MA (24/16) vs. TOW ((6)/14) fortified in a metro, with a radar tower, and maybe Civil Defense, could get ugly.

Solution: use cash to rush Artys, and cover with the TOW army.

Do we have a save to go from? I'd take it ...

Tubby's post #851. The save is off the screen to the right.

 

[Tubby Rower]

B, do you have the save or should I play a "few more"? We have a couple of weeks and this might last longer than we think that it might.

 

[jb1964]

I think w/o a clear "I got it" the next set of turns are up in the air.

Tubbs, BeF or anyone else, do you want to toss up an "I got it"?

 

[Tubby Rower]

I got it. Will play a "few more" during lunch

 

[jb1964]

Well, let me know when you're done 'cause I'm free this evening and tomorrow to further the cause by a handful of turns.

<<<SAVE>>>

Not much more happened. Caesar is clearing the English Oil island for us. Japs re-declared . War happiness . Japs do have 2 sources of oil on their sole city on the Viking island.

Two tank armies and a TOW army are in England. She's sending lots of units at us. I suggest that we get the two tank armies there and use our bombers to bomb the English TOW's & Marines then take them down with the armies.

I got us a foothold on the Viking island. He still has rifles.

We could end our alliance with Rome and make peace with England by swapping computers for Ecology and we would still get 392 G & 54 gpt. But we need to take her out soon.

We need to start thinking about Rome. His oil is right between Cumea and Neapolis. That might be a nuke that takes him down.

 

[eldar]

I can pick this up too

 

[Tubby Rower]

Just so you guys know I'm not a good warmonger. So I hope that some of you guys can kick a little butt with some tanks

 

[jb1964]

This is my "got it" for as many turns as I can do in about and hour.

Should be a bout 1.

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

I'll go after Jb

 

[jb1964]

Three turns in...

The Save is at the bottom. The SAVE has not been posted to the SGoTM Submission page because I couldn't get the SG-TM Sub page to load.


1600 AD
We have beachheads on the English mainland and what was their source of oil. They have a single city there now but I doubt they&#8217;ll get that source. Now we need to make sure they don&#8217;t trade for it.
We also have a beachhead on Viking soil. The Vikings will not be hard to eliminate.
And we&#8217;re at it w/ the Japanese again but have not landed on their homeland.
MM out nearly all the entertainers.
Synthetic Fibers is 18 turns away at 30%. Entertainment is at 30% and will only go higher.
Added a few combat settlers to the build order.
Very , very good job ripping up the English countryside. Found London again.

1605 AD
Last English city on tundra/oil island destroyed.
Bombed out English rubber.
Making an attempt to destroy Liverpool w/ bombing and tank army.
Two of the three armies are healing this turn.
Can&#8217;t rush arty as there is no spare money to do it.

IBT: Greece and Rome go in against the Viking ending the trade embargo. The AI&#8217;s are exploring the N&S most edges of the maps.

1610 AD
Captured Trondheim. Will sell a few items and then burn it.
Liverpool falls and we pick off some stray, beat-up English TOWs and marines.
Up science rate a little bit to try and get finished w/ research.
Take the Japanese island city of Karasjok.

IBT: Japan and the Vikes stop the hostilities.
Many English TOWs are running about and a few land on one of our islands.

1615 AD
Bombed and killed off English TOWs.
Let units heal.

 

[Tubby Rower]

I posted it to the site for you... its here if it really matters which I don't think that it does.

EDIT :: nice job btw. I was jsut holding out for the longest time.

 

[Minute Man]

I'd have picked this up sooner, but I thought Beorn had it. If we're going free-for-all, I can go after Admiral K (or pretty much anytime this week).

 

[Admiral Kutzov]

got it. look for save wed.

 

[Tubby Rower]

yeah the structure is breaking down underneath the weight of the spam.... So if you see this thread without a got it and have time..... post a "got it" and play as many as you can.

Please post a got it... we don't want our extremely quick finish date to be questioned.

 

[Beorn-eL-Feared]

Indeed, sorry I said so and forgot. That's down 3rd to my worst things forgotten last week, behind paying my beer bill to catch a bus and rubbing my nose for 10 minutes in the shower.
