mate, this is a succession game, of course we are not in caht

we want you to play the game


then report back dso we can get discussions going so that the next Emperor can step up and play his 5 turns

have you ever playe a succession game, well the principles are very similar

this is not a standard democracy game where every minute detail needs to be analysed

the goal is to keep the show moving

each Emperor is supposed to have ONE week

Monday to Friday they get every thing all set up: discussions, polls, chats etc

Then on the weekend they play their FIVE Turns

then the load the save on the Sacred Save thread. This ends their time as Emperor

They then write up all necessary reports from their Time as Emperor

party hard

indeed a very honourable thing to do

and the sort of benevolence one woud expect from your time as Emperor


yet you are late in getting the turns played

thus holding the next Emperor up in getting his agenda started

and thus late in getting the celebrations for your Reign underway

and down at the Three Weeds, we have a special act, a troop of Nubian Dancers, and they were booked for this week only, and are here for your Celebrations...

they are three days into their five day booking, and are leaving Friday for some gig down the penninsula and have yet to do any real work.... although some of the regulars have been enjoying the rehearsels a bit

Well I still haven't seen their pictures that Paddy was promising. That must be your fault Emperor Conius! Everything is the Emperor's fault. The whole Empire is falling to rack and ruin due to the Emperor's inattention to his job. S**t or get off the pot, boyo!

Stop panicking about our lack of defences and get the job done. Carthage must die!

Oh, look, a save. I didn't think I'd get to see one this soon.

Im not sure what you mean by this.

We didn't lose any ground we gained by building two cities and completing the two wonders that will help our expansion boom.

At this point in time our military unit production is having a hard time keeping up with our citizen production. And thats no ones fault its a common occurance at this point in the game.

And in order to do a knock out blow of carthago we need more galleys. I built one during my reign and several more are in cue. Why do you ask? Because in order to land next to Carthago we need to move across four sea tiles, with three movement ships. I tried leaving the galleys forted outside of Massila and a galley from Carthago came over and damaged one of our only three galleys. I wasn't about to lose an army to a galley battle so if we are going to hit Carthago we are going to need some "sacrificial" galleys in the stack. I saw upwards of 6 to 8 galleys moving in and out of carthago heading north or coming back south from the islands (Sardinia and Corsica). So IMHO if we are going to take out Carthago we are going to need MORE GALLEYS.

We have one more Citizen heading north, and several Garrisons about to be built to protect what we have already built. We NEED to reach some sort of equilibrium in building garrisons as well as Citizens. Then place cities in blocking locations to slow the settlement of the Celts and Goths, and then settle the heck out of the northern Balkans. All while we are pumping out galleys and Legoinaires in the south. We also need to upgrade all the legionaires this turn since we have Republic now.

Big decisions right now for Mc Meadows are:

1. What to do with the Great Leader?

2. How many galleys do we build?

3. Should we still go the carthago first strategy knowing there are AT LEAST 6 to 8 galleys between Carthago and the islands of Corsica and Sardinia?

4. Do we try one more wonder? Or get into military production mode? (Right now our two wonder cities Neapolis and Roma are building galleys and legionaires respectively)

Thats all I can think of right now.

IMHO we need to go Garrison and Citizen production up north, use those southeran Alps cities for unit production and a couple of those cities just to the south of the Alps for Citizens. Rotate back and forth to regain or control population. In the south go for Legionaries and Galleys to finish off what we need to do to cathage.

And consider grabbing the luxuries in Gaul and eastern Balkans that will get us baccanalia. At Diety we may need and probably will need the happiness boost.

I'm pretty sure the Macedonians and Celts act upon themselves. Alltough you probably insinuate upon the peace agreement with the Celts that made it possibly for the Celts to expand.

Everything is a trade off, of course if we delayed on the celts now they would expand but lok at this way, thats all the more cities they will build for us to take over

i think you should look at the save your put up because when i look at it, it look like something funny happened to the game
i think you should look at it that is all
or just put another save because i think it is the wrong one

I loaded it fine.

Actually, btw, it looks like you can invade Carthage safely in 3 moves... but if you want to land on the hills you take 4. I assume that's what you mean.

Of course, you can pretty safely start out on the fish square 3 moves away, and just put up a galley screen of 2 galleys ...

Just because everyone lost interest in censuring you, doesn't mean that the Senate in general isn't still annoyed by your arrogance and lack of respect for a fellow Emperor. You were asked to apologise by several Senators and you ignored them. You show a continued lack of respect for the Senate and you continue to insinuate that errors were made during my reign when in fact the Senate has endorsed all my actions.

So if you're still not going to apologise for your inappropriate accusations, then just get back in your box rather than cheapening the Senate floor with your arrogant gloating behaviour.
