Another happy evening of multiplaying Part II

[Alexander's Horse]

Want me to write the Water Rats episode for you? I have a simple scenario. The whole cast goes out on a boat and never returns.

Then I think we should turn our attention to a light hearted situation comedy where the owner of a TV network falls out with his organ donor helicopter pilot and the pilot demands his kidney back. I'm sure it would be a hit.

Even better, the organ donor pilot demands his kidney back because his remaining one has failed. Barrel of laughs there, also good prospects for some court room drama. I think we should cast Rebecca Gibney as one of the silks, I think she would look very horny in a gown and wig. The other could be that skinny redhead from Frontline that you talk about more than Mrs Finbar.

Oh! Work is back to normal btw

It has been suggested before now. Believe me.

He might well be getting it back anyway. I gather there are a lot of rejection problems.

Mrs finbar understands. She has to put up with me perving on Charley out of the Foxtel series "Ground Force", the original British version of the format that has been made here as "Ground Force" (by 7) and "Backyard Blitz" (by 9). Charley specialises in t-shirts sans support.

I gather we're having more problems with the Government unable to differentiate between trading meat and potatoes and things cultural. When will they ever learn?

Well we've been saying for some time down here that the Federal Government has the smell of death about it. That should brighten your day - you heard it here first.

The good news for us public servants is that a government facing an election it probably can't win tends to generate less work

As expected, the horse force took the German capital and the german empire was plunged into civil war. The German side of the former empire was taken last night. The American side should fall in the next session.

question there mates...... do you like ai in your games?

[finbar]

These are funny sorts of games. We start them as back-up/emergency games for when various locals aren't around to continue other games. We usually start with a couple of AI civs in case people turn up looking to fill in a couple of amiable hours. For some reason, in this game, it started out with Horse, Hydey and me and stayed that way. Thus the AI civs rolled along without human interference. Well, until we started interfering with them. If you get my drift.

[War4ever]

We include ai civs so people can join in later sessions or drop out or whatever, the main thing is we can keep the game going with a core group.

Ai civs can be a pain in the arse, particularly early in the game if close by and hostile, but on the other hand they can also be good if you have lustful military urges (like finbar for example). They introduce a wild card factor into the game. For example, they research techs which sometimes upset the balance of play etc. Generally speaking I like having them around.

[Alexander's Horse]

Not early in the game.

He he he ROTFLMAO good one finny, Hydey waits to see if any of the yanks understand what you said.

The Yank (rough) equivalent in baseball would be a "curve" ball and a "fast" ball.
I assume Fin's question was referencing how Horse may have dispatched his opponent, cricket style.
*clever, smug smiley*

BTW, are there four "strikes" (not sure what you call it) in cricket? That seems rather generous.

The AI can be fun to have around. Until they become a pain in the arse.
