Kill the Shabba - Shabba the Killer?

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

hehe, are you alluding to the fact that Rome now has a worker less? Well, live in peace and give hostages to ensure your survival - that is actually a smart thing form them to do, isn't it?

 

[Shabbaman]

May the wrath of Rome's mighty legions strike upon thee, Sir Killer!

(actually, I'm currently playing the Imperialism scenario, and my closest neighbour, The Mighty Caesar, doesn't even have access to iron... Where are your legionnaires now:muahaha: )

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

hehe, Rome and iron? nooooooo, not really, they'd have to dislogde my units from the mountains first I guess

 

[Shabbaman]

That filthy Chinese built Shanghai on exact the same spot I picked for a city 20 turns ago! And it is about the best spot for a city I've ever seen... (let's see if I can post a screenie)

Crap on them and their mothers! This calls for war!

(how do I set my stance to furious? )

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

ohhhhh, poor shabba
I got my city sites Roman-secure atm

 

[Shabbaman]

Very nice. I don't have tons of units to spare.

Would you build your city here? I would. It's about time for the Chinese-North Korean conflict...

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

ahhh, that is a *really* nice spot. Pity you lost it

No, I do not mean I block them, but they seem somewhat slowed down by the loss of their worker

 

[Shabbaman]

No, that lone warrior isn't major Opportunity, but that undefended settler there is. Although it might be pretty dumb to annoy the americans now, since they have a larger military than I have...

On the other hand, since it's regicide it'll probably all be spearmen. What should I do?

Another thing, sidely related: at the end of my turn, I see the American settler move. AFAIK, that shouldn't happen, since the Americans play before me... What's happening here?

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

oh, interesting!

Go get him if you can. Until they come for you they will be ready to talk peace. Even if it costs a tech you still get two workers and cost them a settler.....


I do not know what the move might mean.....

I see the same thing in my head-to-head vs. ERIKK #2. Earlier players than me move when I end my turn.

It is very confusing for me too. I am player 5, and I still can't work out when the AI to AI trades happen either. I figured players 2, 3 and 4 would trade between ERIKK's and my turn, but I am not so sure.

There is definately a bug, or human players were always intended to be before all AI players. That doesn't make sense though, as player 1 gets all the trade money, etc.

If you work anything out, please let me know

hello!

 

[Shabbaman]

Lincoln:"Hello Shabbaman, how are things going in North Korea?"

We definetely should have played with the George W. leaderhead.

Anyway, no chance of me grabbing some undefended settler chicks in this game apparently: they move at warp 3 back to their capitol...

To killer of the Great Ottoman Empire: I have ceremonial burial to offer.
(if I click 'offer', do I get a response the next turn, or what?)

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

I think you do. but i don't think I have anything proper to offer back.....

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

I offered 17 Gold (all I have atm)

 

[Shabbaman]

"I think they will be insulted with this offer!"

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

I have to retract the offer anyways:

'your poor civilization has nothing to offer to the great Ottomans!'

 

[Shabbaman]

Killer, it seems that the university mail server is down...

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

what? nooooooo!

Can you post the file here?

 

[Shabbaman]

Well, I guess the thing is already working again...
