US pbem game - part 6

[Flandrien]

Heard some really weird sound fx when I ended my turn.
I wonder what it was ?

turn 335 -> Swissy

[Swissy]

That's called a revolution. All but 5 of my cities revolted and went egyptian. In retaliation I cleared out a few of the Egpytian cities, but lacked the units to take them. So if anyone wants the space city Leathbridge1, where the Egalitarian Act is, or the sea city Sundne, alot of production. They are open cities. Sundne had alot of leviathans in it, where you building something important there Maestro?

[Av8tor]

The Germans would like to know why cities from all civlizations are revolting?

BTW Turn to Birdman

[TheBirdMan]

Out of turn.

Seems like its you and me now Maestro.

I'm happy, that I didn't had the Egalitarian. With all the spanish cities, there is a real good chance, that the egyptians exceeded the city limits for their government.

Edit - in turn now, just received. Turn 336 to Maestro.

I have ordered my troops to attack my dear ally, the egyptians.

The reason is obvious.

The objectives have all been met - the cut was clean and relative easy due to the valueable information, given by my former enemy, the spanish.

What will come now will not be easy however - else I would be very surprised.

To meet the comming counterattack, the government has been evacuated to another secure location.

For my cities it was probably capturing the old Canadian cities. I had a pretty wide spread of cities. If one of my trade monopoly cities revolted it would put a big drain on my gold making ability. If a 5 goods monopoly city makes about 400 gold, that would be a good chuck of my budget. then it becomes a domino effect. As the cities begin to revolt, the gold per tun goes down until my capital revolts, then most of the others go. I'm surprised I had 5 cities left.

CTP is a game of balances, especially in MP.

The alien is dead.

This is what happens when you get too self-confident.
Once more, this proves how single-player tactics are totally useless when playing multi-player.

To make matters even worse, 2 space fighters, scrambling from St.Claude, forgot that the city is built directly under a space colony ...
a German space colony.
A collision was inevitable.
We can only hope the Germans are sensible enough to understand that the Egyptians have no desire to start a war against the entire world.

The Egyptian empire now holds 95 cities.
One of them is the former Phoenican capitol.
It did not contain the xenophorm lab.
But, we keep looking.

The Germans have also captured other space colonies from the Canadians. Please use caution when taking off. We accept your compensation offer, but shall remain on alert.

BTW Turn to Birdman

[Flandrien]

Retaliation on Phoenicia was swift and efficient.
They now no longer have a xenophorm lab.
Our own lab WILL be rebuilt.


turn 337 -> Swissy

[TheBirdMan]

Out of turn.

Wonder if one could start two or more - I'll check that when I get back home. The turn has arrived I can see.

I think this is going to be fun.........

Defeat is no fun.
So, think again.
