It's all in fun, eh?

[quinns]

Oh... yeah... just fooling around Jppw! All in fun.

[Gavrushka]

Paul can you manage a game tonight (GMT) Say at 20:00 GMT?? I think Berxpert is about all day too - So you shouyld get some gaming in

[berXpert]

Are you ready Gav?

[Gavrushka]

Just started on Dinner... 40 minutes from now okay yeh??? - And I think after you have crushed me to a little nothing on turn 101, Paulno1 should be about..... Just make sure you beat him......... Oh hell how about I concede this game, you report the win (and go top of the rankings.... ) and we start a new game on a small land map...... they really rock!!- I tried one the other day, what a lot of fun!!!

Your choice, you could get two victories in same day this way!

[berXpert]

I take Gav proposal, so now I can report double victory:


GAME RESULT

{Fishing Game, Players berXpert, Gavrushka, Carlo, Quinn, Blackice}
{Finishing Order, 1.berXpert, [2. Carlo], 3. Gavrushka, [4.Blackice], [5. Quinn] }

We had a game of relative big islands to get 20 cities easy on a huge map. Gav conceded at turn 50 when my graph was double him... I was just finishing my 15th mill and start building SOL's. The game still had 50 turns of peace but as Gav guess I'll have enough ships and submarines to take a couple of his coast cities at turn 101

GAME RESULT

{Hunting the fox, Players Gavrushka, berXpert, Money}
{Finishing Order, 1.berXpert, [2. Money], 3. Gavrushka}

Gav decided to make a small map full land, with a peace pact of 20 turns all 3 could rapidly grow and explore. By turn 21 Gav attack Money and by 25 attack me (taking my city with 6 archers ) While Gav went for a fast militaristic game with knigths and archers, we (Money and me) went for a normal game with caravans and mills, by turn 40 I finish 10 mills and reach Gav's graph and by turn 50 with muskets and cannions I take 3 cities of him while Money do the same at the other side of the map

BTW Gav attack us first... we attack him together

[Gavrushka]

What a fantastic game against Ber and Money... I made a WRONG assumption that everyone would go for broke immediately, and attacked with military Early on, I was committed to my Strategy and Lost 200 units over the game to capture a mere two cities... I failed to appreciate that in a Land game it is not that difficult to defend against Ancient Units.... Yet it is impossible for Ancient units toSurvive a Cannon Musket pounding... I love small maps though with 2 or 3 players they are perfect for a great game... The Strategy runs much deeper than on larger maps.... I think it is possible to win with Ancient Units... But you would need to have a massive force built prior, and if you don't make big gains quickly and capture enemy science, you will lose the game quickly..... Erm which is exactly what I did.... Money (the unrated player) is a great player, and a better Judge of Character ( he referred to me as ass-hole for most of the game... ..) .... Looking forward to my next small map game!

[jpww]

money = Quinns

[blackice]

March is Tournament month... get out your yaya's it's going to be hell out there

Rankings Updated....

[blackice]

Game: Get Your YaYa's out

Players: Gavrushka vs Blackice

Small map pure war, trade what trade?...Time was not a factor small map was. I found the Great Gavrushka for the first time before him...ever. He was in shock and the advantage was mine... finally. We jockied for position throughout the early years without change. I had Gavrushka in science and somewhat in soldiers. He saw the light when I had mills and he was but working on ummm not sure but started with a "P". heh no trade on land maps, small just kill the F*** heh. Good game Gary add your two Cents worth...

NEXT!

Outcome Blackice number One Gavrushka Second.

Paulino heh one? Dragon (run heh run away) next? Ber you too yellow for me you have the same strategy you lost already...

No one is ready for the master? How about a newbie?

[drAgON1]

I would love to play you or anyone else. Just tell me when you guys play. I pretty much make my own work schedule.BTW I think it would be good idea to make some sort of chart that list which times are best for people to play.

[Nimrod]

Hey yo count me in the internet games.

Gav, Blackice, I love small maps

I play like you by now ask Gav for the past 4 games I was kicking him.


well Paul kick me but he had better land... I know it's not an excuse but maybe next game with Paul it could be different.

And you, c'mon I know all you old tricks little cheater , I play last friday vs a guy called God who said he wiped you, even he was using the rush buy stuff I was wining with a double size graph, he told me about all your dirty tricks you use

---
Serioulsy I learn a lot from you... thanks

[blackice]

Cheater tell me more God heh he says he will not cheat and does...we have the saved game files if he would like to protest that fact If you saved files from your game I would love to view them?

As for Paulino (cough) one you can kick his butt, bad land we all get sometimes no biggy. Play him again I am sure he will find you a challenge.

Ber God knows nothing of how I play at all on the other hand we know how he does


But a game sure!!! I have one with Quinn and Gav and you so far cool.
