No ICS succession game

[Hueij]

Just received the game from Skrobism. I'll try to pass it on to John later today or maybe tomorrow...

Happy New Year everyone.

[Hueij]

Just sent the 800 AD save to John...

A short summary: oh boy, oh boy, oh boy... Civil disorder all over the place, there are too many small cities for a Monarchy. Defense is non-existant, warriors all over the place to keep order, if we are attacked we are toast. And we are at war with the Germans Good news: a cease-fire with the Sioux

We are racing the Germans for Cop's Obs, hopefully we get lucky. Food caravans are being built or on their way and two caravans are on their way to Madrid. Maybe it will bring enough to rush the Obs because the coffers are empty

I am sorry about the delay with passing the save onto Hueij. I must be having problems with my ISP. Well, you get what you paid for - FREE.

Oh well it all seems to have worked out fine.

Happy New Year!

Well, I'm not surprised we don't have a happy population when we have two temples between the lot. On the plus side I had not one riot and we now have the largest coffer in the game, to top that we can buy Cops should the need arise, but it will be finished in the next couple of turns anyway. We also have a caravan waiting to help build St Mike's when we discover Mono. We discovered Banking, as did the Sioux and Chinese almost simultaneously. We got maps from the Babylonians and Chinese. We also made an alliance with the Babylonians and the price of war with the Carthaginians, the weakest force in the game.
A diplomat is going to buy the barb town of Flower, though there is also a small army that might be able to take it.

Caravans of Dye, Wine and soon Copper are assembling in Wallace ready to go to China where such goods are in demand.

All in all, it looks a lot healthier than when I last played, Gits, over to you....

Thanks John - game received - will get to it asap....

Skrobism, could you send it on to John? I'm having troubles upgrading and can't get to my mail at home. I don't think my computer will be working before the end of the week, so ...

Sorry...

[Daddy-O]

Ah the joys of upgrading...

I will send it on to John tonight.

Save passed on to Git 2.

Everything seems to looking up, and while we don’t live in the best of all possible worlds it is certainly closer…Another boat of exotica is on its way to China and Babylon with another in preparation. King Richard’s and Magellan’s were completed by the Germans and Carthaginians respectively and I believe that the Germans are going to beat us to Leo’s. Otherwise it was a normal domestically focussed turn. No advances made (though the Chinese gave us navigation for being constant friends).

Anything new yet?
