Society II Game Thread

check your sent messages folder, that counts too. Also message tracking might count.

[DarkCloud]

Box emptied. Wow, there were only 10 messages in there also... they really want us to switch to PolyPlus, eh?

and select "view all PMS from Beginning"

you may have some saved from years in the past

By the way, I think you can have 150 PMs in your box before its filled

I don't htink that message tracking counts.

[DarkCloud]

Probably have to work in something about people not being allowed to nuke wonders. Should we give it a try this game?

how about there is a 50% chance that the wonder isn't damaged when every nuke is sent? (remember, in civ II wonders weren't usually destroyed )

yes, I would like to give it a try this game, please!

[:) Smiley]

That involves RNG... How about you can't nuke cities with wonders until there are no ordinary cities in the target nation left?

We'll give it a shot this turn with that.
Cultural Victory
Build a total of seven, or build and conquer a total of 10 wonders of the world.

Wonders now physically exist in a city when built. These cities must be the last cities on the target list when nuclear weapons are being used.

[Ljube]

Can gold be stockpiled or is it used up for technology advances by default? If yes, does it mean I need only 7 gold more for third level if I spend 6 gold on tech advance this turn?

[:) Smiley]

Unused gold gets stockpiled, so you can hold onto 2.

[DarkCloud]

24 hrs... time to update yet?

what are you going to do to unsending turnspeople? follow the Nuclear War methods?

[:) Smiley]

Still waiting on Ljube and Jamski. Ljube's should be coming soon now that his clarification's been addressed. Jamski, uh.... I'll just have him do nothing, and his gold carries over. I guess the doitnow! PM won't hurt.

[DarkCloud]

Ljube's should be coming soon now that his clarification's been addressed

Well... that depends, it's 1 AM in Serbia right now
-
but then again, I can wait

[:) Smiley]

what, you've never been on Poly past midnight?

[Ljube]

I have

[:) Smiley]

Got it. Orders will be processed after Jamski goes online, whether or not he actually sends in anything.

3000 BC

3000 BC

The Oracle's Prophecies:

Gazing into the mists I see many things. To the south and west, I see new cities rising from the ground.

Spaced Cowboy's Spaced Dudes have moved north, building Boot Town in E7.

The Vovan Empire has built a new city in C7. Merchants are getting excited as trade seems to be on the horizon, except that bricks are quite heavy to haul, and perhaps they'll have to wait for small but valuable metal tools if commerce is to boom.

The Empire of Iguana Fire moved settlers south to found Centralis in B4.

More intriguing things are in the north and the east. In the Cubium capital of Pyramedes, Emperor Gameis was seen ordering the construction of a massive tower. The tower is as high as a hundred people and is drawing many talented people to Pyramedes.

I also see something I've never seen before there. The Cubish people are decorating their tower with a strong shiny metal. It may indeed be Iron.

Looking further to the east, I see this iron again. The Serbs also have discovered the secrets. The farmers are busy at work with their new iron tools, and seem ready to reap a bountiful harvest.

TUrning my gaze to the southeast, the city of Byzantium looks quiet. There is a puzzled crowd outside the palace. Inside is an empty throne. Rumors are that their emperor Basileus Jamski II has been wandering the dark frozen antarctic in quest after quest.

some clarifications for future reference:
Trading: Since trade takes place before building, to trade 2 spaces away you need to start with a tech of at least 2.

The picture of the Tower of Babel is from my latest comic, Moment and Couple. You can read it in the OT Forum in this thread: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=116559
