put the (tm) by my empire name

I have been concerned in this game because there has been very little banter or comments (or even complaints!!)...104 posts and we are well into the game.

As a result, seeing this "complaint" from Whoha made me smile and I will be pleased to add the (tm) to the Most Evil Empire (tm)

By the way, everyone is in and with clarifications if needed except for Jonny.

The next game of Society should run on a 48-hour schedule. It'll make more people interested who would otherwise be too busy, and allow time for negotiations and such.

The Land of has expelled your spies, the ambassador has issued the usual statement of protest
Both The Dudes and The Paragon of Empire each sent a spy today to attempt to halt the scientific research in the Land of but were stopped in their tracks by the counterespionage of a spy.

The Dudes and Ljubium put science on hold, focus on greater good
Both the Paragon of Empire and the Land of put considerabel funding into science and both now have the epitomy of scientific research, that of Fussion Power. Meanwhile the Most Evil Empire (tm) developed the knowledge of Miniaturization.

Space Race Begins
Realizing that new cities would not be possible, the Paragon of Empire and the Land of both started construction of a spaceship today with the hope that it would lead them to the stars and allow for the colonization of another planet.

Wonder Race Virtually Over, called a draw
While the Land of abbandoned the wonder race, The Empire of Ljubium invested their entire GNP into the construction of Galactic Overlord.

United Societies Disbanded, War begins
Frustrated with the petty squabbling over land and wonders, The Dudes ended the peaceful times by enlisting 357 new armies and when combined with their 47 existing armies, mounted a sneak attack on Ljubium, completely destroying the army of Ljubium and killing 5 of the Dudes armies in the process. The 4 border cities between the two Empires now were occupied by The Dudes.

Meanwhile, in the Most Evil Empire (tm) the majority of their army was dispatched to attack the Paragon of Empire but when they arrived at the Paragon border met with the 81 newly added armies of Paragon which were combined with Paragons existing 45 armies. A climatic battle ensued with the result being that 11 armies of the Most Evil Empire (tm) being lost in combat with no casualties to the Paragon of Empire. The remaining armies of the Most Evil Empire (tm) returned home without taking any cities.

Everybody, stay away of my wonders. I've built up an unprecedented army this turn.

Orders sent.

[Spaced Cowboy]

I don't think that it matters at this point. Smiley and jonny are going to have a dual finish since the can keep a spy on counter espionage and build their last two ss parts without a problem.

:Spaced looks for the checkbox that disables the ss victory.

[Ljube]

Yes, but why didn't you attack Smiley instead of me? His territory is thinner. He would have collapsed in two turns and you could have captured many of his wonders on the first turn, some of them not obsolete yet.

[Sparrowhawk]

I have all the orders except for Smiley.

Unfortunately I am going out of town overnight and don't expect to get this done before tomorrow night at the earliest (Tueday Night).

Please feel free to resend any orders if you wish to change and I apologize for the delay

btw, i may have internet access later today and will be able to access my PM's but not the spreadsheet and charts that I use for processing this game.

Bump.

[Sparrowhawk]

Double bump.
Loss of serve

Just kidding. I have the PM's and am processing the turn tonight

Please be patient, this gets more confusing the further we get into the game.
