Rhye's and Fall of the Triumvirates

[Imperator Knoedel]

It is still not too late to extend mercy to me.

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

I did think about it long and hard, but my phalanxes want blood sorry! Also you have 2 warriors left in Dilli. That isn't enough to save you now!

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Yes it would be enough for Tigranes' units alone!

 

[Tigranes]

Teamwork is a powerful thing. It allows to turn impossible into inevitable.

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Yesssssss, so I don't see why you wouldn't want to work together with me against Persia?

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

Oh yes, without my units it couldn't be so. But he controls one of my phalanxes now, so with that on top of the other units warriors alone stand no chance really! Good bit of teamwork indeed.

And a few days ago you were certain that you and Persia were going to steamroller the world, and now you are keen to sell Persia out?!

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

One Phalanx I could handle with a bit of luck, two is certain death.

I'm mostly keen on survival tbh.

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

But there's three (the third I think you will see this turn)

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Wait what? You can't possibly have been so monumentally stupid as to gift 3 of your 4 Phalanxes to Tigranes?

sorry guys, but there´s something i´m not getting...
last turn, i was 2 turns away from researching a new tech.
i load the current turn, and it says 7 turns away... any idea what could be the issue? can my scientists "lose" reserach points? someone might have stolen them?
in any case, shouldnt i see something like that in the events log?

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Blame Rhye, all techs just got a whole lot more expensive and will remain so until the early Middle Ages, it's scripted and part of the scenario.

oh, didnt know that! thanx for the clarification

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

They cannot be stolen but with events on there is a loss event something along the lines of 'your scientists discoveries have lead to dead ends'. It might be that which shows up in the events log if you actually 'lost' research. If it is just slowing of research it is probably what imp said.

 

[Tigranes]

Knoedel is right -- one has to finish teching by turn 74 or else techs get more expensive. With DoC I think it is turn 80. Not sure why this was implemented in the first place.

Knoedel can take a back sit now and enjoy our reports here for a time being. He only managed to build one Elephant camp during the last 74 turns , very laid back Fast Workers he got! Indus Valley Civilization was replaced with Semitic one. Lets get ready for those Aryans.

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

Acadameia as knoedal is out for the time being I need your email address for when I play the turn.

sure, PM sent

 

[Imperator Knoedel]

Actually I built a bunch of farms to within one turn of completion thinking that I could finish them once Persia has saved me from the invading hordes.

 

[ReallyEvilMuff]

Where is the save? There are only 3 of us now and it's been a while since I last had it...

 

[Tigranes]

Resent Turn 76.

 

[Tigranes]

After much investigation of 3 possible locations for the turn I am hereby informing you that turn is on you, o great Pericles!
