TMcC01 - Narcissistic Nehru (C3C, AWM)

I say we go with Babylon. So what if we can't build walls or barracks fast enough and get crushed beneath the toes of the Roman legions, Mayan Javelineers, while being pillaged by Greek Hopolites and hordes of EKindu warriors. At least we will have books on military strategy, that will tell us exactly what to do if we only had troops, and temples to pray our dying prayers in.

Greebley (who really hopes he is joking and not predicting the future :arrow: )

Go ahead and start us, Handy. I would say random order with 5-6 players as a max. Unless Barbslinger has strong objections, I say we try out the Babylons for the fun of it.

TMcC,
We tried exploring last game. I was thinking of not exploring this game so we can compare. I would like to figure out which is the better strategy in AW because I really do not know (though the diff level may affect this - I wouldn't want to explore in deity or Sid).

I still have yet to play Rome and the mighty legionaires. Ready when you guys are.

Been watching, and just wanted to say that was a great come back y'all. Truthfully I thought you were going to loose a month ago. Hope to lurk your next one.

Care to join us in an AWE game where we'll get a way too early GA, probably miss the GL by a turn, have to pray our walls go up in time and hold on for dear life?

I'll post a start & play order Friday or more likely Saturday. Hope Barbslinger is not too mad we are playing the feared Babylonians.

Greebley, T_McC, Barbslinger. Please rsvp in the thread below. I asked Ted Jackson to join us - waiting to hear back. I think we keep a short roster for this one so no one "loses the feel" of the game by missing too many turns.

LOL! I just started my FIRST SG game, and trust me it is not as difficult as AWE on Diety. I'm not sure how we'll I'm going to do there, let alone with a group of pros like y'all.

I go on a trip for 3 days and the game is won? Damn, I didn't even get to get a taste of major offensives and razings . Anyway, I'd like to join the AWE game if you'll take me (sorry about having to be skipped all those times).

Yes, once you "breakout" in an AW game, it does tend to go very quickly, and when we stopped research and started buying cavalry for cash it went really fast.

Sorry Yom, but I filled the spot with Ted Jackson when I didn't hear back. my bad.

I'll reserve you a spot for the next one and send you a PM before we start so you get right of first refusal. Again sorry about the mix up, I was just anxious to get going.
