SGOTM 07 - The Real Ms. Beyond

hmm - germany is a pain - pity we didn't take him out earlier. We aren't going to win this event but lets finish. Any suggestions for the best way to tech to space? The method I see talked about is to tech to the big items first so that your last tech is only for a small part.

Yeah I could play tonight.. Any plans other than to continue on with the space race? Space elevator is worth a try I think. So my preferred tech order would be after radio computers and robotics. Sounds good? Other that that, I think there's not that much drama happening (unless something unexpected). I could play something like 15-20 turns depending on how things go..

Computers and robotics sounds a fine plan. Good luck!

chmoosi · Aug 10, 2008

Played a bit more than I originally planned (now at 1836AD). Researched computers, fiber optics (built the internet) and robotics. Current situation:

Techwise:

Turnset went smoothly. Cathy is our main rival in the space race.. (no news) Sally declared on Lizzy (also Lizzy demanded for radio at one point. I decided to give in as she's harmless regarding space victory) but didn't see much of that action. Probably nothing spectacular happened. Oh, also Monty killed Mansa.

I traded radio to Fred for about 1200 when the money got short. Malabar lost population as we built a lab and got more sickness..

Next plans: To build spaceship, to build spaceship and to build spaceship. We will be unable to build the space elevator in Malabar and Asoka didn't at least yet get hip to it (he's building fighters fer chrissakes, now that we got flight from the internet.. didn't really plan for that. Hopefully he'll get to his senses soon). Next techs I think will be refrigeration --> genetics.. We should leave ecology for the last as SS life support is fastest to build of the late parts.. With Fission there's a good chance we get it from the net, so no point researching that at least until we get refrigeration...

Here is your Session Turn Log from 1750 AD to 1836 AD:

OK, great. The Internet was an inspired move. I agree with heading for genetics and hoping to pick up Fission from the internet.

Kodii when do you plan to play?

Kodii · Aug 11, 2008

I have set up CIV on my spiffy new laptop, but I am getting errors with HOF, so I will wait to get home to play today. Seems like our path is pretty straight forward, and I plan to build spaceship, to build spaceship and to build spaceship.

T0 1836AD - I return Asoka's Aluminum and switch to SS Docking Bay; Research set to Refrigeration

T2 1840AD - A UN Emancipation vote passes, we are now out of Serfdom; our oil is sabotaged

IBT - Asoka offers one of his oil, so I accept until we reconnect ours

T5 1846AD - Refrigeration in, Genetics due in 7

T7 1850AD - We get Fission from the Internet

T10 1856AD - We get an Great Artist who is settled

T12 1860AD - Genetics in; Asoka begins the Stasis Chamber in Delhi

He still hasn't begun the Space Elevator, but we don't need it. I can play to the end, since we only need Fission and Ecology, and need to finish the Stasis Chamber, Engine and Life Support.

Feel free to play on. Just make sure that you let him finish the tech so that you get first bite at building the parts. We don't want him starting the critical part in a 15 hammer per turn city.

I tried that... but when it came to my turn, he had already started it in Delhi.

Kodii · Aug 11, 2008

T13 1862AD - Composites in from the Internet

T18 1872AD - Free Religion passes

T20 1876AD - Fusion in, I begin the SS Engine in Malabar

IBT - Cyrus completes the Space Elevator after Asoka FINALLY starts it in Tokyo

T24 1884AD - Ecology in, Asoka begins SS Life Support in Tokyo, due in 6

T26 1888AD - Free Speech passes

T30 1896AD - VICTORY!!!

I have attached the save before victory.

Horay! Nicely finished off.

Final Stats (if anyone cares to see):

AlanH · Aug 11, 2008

Well done, Ms Beyond :goodjob:

You can read the other threads now, but don't post in the one that's still playing.

Your final save will appear on the Progress page when we post the results.

Kodii · Aug 11, 2008

Congratulations team!

Although I do not believe that our ranking is much higher than before (at least its not a Wooden Spoon!), I think we've improved a lot in terms of organization and playing more simply.

As usual, the RNG was not particularly kind, but I think we managed the bump this time around better than in the past. Great job everyone!

Congrats on beating deity.

chmoosi · Aug 11, 2008

Yay!

Nice work, RMB!! It's been fun watching you finish this one off.

Jabah · Aug 12, 2008

I am back from my week end, and happy to see that we did manage to fiish in time and with panache.

Good job everyone

Congrats on the victory, RMB! It has been interesting watching you work through the space race. Nice move to build the Internet.
