[eddfire3]

Well, i was building the GL for the culture it will give, but if you have other things in mind by all means change it!

Do we have the monarchy tech?

[dalgo]

You have to turn down the science slider first (so that you have excess gold) to trade.

Thanks for the tip - I didn't know that.

 

[killercane]

Do we have the monarchy tech?

Read my previous post. Next player will be able to get it immediately from Osman and revolt right away.

 

[eddfire3]

soo...who goes next? Who ever comes to the thread?

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

I'll be pretty busy for about 7-8 days starting tuesday (tomorrow), I'll have to wait until then I think. Perhaps Khan would like to give it a blow

 

[Own]

Just a remeinder: You MUST read previous discussions and be a part of discussions for the next turn set to play. This means answering questions like what we're researching, government, etc.

 

[Khan_Asparuh]

I'm out of civ 'til the end of the week, but will surely bite monday CET...

 

[killercane]

Own do you want to handle the next few? It would probably be good to keep this thread active so lurkers might get sucked in.

 

[Own]

Never thought I'd have to bump an open SG, but here we are. Don't want it on page two, nobody will see it.

Don't care about play level, just take 10 and leave.

 

[dalgo]

I looked back through the log and the last 6 players were:

Own
Beorn
Khan
dalgo
killercane
eddfire3

So I think the next turn should be taken by - Own.

 

[Khan_Asparuh]

The Khan can only play when his new PC gets delivered. I expect it in a week or so, but if the roster up there does a small harassing session on Dell it could go faster. Would you, guys?

 

[Own]

This is open SG, no roster. I'll play tomorrow if nobody takes it.

 

[TimBentley]

Okay, I've got some extra time, so I got it.

[killercane]

Sounds like the next player is going to have some fun.

 

[Khan_Asparuh]

The lands are filled but I see our settler factory offline while we need to ICS... I'd change it, along with a few other high food cities that can pull 4 turn settlers (Camu and Wheaty City).
I would strike India first before WE and then Ottomans before sipahi.

 

[Own]

I really like this idea, so I'll keep this moving. GOt it,

Remember, you don't have to even have a demigod victory, heck, not even a cheiftan one, cause SG's make everything easier.

This is from memory, so I might be wrong

Pre-turn- Why do we want to attack India? The Ottomans have ivory which we can quickly hook up, not to mention they are in the way of the ToA, which is THE necessary wonder. Move some GS in position to attack India to Ottomania.

1. WTH? A japanese galley RoPed us by the galley itself attacking the warrior of a city, thank god the warrior won. I got it on camera and this babies goin to SOTD.

Edit: Pasted the prnt scrn, but it appears it wait two seconds, so I lost it .

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

If you still have the same turn (exactly) and replay the IBT, it should do the same again. I read of another case of this somewhere and it did consistently attack with a galley on some IBT, for whoever would load the save.
