i just might drink booze if I had the linguistic chance to.

I wish. Alas, I do have available time after school, though I've wandered off civ since I have to spend time with cousins and my cousin introduced me to other games.

 

[Tubby Rower]

I have to spend time with cousins and my cousin introduced me to other games.

This isn't a "kissing cousin" is it. Because I thought that was only in AK's part of Pennsylvania and West Virginia

 

[Tubby Rower]

This just in....

 

[Daghdha]

If trouble comes in the shape of a tankard, bring it in

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Where, how, when ?? Wow Tubs you really are amazing

 

[gmaharriet]

Happy Birthday, Whomp!!!

I couldn't find any pandas with cakes, so this will have to do.
