Tribes Of Babylon - reports, trash and such

[Daddy-O]

The great flood mentioned in the Epic Of Gilgamesh was just a generation ago. The land has yet to dry out. Struggles have begun among these young Babylonian tribes. The Elders have agreed it is best to part company and settle this land anew. Will the re-population of Babylon be peaceful or bloody? You decide.

The mighty Kloreep will proceed to destroy you all with his starting worker as soon as he has had lunch.

How barbaric.......

Didn't your mom tell you that you would be a lot better at killing if you had a good breakfast?

[Golden Bear]

Breakfast? You soft and lazy tribes could not survive on the dirt and salt that the tribe of marsh, desert and, ah, mountains calls home. Skrobism, you lazy sod, you scre$%d me good. That is the last time I say, "La de da, I'm just here for fun. I'll take ANY start position." ( read it like Scarlett O'Hara in GWTW)

I lost my first worker move in a scout because I could not believe it possible to create such a cr@p position.

You guys just wait. We'll surprise you by thundering out of the mountains with our legions of warriors along abou the time you folks have chivalry.

Did somebody pass gas? Is warmonger another word for "I only know one way to play civ. It's, duh, the same as Diablo, huh? Right? Where's a ear? Oh, Duh, again."

"Stabbing people in back is good diplo play, duh. Anybody else is incompetent."

Sorry, I'll edit this out after the other players give me a thumbs up. No need to inflame somebody with raging hormones.

[Daddy-O]

from GBear:

I'll take ANY start position.

Be careful what you say around some people on this team. There are worse positions a guy could be in.

[Kloreep]

Where's Aeson's "So very cold" game thread?

I think the thread is still around, but the images are gone.

Basically, as Persia on Deity, he got a tundra island with a few hills, a few game, and one iron source. He proceeded to gain some real land with Immortals and came back to win the game.

"Where's the soap?" Name that movie, not as old as me dude!
