Battlefield Earth - Turn Reporting Thread

[Archaic]

Consider yourself fortunate. It looks like Russia must have taken rather a lot of punishment in the last days of earth. My northern border is crawling with worms and spore launchers, and the fungus surrounded fungal tower isn't helping either. I've already lost a Scout and a Rover to them.

Usurpers have built the Merchant Exchange. I guess we left it in their hands for too long.

I'm noticed that som of my options have changed too. Specifically that Fog of War now seems to be active where before it wasn't.

Well, I dunno...borders are back. *shrugs*

I was able to redirect to Environmental Econ as planned.

Cincinnati founded. Laser PT to be complete next turn.

Could somebody send Brain to me? May as well put trance on the plasma PT rather than pay to upgrade for it later.

[Flubber]

Fog of war was probably me since I probably left it on after looking at the borders. I usually like to play with it on but find that many players don't, so I usually switch that preference back off when I end my turn.

As for the ME, for me it falls in the nice to have but don't really care if i don't have it category. I am about to build another DP however and just want to make sure there are none that people have "dibs" on -- I assume the uni will want the VW but the others are a matter of preference. I would like to build the PTS to assist my planned continuing ICS -- any objections ??

I plan on making a grab at the HGP in about 4 turns or so. That cache of artifacts should come in handy. I'm just hoping the Usurpers don't have anything decent to switch to. Other than that and the VW, I have nothing I'm looking for ATM.

Turn to Mongoose.

Even money Marr switches to the Command Center.

[Flubber]

If Marr wants the Command Nexus, I won't battle him for it. Does Marr have ind auto ??

SynthFossFuels next turn.

None of us knows. None have contact. Governor's office gives no infiltration on Progenitors.

I guess I will try to remedy that-- a probeship will leave beijing bound for Australia on the morning tide

All yours Mongoose

Cha Dawn to discover Impact weapons in 2 years.

[Mongoose]

2141 to Q.

I think I'd feel much better if Marr DIDN'T have the Command. If you would be so kind, Flubber, as to send Doc:Loyalty to me, I will build it.

Environmental Econ in two or three turns for me. Two if I figured correctly on the lab effect of the two colony pods which finish next turn. Three if I figured wrong.

[Qantaga]

Synth Fossil Fuels discovered. Unfortunately, I will not be helping much with my labs for awhile after all the techs I had to accept to get to it. D:AP was not offered as a choice, so I asked Flubber to send InfoNets and maybe I can switch over.

2142 to Flubber.

and Qantaga please send me synth FF ASAP-- Now that we achieved missiles, impact weapons seem less important. With SFF I will see if I can switch to D: AP and eat the lab point loss in the interest of quicker planes-- If D:AP is not available I will continue on the impact weapon track

[Mongoose]

I seem to recall that every time I have attempted to switch research goals in mid stream, so to say, the options available were exactly those that I had when i selected the original goal. Good Luck!
