Turn 254: 1320AD

[Krill]

More in-depth comments when I find time, but I'm going to ask this question again: is it possible to build the Internet in mobilization? Does anybody knows?

I have not tried it out, but i think that you can build any wonder that is flagged as militeristic when in mob. And since the Internet will start a GA for any civ, I think that it is flagged as Militeristic.

I think...

[Shiber]

Hi guys,
I just wanted to say what a great work you are all doing, and to suggest that someone open the scenario editor. Since it allows you to alter the properties of wonders, you can also see which traits the Internet holds.
I would have done it myself but I don't have Civ PTW installed.

[Aeson]

From the looks of things, it won't matter as Lego will have been finished off. The editor (1.27f) says the Internet is Militaristic, but the UN isn't. This game was started in an earlier patch (1.21f?), right? So not sure if that discrepancy is due to an earlier ruleset or that the militaristic flag isn't the (only) deciding factor.

I'd love to, but C3C deletes the PTW editor, and then there is the problem that Aeson states...

Aeson, did you take int account that Candri has a courthouse?

[Aeson]

No, I didn't notice it had one.

[Krill]

Candri: Temple, Courthouse, Factory, Coal plant, habour;

New Mavsu: Harbour, Temple.

------
I tried too use the coruption formulae to find the area that the FP would be in, but I don't understand the damn things...


If/when we invade, what is the likelyhood oof use managing t take out Borcem? and then, what is the probability of us taking the FP, if the FP is no further north than Pamplona?

[Cort Haus]

We're getting Rocketry!

(from ND, via GoW - see the GoW log.)

[vulture]

The cynic in me wonders whether ND knew that GoW are giving us rocketry on their behalf Or whether ND had decided not to give it to us, but GoW managed to change their minds since they played the turn in some way.

Now if we can just get that source of Uranium back...

[Aeson]

We don't have enough cash right now to pay for it though. We can finish Miniaturization and the Internet in 2 turns, then take 2 turns (maybe could do it in one, but not sure) to build back the cash, or we can delay Miniaturization and the Internet a turn or two, and have the cash in one turn.

[DeepO]

Would RP still have some cash reserves? Maybe they can help out. I'm not sure on timing either: did they rush the aquaduct before losing the city?

DeepO

[Aeson]

I just responded to RP asking about cash reserves.

-------------------

Do we have to give ND 1 turn warning of when the Luxury deals will be broken? I think there might be a way we can work it so we can do so without giving away that we are attacking. If we are short on cash, and instead use a very large gpt deal for one turn to make up the difference, and have ND declare war on us to break the deal...

They probably won't go for it, but it might be worth a shot.

---------------

Also do we have the save from when we finished Computers? I want to check something out about running a deficit. This game in many ways is on Cheiftain, and on Chieftain nothing happens when you run out of cash. No buildings disbanded, no units lost.

I'm not suggesting we use this, I just want to see if it is working that way, and get a ruling from Trip about whether it is allowed or not (definitely should be not). If it is working regularly, I'd also like a ruling from Trip on whether we can run a deficit, losing a building and a unit a turn.

[DeepO]

1-turn warning: I don't know. They certainly set things up so that they could attack immediately, without warning.

Which save do you need, Aeson? I still have everything. Might be tomorrow before I can send it, though, I've got to run again

[Aeson]

Turn 242, 1260AD was when we finished Computers.

[Krill]

I thought we were getting rocketry from ND (via GoW) not Fission, which we got from Vox.

1260AD from Lego

[Krill]

Aeson, was just lookig at that screenshot, and it looks like they aare doig 100% tax, not research as you said. It looks like they are going to upgrade their infs...

I'll post the screenshot later, but for now they are at 100% research (GoW is funding them I guess...) with 848g.
