Folks I've had to put my laptop into the shop for some warranty work. It'll probably be a month before I can play. So I'll forfeight(sp) my turn, and you guys can play for me.

So guess it's now back to Tamerlin. Good luck!

I think that a miracle rather than a bit of luck will be needed. The captain will sink with the ship.

Yes, I did!

Once again, I am terribly sorry for the delay, though that is in no way an excuse many things are changing in my life these days and I have less and less time for Apolyton.

Here is the AAR :

1760 AD
Giza bombed

1762 AD
Giza attacked

1764 AD
Giza attacked

1766 AD
Giza captured by the Egyptians
Epidemic in Ulundi
Phoenician soldiers approaching Ulundi

1768 AD
Ulundi rioting

1772 AD
Ulundi bombed
Nigerians going to war with Americans

1774 AD
Ulundi bombed

1776 AD
Epidemic in our two cities

1778 AD
Ulundi and Edmonton rioting because of Epidemic

Nice one Tamerlin. I thought it best to wait anyway, since we've come this far with the same line-up.

I should get my turn done later tonight.

1780 AD Stole Internal Combustion from Phoenicians, which allows us to build Early Tank and Self-Propelled Artillery.

1782 AD Lost 3 units from Phoenicians bombarding Edmonton.

1784 AD Lost another 3.

1786 AD ... and another 2. Also repelled a 6 stack of Modern Infantry(?) from Ulundi.

1788 AD Lost one more, then Phoenicians attack with 4 Early Tanks and 2 Artillery against our 3 Infantrymen... we lose Edmonton.

Got bombarded and bombarded back for the last few turns, also managed to crank out one Artillery with enough labourers, but its only a matter of time.

1798- i assume i will be the one to die at the hands of invaders...
anyway, build changed to ironclad, need 2 more turns...
upgrade the red zone light arty to sp arty for more than half of our money
hang on guys! and yea i know this isnt really my turn...

1800- egyptian light arty destoryed by counterbombing

1802- egypt leaves
phoneacean bombing kills musket and cannon
ironclad finished, let them bomb this
i figure all those labors aint doing good as it only gives one turn extra, id rather have the gold and growth

1804- i got one stack in sight

1806- lost 3 to bombing, one is sp arty

1808- got 3 left, its over

the egyptians jacked the city from the phoneaceans lol

y did i have to be the losing one!!

The pain is finally over

I dont have any time to start a new one at the moment, but someone else could go ahead and start it if they want and ill take part.

We said SAP2 with the sourcecode project i think, but maybe we could wait and use the new AoM for the next game?

Yeah i know we're on a roll Probably wouldve finished VII too had it not crashed for some reason

Good news now is that AoM is gonna be hosted on Apolyton and will apparently be up in the next few days, which means we can all hopefully snag it sooner and try it out.

Suffering from ads?

Great game loved reading the posts. How would you rate this mod ? Have only downloded the files and im looking over how well the AI played in this game. Well it seems the game was packed with action no time to build up in peace.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I really like it, despite what our game showed theres a really good balance between development and war.

We made some mistakes in our game and we werent really used to the tree in the game, not knowing what units to research etc so we were always playing catch up without a plan, which didnt give us time later for development and which eventually killed us, and we were also completely surrounded. Not even a coastline to leave undefended, we had to defend every side.

Diplomacy was on and off but seems more effective than in Cradle. AI army stacking isnt as quick as Cradle's AI (dont think CtC includes frenzy AI?), but theres just as many units around.

Put an end to popups!

Just one more question

One last point -how was the AI to AI dipolamcy? Downloded the mod and was looking over the files. It seems diplomacy is not based on Diplomod 3.5( which is in Cradle) or 3.6 ( which is in SP2). Diplomod was one of the first key changes to CtP2 as 1.11 version had no AI to AI diplomacy. Fixed in new play tests at last!
What Peter has seemed to do for Conquest is give the AI a mind set to go after the Civ that expands too fast
Which in most cases is the human player. Other words the regard of the Civs drops as your empire grows.
Find this kind of gameplay in EU2 -Hearts of Iron or Civ3. Do have this right ? Might try 3.5 in Conquest but might make the AI too easy to beat . Well im finished posting here and again I enjoyed the battle the AI gave you did you see a unit that looked like the kitchen sink?

I like the idea that regard drops as you expand, maybe as your miltary might goes up to. Anyone know if that made it into the code (I'm hoping that now Peter is into coding he'll do some fixing of the diplomacy too).

Me too E. Going to look up old threads to Conquest and see what Peter did to change AI diplomacy. Make a post to address this mod. Maybe if Peter has time from coding he could tell us how his diplomacy differs from other mods. This game shows that the AI will not keep long term treaties or be fooled by gifts .Peter did say that AI looks to see who has the most units and will rethink its diplomacy .
