good job

[Grandpa Troll]

I am actually having a blast with this game

Its cool having major conflicts at one time

You and I are dividing Assyria up, I took Persia apart and you took out one as well.. but forget which one.

I have a ton of units headed to Assyria to convince them I am the real deal and they shall bow a knee beofre me


Looking forward to our next turn

212 sent. Yeah, it's a fun game! I'm also planning to grab a couple cities from Assyrians/Red. Let's try not to butt heads over the goodies.

first come first serve sounds good to me

[johnzim]

213 sent. Sounds good to me! You may perhaps want to consider attacking the western portions of the Assyrian lands. Excluding spacebourne invasion, the Assyrian western flank is much more accessible to you than it is to me. Or we can try the shoulder-to-shoulder technique just to see how quickly we can roll him up from the east.

214 sent. TRUE.

Man, the Glitch Monster is really messing me up in our mutual AO (that's: "Area of Operations" for non-military types)! I can scarcely figure out where the enemy is. But I see your massive ground force just fine! They sure would present a tempting target for any foe possessing a nuclear arsenal and the ability to use it. Thankfully that's NOT the AI!! I wonder if someone has developed a scenerio where the AI would at least try to use nukes once in a while?

Next game, NATO II we could actually increase the AI and have more to Battle with

[johnzim]

215 sent. You mean MORE AI civs? That would be cool. I was hoping for SMARTER AI opponents, though.

smarter ai

probably not but wth more it may slow us down somewhat

[johnzim]

216 sent. Sure, whatever you think is best. I just had a frustrating experience: I had spent 45 minutes on my game turn, and the sucker CRASHED just as I hit END TURN!! So my redo was done in haste and probably has some dumb mistakes.

[Grandpa Troll]

last turn I had to reload 6 times taking a city
it crashed everytime

I had 27 Marines in Place

ended up I had to attack 3 times with a single Marine then a stack
to prevent CTD

217 sent. Wow! "CTD" = Computer Takes Dump?
That's quite an impressive battle force you have there! I'm continually having to reign in my sub commander, who'd like to test the effect of his array of Trident D5's on your troop mass. No, Good Fellow. That's not how we treat our friends!

CTD Crash To Dadburn Desktop

217 back picked up 5 more Assyrian Cities that go around
