Not much happened in the turn I had to play.
First of all our galley.

Then our javalin thrower, which I sent back, in the hope of finding barbarians.

And the worker next to Fanatazuma was done, so I had to decide what to do with that. I ordered to mine the grassland.

Then the two warriors between us and C3B. I suppose the idea was to retreat the northern warrior :rolleyes: and I don't want to start a mutiny, so I continued...only...the warrior of C3B was in the way. :undecide:

That was it already. Last thing I did was increasing luxury to 10% because Fanatazuma grew.

Then when I checked the scores I noticed something:
C3B built a temple in Brazília!

C3B had another warrior that we just bumped into. This one was use to go into out ismus, or the one that they talked about that was looking for us. They really wanted the Northern warrior to come down to calm the C3B people, so the moved one there so the could see us.
 
C3B has always been 4 culture points ahead of us yes.

About the barbs, I'm afraid our Javs won't reach them before they are destroyed. :(

Emp: Is that information you have from C3B our your own thoughts about the Warrior? I believe it is the Warrior who was visiting our borders.
 
Sorry let me charify, I know that there was a warrior that came to see our lands, that is probley it. The other warrior was the one on the mountain.
 
I would like to raise a discussion on the question about how we want to use our Javelin Throwers. Untill now we tried to hunt down some barbarians in order to get some slaves. These would be very useful. But it's very likely that the victory of our UU will trigger a Golden Age. In the SPDG IV we experienced a very good timed GA, and I think we should try to do that in our game as well. I think it's way too early for a GA right now, so that we should stop the hunting of barbs with our Javs.

Cheetah: that camp or barb group may be destroyed, but there can be more. Javs away !
Including the possiblity of slaves, C3B's sight of our javs may assert our power/intiminate them. Or it may threaten them and provoke war... A mixed bag, this one is.
 
such an issue would not cause a war. It could be used as an excuse, but would not be the cause. I say go ahead and send the javs north
 
We can't let the jav thrower stay at home because hunting barbs with them might provoke C3B.
Send them and get some slaves.
and w00t for iron:p

I think neither will occur. But the second one definitely not.
 
As long as it won't trigger a GA I think we should fight the barbs. It's just that I wasn't sure about that the GA thing against Barbarians.

How can you be so sure? We have developed a stone-headed paranoia thanks to your outbursts, and would now go ahead and violate what is admittedly only a verbal agreement to keep anything stronger than a Warrior in that area. They should attack us on principle alone if we do this, and the fact that they are still cordial with us based on our inconsistencies show that they have patience.

If you want to keep pushing it, go right ahead. Cheetah foolishly put you second in command and bolted. C3B has come to us twice now with their best intentions, and we STILL don't have a clue. Well, some of us do.

Quit making judgments on what they have(Immortals) and listen to what they say(let's work together). Theirs has been a consistent message from the start that has only recently fallen on deaf ears on this side of the landbridge.

Then the two warriors between us and C3B. I suppose the idea was to retreat the northern warrior :rolleyes: and I don't want to start a mutiny.....

So go ahead and roll your eyes at the idea of honoring C3B's NPB. If it comes to war one day, Matrix, it will not be because you were right all along. It will be because you helped bring forth a self-fulfilling prophecy with your actions.

People of Fanatica, don't fall for this crap that your non-elected "leader" is pushing here.
 
So...the sh** hits the fan, eh? :p

If you want to get this personal: it has never occurred to you how all agreements you made in your period were always in their advantage. Don't be so blind and naive, Donovan. :nono:

It certainly appears C3B is stupid enough to stay in peace with us, despite the fact that they have immortals. And I will not let that opportunity slip away. But concerning sending the jav thrower there: it's just to catch the barbarians; 100% understandable for them, so there would be no reason at all to see that as an intimidation. If they do the only reason could be an excuse.

And I'm not the leader, Cheetah is.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
