Sw4 - Waterworld C3c1.22

AW...you lost an archer on a hill to him...I mean come on! ;) Actually, I should keep quiet, just in case I end up getting conquered by Conan. :rolleyes:

I will see for myself how tough he really is...tomorrow.
 
Pachelbel used to carry his canon with him everywhere he went. Anybody know why?
 
:hmm: Canon D? Was it because he was chased out of Stuttgart by the French? Or was it because he played in some many different churches? OK I give up...:blush:
 
i agree.
my father died for all of your sins, i'll just have to do the same.
but Conan is not my fault. i saw some of his ancestor in bede's turn!!!!
must be his fault!!!!
(pull out my scissors and threaten a rare DaVinci manuscript)....(then run and hide beneath the kitchen table)

NOTICE THE UPDATED ROSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

----eldar - probably @ the Interpid Fox having a pint, waiting your turn.
----tubby rower - escaped to the InLaws.... as if thats an excuse.
----whomp - squizzed in by common consent. YOU HAD BETTER COMPLY, or its the ninja for you.
----Bede - got us up and running.
----soul_warrior - found out conan is out there. kept running.
----Admiral Kutzov - just didnt get us Rep. slowed down running.
----IroquoisPlisken - should build some rax? UP!!
----DBear - warming up in the south corner. ON DECK

@ SW - :rotfl: Is SW3 over yet?
nope :D
but i am already thinking (there i go again.... thnking. what was i thinking??) about SW5.
lots of options. but my fav is play as Rome\Persia. see how fast we can get a conquest win. but i'll start it only after SW3 is done with!
(if youre interested, PM me. maybe i'll start a PBEM game?)

'Cause it was really dangerous on the streets of 17th century Germany. ;) :lol:
 
Oh great SW. Bede will be thrilled. He dishes an easy layup in Trikos that I botch. He follows me in Tomo where I give him zero buchets for his offensive. Now you want the poor guy to follow me again? I would rather squeeze between you or AK so I can yell at one of ya. BTW you're up in Arabia. Just close the deal. K?
 
Seriously wasn't he forced to leave Stuttgart when the French attacked in...umm....umm...1670?
BTW I was going to say because he needed to be ready for your weddings.... ;) but since I am being led down that path for #2 I didn't think it would be a good idea.
 
tubby rower - escaped to the InLaws.... as if thats an excuse.
I'm at my parents' house. Boy is it hot in South Carolina.... Virginia has much better weather!

Still reading but I'll be in & out of the forums when I can
 
Pre-turn – I’m guessing that barb 2 NE of Rotterdam is Conan. Switch Eindhoven from warrior to worker. We need more workers right now, but if barbs come, I’ll switch back.
Give England Philo for Math and 50 gold. Philo to America for 10 gold and 5 gpt.

IBT – Conan moves towards our Archer. He just sealed his fate…

1475 (1) – Our archer fires a volley of arrows at Conan and…wins without taking a scratch. Uh huh. Sure. Conan was REALLY terrible. :rolleyes:
Ok. There’s a settler here, but I’m not sure where it’s supposed to go…considering it’s position, I’m going to guess it was headed towards the SE (below Eindhoven). Increase Lux to 10% so Amsterdam doesn’t riot.

1450 (2) – Rotterdam worker->worker. Bedehoven warrior->worker. Rename archer to Conan’s Canon.

I decide we have too much money. Build embassy in Washington for 31 gold.
Size 1, with an entertainer?!? Not growing, one spear guarding with a spear due in 8 turns…no resources or luxes.
Build another embassy in London for 53 gold. Size 4 grow in 10, 1 horse, 4 incense, 2 reg spears guarding, and the Colossus due in 4. 100% science.

IBT – English warrior appears north of the Hague.

1425 (3) – Rush the barracks in Amsterdam for 1 citizen. Otherwise I would have had to raise Lux.

IBT – And another English warrior appears…at least they’re not in a stack, so I THINK they’re just exploring…

1400 (4) – Amsterdam barracks->archer.

IBT – As I hoped, the English warriors leave (well, one leaves, the other heads East). The Maya are building ToA.

1375 (5) – have to hire an entertainer in Amsterdam.

IBT – Barb appears RIGHT behind the settler. English are building the Pyramids. And complete the Colossus in London.

1350 (6) – nada.

IBT – the Inca, Aztecs, and America all have MM now.

1325 (7) – Rotterdam worker->barracks. Do some rearranging in Amsterdam so the Archer is still built next turn, it doesn’t grow to size 6, and so we can still have a scientist (Rotterdam is only size 2 now).
Found Arnhem ->worker. None of the trades for MM are really worth it (CoL for MM and gold for all 3), and since we don’t really need MM just yet, I’ll wait to see if some other trade turns up.

IBT – BARB ATTACK!! Ok, it’s not that bad, but a horse appears right outside of Bedehoven, that warrior moves north, and a galley appears by our curragh exploring the Incan west coast.

1300 (8) – Amsterdam archer->settler (can be changed to another archer). Bedehoven worker->barracks. Kill horse without taking a hit, and promote to vet. Raise lux to 20%. Move warrior in Eindhoven towards barb warrior.

IBT – An English warrior and an American scout appear. A barb galley sinks our curragh.

1275 (9) – Eindhoven worker->worker. Warrior from Bedehoven kills barb warrior. Send workers to hook up Dyes.

1250 (10) – Utrecht barracks->archer.

Dyes will be connected in 2 turns, and so will the settler in Amsterdam (which can be switched to an archer if we’d rather start the attack earlier). Amsterdam will grow in 1 turn, though, so keep an eye on its happiness. The warrior by Bedehoven is going to find the barb camp in the south. I believe it is in the forest 2 SE of him.
The Aztecs, Incas, and Americans all have MM and are all willing to trade it for CoL. Aztecs have the most gold (50).

And now that I think of it, Bedehoven should probably be switched to a worker.

Strategical thinking here. All the initial archer rush really needs to take out is New York. If we keep Abe east of the mountains, we can expand up the west coast towards the iron.
 
Like the way you think there AK.
Did you see the DC pic ? The only citizen is a clown. Not sure but Abe doesn't seem to be tinkin' real good.
SW--Can I request following DBear? We haven't even gone through the rotation yet. I may be forced to join another SG and it's likely Bede will be in it and I'm sure he doesn't want to MM after me all the time. Bede sorry but I got nothing to do for a month or so.
 
Bonjour mes amis - je suis en France.
Greetings, friends - I'm in France.

France have just drawn 0-0 with Switzerland. The joys of WiFi bring me to CivFanatics, meanwhile. And the laptop has Civ on it, though it's a Mac so Vanilla only :(
 
I think that Boston ought to be Dutch too. But that's just me.
 
New York (renamed New Amsterdam) and Boston should definitely belong to William of Orange (my Boston Irish relatives would shoot me if they heard that one).

With his cities limited to all those floodplains to the east Abe will have no production centers.
 
----eldar - in france? FRANCE? WHY?
----tubby rower - using a mac. inconsiderrate or what?
----Bede - "I will pull the trigger till it goes CaLickkkk"
----soul_warrior - as usual, fail to finish my turns in time. tomorow, i promise!
----Admiral Kutzov - is Igor OK?
----IroquoisPlisken - done some MM
----DBear - UP
----whomp - ON DECK as requested

ok, were up to 8 players now.
looks abit crowded,
post asap when your turn gets there.
 
----tubby rower - using a mac. inconsiderrate or what?
Hey, that's blasphemy...I am NOT using a mac. Although i do have a mac sticker on my trash can at work. Just at my parents house for a long Easter weekend...
 
Looking at the pic in the post, either someone has gotten nukes way too early or a volcano erupted in American territory....I bet if we leave it to Abe to clean up, it would still have orange goo into the late 1900's (AD).
 
Got it, will play tomorrow.
