MarkE Finbar and Markus game

[markusf]

After much trouble we got the game off the ground.

I have ~24 cities
and the following wonders.
Great Wall
Sun tu
Lighthouse
Hanging Gardens
Pyramids

Mark has
Mikes

Finbar has
GL

I have crossed the center of the world with my many ships, and now I am begining a search of the remaining area's I don't think it will be that long until i find someone.....

[Mark_Everson]

It is certainly going to be an interesting game. With you ramming about with triremes, I may even have to build some garrison units

Curse you Markus on beating me to HG by one turn!

Finbar, I hope GL pays off for you. I know I'm going to be researching my brains out. (I only know of one cure for a warmonger with the GW, its called metallurgy ) But Mr. Feudal will probably only research a few more techs and then quit... Keep your eyes out for them longships

We can only hope finbar does not let his country down again.

I had caravans piled up i was just waiting to get pottary. I built it the turn after i got pottary. Then i got maps and feud... I timed it so that i built both on the same turn i knew that finbar must be close to building something so i had to hurry and i didn't want to give up a wonder.

As for attacking i am a very friendly person, i am mearly looking for "trade" partners... honest...

When can you guys play?

[finbar]

Quite right, Markus, I was about to build several of the things you built.

As reported, I'm out of action this weekend, unfortunately. Away from (U.S) Thursday night to Monday morning. Available during the coming week, though, except for the following (U.S) Thursday night.

I will be leaving on the 9th and going on vacation for 2 weeks.....


I also have monday off (labour day here)

[Mark_Everson]

I have monday off, and could play any time during that day until about 10PM EST.

If we play more than 4 hrs, I'll need to take about an hour intermission between sessions.

Have fun lasing about the pool finbar! Try not to injure the wife's career too much .

I am available on the 4th from 8am EST thru 10 pm.

[markusf]

11AM EST to 3 AM est for me.

[finbar]

Is US still on Daylight Savings time? If so, let's start at 5pm US EDT Monday and go for as long as we can. That's 8am Tuesday here, which is about as early as I can start without either the missus or the dogs cracking the sh*its. In both cases, the bite's worse than the bark.

Finbar:

Thanks for your willingness to stretch on the timing!
The time has not yet changed here (sometime in october I think). Will see you at 5pm, and will check in every half hour or so after that if there is a problem with someone showing up.

[finbar]

No worries. See you then. I'd better get some sleep.

As things transpired, as Mark and I suspected, it proved to be a euphemism.

What did you expect? You started to trade techs to beat me to wonders. So i had no choice but to attack. I killed about 8 of marks cities and i killed 3 of finbars cities (with 4 units i might add) Finbar has about 4 or 5 cities left and well mark is annoying and building more cities.

I added LEo's and statue to my wonder count... Plus collosus next turn.

[Hydey]

Please finbar say it is not so, only 4-5 cities left.
The U.N. may have come to your aid but little Johnny has told them where to go, you are on your own , with Australia's pride at stake.

Markus has a slightly faulty memory. He found my Civ very early in this latest session - before Mark and I had traded as much as a bean - and his first act was far from peaceful. He stole a tech.

Yeah, sorry, Hydey. So much for Vet Pikes. Vet Crusaders are a real pain in the arse. Or wherever they strike.
