Well I intend to be around. Probably finbar too if he can drag himself away from the cricket.
On reflection maybe you were talking to deity on Tuesday. He sent me a message saying he didn't want to play. Maybe I missed some of the other icq convo that went on.

No I'm not getting cable.
I'd like to know how you get good terrain on a small map.

Maybe we should start this game again on a larger map. But I think normal is too big for 1x.

I don't know what you 2 are complaining about anyway. I see now you both have good land. Better than mine in fact.

Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) On coastal cities, he uses spies to blow the coastal fortresses, then brings in battleships. He then brings transports full of units into the taken city and spreads out
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To President Rod Potter) (A.D. 1933) ok I guess I will be ****ed then
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) with as many units as he has, it's impossible to defend against. It's a matter of striking his cities first. Just be careful he doesn't have subs, etc, around his cities
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To President Rod Potter) (A.D. 1933) Striking with what?
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) It also depends, of course, on how many waves of units he has in reserve. That's why giving you these cities is the best tactic. He has to waste troops taking them
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) what units do you have?
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) He can't attack your mainland AND clean up my cities at the same time
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To President Rod Potter) (A.D. 1933) mainly alpine and marines and fanatics
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) battleships?
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To President Rod Potter) (A.D. 1933) I have 1 of those
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) I'd steal techs from him till you get espionage; build battleships and transports; and marines (to take his coastal cities). Use the spies to knock out walls and coastal fortresses
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) His capital and the cities around it are all coastal
Spy Reports: (From President Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1933) forget science, crank up your income
Spy Reports: (From Mr. Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1934) Horse would rather play a game he's winning 
From High Priest Rod Potter (A.D. 1934): all right that's the transfer done, except for Bombay, which I can't cede because it's tyhe last city
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To High Priest Rod Potter) (A.D. 1934) I have no money for buying cities
Spy Reports: (From High Priest Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1934) oh well, you will. it will be dirt cheap
From Druid Steve Pastic (A.D. 1934): I have to stop real soon as the room is spinning
From High Priest Rod Potter (A.D. 1934): I've saved it. You save it too, I think Horse has gone for a canter somewhere
Spy Reports: (From High Priest Rod Potter)(To Druid Steve Pastic) (A.D. 1934) a few more defenders than last time, Hydey? 
Spy Reports: (From Druid Steve Pastic)(To High Priest Rod Potter) (A.D. 1934) yes 1 or 2 thanks

Not a happy evening of multiplaying for hydey. He came online early only to find Deity's game didn't happen. He's not a happy camper.

I know your not very enthusiastic about continuing this game hydey, but its a good opportunity to brush up your military skills. Lots of fighting guaranteed. If I were you I would try and inflict as much damage on me as possible and play for a stalemate.

Have you just come here to try us?
One thing Hydey is finding out is that unit bribing is a damn stupid idea. I bought his lone battleship last night.

Travel in pairs or let common sense prevail and NOT have unit bribe.
On cable, the combination of that and civ would pretty much end my marriage I suspect.

As I've said before, I don't have strong feelings either way about unit bribing. I'm not sure, though, what your problem is with it. Is it the "reality"?

I don't know what Mrs Horse's viewing habits are, if any, but Mrs finbar, who never saw the need for cable, and is a discerning viewer, would now not be without it.

Mrs Horse likes Chinese Kung fu movies and Jackie Chan (I do not joke).
