MP6 - a Madman and his Ladies.

[Ansar]

lurker's comment: Armies are just about 1k after the first turn, IMO, unless you really need the army, wait 7 turns.

 

[grahamiam]

got it. will do what I can tonight

 

[grahamiam]

I'm up to 1460AD. Do we want to go commie?

 

[Pentium]

Would it be worth another anarchy? I don't think so, but maybe I'm wrong.

 

[grahamiam]

we're already in anarchy as a result of killing the byz. see mp's turnlog.

 

[Bede]

Sounds like Lenin is already on the train, might as well let him off in Trondheim. Go Big Red, Go!

 

[grahamiam]

any more opinions? otherwise, i switch to commie tonight

 

[Pentium]

Make it Commie then. Some good cities at the front will help us greatly.

 

[MeteorPunch]

We won't be able to cash-rush with commie, but Ragnar is a crazy guy. No cash-rushing armies might hurt us too much. I'm for staying Republic, only for that fact.

 

[Pentium]

Could we make a Redpublic?

 

[grahamiam]

I'm with MP for Republic. That makes it 2 to 2. Need barbslinger and Sesn to weigh in. If they don't today, then I'll flip a coin tonight

 

[grahamiam]

Nothing much to report. We revolted back to Republic as I flipped heads, otherwise, quiet. Just trying to get the spt rate up to a decent level in the capitol and other core towns. This is very important as we need more Zerks if we're going to close this out. Also, we are positioned pretty well to smack France around, but be careful as France and England have an MPP.

 

[Bede]

Got it. Play tomorrow.

Souinds like it is time to take on the wives.

 

[Bede]

Signed a mututal protection pact with the wife and tried to get the ex back into court after the coal deal expired. She wouldn't take the bait, the b****.

There lots of open cities for her to attack triggering the protection agreement with Joan as long as we don't cross into her territory.

There may still be some areas that are exposed to attack but have no counter available to take them right back. I shifted troops to the west to tr and take care of some of that, as I didn't want to lose too many cities.

There are two galleons off the coast of England's home island with armies on board.

I was relunctant to feed the wife's appetite for research so did not renew the Dyes deal as she wanted too many luxuries in exchange.

There were no signs of sicientific advances towards infantry. We may want to rush to Espionage though.

Hehe

Guys, I think I'm supposed to be up now. Unfortunately, I'll be in Belgrade until Sunday (watching Eurobasket, as it appers Slovenia is on a good way to be the champion ), and won't be able to play. So I ask for a swap.

 

[barbslinger]

I can't get to this unti lSunday either. I'm just back from one trip and flying out to Chicago on Sunday morning. I have to spend time with the lady today.

 

[barbslinger]

I can play tomorrow in the pm. Time to skirmish. Pentium, if you can grab it though I would appriciate playing Tuesday, which is boozeday, he-he.

 

[barbslinger]

Sorry guys. I can't play until Thursday. I'm swapped with tech sheets to produce.

 

[Pentium]

OK, I got it.

 

[Pentium]

I declared on the second turn. Lizzie captured 2 cities (oops, one too much) and triggered MPP.

I easily took our continent and several small islands (thanks to well set-up armies), however I had serious difficulties with th larger island between us and England.

I lost the Gemtown, but manged to raze several English homeland cities.

However, I made a big mistake leaving Galleons without protection. Simply wasn't used to MoW's. I lost a couple of armies that way .

And the save:
