Now Is The Future!

The french are starting to hit back. They went 4-4 with odds of 70%, 60%, 60% and 20% (frigate v ironship). So, currently, I would sum it up as "Indians are not happy campers". But it is not over yet.

A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon.

If anybody sent the game to me on Sunday then I didn't get it. My computer rebooted just as I was getting my e-mails, and I lost all my new e-mails.

 

[Dazz_G]

I sent the turn around what probably would have been mid evening Sunday States time so I have resent it.

I have the 1715 now from Ruff_Hi. GPS within a couple of hours.

 

[Tim Ford]

There is little that can withstand a man who can conquer himself.

 

[jbieksha]

I forgot to mention. The annual Haj now goes through Russia.

1735 to France(s)

 

[ruff_hi]

status update?

 

[Tim Ford]

I send AD 1740 to Dazz May 23rd, 2007 at 2:30pm Pacific Time. He gave me a GPS May 23rd 7:30pm my time.

Maybe DogBoy or JB went out of town for the long weekend.

 

[DogBoy]

I didn't go out of town. I sent 1740 AD along but I will send it again now.

 

[jbieksha]

1745 was sent to Tim yesterday (or so). Power graph looks interesting.

Too bad my CNN network doesn't cover this American French Indian War. They keep mentioning the colonists along with the Mingo and Miami tribes.

 

[Tim Ford]

It is quite and epic battle, one for the ages.

1755 to Tim

War Update: When the war started, I was 1, maybe 2 techs up, drafting infantry and planning to fight riflemen. I captured 2 French cities. Now, I am at least 4 techs down (inc battleships, artillery, bombers, marines) and I've been pushed out of my gains, back to my mainland and (I expect) shortly off the map all together.

I would rather have an army of rabbits led by a lion, than an army of lions led by a rabbit.

I would rather have an army of rabbits led by a lion, than an army of lions led by a rabbit.

??? Am I the rabbit or the lion, the leader or the follower ... should I take offense at this statement or ???

 

[Tim Ford]

No, You shouldn't take offense at any of the things I've been saying. They've all been quotes from Napolean and Louis XIV. They are supposed to be jokes and stupid.

I am the state.

 

[Tim Ford]

Ack!!!!!!! India Strikes back sinking two Galleons about to be upgraded. The most impressive stike happens in the south where two French destroyers are taken out by two Indian Destroyers even though the odds were in France's favor. The Battle at sea is EPIC!!!!!

Two French Battleships were able to avenge the Galleons.

Has God forgotten all I have done for him?

 

[ruff_hi]

No!! Did I leave my destroyers in range of your battleships - that was a mistake. India lost its first city on its continent but France 'forgot' to leave troops defending it.
