  • Should I give Hydey nukes?

    Okay, finbar hydey and I are moving into the end game of a very interesting little scenario. Its 1930. finbar is ahead in techs but I am ahead in pop. Hydey is struggling but still in the game.

    It looked like, and still does, a game headed for space race, an unusual bird in multiplayer games. We should get all the necessary techs by about 1980. We would get them sooner but finbar won't trade techs with me. He claimed it would slow him down.

    So just to make life interesting, and particularly to express my displeasure at finbar's unwillingness to level the tech paying field in what has been a very peaceful game to date, I just built the Manhattan project.

    Of course the game would be even more interesting if I gave nukes to Hydey. He has nothing to lose, the perfect rogue state, wild card, whatever, or perhaps model international citizen.

    What should I do?

    I think you should start a Nuclear Holocaust of epic proportions.
    Screw getting into space for the very first time.
    Life and death is a grave matter;
    all things pass quickly away.
    Each of you must be completely alert;
    never neglectful, never indulgent.

        Of course if finbar should decide to trade techs with me - as a friendly nation would, I might have more confidence in a 2 civ nuclear detente.

                use the threat of giving the nukes to Hydey to force Finbar to trade techs.
                then give hydey the nukes anyway!!

                      Ooops, I forgot something...


                      Actually, I'm in a great mood lately...I just figure Hydey needs some backup in that viper's pit you guys call a group.

                      Smilies have been annoying me lately, so please add your own wink or smile to anything untoward I say...you'll know it if I really mean it, because my post will be dripping with purple prose.

                      That should about cover it.
