Turnchat is HERE! Saves are now. (WIA is tired)

[MrWhereItsAt]

This is the starting save, with CP and SMC orers for 770 AD already done.

[MrWhereItsAt]

So quiet...

780 AD

[Apocalypse]

Once again I am stuck at school.

Maybe I should download some IRC thing for Macs.

adaMada, I understand you wanted to hear my suggestion so here it is:

Phase one: acquire contact with the Japanese.
Babylon - We give: World Map. They give: Contact with Jap, WM, 2 gold.

Phase two: Metallurgy.
Rome - Buy Metallurgy in exchange for World Map, Contacts and Printing Press. Rome will pay additional gold so find the best gpt/cash deal.

Phase three: Physics.
Buy Physics in exchange for World Map, Contacts and Printing Press from the civ with which we can make the best deal.

Phase four: General "whoring".
After we're done with buying the techs, "whore" around our new tech, our WM and our contacts.

Bottom line: We get Metallurgy, Physics and successfully whore our new tech, our contacts and our WM for extra cash.

[Apocalypse]

Shouldn't we sell our WM and contacts to all civs then? Rome would do it their turn if we don't.;

If we sell Contacts, we'll sell ALL contacts and WM to EVERYONE that same turn .

Hammering out a plan in chat now.

[MrWhereItsAt]

This must end soon..

War on France, two cities taken, no chance for GA yet

[E_T]

GA...GA...GA...YEAH!

[MrWhereItsAt]

GA! First Cavalry ready, FP in 15 turns!

[MrWhereItsAt]

Start of the last turn - I just want to play with the Cavalry before Aggie gets his hands on them... maybe get a GL...

[MrWhereItsAt]

That's it - just an attack on besancon, where the Elites can't wuite try for a GL...

Thanks everyone - I feel like a desiccated husk now, but man what a chat.

[Shiber]

It's great how we can make up for our slow research with wise diplomacy!
Hopefully though, this GA will help us increase our own rate of research.

[MrWhereItsAt]

Try playing with the slider - with 40% Science we can make about 300Lpt and get Demo in about 16 turns, IIRC. For the first time we may be able to stand on our own feet for science!
