OB08 - Tall Poppy Syndrome

[PaulusIII]

So you will be taking the save then ssmage?

 

[ssmage]

ok, playing now.

 

[ssmage]

The report.

I'll get to the point. We should take peace with Cardith as we have no stack after Kywenthwllar(Captured it). (lost about 5 90%win odds in a row). Curly was killed by a passing illian axe, so declared natinality on Moe and Larry. Met Perp, who was ROK. Auric keeps on capturing Cardiths settelments. Teched Festivals and Masonry and half of COL. Founded Order, Built Form of the Titan. Forgot to take screenshots.

Curly was killed by a passing illian axe, so declared nationality on Moe and Larry.

That's why I usually declare nationalities on the Three Stooges immediately.

Met Perp, who was ROK.

 

[PaulusIII]

Got the save. Plan is obvious so I'll not bother you guys with it.

 

[Ozbenno]

Well I'd like to know what just happened. Did we only get one city? What have we done to prepare for war with Auric?

Anyway, have fun PaulusIII

 

[PaulusIII]

Powergraphs like this one make you lose all confidence in the end victory...

Quite frankly, I think the game is lost. Even with our strategical advantage, we're going to be behind Auric still for a long time, because with army strength as it is now I cannot see us taking him on in the short term, his score has only been growing faster than us even with us taking more Kuriotate cities. Not to mention we will have to start again with our new nation against that monster. AGAIN.

 

[ssmage]

Onto OBO9 with 0.41? I never noticed the power graph was that high. This is probably one of the only massive dangerous Illians you can see and fear.

 

[Ozbenno]

We don't want to have it out with him and see how we go?? Worth a shot I suppose, get him to sacrifice against the archer dude (can't remember his name) and attack with Curly and Moe.

Ah! But what a story we could tell if we pull it off!

 

[Ozbenno]

I'm away for the weekend, why doesn't someone start pounding on Auric so I have a good read when I get back!!

 

[ssmage]

0.41 is out. Switch and restart?

 

[Lone Wolf]

Why? The situation is getting interesting, and we've had one restart anyway.

Okay,Okay. I admit, I am a guy who likes updates. Game update and SG turns included.

 

[Ozbenno]

I agree with Lone Wolf, this game is heating up.

Who is still with us? Paulus, if you are play on.

 

[PaulusIII]

I'm sorry, Oz. Somebody else'll have to take the save if we want this game to move on because I'll be away until Monday.

We might still have a shot though... but I think the Illians are stronger than we can currently chew off. A well-placed March of the Trees might just be enough to shatter Auric's military dominance though. Perhaps an idea?

 

[Ozbenno]

Lobsterboy is now chief Illian-Smasher.

[Lobsterboy]

Aw nuts! I'm heading out of town on a business trip early tomorrow, so I may not be able to get to it until Friday.

If Lone Wolf wants to pick it up, go ahead.

 

[Ozbenno]

OK, Lone Wolf, you're UP then Lobsterboy can take it for Friday.

 

[Lone Wolf]

OK, I wanted to let Lobsterboy do the honours, but I'll play today.
