Should SAM missile batteries be built too. If we keep stealing, eventually we are going to fail & start a war. If we have ICBMs so does the Iroquois....

CIv Assist II shows that they have 3 sources of UO2 ore. One is definately connected via rail to Kahnawake (airport) on an small off-shore island near their homeland.

Yeah, my Mom in Charleston, SC said that they hit 99°F and > 90% humidity for heat indexes of > 110°F.
We are going to Ocean Isle Beach, NC just north of the South Carolina border. It's a nice family beach without all of the crowds. But it is close enough to Myrtle Beach that you could drive in for the day. Nice 4 BR beach-front house for $2100/ week. Divide that by 3 families & you end up with a reasonable priced vacation.

I figured that you'd be defecting to the X-team. They are the spam kings!
Pre-turn:Noticed we pay arabs 16gpt for incense... canceled the deal and renewed but giving them miniaturization instead.
nobody has anything worthy stealing.
T4 1878AD Arabs days are almost over... Iro's are taking over their island and Arabs left with 3 cities only. Stole Genetics from Spain and sold it to Iro's
T6. 1882AD. Spain has stealth. I guess we don't need it
T7. 1884AD Spain built Cure for Cancer
T9 1888AD. Expired wines/rubber deal with spain. Renewed it again for 1840Gold
T10 1890AD. As analyst predicted Arabs were destroyed by Iro's. Our RoP with Spain expired and i didn't renew.
PostTurn: During my turns I built SAM Missile Batteries and transit systems. We have 4 ICBMs in our arsenal.
Currently building ICBMs in most of our cities as a pre-built for the next part whenever tech becomes available.
If not oh well... we will have more power to burn AIs towns.
Suggest we use them the very last turn before last space ship part is built

I just checked. SS parts can NOT be rushed. We'll need ICBM's being built in all cities to hopefully get one on the turn that Robotics is learned.....
Minute Man
Prince
OK, got it. Will try to play either tomorrow night or Saturday.

All this talk of the seaside... well just as well I'm down at my parents' (near the sea - but a lot cooler in these parts!) this weekend

Should we switch to Commie due to the stealing issue must work for the last tech? If the Iroquois hit it right, they'll get the Stasis chamber built before we can steal Robitics if we fail on the first attempt.

Not sure. I thought we could try stealing again if the first attempt fails, but I'm not 100% sure about that (I haven't used espionage much). Well, assuming we have enough money, that is.Tubby Rower said:
I'm at work, so I can't check the game right now. How close are we getting to that final part? Is razing the Iro capital (probably with the help of some of dman's nuclear toys) a possibility? If so, we probably shouldn't bother switching. If not, and the outcome of the game is riding on that one die roll, then maybe we should.
MMan said:
I think (think) when you fail at a steal, the chances for a successful steal that turn drop to 0%, at least for that civ. Then over the next few turns the chances creep back to normal. Does that make sense? So you can't keep trying till you succeed; when a try fails, you gotta wait a bit.
I once saw, I don't remember where, a suggestion that trying a steal every 4 turns is pretty effective; that's what I've done ever since.
Somebody probably knows if I'm wrong about this...
