Turn 99 - 590BC -

No rush on it, but if someone could post an updated end of turn save, I'd love to continue studying it.... (you know....while I'm hard at "work")

I don't think we can get an end of turn saves. When you reload them the game will recalculate all city growth and production, so it kind of screws the whole thing up.

Or did you mean screenshot?

[Velociryx]

Yeah....that's what I meant...LOL....only on my first 32 ounces of tea this morning.....brain.....still.....fuzzy.....

I've just forwarded the end-of-turn screenshot to your @velociryx.every1.net address. Can you get at that while you're at "work"?

Do you want to be permanently added to the mailing list so you receive all screenies?

[Velociryx]

Thank you good sir! I'll head there now to check! And yes please, to that last question!

OK, nathan's the dude who sends out the e-mails.

Have you noted this, Mr.Barclay?

Our being on sea only causes an attacker to end on a sea tile if the attacker has no movement left.

That's could turn out useful, as long as we're still facing galleys with 3 movement points. If there's a galley we want to keep safer than the others, we can end its movement in sea, and as long as we see three tiles ahead in any dangerous direction (e.g. with a galley scouting one tile ahead), we should be safe from anything but suicide attacks.

That's a really good point. It won't always be an option, but to the extent we can work things that way, it makes sense to do so.

A total aside....for those of you doing writing, and looking for notable quotes to use....a GOLD MINE of excellent ones can be found here:

http://www.despair.com/

They're having a sale right now, so the site requires a userid and password to log into (Userid: RIP) (Password: OFF)....*excellent* material for the writing, or in general, if you're just looking for a snappy sig-line....

EDIT: a perfect example that plays well with Arrian's last post:

Fear: "Until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore, you will not know the terror of being forever lost at sea"

Did we send GoW another peace offer on turn 99?
Are we going to send another one this turn? I would suggest to continue sending offers every turn, until they accept our proposal or until something radical has happened.

Btw, Vel: thanks for the URL, that site looks interesting. I'll have a more in-depth look later.

Yeah, I think we should send one every turn.
