I PM's sk8boardbob today, but haven't heard a response.
Let's give him 24 hours to respond, then I'll take the next turnset.

 

[sk8boardbob2]

Yeah I've been lurking I'll have this played as soon as possible.

 

[Tasslehoff]

I haven't been online for 5 days due to a big chess tournament. I'm here now, though.

Please take pictures.

'A picture is worth a thousand words' With so few words, and no pictures, we are kind of in the dark.

While you're in the game, press print screen. (Right next to F12 on a PC)

Then go to Paint or something similar and paste the the picture there. Save it as a JPEG, and attach it as a thumbnail, like you do with the save.

 

[Hawk Chieftain]

Tasslehoff- I'm not sure if you're lurking or playing. If you want to play, then take the next set.

Can someone tell me why we want a Despotic GA without all 5 of our cities built?

 

[Hawk Chieftain]

We don't have to have a Despotic GA now if we don't want to. We could research/trade for Philo, then Republic before we strike Germany w/our Immorts. After the Barracks in Pasargadae is built, start on archers, and take out Leipzig.
What does the rest of the team think?
Roster:
Hawk Chieftain- Just played
The Overseer- Next
Killerkid-On Deck
Choxorn
Sk8boardbob

 

[TheOverseer714]

We can win this war with archers to avoid a despotic GA, which would probably be our best course. I will pull the Immo's out of action for now, and just go with an archer rush. Immo's can be mps and barb patrol. I also want to get some horses online, they are like fast archers and can retreat if necessary. Over all, looks pretty good. I have the save, will play starting tonight.

 

[Tasslehoff]

What, did I just drop off the face of CFC?

 

[TheOverseer714]

You want to play it, it is yours. Just give me the word. I can wait. We're all just a bit gun-shy, what with so many people disappearing from this forum.

 

[choxorn]

So many people? Who else?

 

[TheOverseer714]

So many people? Who else?

From SG's I'm involved with, Tad Empire, Elear, Sercer and Pol1, just off the top of my head. Of course, others came back, such as Tasslehoff and Kraznaya.

 

[killerkid]

It won't hurt to wait until we are in republic, so we should move the immo away from Leipzig in case it gets attacked and accidentally wins.

Where is the next city going? I think NW, W of leipzig.

 

[TheOverseer714]

Tassle, do you want the next turn or not? I waited so you would have a crack at it, but I haven't heard anything since. If I don't hear anything, I will play later on tonight.

 

[Tasslehoff]

Actually, my post was only in response to my absence from the roster, because I didn't see Hawk's post wondering about my lurking/playing. Go ahead, I'll take it after you.

 

[Hawk Chieftain]

Overseer- Tassle wants to swap with you. Can you play today or tomorrow?
