FOOL. The Master was not born, nor does He die, He is beautiful and terrible and from a wonderful place far greater than the moons of Jupiter. Besides, the sky is actually a dome, don't let the NSA fool you.

Seriously. While it was kind of funny how you got HK talking about "MC Commodore" (Feat. d-tay), it stopped being a cute affectation years ago.

 That is hilarious.
Not to over-diminish my fandom too much,...but this is more like a sensei master than a 'moons of Jupiter' shrine. I learnt the most from 2 players that play well and post well.
Makes for a good story thought.

I gnashed my teeth more than once while reading MCMCMCMMCMCMCMCMCMC. I mean, WHO THE FUCK IS METAL CASTING? Oh. s/he means Commodore. Again. Well goddamn. I'm not a fan of hero worship so it wasn't really for me.

Oblig: Good game to everyone. I really enjoyed watching this one play out. HAK, you may win an award for the most number of troop positioning pictures in the history of the game.

Yeah, my Dropbox for this game has 1,430 images in it. As much fun as it was teaming up with Mindy....I don't think I'll ever team up with someone again that can't also log into the game to look around for themselves. There were times I was making myself quite batty with so many screenshots. And I kept using the spoiler tags because whenever I would load my thread, it would get that annoying jumpiness while waiting for the images to load. With the spoiler tags, I wouldn't have to worry about that as much. But that also then added to the time it would take to make my posts.

You make your own luck by not missing opportunities when they are there. They may not always be obvious but you can't swing and miss when gifted a mistake by an opponent.
Well we missed the one opportunity at Wendy's in round 1 of the Punic wars. That was a bit of a tradegy, of course. This was pre-CBs so we definately would have got the better of that exchange.
Whether we should have lost our stack there depends on whether we effectively bluffed Gav or whether he just let us off the hook for other reasons.

The other wasn't a mistake - we wouldn't have gotten the better of an exchange with Gav's stack. Actually, for the most part gav's stack and our stack were at a point where collateral wasn't enough to overcome the defense advantage at least so long as we both stuck to hills or when Gav stuck to a city for the protective bonus.

Gav hit our stack and got an even exchange. Then HAK hit back (which I didn't want to happen) and we got a less than even exchange. This was our second mistake since our maces were hurt and we had 12 cats + muskets en route which would have made for a collateral-induced victory if we just waited 5T.
We had almost enough units to get a collateral win,...but after using up 11 HA on capturing Five Guys we wouldn't have come out on top.
