C3C Tournament : Game 1 , thread #2

[Adagio]

I'll resend... maybe he didn't get the mail...

[Krill]

Is the year 470AD? I hope it is.

Battle report:

Slave in Murcia is killed by vet knight, no hp lost, city razed


Sorry about the delay, I only realised this game had been sent to me when jshelr emailed me. The I had to do a short job, so sorry for the delay

To Portugal

Krill, I think you forgot to mention a few of the other slaves that were sent to hold the Egyptian advance. It looks like they lost? ;-)

[Adagio]

I just recieved a mail from jshelr, saying he took my last city...

Great game


But I'll still keep an eye on this game, so if someone would mail me an update on the game, just from time to time it would be great

Funny thing is: This game was the last PBEM game I've started, but the first PBEM game where I actually get killed... I've only played 3 PBEM games... one got cancelled, one is not just slow, but extremely slow... and then there's this game

ok, since it seems that Krill may be awol, jshelr asked me to play the next turn, and i did. Rommel, if you think waiting is the best policy, please feel free to wait, since Krill hasn't asked me to do so himself. But it's there if you want it, and i don't think it's too far off what Krill would have done.

[jshelr]

I think it's ok to go ahead for a couple of turns. K said earlier that he may have problems and requested that snoopy act as substitute when needed.

[jshelr]

still no krill in any games. I really think we should play on here.

[snoopy369]

Rommel, did you get the save from me?

[Rommel2D]

Yes, apparently my comment here didn't get submitted (it happend twice last night)? I was just saying it was a bad time for a substitution and I wanted to give him as much opportunity to get back or at least Ok the sub.

48+ hours- I guess I'll play it tonight...

The fun-loving Spanish people surrender to the great conquering queen in the face of overwhelming forces, asking her to name her conditions.

[Who can spot my last-ditch stab at victory...? ;-]

rofl @ rommel

Proper etiquette at this point requires you to send your firstborn son and daughter to Krill as "guests of the Crown", and to offer a large gift of gold and jewels. Offering your own neck as well is considered polite but not mandatory.

[jshelr]

An honorable move. Clearly, R2D was hoping for a longer and more civilized game of civ, where he could exploit his technological edge. The brutes of the east were lucky this time around.
