[SPOILERS]Cyneheard's Middle Eastern Domination

[Asterix]

Hi Cyne, as I said I am working on configuring my comp, but my only civ playing comp is misbehaving today, it is well past midninght already so I will try again tomorrow, should work. I am very curious how the situation looks in game.

I do not see the gave on civstats. What is the current situation - can somebody play or put the game on pause until I will be ready to log in? Loosing turn during war would be devastating

We've been paused for a bit - what do you have to configure to get Pitboss to work? Or is it the mod?

[Cyneheard]

A few things:
- We aren't on civstats. The game is too big. The IT thread has a link to the replacement in the first post.
- We are in the second half of the turn timer against Pindicator. He is pretty diligent about playing his turns promptly.

Hi, sorry, work suddenly got hectic and I had to dust off my only Windows computer. Now it seems I have everything configured OK but I am stuck at "Select a Civilization" with message "waiting for leaders choice". Is my Internet so slow or does it mean there is something wrong with my configuration? I will post in the technical thread this question and let them know i am around.

Hi, sorry, Caledorn posted in the thechnical thread something ridiculous about me leading to PB 14 collapse - which btw did not collapse at all - at that he does not want me to play on his server, so I will not be able to sub. Anyway, I had some technical issues with my game set up and might not be able to play anyway.

Good luck to you and your other sub, then!

Hi,

OK, I'll take a hand and try to get into the game tonight. However, given my level of spoilers it would be good if you could post some guidance on how you would have expected to play the next few turns - I want to minimise spill-over of my knowledge if possible.

Also, if I post screenshots, etc. here, will you take a guiding seat going forward, or would you expect me to operate more-or-less independently?

I'm trying to get pindicator's stack near the capital killed - we have a nice collection of knights and catapults and others to hopefully wipe that. My goal is more to give pind a bloody nose than it is to survive as a rump state - peace would have to be now at zero cost or never (any smaller, and we won't be able to do anything of substance. Already lost 2 of our best cities in this war.)

The city to the north of the capital is expendable. I'm trying to save my southern cities as best as I can, but expect to see pind wipe them out in the medium term.

I can interact on the forum - but I doubt I'll be able to give detailed tactical advice in time.

[Dreylin]

OK sounds good. We'll see what can be done!

[Dreylin]

So pindicator offered Peace and to return the Northern city of Caladan; are you interested?

I exited diplo to take a look around and get out of the pause, so we'd have to re-offer.

[Cyneheard]

Illegal offer - we can't do city trades in this game.

I would rather keep on fighting - at this point, there's little to live for other than showing Pindicator why his war was a bad idea.

If he retreats and we recover our two cities, then maybe a white peace.
