Mrs Mongol's Gold - A Crazy Succession Game

[Scouse Gits]

The wanderer returns...welcome back Messer Niccolò

La Fayette is playing, so I suggest Messer Niccolò starts after him. New order:

1) La Fayette
2) Messer Niccolò
3) Julius
4) SG[1]
5) Straybow
6) SG(2)

[Messer Niccolò]

Ok, back to 'work' then!

[La Fayette]

sorry
I am currently trying to get a high speed connection...and it doesn't work . That's why I have been away from ACS since friday.
Anyway I have downloaded the 1620 game and shall play tomorrow.
Hope to be able to post my savegame when finished.

[Scouse Gits]

Good luck with the connection LaFayette, take your time - I'm still recovering from a marathon session on the Sailing Game - that got my lady in a serious MWHC mood - you too Julius...

News from Lafayette Khan

Lafayette Khan looks at the Empire and says: 'Those Greeks are evil and must be punished. What we need is ironclads and a strong transportation network.'
Here is what happened next:
1630: Beads to NoDecorum = 339g , Wine to NoDec = 111g, Dye to NoDec = 88g.
METALLURGY discovered, RR researched.
1640: Oil to NoDec = 34g , Coal to NoDec = 62g, Salt to NoDec = 46g.
1680: Salt to NoDec = 46g, Hut gives 100g, mighty Mongol crusaders take RIGA (plunder 12g )
1700: Some ironclads now close to Greece, therefore:
Mongols take Thermopylae (plunder 152g), Mongol take Pharsalos (plunder 82g).
1710: RR discovered, EXPLOSIVES researched
Coal to PiRamesses = 50g, Cloth to NoDec = 57g, Cloth to Northern Egypt = 32g
1720: ADAM SMITH completed in NoDecorum (just for the fun of it, since we are now close to victory).
Mongol take Argos (plunder 52g), Mongol bribe Herakleia (cost 1222g, plunder 122g).
Wine to NoDec = 74g.

Lafayette Khan decides that a bottle of champagne in Summer Palace would be nice on the 4th of July. He resigns and wishes his successor lots of fun with all the ironclads now swarming around Greece.

[Messer Niccolò]

Is it my turn now?
I'll d/l tonight, tomorrow I'll post the results.

[Scouse Gits]

Thanks La Fayette...are you now on a fast connection or back with the original one?

Could you please attach the save file so Messer Niccolò can download

[Straybow]

Too late

I bet he did a preview and forgot to redo the attachment before submitting… probably gone by now (physically gone, alcoholically gone, etc)

[Messer Niccolò]

Mr. Niccolò sat on the Mongol Gold Throne a good tea cup in a hand, a mouse in the other, scribes at his feet await fearsome...


effectively no .sav has been added so, Mr. Niccolò has no other chioce that playing a SP game with vikings...

[Scouse Gits]

I have e-mailed La Fayette - hopefully his connection will be good enough (and remembers his old e-address)

SG[1]

[La Fayette]

SG
I think you are right: my new connection seems to work but also seems to have forgotten my e-mail address (and I spent a whole day on hotlines before someone noticed that my computer was connected to the wrong telephone line ).
Of course, if you have good advice about making my new connection remember my e-mails, I shall be thankful.

[Scouse Gits]

OK Messer Niccolò away you go!

SG(2)

[La Fayette]

no more need for help: my e-mail box now works like a charm.

(La Fayette, ready to switch back to serious activities such as succession games)

[Messer Niccolò]

really sorry but this week end has been quite awful...
I'll play this evening but, would anybody skip me, absolutely no problem...
Sorry again...

[Straybow]

Nothing says you have to play so many turns…
