[SPOILERS]The Tyrant realizes that once the world burns it gets really boring....

I mean to put Brick Hur next to the barb warrior and force the warrior to attack Brick even though it is injured. Should win without any difficulty.

[spacetyrantxenu]

Ok, that works for me.

Turn played, I did basically what I outlined earlier. The barb at Tyler is going to slow down improving the corn at The Boathouse, but that can't be helped. Looks like a 2t delay.

T64

We found WilliamLP's borders this turn.




We can either dart in/out next turn and leave him guessing (maybe), or if there is a path around him, perhaps continue exploring in that direction. WilliamLP founded Hinduism.




The warrior that attacked the colorfully named chariot was so intimidated by verbal abuse that it didn't even land a hit. Nice job! Drunk on blood lust, the chariot then mis-moved. I should have moved SE/SW rather than SW. I want to be able to cover the southern front of the city so as to not disrupt worker movements in the future. Oops.




Nothing to see here, folks.

Bored at the moment, so I did some counting. Again, not my strong suit, but simple addition is usually safe. Anyway, the previous demos has us 20k behind in land area, which I'm using as a very rough measuring stick for expansion. I count up exactly 20 water tiles in our borders, and apparently the city center tile doesn't factor in. So, conclusion is that no one has more than 4 cities, and the rival best civ is landlocked, has the capital expanded third ring, second city is second ring, and the others have not expanded borders yet. If I've made a mistake, would some wise veteran please inform me? I don't typically spend time scrying the C&D crystal ball and I don't know all of the tricks of the trade. Also, I'm not a code digger or a research article buff, so if I've missed the mark, take pity and give me the scoop.

Game 7 cannot get here fast enough.

You might be the first person to use actual profanity in-game on RB.

[Boldly Going Nowhere]

Really? If that's the case, I should feel some mixture of pride and shame, I suppose. For the record, I wouldn't have done that if another player had been involved or present. But, I had literally JUST finished up a kind of long worker micro plan that was immediately rendered useless, and I haven't played in enough games to take it in stride.

This gives me the idea that I should rename all of our units to something a little more...pious. Die Fucker shall henceforth be known to all as.....

...details at 11.

Maybe but it's absolutely not even the most offensive unit name we've seen in the last month. Not that I'M one who should be casting stones on this issue!

[Commodore]

Heh, yeah, Noble, your own team man...

[NobleHelium]

I'm not sure why you think I think it's offensive in any way. It was an interesting anecdote because it hasn't been done before and I pointed it out.
