Thanks Ormuzd

[theViking]

Any idea about how Korea have been able to get all the gold?

[Paddy]

wow, wow

Persia had 16000 gold last turn

some amazing deals are going on out there

[ormuzd]

then we should declare war to Korea and take their gold after ~10 turns

Just joking

[Paddy]

hahahaha

or maybe put our name on the list of nations who gets to hold the gold for 10 turns...

although if we had it for 10 turns, the next nation would be lucky to get any. I am sure we could spend that in 10 turns

[Paddy]

well Sir...

for our clelbration Senate session 39 we will need some clear FAM guidelines on deals that we are to do

looking forward to hearing from you soon

[Rasputin]

wow never seen any nation with that much gold ??? that is amaxzing...

[Paddy]

it is a little over the top...

certainly is a great target

we could spend up big on Berzerkers ... ...

[ormuzd]

I have meant the thread to be for reports only but it didn't happen

My guidelines for turnchat 39:
Nobosy wants to trade with us technologies.
It seems the deal with England will expire - maybe try to sell the gems again for as much gold as possible.

Some other advices - take the unsinkable galley to some port city so the name stays true.
And good luck wit hre-taking BFC!
