Fox-05: The RNGod Strikes Back

[Ozbenno]

YOU SEE, IT WORKS A TREAT.

TOKOGAWA YOU PUS-DRIPPING POX-RIDDEN ASS-WIPE, THE NEXT NUKE HAS YOUR NAME ON IT.



Oh Master, you were magnificent. Wha.....

/*wakes up*/

You mean it was all a dream

Or was it?

 

[GreyFox]

One wonders how great the 100xp panthers would fare, if they were actually eligible for promotions ....

It's up to the next player to continue dreaming or choose to wake up.

Hilarious Rex, just so classic

 

[Ozbenno]

You have outdone yourself sir!

You have outdone yourself sir!

If only he could put as much effort into his gameplay

 

[Rex Tyrannus]

The Red Pill

All fighters prepare for attack!

The shield generator is down. Red group, blue group, follow me!

Check it out. Two food. Nice

BTW, we can't scrub fall-out, so those cities down south will be a . .. .. .. .. . to keep from starving.

I know what you're thinking. Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill?

 

[Rex Tyrannus]

The Blue Pill

Cold, hard, reality. No free tanks. No hopped-up felines. No tie bombers. (No way in hell of winning this game.)

No then, let's assess. 40-whatever turns to pillage three cottages. So everyone said: "smack Inca down." Myself included. But let me say, I just did it for five turns with aforementioned tanks, felines, and tie bombers. It wasn't easy then and it sure as hell won't be anything shy of a bloodbath with cannons and grennies. Especially with this:

So, where're we gonna find our three cottages?

Let's scope out down south.

Yeah, that's a big fat squadush. But looky over on that *other* continent...

Thar be cottages!

Alas, we're still pretty damned dumb, though.

But at least Brennus has this going for him:

And we've got this now!

Unfortunately, HC's got this:

Boo crazy techno-freak Incan. Hooray beer!

Anyway, we've got 2 GEs, so I burnt one of them on combustion.

See, we have another, keep your panties on.

Anyhow, I left staging areas and long go-tos. Plus, I automated our workers to work the trade route. Start ranting ... NOW!

 

[Rex Tyrannus]

So, what's it gonna be? The red pill, or the blue pill?

Edit: (applies to blue pill) The player before me was running low science. Presumably to upgrade cannons to artillery. I agree with this tactic. We're teching pretty well, even at 40%. One problem though is emancipation. New Sarai has 5 redshirts demanding emancipation. Let's try to get that before HC builds the spaceship, m'kay?

 

[berserks01]

My RNGod ... what a nightmare you guys are running here ... and woe-is-me to pick up on such dispicable acts .... but I've got it.

 

[ChrTh]

So, what's it gonna be? The red pill, or the blue pill?

You do realize it was a false choice, right? The tracing program was in the water!

Morpheus is one sneaky bastard

 

[GreyFox]

Fabulous report, Mr Rex!

Heh, so now, it boils down to a blue pill red pill routine ... I am so glad I swapped with Rex so that I won't be making that choice Now it is either you play from 2 branches per turnset, or you gather your guts and choose one of them.

On the blue pill thingy, yes, we could certainly declare on Brennus and use his cottages to complete the objective if we are not ready for Mr Huayana. Good thing Huayana is continuing his space mission (I suspect he may have the personality of someonemore peaceful, perhaps even Gandhi). This means he won't be spending all his effort on military builds.

[Rex Tyrannus]

Fox, HC's power continues to spike. However, atm, he's friendly (maybe pleased? very high modifier) with us. Plus declaring would ruin his defensive pacts. So, I'm not worried about HC. Plus, everyone dislikes Brennus. *note, the previous is taken without having done any real analysis of relations.

btw, berserks already called got it.

 

[GreyFox]

Oh, I didn't realized there was 2 cross-posts while I was cut-n-pasting the damned-bloody long list. Edited.

[Ozbenno]

There is no way in hell we could have taken Huayana. Its was hard enough nuking his cities and having the free tanks. He had tanks himself plus an endless supply of artillery.

 

[berserks01]

Well, I took the blue pill without really remembering which pill is which.

My personal objective.

Gain 100 gold .... hmmmm ... well, seeing as how we're generating 92g per turn ... it's a done deal.

Combustion came in, I start Constitution on my way to Industrialism for tanks.

We spawned a GM and HC built the SS Casting. I sent the GM to Cuzco to see how much gold he could generate

and it turns out 3750g is how much I will leave him there for some discussion for the next player to do it.

Brennus comes demand this

but I sent him packing.

Corporation comes in, and I start Assembly

Then I suprised HC by doing this

and then this

and he's history.
