Ironically I got one of those "the people admire your achivements and want to expand your palace"-messages on my worst turn ever

A shame....a lot of the excitement has now gone out of the game with 2 players committing suicide
That, and the fact that I now must try to beat the alexman alone

Thanks for playing, bongo.
I don't think either of the players committed suicide - they had no chance of surviving when they retired.
Unless of course by 'suicide' you mean the alliance they formed as soon as they met in-game.

Indeed, perhaps a poor choice of words on my part. As for their alliance....

230 to the scary Celt with the golden ageComment

230BC from the not-so-scary Celt with the soon-to-be-over Golden Age and Republic level support costs to the Despotic Sumerian with the massive and cheap standing army, not to mention 6HP AC!
Who's the scary one?

Had there been an ally alive I would have played the few remaining turns just to buy him time. There wasn't so I retired.
The last turn I lost two of my largest producers and my iron city. My defensive lines were ripped open and my total lack of fastmovers made sure any attempt of retaking territory woul be an exercise in futilty as my slow troops just would have been slaughtered in the open. I still had options, but none that would make any sense towards me winning this game. The least stupid option was to gather all remaining forces and march east into aquas territory. Not exactly a winning move so I just quit.Don't eat the yellow snow.Comment

Too bad, it would have been a winning move, but for me!Originally posted by bongo

Aqua, I have not yet received the save - did you send it only to my work address by any chance? My work e-mail is down.Comment
