Who knows maybe you will pop the most expensive tech ever from a hut. That would soften it a smidge.

Do you know that that tech is ... astronomy! I wonderfully useful tech on this map. All it would do is kill Stonehenge [Image: duh.gif].

And since hut techs are untradable, it would block you from manually researching/bulbing Astronomy for trade value.

Too bad the difficulty level isn't lower...you could pop a Settler and grab the Iron/Gold wink.

now that would be funny! No way I could be defeated until paratroopers in that situation, too.

email from mh ... it seems that Dreylin is stepping on some toes over there. I'm not going to get involved.
Quote:Hi,

may I ask what your next tech research is?
I would also like to know about your feeling with respect to the current
game situation.
I don't think we can happily trade techs until 2050AD.
*I realize the above could be misinterpreted. I mean that I don't see the 5 of us to trade techs forever, not the two of us.*
Also athlete and me are a bit worried with Dreylins push to the west and
his tech lead.

reply ...
Quote:mh,

I am currently putting the final touches to Theology. I am not sure after that as it will depend on feedback I get from others (what are you researching?). I am thinking Feudalism.

Regarding longer term, I don't see myself as being a leader in this game - my corner of the map is filling up and doesn't contain enough room for the cities that I will need to compete. What am I planning to do about that? That question is currently under review.

Regarding Dreylin's push to the West - I have no opinion - you'll need to respond to that yourself. I don't see myself trooping all the way across the map to fight you if that is what you are asking.

and an email from Athlete (no mention of Dreylin in this one ...)

Quote:Hey Ruff,
I'm currently teching construction. Are you interested in brokering anything for that? What are you currently researching/where are you headed?

Quote:Athlete,

I am currently putting the final touches to Theology (500 normal beakers). Construction (350) is a little light for a straight up trade. We could balance it out with gold? I'd be happy to trade you Theology for Construction + 100g. However, I would also be asking for a NO BUILD CLAUSE on the AP. Further, I would be encouraging you to build the other wonder associated with Theology and I'd be willing to hold this tech back from sooooo so to restrict his chance of landing that wonder.

If he bites at the 100g, then I will not have to stop teching to honour my 100g deficit with Dreylin smile
