RAH rules: Description and Origination of

[rah]

My thoughts exactly. It used to not be a priority, but we've experienced increased early hostilities, so why not.

I agree I just thought it was ironic since you built it in the last 3 games we played. What was funny was the last game we played I was rushing to get Metalurgy then we quit when I was about 5 turns away (I really wanted to see those walls come down)

[rah]

Yes, you were saving those 20 crusaders for something.
But those vet pikemen fortified on a river forest would still have put up a good fight. There were a lot of units in my two cities there and the one you had.

While I was busy chewing your backside before you could get muskets. Even though vet pike/reg mustkets are real similar against vet crusaders.

Those three times you mention are probably 90% of the games I built the wall in the last 6 months. Having you for a neighbor is probably a bad influence

Then poor Ming tried to walk in there with a settler and a phalanx.

Yes, that was entertaining. But he was a sub and didn't know how HOT that region was. Of course Atawa didn't know it either.

[Ming]

Give me a break. The previous ruler hadn't done that much exploring. To me, it was all black, and it was the only place to put new cities. How could I know. I had to try to do something... 6 cities wasn't my idea of a grand empire

I wasn't criticizing you Ming, I realize you had know way of knowing what was going on there. It was just kinda funny.

Oh.. I know you weren't... and while I had no idea "exactly what was going on"... I had a pretty good clue. But that was the only way out of my land mass, so I had to see how far I could push the border... It would have nice if you had just asked me to leave instead of just killing them on surprise. It's not like I was much of a threat to anybody. Heck, if you had marched a few of those crusaders into my land, there sure wasn't a heck of alot I could do to stop them.

That did change later by the way

Yeah... just sooooooo nice... That Phalanx and Settler still sing your praises

[rah]

At least the crusader didn't get to brag about the kill for long .

No - He made the ultimate sacrafice for his civ and was given the medal of honor posthumously.

At least I got to watch the sucker die

Coldwiz,
Lacking any additional meaningful discussion, Please add NO GW into the official RAH rules. We've been doing it the last couple of weeks, and everyone seems to be satisfied. (meaning no one b*tched about it too much)
