Stuff About Teams We're Playing Against
Fourth Victims - Dreylin w/Elum, OT4E
No idea what a Dreylin is, but it made me think of Frank Drebin. I'm old.
Playing as:
Gandhi of the Khmer (Spiritual, Philosophical, Ballista Elephant, Baray)
Seems apt for a civ game. Especially one featuring mackoti. Right, mackoti?
Known Knowns:
Dreylin is one of those dudes that sort of just mentally jumble together from RBCivs early MP days. There's like a half-dozen of those guys, who basically looked pretty good back then but it was mostly because 1. We weren't that good at this in those days and 2. Any game with diplo cannot really be compared to those without. I don't mean that as a knock on Dreylin, just more that those old games didn't really tell us anything. I guess he's come back since then and basically from what I've been told my previous assessment (competent, prone to some occasional errors, not great, not terrible) seems to be accurate.
Gandhi of Khmer is an interesting pick. A lot of people really valued Spiritual. I suspect those are the people who really value Slavery. Maybe we're undervaluing it, I don't know. Philosophical means he can bang out an early engineer and rush Taj (most likely use.) Khmer gives Baray, which is a free 1f in every city. The elephants are obviously extinct. So it goes.
Known Unknowns:
How much influence will his dedlurkers have? OT4E is someone who has a reputation from the same era as my impressions of Dreylin but at a bare minimum he's proven to be a skilled rules lawyer. He's also a fairly competent warmonger from what I recall. I have no idea who Elum is or whose sockpuppet he is but my money is on mackoti. How good is PHI really? Is he the guy who tries to use corps?

How Much My Fondness For This Team Declined When They Named Their Dedlurker
Exploitable Weakness: Gets Phi happy, neglects to build up properly.

I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?
