I will be attempting on online Turn Chat tomorrow at noon Central Time. Just thought I would post that here. I haven't been able to do this in a while. Please post any wants or Instructions below.

We will be using this save.
 
We're still aiming for a Domination win with the Panzer People still alive?
 
But the Panzer People are our friends.... :confused:
 
Yes they are. The idea to win with them still around to appreciate our Domination. Right? (And that's my question. I'm sorry; it looks like I tried to be clever and was only confusing! :crazyeye:)
 
Very clever, indeed, CB. And unless we hear differently, that will be our strategy. Launching off this war-torn planet may bring our adventures to a close a bit sooner, but I believe only montizzle (in his last monthly post) and I supported a Spaceship Victory. So onward and upward we shall move toward the human trait of world domination.

As I've mentioned before, the Greeks are building The United Nations wonder. This could spell doom for our ever-growing nation. As we spread Democracy around the world, some nations, even our friends and allies, have chosen to dislike us. Something to consider.
 
T/C starting.

change most of the navy builds to Tanks or MI
check with the Cairde for a wine deal. Spices, Iron, and Rubber

along with 12 gpt will get us those wines. The Cairde will be able

to build Panzers, but they are at war with Greece and Persia, so in

the goal of helping our lying, cheating brother, we will help them

fight that war by supplying rubber.
Move warships out to Persian coast and bombard Antioch and Sidon.

Have we lost all participants in this game? Am I playing the Cyc Demogame?
 
No, just a bit busier than normal right now. Or so it has seemed, anyway.

Next T/C is when?
 
Sorry, unfortunately I been tied up and preoccupied witl real life issues. I keep lookimg in but don't seem to get round to posting anything.

I don't mind exactly how we win, but it would be nice to eliminate everyone but our little brother, liar and cheat that he may be. As you are having to do most of the work though Cyc, I would say go for whatever you need to win.
 
Thanks for checking in people. Thought I was alone. I understand how time has become scarce.

That said, I am rather enjoying the off-line sessions, as meeting deadlines for C3C can be a problem. Being able to split a 5 turn session into a 2/3 session can really be a life-saver.

As it stands now, we have invaded Persia, taken 4 cities including their Capital. We are moving Northwest, but plan on picking up the furs in the South while we attempt to secure the Gems up North. Modern Armor is three turn away. When we nail this Tech down, we will switch most of our production to MAs, as the Greeks (according to our Spy) have 43 Mech Infantry. Those UN-building Greeks have also taken 4 Cairde cities (not to mention the cities the Cairde took from the Chinese). I may move the Transports up when loading the MAs and attack the Greek directly and immediately. We'll let the Armies come up from the Persian war when they are finished. We need to capture Sparta in order to control or trash the UN.

We've done what we could to help the Cairde. Maybe I could have given them Rubber sooner. I feared their Panzer divisions would become too strong. We'll see what happens there.

Any suggestions, complaints, or Instructions? I'd like to hear what you have to say.
 
I'm here, reading and following along, just been busy.
 
Thanks for checking in, TO. :thumbsup:
 
I'm back with my monthly post. I am sorry that I have not participated in, well, anything. I have difficulty being on time for turn chats with everything going on right now. On that note, I plan to continue playing devil's advocate to hamper any well planned progress and generally agitate those around me.

Good luck with that, montizzle. Fight the good fight. :)
Thanks for checking in. We will continue to press on.

Looks like you are having fun, but are you using the Artillery? And where is our fleet of bombers? We should be kicking butt over there, and no landing should even be a threat. Ah well, you are playing it, do it your way;)

Let's see. We have 1 Artie (I believe) in Persia that we captured. All others are in the Homeland for defense. I guess I can bring them over, the Greeks are really tough. I don't have time to build Bombers. Sorry, I'm not used to playing Continents. I'm planning on transporting MAs and hope they can do the job.

If you'd like to play some sessions TO, that won't be a problem with me. But my plan was to land the MAs in Greece (now accompanied with the 13 Arties) and zig-zag to Sparta.
