Hmm, can't seem to find any unsettled territory for barbs to spawn in, I think I'd take the barbs and the extra territory instead of the crowded lands I have now.

That's because Sabrewolf has entered the Middle Ages - second civ to enter Middle Ages spawns an uprising!

aqua: of those 24 barbs, 8 are facing in direction of the netherlands, and 16 further are coming from other dutch borders
and afaics (as far as i can see), you've got some elite spearmen, so barbs do bring luck to you sometimes

and guys, i've discovered how to get rid of the diplomacy screens in the beginning:

offer a tech/money, then click "clear table" and then "exit". it seems that if you exit diplomacy with ESC, it always thinks there's still an offer pending

Yoo-hoo....where's this game up to?

Sabre....if you're talking about the 8 Horsies and a Warrior on the hill between your Dutch town and my Mayan town, then yes....but there are a further 16 Horsies spread over the 3 hills immediately to the NE which are all gazing threateningly towards my town. Anyway, I presume they are going to pay one or both of us a little visit My elite Spear may have a little trouble holding them off if they all decide to visit me

There is another bug in the game, I have a Russian settler on a hill who cannot build. I can move or fortfy but not build. This in conjuntion with the unprovked Sumer attack on my Ottomans causes me to say F*** it and leave the game. I was shafted at the start by the start location, and it was compouded by everyone else helping Sumeria make it into the Middle Ages while I have yet to get writing.

Seeing that this game no longer is remotely enjoyable I have disbanned all my cities and will be out of the game in 2 turns. The extra land sould be sufficent to ensure the Sumeria/Netherlands combo cruises to an easy victory.

Swissy, I can understand you quitting under the circumstances of not being able to build a town. It was bad luck you having the short end of the land grab stick, and not being able to build a town with a settler is strange indeed. As for Sabre's unprovoked attack, it was going to come sooner or later against either you or me because he would have fallen behind as he had nowhere else to expand. He chose to attack you because my defence is stronger.

However, your accusation about everyone helping Sumeria into the Middle ages is groundless. I am not far behind Sabre in techs, and I don't recall trading any techs with him at all. As far as I can tell, Kermit is also way behind in techs. So, the game is far from over as far as I am concerned. Still, going down without a fight certainly has made it easier for Sabre since he didn't have to expend any units in taking your lands.

Perhaps we shall meet again in another game

How the heck was I suppose to build defense, I had three cities that would make more than 2 shields per turn. And those three cities were out of squares to work, all the grassland, plaines and hills were being worked already.

Yes, you're right. There's no doubt you were between a rock and a hard place in this game, with too little space and too much poor terrain. Hopefully your other games are better setup.

does any one else have the settler problem? as i didn't have any space to expand, i'm not really building any settlers anyway. just one new city about 3-4 turns ago and that worked fine...

wow, 3 weeks!

you can ask for a replacement player in the replacement thread: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthre...threadid=112000

however, lots of people are going so chances are slim. maybe ask "bubbles777" or someone else who stepped in for "1889"s games (check his threads).

cheers

Yeh, I'm playing for 1889 in one game, so I'll do it if you want (struggling for a nexus there, huh? lol)

Arabs are absolutely peaceloving when compared to Sumerians Oh, and there won't be many Ansars if I can't get iron Why do you think I had to build the SoZ?

Second wonder eh Sabre? Another SGL? Why Sun-Tzu and not the Pyramids? Or is it so obvious I shouldn't ask

By the way, does anyone recall whether corruption in this game was set artifically low? Even under despotism it was pretty small.
