	Good sportsmanship Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I have to say that there has been excellent sportsmanship in this game.

Markus could have taken out my cap very early on with units from huts and apparently Makeo could have done the same with Hydey!
Also Makeo could have had a good shot at my cap some time later but resisted

As it turned out Markus and I are allied;
and Makeo and Hydey are allied - quite ironic, but I think it dispells Markus fear that it's a 3:1 gang up on him!

I had no luck with huts though and trail very badly in the pg and city stakes. I'm going to have to play a good game from here to not get knocked out of the Tourney!

Hydey is doing well. I always said he was a good and under rated player. Hold that buck Raz!

Makeo bolted to a tech lead as I understand it but Markus got the only two Wonders including Leo's by 150BC.

Those two are way in front with cities and pg.

We all started quite close really and MP interaction was evident from the outset - good one Cavebear

I'm not looking forward to next week

	Hydey is sorry Tired of ads?

On behalf of the OPTUS@HOME network I would like to apologize to Markus, Makeo and Deity.
Hydey could not connect to the internet until after 11 o'clock, 1 1/2 hours after start time.
Please feel free to disbelieve me and check with Optus@home. I am sure they will confirm that they had problems.

Once again I am sorry.

I got Cable to avoid such problems but alas I fell I am doomed.

Failing that I can play when ever on our Sunday (as long as the ****ing cale is working)

	2nd Session played.... Support Apolyton

OK, we played our second session in the normal Sat night time slot.

Things got much better for me. I'm now 2nd in the pg with only 18 cities; so from a crappy start and bad huts I'm back in the running IF the pg means anything

It's an interesting game with no war so far. We have two alliances which were declared BEFORE we knew of Cavebears ruling on NO alliances. So, as CB says, we now need to continue on the basis of alliances. IE:
Makeo and Hydey
against
deity and Markus
at the moment.

Makeo led with techs, I believe, and appears to have gone for a super growth strat with around 23(?) cities now. His cap is Size 26(?) I think, when all other civs are not over 12's yet in 600+AD. But Makeo's unit count is down... he must be up to something though
His ally Hydey has SunTzu and 18 cities.

Markus leads the pg with 30+ cities, 70+ units and a good few Wonders, but no one chasing Wonders in this game it seems.

A game with Makeo involves a certain amount of war paranoia

Hey, everyone post!

I must say I much prefer diplo games where politics and manipulating diplomacy plays a greater part.
A normal civ game can get a bit technical but civ is still the best game around!

	A weird thing.. Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Meant to say, a weird thing happened in this game.

A couple of my caras jumped 3 or 4 squares without a road!

And I've just looked at my save and realised in both instances it was at Latitude 51.

Any clues? Markus was host, not me.

Never seen this before.

	The Tourney Rlues Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

Suggested Rules by Cavebear:

I think these should be used as the general rules in each game, but if all the players in a specific game wish to make some other choices, that is OK. I suggest you stick with these unless your game has already started or unless a couple of them are objected to by everyone in a game:

Incremental Rush Buying - OK
Ship Chaining - NO
Gifting cities/units/caravans - NO
Hitting wait so a plane doesn't crash - NO
Formal Strategic Alliances - NO
Continuing to build a wonder after its been built - OK
Tech stealing, Embassies, sabotage - OK
Caraporting - NO
Adjusting city resources during a turn to maximize trade benefits - OK
Building an Airbase to increase production - NO
City/Unit trading/bribing- NO
-----
just a reminder for our group but too late to change the alliance thing.

	Interesting times... Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Markus still leads the pg/Wonders/cities/units but I'm doing OK in 2nd spot.
Makeo is keeping Markus busy with War in the 1000+AD era which has been quite interesting. Makeo launched a 'Cannon stack' in a beeline for Antium - Markus key Wonder city. He fell just short and didn't have the backup to follow through.
I was expecting Hydey to attack me more and so far he's only knocked out a diplo but I've stolen heaps of techs. I think Markus is attacking Hydey too??
I see now Cavebear's wisdom in no alliances but we are stuck with them until one civ goes under; then we should cancel alliances I reckon.
Good game, anything can happen and Hydey is catching up again.

	Hydey attacks deity! Increase Your PM Length

Well, he launched a massive attack on my western fortress but I held out, then he attacks by sea and knocks out two of my northern ports. He's got stacks of units so I got a big job in front of me!

His timing was good and unexpected......

I think Makeo lost 4 cities to Markus... after Markus had lost one big city to Makeo (since recaptured)... Does this mean Hydey is the only one NOT to lose a city???? Humph!

Diety is a incredably cheap player. Diety build a railroad system for hydy right through his land so he could attack me directly. I didn't have that many units left around because makeo had been attacking me all game, while hydy and diety where constantly building up units to sneak attack me later. I then retired because there is no way i am going to play with 3 openly allied players all attacking me at once. I also retired from the tourny as this wasn't what i signed up for.
