[SPOILERS] Lurkerloos and map discussion

[regoarrarr]

Well whether it would be a bad idea or not, I think it is generally a bad idea to suggest new things to people. I have been wanting to ask CFC / Nakor if they've considered any deals to try and beg metal (give up an island city, etc.) but I don't think it's a good idea to suggest things like that.

Let the players play the game...

[Mardoc]

Agreed with rego. It's one thing to suggest a name for their new city, totally different to point out a possible strategy that they may have missed. Not a spoiler, probably, but not a good idea either.

And can you be 100% certain it's not a spoiler? You may be aware that Commodore is on the edge of breaking his econ, and thus may want gold more than hammers at the moment and be more likely to take the deal than scootinator is. If you're not sure, err on the side of keeping your mouth shut . I've rarely regretted keeping mum. when I managed to, that is

Now, of course, feel free to post that here and taunt them after the game about the cool strategy they missed out on .

[Gaspar]

You generally don't want to suggest anything if you're totally spoiled.

Reminds me of Plako's redemption in PB2. Invaded by rome, lands GLH escapes to the islands, ends up in second place as Spulla's ally.

That shut me up.

Oh dear.

I have no idea why space attacked in the first place and burnt a galley attacking a trireme, misclick?

In any case, for whatever reason, is he eligible for free city in a peace deal? Part of me thinks no, Space isn't threatening JF at all, it's hardly a real war.

Obviously that city will be junk and will probably get gifted back to Scooter, which is probably valid. But then, that would break the no-gifting outside of war rule.

Ugh, the is incredibly gray.

[Qgqqqqq]

Yeah I'm not liking cfcjf reactions to this stuff - it basically boils down to moaning about loopholes in things and then trying to work out how to exploit them.

These islands look like the limits of my expansion possibilities, which puts me in a bit of a bind. I'm going to need to invade someone, and the only reasonable looking choice is plako.

I don't think he needs to invade, those lands should be enough for a peaceful win, if he can defend them.

[Krill]

Never turn down an opportunity for more land...

[Ceiliazul]

Kind of sad India still has signs posted like "10th city", "13th city", and "city sometime". Poor guys.

That was my thought as well, SC spawned with probably the best land in the game. That's enough to launch a spaceship. Though considering how exposed most of it is, he'll probably want to go military at some point.

Though I'm surprised he chopped SoZ there, isn't it meant to go to a badass hammer producing Heroic Epic city?
