pbem 'Lambda' proposed v1.61

[Zukov]

In response to unwelcome French cultural expanison into Chinese territory, we dispatched our army to march against France several turns ago. This turn our commanders report that our city raiders have captured Paris and destroyed the hated French Empire!

There is a solitary axeman crashing around the forests.
Do not be alarmed by him.
He is scouting, after all our scouts succumbed to the creatures.
Probably no villages left to find by now, of course.

Our cities are now besieged by baa-baas.

 

[DogBoy]

Greetings to all. I am DogBoy of the Chinese and am replacing Zukov. Let me know if you had any deals with the former ruler. You can e-mail me at greeneg AT charter.net. I look forward to meeting all of you in game.

 

[bathsheba666]

Farewell Zukov.
Welcome DogBoy.

We try a little trading.

 

[bathsheba666]

Was not expecting to find any villages left.
Next turn we enter it.
Just outside a baa-baa town, as well.
An ai demanded Pottery, wiping out all my credit with them.

 

[DogBoy]

Ahh, sweet villages to give me money. Too bad it wasn't a tech, but glad it wasn't barbs.

 

[DogBoy]

This fractal is horrible. I have never played with this before. Talk about ice and tundra all over. It does create an interesting challenge though.

 

[bathsheba666]

Baa-baa towns are cropping up all over the continent

 

[semental]

gps---no kidding

 

[DogBoy]

No barbs around here. Not yet at least.

 

[bathsheba666]

I just had a reasonably promoted Axeman with 2 city strikes all but wiped out taking a baa-baa archer, and this town was on grassland.

South-west of my capital, a baa-baa town looks as if its archers will be hill-mounted....

Hail strangers, not much exciting to see to your west.

 

[bathsheba666]

Lost an axeman with two city raider promotions to a grassland baa-baa city archer.

Wow, looks like someone must have built a lot of libraries....

 

[bathsheba666]

We get all Confused, and try some trading.

 

[bathsheba666]

Happy Thanksgiving,

to the Yanks, from a turkey-free Brit.

 

[DogBoy]

Thanks! I ate much turkey yesterday. But I also ate potatoes, corn, green beans, squash, rolls, different kinds of casseroles, cookies, pumpkin and pecan pie, chicken, chips with dip, and drank lots of apple cider. Now that it's the next morning I'm hungry again.

[bathsheba666]

One of my cities has gone Hindu.

 

[DogBoy]

One of my cities has gone Hindu.

I am sorry that you have fallen under the sway of a heathen religion. At your earliest convenience you should convert to Judaism, the one and only true religion.

 

[bathsheba666]

But I am gripped by the dreaded Confuse I Am ism, so I'm not rational enough to make that decision.

===

Sorry, guys. My snafu on the saves.
Something went screwy when we went to ad from bc I think...

 

[bathsheba666]

The ai are turning ugly.
