Ruff07 - Poor Marvin, but really ... who cares?

[Eddie_SBC]

Hi there! This is Eddie your the Shipboard Computer coming to you from a small island somewhere off the coast of I have no clue-land. Made peace! That isn't any fun. Personally, I was hoping that Hannibal would get his can kicked and would have to trade Marvin for peace - now that would have been interesting.

New Lurker: Nice idea about the HHGTTG-theme, with Marvin and Eddie and all. I love it. Suggestions for "pepping up" reports: Include some guide entries (old or invented, new).

Well as always there was not much to do this turnset as we are hardly in a tech position to go on the offensive!!

Here is how things lie. Hopefully once we have Printing press we can tarde it for Guilds from Saladin with the plan of boosting our economy by going down to Bnaking then perhaps economics.

After 1 turn of Guilds Self research we pick up Guilds from Saladin and start on banking.

And after presing enter enough I stop when Banking comes in. Unsurprisingly we are still scarily behind in Techs.

This was the nearest thing to excitement that occured!!

Lied. Save later:

I WROTE SOME POEMS:

OH THE SETTLING OF ABDERA- IT BURNS ME IN DEEPEST PLACES UNKNOWN
ABDERA A DISGUSTING CITY FULL OF SINS AND DEBAUCHERY AND BUGGERY
ABDERA IS COLDER THAN I COULD WRITE

I THINK ABOUT OUR DISCOVERIES AND I AM DISGUSTED
TO THINKWE COULD FALL SO FAR BEHIND
EATING AND LIVING IN OUR OWN MUCK WHILE THE COMMUNIST PARADISE OF MALI
CASTS ME ASIDE

SALADIN EXTENDS TRUST TO ME
I DO NOT KNOW WHY HE SHAKES MY UNWARMING HAND
I HATE HIS CONTACT

(we get no tech splash screens)

WE DISCOVER ECONOMICS TO MAKE WAY FOR THE DISGUSTING CORPORATE MACHINE
ONE DAY THIS WORLD SHALL BE CONSUMED
AND I SHALL MAKE SOMEWHAT OF A SMILING MOTION BY CURLING THE ENDS OF MY LIPS UPWARDS
BUT IT WILL LOOK MORE LIKE DISGUST

I CANNOT GO ON AND I WILL HAVE TO RETIRE
THIS WORLD REALLY
REALLY
SUCKS

IF I COULD MOVE AWAY FROM THIS
CARTHAGIAN CAPITALIST WORLD
I WISH TO GO TO MALI
WHERE I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT AND BE EQUAL WITH THOSE SNOBS

Lurkers comment:

I'm a genuine people personality... You can tell, can't you? *sigh*

Good game.

Just throwing this out there, but to end the revolt:
Enter WB
Enter Map Mode
Scroll over to Territory
Click Russia, then click on the city

Revolt will be done (IIRC)

 

[Rex rgis of Ter]

I'd have gotten it if there was a save...

Hi there! This is Eddie your the Shipboard Computer coming to you from a small island somewhere off the coast of I have no clue-land. At least the island that I am on is slightly warmer than that one shown. Does anyone know where this game is heading?

[Rex rgis of Ter]

Got it. Will play tommorow as I'm up in another SG.

I've been reading the Aeneas recently. It's a very simple book about the founding of Rome. The Queen of Carthage, Dido knew that the descendants of Aeneas, or the Romans, would destroy Carthage. I found it very interesting.

It turns out Augustus is paranoid, or he has all his cities like this. I am teching towrads Rifles.

Spoiler :

We have muskets, Replacable Parts, and now are going for Riflery. Sally wanted to trade Eco for Music and 50 gold. I said no to the pompous jerk. What victory will be pursuing?
