PEACE-CyCon War Preparations thread

ok i have an idea...we can sell Doc: ini too 2 AI factions in one turn for a total of 50 Ec...this would mean we can get nonlmath this turn...just an idea...i say sell them to them both so that they cant sell to eachother....but i dont no if they have met but we only need 17 more Ec to get it this turn....

[Corellion]

They have indeed met... they're permapacted, IIRC.

That, however, would be a very good idea. It will get us an extra 50ec, and the prices the AI charges are exorbitant. Any sane human faction will come to either us or PEACE, and we can try to undercut PEACE in any circumstance. Plus, we can switch out of this horribly inefficient 80-0-20.

[Drogue]

I agree completely And yes, it will remove us fromthe 80-0-20, which will be nice, but that was only short-term anyway

[Corellion]

I know, but the sooner we get out the better.

Alright... it's agreed we'll sell Doc:Init to both AIs this turn?

[Drogue]

Yep, IMHO

[Maniac]

I just contacted the Angels... We can't sell them. Only to Miriam.

[Corellion]

Yes, I've noticed that, and then only if we accept her first offer (she won't take it if you offer it later).

[DeathByTheSword]

i could...i tried it

[Corellion]

You could? Who? How?

[DeathByTheSword]

she asked me to give it to her...and i seld it to her...then i did the same with miriam and bought nonlmath

[Corellion]

Wow... Roze just asked me for IndAuto... I'll try asking her first.

I've checked again, and Roze only asks me for IndAuto, regardless of when I ask in the turn.

[Drogue]

DBTS: DO you have the save you did that from? If so, can you post it? That way I can playn the turn with that already done,a s we wanted

[DeathByTheSword]

no have to do it again...but on this computer i dont have SMAC...

[Googlie]

Contact Roze. She'll ask for Ind Auto. Ask for 25 ec's and she pays.

Then "urgently need energy credits" and she'll offer 25 ec's for HEC but if you instead offer Doc Init she'll accept that instead for 25 ec's (and you can sell HEC at a later date)

Now contact Miriam - she'll ask for Doc Init, so ask her for 25 ec's

Now ask her to acccess her research data, and offer ec's, and she'll offer Nonlinear math for 150

So you're left with a net 50 ec's gain after all that

Here's the saved turn in mid game (I just exited the diplobox without doing anuthing, so that offer is still on the table)

No units moved or bases/builds looked at - just the AI dipolomacy

You now have Nonlinear Math, and have sold Doc Init to both Roze and Miriam, and have also sold Ind Auto to Roze (all 3 for 25 ec's each)

The midturn save is: here
