SGOTM 01 - Team One

[blastoidstalker]

Just had to show y'all this one

I've been thinking about the team work that we have developed since turn one and I have to say that this has been one of the funnier teams. I cannot wait until we are finished and can lurk other threads. I suppose that they (the other teams) are just waiting to lurk ours too. Well, they can when we have won either by domination, diplomacy or any other means. They, and I include us in 'they' (or maybe I don't - it does get confusing), will just have to wait until after it is over.

Another thing, should we reduce the number of turns from 20 to 16 or 10? I don't think that this should change our game play one little bit.

Hey guys. Been lurking in this thread since the start. (I picked a few to follow, so I have kept my mouth shut so far.) Just wanted to say congrats on a great game. I enjoyed your strategy and comments in the thread. You were my choice for the win from the start. (I picked up some great game play tips along the way as well.)

Great job guys. It will be interesting to see how things play out with the other groups.

Let's all plan to come back here to post commentary on our game vs. others as we see them.

Mutineer, can you go back to your post on the maintiance thread and remove the specifics on when and how we won. I do not want a team that hasn't seen that to beat us by 1 turn because they know excatly when we finished.
thanks

I did not put when, only type of victory with out any specifics.

Sorry if it cause any problem. I never play in this competiton and when Graph was clearly show that we finifhed it never even come to me to keep it secret.

No worries, I gues they figured out exact time from the graph. I have gotten about halfway through CFR who some see as a potential rival. I am not sure yet. They are much more obssessive micromanagers than we are and sometimes go two pages MM stuff before they get to another turn. But they made a big mistake in cutting off producing war chariots to soon and lost a battle for Moscow. Hopefully this is big enough mistake to take them out of the running.

Fistful of Dynamite Has a chance from teams that reach resonable time.
They are more advanced Sci vise but did not start to attack anyone yet.

If they manage to pull off PA in time they migth get there befor as.
Now they have target they change there thinking complitly, they were wandering around with out focus for a few sets. So, they migth pull it off.

There couple of teams in very early stage that are in good position. (about 200AD and even BC), but it is very dificult to say as it is just to early.

.

I agree and think they are the only one of the quick teams that has a good chance so there thread is worth lurking. Also most groups think we won in 1610 not 1622. This may actualy be to our advantage if teams rush a bit to much and get themselves in trouble.

 

[blastoidstalker]

Lurking around I do not think fistfull of Dynamite will make it earlier than us unless they do something exceptional. Short Straw has a good chance, but it is not a sure thing. CFR Is well ahead of us, having taken out saladin before 1200 AD and halfway through the Incan at that time.

I am working on writting the second half of the first spoiler and plan to end it at the founding of optics.

CFR got message about we finished and did not make one of our mistakes, researching and building useless Knights.
2Knight = 3 maces shield wize and maces are mach better in taking cities.
