How many turns do you plan to play?

Edit: never mind. found the answer in the Chieftain's office.

I've asked for a special session to be played in order to learn what type of great person we will receive. This special session would only consist of one turn.

 

[Hyronymus]

IMPORTANT NOTE:

I've edited the initial post to stress the difference between this topic for the normal gameplay session and the topic for the (offline) special gameplay session.

 

[Hyronymus]

Note: I've given orders for the Great Scientist, but it might be better to delay this TC a day to give some more time for discussion.

Don't raze Dortmund, Frankfurt and Tartar.

Raze Bremen if This poll ends in Raze, otherwise, keep it.

Don't change civivs.

Don't complete the Taj Mahal yet! Put something else in the build queue when it's 1 turn from completion.

Move the new Great Scientist towards Xanadu

STOP when Germany is exterminated
STOP if someone declares war on us
STOP when Constitution and Democracy have been finished

 

[Tanktunker]

Research Constitution, and then Democracy.

 

[fed1943]

Xanadu - Build queue: forge - observatory - confucian temple.
WF: as it is. After grow to 14: NN - NNE - NW - N - NE - ENE -
WW - W - WSW - SW - S - SE - SSW - SS.

Cologne - Build queue: granary - market - observatory.
WF: right now, as it is. When granary done (1T) : N - E - EE - S.
When grow to 5: put new pop on WNW.

Munich - Build queue: always military units (chosen by Warlord, Chieftain, DP,
in that order, if nobody chooses, catapults).
WF: NN - NW - N - NE - ENE - W - SSE. When grow to 8: put new
pop on E. When grow to 9: put new pop on NNE.

Berlin - Build queue: granary - confucian temple - colesseum - grocer.
WF: military needs make unhapiness here impossible to preview,so
please, balance city need of hammers with commerce, and go on
growing as this war shall not be forever.


Workers: (near Berlin) CT2 and CT3 build a farm;then go SW and build road
and farm; CT1, after road, go NNN to build road and farm.
(near Munich) RT5 and RT4, after farm, go SE and build a farm;
then farm and road the unimproved NNW of Cologne (sequence
by DP).
(near Cologne) unnamed worker - name him C1 - goes SW and
camp, then N and road, then NW mine and road.


Good luck!

 

[Joe Harker]

Shamelessly taken from dutchfires ideas

Move 1 knight from Munich to Tartar.
Move Knight3 from Berlin to Tartar.
Send Caravel1 due northwest.
Send Caravel2 due northeast.
Send 3. Stormer Infantery (near city#1) to Bremen.

Take Frankfurt first, then move the units north to take Tartar, then move the stack north to take Bremen and then north to take Dortmund.

If this poll results in "Stop and decide" then delay play session.

 

[Hyronymus]

If this poll results in "Stop and decide" then delay play session.

In that case the gamaplay session will MOST LIKELY be postponed until Friday evening August 17th @ 19:00 GMT.

 

[Provolution]

I already filed a Customers Complaint/ Citizens Complaint. Unless the Chief Scientist change the order to engineering first (per poll), the CC would be enacted, and the turnchat delayed. This compounds the poll added by our honorary chief justice.

I am sorry Hyronymus, you did nothing wrong here, but it has failed badly from the science office.

 

[Hyronymus]

I will monitor the Judiciary thread to see if your case will have merit. If that's so I expect the Judiciary to rule swiflty and we'll schedule the gameplay session from then.

 

[Provolution]

If this case has no merit, I would be very surprised.

 

[Hyronymus]

Instructions for the Northwestern aimag will be made "on the fly" with citizen input as my guide.

 

[ordinaryguy]

Change in instructions for Southwestern Aimag. See post #5.

 

[Hyronymus]

This gamaplay session is MOST LIKELY postponed until Friday August 17th @ 19:00 GMT.

 

[donsig]

This gamaplay session is MOST LIKELY postponed until Friday August 17th @ 19:00 GMT.

I'd like to point out that the qualifier most likely rules this unacceptable as an announcement under the game play scheduling initiative.

I'm inclined under the circumstances to support the request that play be postponed and would like a firm announcement of when this session is expected to be played. If you really are hoilding off till Friday then that gives adequate time to sort out the tech research issue.

This gamaplay session is MOST LIKELY postponed until Friday August 17th @ 19:00 GMT.

Good. I saw the request for a stay so I never bothered to post my instructions.

 

[Hyronymus]

Methos, can you change the topic top reflect the new preliminary date?
