SGOTM 17 - Xteam

Bad advice on my part to split the landing. Surprises me that he could get units up to attack in 2 turns before we reinforced. But sounds like you adapted well. I am at the beach for the week so i cant look at the save. Sounds like Russia is pretty well killed? CP are you going to bring the game home?
 
Try to look at save late tonight and post a general plan of what I'm going to try to do.

EDIT:

Looked at save.

Htadus has done the heavy lifting, and Church has accomodated by researching Democracy.

Don't see any reason that I can't finish up tomorrow.

Only question I have for the team is whether there is any need to try to do so in the minimum number of turns possible -- that is, should I try to get it done one turn sooner by taking a risk of it taking an extra turn or two. Are we in any meaningful close competition?

Plan to play in about 12 hours, unless someone voices concerns here in the interim.
 
Turn 253: Advance

T254: Raze Newcastle and advance

T255: Raze Hades Hammer, just to assuage my frustation a bit, then raze London, Coventry, and York.

Game should be over, nothing interesting to report, except that I'm not getting a Conquest Victory box on screen. Does that happen only IBT?

Save is below. Haven't reported to Central. Wondering if we're supposed to conquer barbs as well.

Save: http://forums.civfanatics.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=353960&stc=1&d=1372183337

Sure would like to know how other teams apparently did so much better.

Yes, I think we have to change turn for the victory to register.

Do not think we need conquer the Barbs. Here is the goal from the Maintenance thread:
To be eligible for an award (Laurels or Spoons) you must win the game any way you can.

Laurels' priority will go to the team that acheives the fastest Conquest victory. If not enough teams win by conquest to award all 4 awards then eligible teams can win the laurels based on the highest power-rating at the time of victory. Wooden Spoons will as always go to the eligible team finishing (winners ONLY this time) with the lowest final score.

Seeing the state of one of the saves uploaded in the thread, I'd say you didn't quite go all-out on conquest, you have a LOT of gold by the end and not much whip anger.

Not an easy game, it's nice to see every team will still pull out a win (PR and TSR aren't done but shouldn't be far away).
 
:thanx: CP, Good job team.

Wasn't sure we would finish this one. :)
Nice work Htadus and CP, you pulled a lot of the load on this one. :goodjob:

edit - as soon as we hear from Alan or Swede, we can start exploring the other threads. :scan:

Congrats on the victory!!! :goodjob:

Feel free to browse other threads, just don't post in the ones where the games are still on-going) (Thats Phoenix Rising and Shawshank Redemption we're still waiting for).
 
Congratulations on the game :goodjob:
 
Thanks MP.

Been busy myself, and it has been so hot here (computers running really too hot), had to go to my auxiliary control center (my basement) where it is much cooler. :mischief:
 
Hi X-team

I would like to play with you guys again on SGOTM18
I will be away on holiday with the family from July 30 - Aug 8, so I'll miss some of the pregame discussion. :sad:

Now I'll go and figure out what the game is all about - it does not look that easy at first glance.... :crazyeye:
