Yeah, sorry about that Sparrow, but we needed to build a wall to keep Jonny away from the wonders.

Also, do these higher-tech wonders count towards cultural victory quotas?

[Sparrowhawk]

No need to apologize, but now that the wall is built, do you have any way to prevent Jonny from building 3 more SS parts? Nukes are all but useless (as Muxec states Majestic is perhaps too powerful) and now attacking with armies is all but impossible.

Maybe a suggestion for next game would be a wonder which allowed attack without borders (example from this game would allow Muxec to attack Vlad despite being halfway around the world).

I look forward to seeing how this game plays out, and hopefully being a factor in the finale, but to be honest I don't know how it will end...have to wait and see I suppose.

The world is polarizing...

Citizens of the free world, we must liberate the backwards monarchist regimes!

Orders sent, subject to (massive?) revisions.

And I object to the implication that my people are uncivilized. Sure, they don't shave or bathe all that often, but that has nothing to do with it.

Jonny- the Evil Empire
Sparrowhawk- Satellite States.

Smiley- Leader of the Free World (America)
DarkCloud/Whoha- European Union
Muxec- Canada

Vlad Antlerkov- Vietnam

Orders Revised- thanks Spaced Cowboy!

Spaced- personally I think the Majestic-12 and GalOverlord are reasonably powered... however, if others support this: perhaps Majestic-12 evades all but 4 SDI's per nuke... I mean if a nation has coverage of 4 SDI's that's pretty good...

As for Tech 15 Wonder Idea- Fusion Power Plant
Gives you (Tech Level)*(#of Cities)= new gold
because the fusion power is more efficient and can produce more... therefore you make more income.

Tech 16 Wonder
(Hyperdomics Factory)
-Perpetual Motion machine.

-Creation of an Extra Space Shuttle Part
(This allows people who have only 2 shuttle parts to construct 2 more automatically on the next turn... 1 regualrly, 1 with this uber-productive factory

Tech 17 Inductive Pulse Field
(Global Defense Shield)
-Cities Immune to Nuclear Attack...

Tech 17 also allows (PlanetBuster Devices which destroy 4 squares of cities centered on one---> these devices cost [TO BE DETERMINED LATER] and require 4 SDI's to combat them fully. They can attack through the Global Defense Shield.

[DarkCloud]

Nukes are all but useless

why are nukes all but useless?

I thought majestic meant that he could send nukes without fear of intercept by OUR SDIs... but Galactic Overlord required his cities to be nuked 4 times before destroying.

[DarkCloud]

gee, this has to be one of the most interesting Society games I've ever played in

[muxec]

Quote from the rules in the first post:

for each tech level, except for Tech Level 15

It means that there is no 15th lvl wonder, only 14th level wonder and than 16th.


My suggestion for 17th level wonder:
Stupidity Ampliphier. Countries at war with you receive 7% less from trade.

I've added a column to the chart that should the amount of SS parts that are built. Reminder: 4 components are needed to win. Tech 15+'s wonders can be built and cost tech level squared. They can be used to ruin one of your opponents already built SS parts.

As stated in last turn's write up, this is how all wonders past and including tech 15 will be handled.

The proposals that are being made will probably be incorporated into the next game.

[muxec]

Spaced Cowboy, rules say that 15th level wonder does not exist! Please explain why did you say that it exists. As I understand there most be 14th and than 16th wonder.

[DarkCloud]

ah, I see- destroying a SSI improvement. is the fifteenth wonder's power...
