The Eagle Has Landed
Quite an exciting finish as I anticipated.I got my ship built and launched ok but the Sioux came on fast with some power spaceship part building.They were going to get off a faster ship.I had 2 diplomats so I contacted and they immediately decllared war.I then sent a rifle to pillage and the 2 dips went in for sabotage.Got 1 ss part and a harbor.Then,when the Sioux attacked and killed the rifle,all the other civs came to my support and declared war on the evil Sioux cuz they had fired the first actual shot
.I used the next 3 turns to rush spys which went on numerous SS part sabotage missions.I was able to draw off the resources and their SS was left uncompleted.It was sure nice to reach that 6 years left turn when I knew for sure I was home landing in 1927
