Apolyton Knitting Circle (part 2)

[DaveV]

Rahvin - please note that you MUST play in 2.42 (original Civ, not FW or MGE). This has caused a problem already.

[Daddy-O]

When you are done. Please send it to me. I have been waiting for the save to be passed to me. I think I'm next.

Yeah, heed DaveV's words.

However unless you tell us your email address I can't send you the save anyway.

[johnmcd]

I’m just going to send it to Skrobism then as our new friend doesn’t seem to have been back. Look for it tonight…

[Daddy-O]

That sounds like a plan. How many turns are we playing again?

"Bonjour, you cheese-eatin' surrender-monkeys."

[Daddy-O]

I got the save and will be on my way towards world domination soon.

and to answer my own question from above - 10 turns.

[johnmcd]

I'm off on holiday for a week tomorrow so best leave me out till next weekend....

[Daddy-O]

I am passing the game on to Marko-polo. Here is my History.

0-1020ad Spanish build Sun Tzu's
1-1040ad Theory of Gravity -> Gunpowder
2-1060ad
3-1080ad
4-1100ad
5-1120ad Earnhardt founded; 3 founded;
6-1140ad Gunpowder -> Metalurgy; Dale founded;
7-1160ad Intimidator founded;
8-1180ad AK7 founded;
9-1200ad
10-1220ad Mike's Chapel Built!; Senna founded; Moore founded; No Hope renamed New New Hope; Leo's due next turn! Throughout my reign we have established many trade routes with the Americans and used caravans to build wonders. We are close to two more wonders of your choosing as well. But do not give me the credit. The AKC is great because of the many leaders that have come before me.

[Marko_Polo]

Thanks Scrobism, I got the file and try to play my turns tonight!

[Marko_Polo]

I have played my 10 turns and here is my history:

1240AD-Traded philosofy to banking with Americans, 'Marko was here' found
1260AD-
1280AD-Metallurgy -> Democracy
1300AD-Kukkumaki found
1320AD-
1340AD-Ghent SE founded
1360AD-Magellans completed, met Spanish, exchange maps, barbarians capture New York!
1380AD-Democracy-->Economics
1400AD-Bribed New York for 312g , size 5 city with harbor and 2 knights!
1420AD-Crete S founded, traded democracy for physics with Americans, SoL due to next turn, Isaac's being built in the capitol

America mainland has been flooded with our 11 caravans so soon we'll have plenty of money and science. I continued Scrobism's good work of building libraries in those size 5 cities. Temples and military units build in order to put Elves to do something more profitable.

Our next leader have now choice of choosing whatever government he prefers thanks to SoL. A ship chain is in place to America if need be.. the norhern part of the world is still unexplored and I didn't had time to go there as I was busy shipping caravans to America.

The save game is now sent to Scouse Gits who I think is next.

Btw, I think we should soon decide the main goal of the game: conquest or AC! This is my second time to play a succession game so I don't know how we make that decision.. should we vote?

[Marko_Polo]

I tried to determine the player list by reading the thread and this is what I got:

1. Scouse Gits
2. Farmboy
3. Silver Dragon
4. DaveD
5. Johnmcd
6. Scrobism
7. Marko_Polo

Everyone, please check the list and correct it accordinly if need be. If I forgot someone please add your name to the list. And if there is someone listed who don't want to play anymore don't be afraid to tell that too!

I think we have a good game going here and I for sure want to see what we can make of it together!

[Daddy-O]

Oh, don't credit me for the libraries. Most of those were being built before I took over.

[Scouse Gits]

The AKC is alive and well - and about half way through its sojourn in my hands. Lady Liberty and Ike's have been built we are now good comrades and looking forward to the reign of the Super Ironclad - should finish either today or tomorrow.

Farmboy! are you still out there and do you want to play again?

I shall assume that you don't actually want 'this filth' unless you post to the contrary and pass to SilverDragon (I think).

The year is 1420, what will the Knitting Circle be up to at this stage of its Civilization?
Our great Kingdom is poised on the verge of multiple breakthroughs - the Science of Bridge Building is aquired from the decadent Babylonians. The city of New York, as a punjishment for daring to rebel against our yoke is set to Xinning. Our research goal must now be Steam Engine so our mighty Super Ironclads can walk astride the seas. Our capital needs growth! Let's about our work.
Research can be brought to 4 turns with the judicious use of the Art of Xin.
1440 - Lady Liberty in Girba; Revolution
1460 - Communism; Economics -> Steam Engine
1480 - not much
1500 - Isaac Newton's College in Carthage - Library rushed, pity our Capital is such a hole!
1510 - Steam Engine -> Railroad; Barbarian City of Berlin sighted - roll out the Diplos
1520 - The Grand Fleet sets out - target Celtland - they have Wonders that should be ours!
1530 - Production geared to war footing, Diplos and Crusaders
1540 - Railroad -> Conscription
1550 - A regretable naval incident involving a fully loaded Celtic Caravel, clearly bent upon trespass into our waters, and a vet Ironclad of the Grand Fleet has caused the accursed Celts to declare war - hehe. Our trade with the Americas continues - I'd switch to Fundy now and capitalise on our infrastructure while feeding more Food Caravans into Carthage - but it is your decision ...
