[SPOILERS] Dhalphir PB13

[Mardoc]

Move along, citizen.

[Dhalphir]

I don't know what the fuck Bacchus is doing. His power keeps going up, but he also double moved this turn, by playing last and then first. I played shortly after he did. He can't be planning to declare war anytime soon if he's shaking up turn order like that.

Although I must admit I actually don't really know how turn order stuff works - I just play whenever and figure if I accidentally break a rule, we can reload.

[Dhalphir]

Fintourist's firewall settings really annoy me. I know that firewalls are frustrating things, and I appreciate that he instantly logs out the second anyone tries to get in while he's online, but is it really necessary to log in and out of the game 6-7 times per turn, and sit in the game for over half an hour after ending turn, while knowing that you have this problem?

[Dhalphir]

Anyway, reason for my logging in - I want to queue up some catapults around the place so that I can have that advantage if Bacchus decides to hit me with a big 1mover stack instead of 2moving cavalry.

Updates!

A quick summary - we are in an okay position. I think that, of the losers, I am the winner. As bad as that sounds.

I have a strong army, a decent core, and still a few expansion prospects. I won't make it out beyond the time when leaders start absorbing their neighbours - either Plako will come to eat me up or Lewwyn will, from across the water. But Bacchus isn't going to hurt me anytime soon, I'm too far from retep and WillLP, and the others on my continent are too far from me to care about me.

I almost want to attack Bacchus myself, but my army is mostly spears, not ideal for attacking.

Is there anything lurkers would like to see or ask about? Here are some pictures below, shout out if you want to see anything else or want some more explanation of anything.

Demographics at 100% science - researching Civil Service. 3 more turns of gold then 5 turns of research.

The formerly-contested jungle area, now firmly under my control.

Could you show the city list, please.

[Dhalphir]

as requested!

[Dhalphir]

As a followup, any questions lurkers want to ask, or am I doing okay explaining my thoughts so far?

[Dhalphir]

Well well, what have we here?

He's not fighting me. Retep maybe? Retep gained and lost a GG earlier, so maybe that's it.




In any case, I'd already switched most cities to infrastructure builds - I switched the remaining ones too.

That's starcraft in your sig right?
