  • I have no say I have no problem with it either.

    But Solver you have to make a rule about saves they should come to me asap. I have been waiting a long time for some. Going on a month.

    berXpert has the saves

    Zip em up and send away emails always open. Just label the subject line "paul and ber saves" Ok.

    • Paul vs yoda

      Well, we actually managed to advance our game somewhat last night to about 1155ad. Paul had a nasty little attack planned which netted him a tech from me and the destruction of several minor cities. Fortunately, I was able to counter fast enough to stop any further damage. The attack consisted of 12 calvary, 2 cannons, 3 spys and 6 SOLs that I know about.

      The game is virtually tied on the power graph and tech is still very close. Hopefully we will be able to come close to finishing the game over the weekend.

      • Well the game is about as close as it gets in all respects i think. I finally grew some balls and turned up. I managed to take a few cities, it took about 3and a half hours to get my sol there but they got there all right lololol. I quickly realised why i use to all ways save up lots of money and have stopped due to people complaining . Its kinda annoying when you have 3 spies and no money to do anything lolololol. But my poor sol and cavalry were eventually no match for his fighters, i also got lost on where i was gonna land The game was quite slow, but it needed to be too look after all the many things we needed to. I think i was considerably slower most of the time. All and all a great game so far.

        And congratulations to H for joining in.

        • Paul vs yoda

          Well, it was close to the end. After another 3 hours of playing today, Paul conceded at 1180ad. The power graph was virtually tied, but Paul was WAY ahead in production. I was up one or two of modern age tech in the end which proved to be the deciding factor.

          The first combat we had was when I invaded the island with the triple good city on it and took out his city. I brought a settler along and terraformed out all the goods for that triple city. This was the maneuver that prompted Paul to call me a "sneaky *****". I then terraformed a couple of additional goods on the next island over. I have to admit that Dr. Doom gave me the idea for this type of terraform attack... many thanks!

          Paul was next to attack as I mentioned in a previous post. He took out (or caused me to rip up) 6 cities, 1 of which had a factory in it and 1 had a mill. He stole mass production using his spys which really kept him in the game. Fortunately for me, he failed on his next attempt to get a tech and also when he took my cities. Otherwise, the game would have been MUCH closer.

          In the end, a lightning strike with 7 paratroopers took out 6 of Pauls cities including several key trade cities. It also all but eliminated the chance of Paul reaching my land with any kind of counter attack for many turns to come. An additional wave of paratroops would have potentially hit another few key cities, but Paul decided it was enough.

          Many thanks to Paul for a very tough game that appears to have been played very cleanly. Blackice, I will send the final zips to you shortly.

              Solver, please let H know what the rules are as I haven't really mentioned much about them to him.

              • Hey, how is the tournament going? I finally got the chance to spend some time on the net. Unfortunately, we do not have net access in our rooms so I can't even play ctp online Basic was as expected, not much fun, though the phisical part was easy, it was folding clothes, cleaning just about everything, shining boots, and the teamwork that made it hell. I am in techschool now so it is great, just can't get on the net on a regular basis. I think my ctp playing days are over. Maybe not, I may come back online in mid-2003 and find those bastard servers still operational and a few discrepit armchair generals still on the front-lines...... Have fun.

                  BerXpert, are we going to continue our game this weekend? Also, H, when would you like to play our tournament game? Dr. Doom has been asking me about playing our game but I'm not sure when we will be playing.

                  Keygen, who are you going to play next?

                            BerXpert and I finish our game today, ending at 1205ad. He conceded after I took most of his major trade cities. BerXpert was up several tech on me early, but I managed to overtake him after I captured electricity from one of his cities. However, I had the power graph lead for most of the game.

                            Thanks for the game berXpert and good luck with the rest of your tournament games. Blackice, berXpert has the saves.

                            H, when would you like to play our tournament game?
