i think it is a stupid part in the programming that allows that situation to occur, if they refuse to meet with you, you should still be able to break nay treaty. another good thing with civ3 is that those type of deals only last 20 turns not all game. so if they do refuse to speak you only have to wait that max turns, but i guess even that may be too long.

The solution of course is no alliances, which is how i usually play may hinder movement in civ2 but as you say at least protects your territory.

hi ,

still civ II has a cheat , easy programming and some wonders that work wonders on the diplo level , ....

but indeed the best way to play on safe mode is no treaty

have a nice day

SMAC has a nice feature for this. You can right click the one you want to cancel the alliance with/declare war to and simply select the appropriate option from the menu.

Unfortunately, SMAC MP is bug infested otherwise.

Someone asked about this thread, so it's time to shamelessly bump it.

[atawa]

I agree, it doesnt show on the 30 days list anymore.

[rah]

Another shameless bump.

[rah]

Well someone was looking for this thread, so it's time for another shameless bump.

ok here's my contribution to RAH's rules:

Situation

You are disconnected from the game and come back. But vy the time you get back the AI has taken your turn and messed everything up for you. So the host (RAH) agrees to pull up an autosave. But the autosave is earlier then when u left.

Question:

Do all players have to attempt to make the same moves that they made prior to the disconnection or can they move as they see fit?

In our game we tried to make the same moves, which makes sense to me, but RAH said to post it.

[rah]

Yes you should try to do the same thing. BUT, in the situation that you mentioned, I did not. It wasn't intentional, but I had a unit that was fortified and originally I moved him a few squares. When we restarted I forgot to move him since he was fortified and never came up in the rotation. I would hate to be considered a cheater because I had a few beers.

I say moved must be duplicated to the best of your ability.
What do the rest of you think.

Keep in mind, that I usually have other saves than the autos and this is a rare occurance.

RAH is a cheater???!!!

[Rasputin]

sacriledge...... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CHEATER CHEATER !!!!

[rah]

Silly boys, that's why I requested that it be "to the best of your ability". Currently there is no standard.

[-Jrabbit]

If I am required to remember exactly what I did 5 minutes ago, I'm in deep doodoo.

[rah]

I take it that means, that you will support "duplicate to the best of your abilities" notion?

[-Jrabbit]

Absolutely.

Ya know, I see ljcvetko and Rasputin chiming in with smart ass posts and I wonder. The least they could have done was provide their opinion on the rule being discussed. If not, they might be accused of simple spamming. And we know how we deal with those types.
