[SPOILERS] Lurkerloos and map discussion

[Ceiliazul]

What do you suppose the great light house is worth for Commodore? The shrine ain't bad either

As I mentioned in the Zulu thread, I simmed the attack this morning. Unfortunately in the sim I put us at war after the stack was in position and was moved. By the time I was back in position, the AI built a horse archer.

Anyway, the frigates bombed down the defenses to 8%. I then attacked with the maces first, then pinch knights, then C2 knights, then chariot. The result was one rifleman left with 0.6 health, so the city would have fallen without that HA.

I guess it's kind of irrelevant if Pindicator is going to sim anyway, but is that the sort of thing I could mention in their thread?

[Ceiliazul]

no way. mentioning that a sim gave useful info is fine, but telling them the results is to much. rest easy though, Pin will sim for himself regardless.

Oh, thanks for telling me. My thought was that it didn't involve spoiler information (only information available to them, and a test they knew they wanted), so it seemed ok to me. I'm glad I asked.

Set it to Emperor difficulty, use barbarians as your simming victim

(It's also useful to test if someone else can break your city).

So who's going to get the Physics scientist and win the coinflip? Serdoa or Plako?

[Krill]

It's random.

[Twinkletoes89]

I know, was just inviting people to place bets for the fun of it.

[flugauto]

I think it's time for RNG to turn its back on Planko, so Serdoa is to get the Physics scientist.

[Gaspar]

So I was going to update about the war, but then Slow played another five minute turn while I was playing and showed he wants to hasten the concession.

Wow this game is awesome.

The thing that drives me crazy about this thinking (and it comes up often) : Why should SC care if Comm wins or if Plako wins or LeBron wins? Answer: If he's not going to win, it shouldn't make any difference to him.
