The Tale of the Years - 1814 AD

No problem. I wasn't in a rush to play again so soon myself. I was just wondering if the other Ministers felt their previous polls still were applicable. I'd rather wait and see some polls based on the new situation.

Unless something major happened that isn't in the turn by turn report, the foriegn ministry report is still very uptodate

The problem with that is the newly bribed units add to the shield demand on the nearest city, and can also cause real unhappiness problems while they are out of the city. I had to disband a couple of bribed barbs because the city went into revolt and was going to crash our Government. The ones from the actual barb city are far away enough to be NONE units, but the attacking ones aren't.

The Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Science seem to still be valid (I agree). The Minister of Imperial Expansion and of Trade (Earwicker) is having some trouble reading the game file (doesn't have his MGE CD available at the moment). I'll look forward to polls/reports from the Mniisters of War and of City-Planning as soon as they have a chance.

College exam time always has an effect on our game...

has earwicker tried the no-cd patch?

Will check our tech path and open a WoW discussion later today.

It's well worthwhile to send dips off to meet barbs away from our cities. NONE units rule in a Democracy!

Great session, cavebear!
