250AD: Change sliders to 3.5.2, Theology in 10 at -10gpt. Change Herakleia to worker. Change Eretria to worker.

270AD (1): Herakleia worker > settler. Ephesus worker > warrior. Iro are really giving the babs a pounding.

280AD (2): Delphi worker > worker. Sell WM around for 4g. Definitely don't like the way the Chinese are approaching Rhodes. Move Elite hoplite onto workers building road.

290AD (3): Troy worker > library. Athens marketplace > horseman. Argos settler > horseman. Settler sent to spot NW of Herakleia where horses and game are. Oh lord, we got quite a Chinese force outside our borders, and they don't look like they're here to just say hello. Move workers building road to Rhodes into Rhodes, as well as the hoplite guarding it. Change Pharsalos to hoplite and rush it. Change Rhodes to hoplite. Move some forces in Mycenae to Pharsalos. Kill barb camp and get 25g. The Chinese have 3 reg horseman, 2 reg archers and a warrior bearing down on us.

IBT: Babs sign a MA with Rome against England.

300AD (4): Dyes connected, lower lux to 10%. Theology in 4 at +4gpt. More Chinese incoming, now we have 4 horseman (one vet), 6 archers and a warrior. Change Rhodes to hoplite and rush it. Call up Mao, give him 2gpt for 29g. Then ask him to remove forces, and he declares war! (wow, how surprising...) Vet horse in Pharsalos pops out and kills one regular horse. Moving workers in Rhodes outta here.

IBT: Rome and England sign peace. Archer dies attacking elite hoplite and now we are in our golden age. Reg horse dies attacking hoplite in Pharsalos and it promotes to vet.

310AD (5): Mycenae library > horseman, Sparta cathedral > Suns (to be changed to Sistines), Delphi worker > horeseman, Ephesus warrior > library. Looks like the Chinese are off to take Rhodes, move a vet warrior from Pharsalos onto a mountain. Move reg hoplite, vet horseman and reg warrior onto the forest, hopefully they'll distract some Chinese. Set sliders to 5.5.0, Theology in 2 at 46gpt.

IBT: two archers and one warrior die attacking Rhodes, reg hoplite promotes. Chinese horse kills warrior on mountains and promotes.

320AD (6): Therm galley > library. Galley sent up to explore up. Change Rhodes to hoplite and rush. Change Pharsalos to horse. Move warrior/hoplite/horse group towards Rhodes. Thessalonica settler > settler. Settler goes to iron source NE of it.

IBT: Chinese horse retreats. Kill a horse and 3 archers. Elite horse dies attacking our vet horse coming towards Pharsalos.

330AD (7): Athens horse > horse. Get Theo, Education in 9 at 4gpt. Looks like the Chinese attack is gassing out. Move vet hoplite onto mountain. Change Pharsalos to library. Move retreating workers back towards Rhodes.

340AD (8): Knossos library > aqueduct. Send warriors in Mycenae on a pillaging mission (take out the iron that will be online once Tsingtao's borders expand. Lose 2 warriors trying to take out archer on mountain, and then kill it with vet horseman. MM Sparta, 0 growth but 31 shields after corruption. Sistine in 17. Zulu settle on horse spot :(.

350AD (9): Corinth harbor > library, Athens horse > horse, Allegany hoplite > library. Sell WM around for 16g.

360AD (10): Argos horse > library, Herakleia settler > library. Change Thessalonica to library. Find Marathon, set to library. Find Halicarnassus and set to harbor.

Whoa, more action than I expected! Chinese still refuse to meet us. Education in 5 at +5gpt. Sistines in 15. We got quite a defensive force in Rhodes so we should be safe from any further attacks. Chinese offensive definitely looks gassed though.

Here is the link.
 
From reading this we haven't signed and MA with anyone against the Chinese. Wizard if I were you I would get an MA with the Zulu against the Chinese at least.

Now the war is on we should try to get the Pyaramid city (can't remember which it is) and also try to capture some workers.

Try and generate some elite horses and we'll have a stab at a leader, then army, then Heroic Epic.
 
Computer totally out, I think. It's taking two and three day breaks between working. :( I don't care what my parents say, I'm calling Best Buy yet again..
 
Aww, sorry to hear that, Smellin'...:(

Here's the one- day- late turnlog:

Preturn: Check everything to get a look on where we are going, the long gap between this and the save I played before is a little too long...:( Sign embassy with the Zulu in order to get MA against the Chinese. They are building the Great Wall in Zimbabwe, due in 7 turns! They want Monotheism for MA... I think it's better to give it than Feudalism. Sign MA against China for Monotheism, we get WM + 1 gold...

IBT: Iroquis Swords pass by Allegheny. Athens builds Horse, starts horse. Delphi Horse > horse.

370AD: The Military advisor says our troops are weak compared to the Chinese...:( But let them see, we'll :hammer: them! Set settler to go to free spot between Zulu cities. Why don't we have any swords? Hmm... no iron...? Why haven't we upgraded our warriors? Well, I'm not gonna because there must be some good reason...

The save: :hammer:
 
Sorry for being late to post guys. I haven't downloaded the save yet, but I will play tonight.

I'll try to post some general comments on the game too.
 
Sorry about not connecting up the iron. With our GA activated by the war, I was planning on signing peace relatively early with the Chinese so that we could use this period of time to build some infrastructure (like libraries and maybe a FP).
 
Another SG I am in took twice as long to complete as I expected - and I still haven't finished, and I owe another game a turn from a few days ago. I won't be able to play realistically till Thursday.

So I'm sorry but I'll have to skip, unless you want to wait that long.
 
OK, so mad-bax's game won't work, Smellincoffee's computer is out - back with me again? OK, I'll see what I can do.

Do we have iron yet? I think the best thing now is to grind out veteran horsemen (cheap) until we get 1, maybe 2 leaders, then get a peace treaty. Maybe build some Barracks...
 
It's not that my game won't work. It works fine. If you can wait till Thursday (i.e. tomorrow) then I'll play, otherwise you can swap with me and I'll play after you this time round, or you can skip me completely for this rotation. I just didn't want to have you hanging around waiting for me.

It's just unfortunate that I got up in all my SG's on the same day and one of them took over 4 hours to play 8 turns.

So it's up to you.
 
Maybe you should try to participate to fewer SG's at the same time? ;)

It's ok with me either way, so you choose, Håkon. :)
 
Well, when I joined this one I expected 2 others to be completed by now. So temporarily I am at risk of being up in more SG's than I can play in 48hrs.
 
I can wait till Thursday, no problem there - having homework to do + watching Norway v Spain at football, so I won't have too much time
 
Europe plays football? Thought that was mostly just popular in America.


Oh....you meant soccer?! :lol:

---------------------

I emailed the network administrator at my college about my computer problem. He's said to know quite a bit about hardware.

Europe plays football, also called association football (soccer). US play helmetball, alternatively called rugby for nancies ;)

Sounds good :) Hope to have you back soon.
 
Even our girls don't play rugby with all that gear on, and we run for 40 minutes at a time instead of 14 seconds or less.
 
Umm... Mad- Bax, what is your time zone?

Just inerested because it's good to know approximately the time you will play at...
