Okay, interesting points you raise.

Team DT asked us to all tell Rome this turn (i.e. turn 92) that we're forming a defensive pact. Have Yos/Cal told Rome this?

I dont know if Yos told Rome or not.
Should we ask everyone to post msg to Rome this turn?

T92.

We could start currency for 4t at 90% with 4sci in CM and UC. We lose 68gpt at 100%; 60gpt at 90%. 255gold at treasure.
We are not even 1st at GNP with 100% slider.

India finished Monotheism and take Taoism. Holy city not visible to us.
Most interesting, Yuufo double revolt to OR and Police State.

Also, Yuufo connected Fur and Yos connected Silver.

I have pretty much drifted out of this one now for the last couple of weeks - now that PB13 is heating up, planning for that game is taking up a ton of time without a teammate to bounce ideas.

Can you guys give a bit of an overview of the general state of the empire, maybe some idea of how you rate your chances to win currently?

DMOC

I need a nap ASAP but will be back to this game later tonight.

-Send message to Yos/DT asking if they sent the message?
-Yes if we can get currency in 4t we should start research NOW, with 4 sci total
-Er ... why did Yuufo revolt to Police State? frown

Is he seriously trying to prepare for a war?

Dhalphir - I'll give a state of the empire report soon at around the turn 100 mark.

Some old chat with Yuufo. We were talking about Mids.

I wasn't sure he is serious about PS, but with his Happy cap and big target on his back maybe PS is better.

I'm chatting with Yos now. He didn't sent msg, but he could login one more time if needed.
Do we want to send msg to Rome this turn or next?

I'll try to put more analisys in the turn report. As for our chances, well, we have some, I guess. But its not looking good so far.

Chat with suttree.

Yuufo didn't answer to chat still. Maybe we could talk this weekend.
SutOxy obv wanted us to fight India somehow, while he is building economy.
Could you ask Asterix what turn their NAP with India ended? Yuufo said it t130.

DMOC

EDIT: 2 hours left on the timer, but I'm around so I can finish up the turn if needed.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Asterix and Yuufo have an NAP to turn 130.

Couple of other points:

1. I sent another email to the "3-way alliance" saying that we'll send the message ingame once DT confirms that they've sent the message. If they don't respond by the time the turn goes to the next, then let's just tell Rome the next turn. (Rome almost always play near the end of the timer so it's not too big of an issue.)

2. We have an NAP with Orgynized until turn 125, so that gives us plenty of security on that border. Now ... what about India's border? Fortunately, Cornell has an axe and a spear one turn from completion (and is finishing up a barracks soon) so one could hope that we're safe there in case India does the boldest of the boldest and attacks us. But we might want some defense by UT Austin and Princeton.

3. I'm again really surprised that India switched to Police State over Representation. I mean ... all they have to do to get tech is to work 2 scientists in their library cities, and have the other cities focus on military or work cottages (which should get them enough gold to support even 20% research). Depending on how the game turns out, this could turn out to be a really bold or a really stupid move.

4. UWashington needs military police soon, unless we're planning on a whip. The chariot from UT Austin can go and help out, but then we might need to send something over to UT Austin before our NAP expires.

5. Say ... what do we do with India? Our NAP expires on turn 100. Want to be bold and not extend? I.e., keeps India on their toes, and it might make them more hesitant to expand. But even so, what we could do to them pales in terms of what Rome could do, which is why I hope India builds near Rome, or Rome builds another city near India.

6. Are we whipping UT Austin for the granary?

TeddyKGB · November 22nd, 2013, 22:40

1. I saw it later. I agree, no big deal if we announce next turn before GG played.

2. Sadly, we may need more military soon. Top power spiked again to 138k this turn, so its like 4 praets for Rome now. Maybe even 5.

3. Yes, we'll see. Maybe he was worried about our NAP expired.

4. Yes, I sent chariot from UT.

5. Its could be tricky to play without NAP when Rome not talking. It could benefit us if Rome decide to attack India, but it could be disaster if Rome attack us instead. And we can't tell for sure if Rome ignore diplo with India. Maybe they did talked and had some deals already. Bad scenario for us.

6. No, we just finished chop, granary next turn with 12/24 food stored. Thats our 9th granary for 9 cities.

I could play in a 10-15 min.

T92.

Rome has sentry chariot near Antium now (currently healing).
Last turn I change UIllinoise to galley.
Change Cornell to chariot. Next turn we'll grow into unhappiness and could 2pop whip barracks with huge overflow into units.
We are at 100% and going for currency now.

Pictures. Lots.
