Am I EyesOfNight?

[DriXnaK]

Since so many of you don't believe me, ask me anything you want. I've been around longer than most of you. I know it's hard to accept that since many of you super geeks on here view your superiority in terms of seniority. So have at it, amuse me, entertain me as you always have.

HELL, yes. I knew as soon as I saw the name. Then I read. Then I knew for sure.

Talk about the 'breakpoints', as I believe you used to call them, that you used when playing Civ 2.

Weren't horsemen useless in civ2?

thats 1 more for EoN, I doubt Eco would've started this thread

Breakpoints? I think you have the wrong term. I'm not sure what you are referring to. Describe it a little more.

Horsemen were a necessity in the early rush. The idea wasn't to get the huts because you wanted to get lucky, the idea was to get the huts so the other guy wasn't lucky. I didn't care if every single hut was empty just so long as the other guy wasn't getting those huts since I knew I'd win on an even match up. Anything I got out of them was just bonus to me. The other reason for the horsemen was map control. The reason I won most my games had nothing to do with huts or anything else, it all came down to my ability to control the map with a few horsemen and force the other guy onto the defensive. Once I had the guy defending it was already too late for him since I left every single city unguarded thus maximizing my production of settlers. Furthermore I could expand further out faster allowing me to hit the key production resources.

Absolutely not. What better for early exploration?

So, how did that business you were trying to start with your parents' money work out?

[DriXnaK]

Parent's money? I know you're idiot, but do try to at least make posts that have an ounce of truth. You should stick to posts like the topic you made about captain crunch turning your **** blue. As an academic, you excel at pointless and worthless posts that belie your below average intelligence level.
