We found an Assyrian horse near Eufrat. The horse has been destroyed.
We found an Assyrian horse near Tigris. The horse has been destroyed.
We found an Assyrian Chariot II in the city of Kurigalzu. The Chariot has been destroyed. Kurigalzu has been sacked. Gold and valuable papers were taken. No traces about Didanu.

Edit:
Kurigalzu was renamed to a nice Babylonian name Hourigalzur. (new save, only city name was changed)
The traders of Hourigalzur salute their Minoan friends and are promising to continue deliveries of Gems to Amnisos.

After Zedanu seems to have suffered a bout of memory loss, the affairs of state have been assesed and stand thus....

The future bodes ill for our small nation. Kurigalzu was a prominent city, and a stronghold against the assault from Babylon. Its loss speaks highly of our enemy's strength.

In numbers uncounted, the Chariots of Egypt swept unseen and unhindered up the valley of the Orontes River, destroying all in their path! The cities of Malazgirt and ikni are smoking ruins, and the Assyrian dead lie everywhere in heaps and piles! The left wing of the Egyptian army has encircled Tartous and will claim it next turn, while the main force prepares to unleash its devastating fury upon Ish-Mandaroun and Karkemish!

Everywhere the Armies of Assyria are in full retreat, while Horus soars victorious on high.

How heart warming it is to hear the world cheer your extinction, But where will the heralds of greed and hatred turn when assyria is no more.....

When all the world is green (as it nearly is today) I will laugh from from my solitude, and mourn no enemy.

Our technically oriented nation understands nothing from the rhetorical Assyrian language.

Or did Zedanu improve the unclear and indefinite diplomatic language of his predecesors?

What is "end of days"? A suicide happened?

The sober realization that Assyria can't win a war of "One against Six", and that defeat is no longer just a concept - but now a stark reality.

Just some in-character rambling after 48 hours on just 4 hrs sleep. I would say Kull got the "jist" of it. I havn't looked at the save files yet but it sounds pretty bleak for assyria, plus it was a quick way to make a verbal jab at the agressors.

"Zedd counting down his days in this game, and making sure to get his +1's"

P.S.
I hope ST and the rest of you take no offense at my un-intelligable ramblings. You are all fine players and this game is simply reaching its inevitable conclusion, "Zedanu" is simply a fanatical militaristic leader and that is the character I chose to play. I have never played like that before so maybe I'm not very good at it, but I figure "ruffling some feathers" is all part of the job.

I'll be away on business/vacation the next two weeks, and won't have access to my home email. So if you need to contact me, please use the Apolyton IM. Internet access shouldn't be a problem, so my turn should proceed normally.

As usual, we visited one Assyrian city. This time it was Sippur, oh, sorry, the city has a nice Babylonian name of Zibbar now. We encountered several ground and naval units around the city, but they dissapeared soon. We take no responsibility for their disappearance. Zedanu is suggested not to allow his units to walk freely in the wilderness.
Next we want to continue on visiting Assyrian cities, but they are on rivers and our soldiers aren't happy with that because most of them cannot swim... Therefore we are preparing swimming courses for our army.

I apologize for being a problem, but I have a big issue with the save file.

In Ekallate city walls were due to be completed this turn, this is verified in my posted save and the save from pharoh. However when I open the babylonian save I have no city walls and my productin was changed to spearmen.

I am not knowledgeable enough to understand what may have went wrong but i am SURE I hit cntrl-n, and I did check the minoan save and found my cities un-disturbed and un-changed.

Obviously this is a critical strategic issue for assyria, as well as a great expense of gold and units that went into the walls production. I have to insist that a resolution be found.

With further inspection I find that several of my cities have changed production.

Did someon initiate a MP game or meet with any ministers?

My understanding is that these are the likely causes for a incident like this.

Again I apologize for the further delay in game play but this is crucial to assyrian intrests.

\Edit\

Sorry ST but all the saves except for yours have the correct info. I surmise that you had an MP session durring your turn and the ministers must have reset the build order in my cities.
You know how to hex edit, if there is a way to correct the file i am OK with that, but if not, you should replay.
As I understand the problem is likely to be the same for all players.

Zedd - This can happen whenever you lose a city, and it is easy to fix. Start civ2dip and load the Bab 2750BC save. Click "repair", and then load the Assyrian 2760BC save. That should fix your productions.

	Another Glorious Victory! Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

Egyptian siege engines batter down the walls of Tartous and Sickle Swordsmen pour into the city, slaughtering all in their path. Far to the north, General Mekret spies the towering cloud of smoke pouring from the burning ruins and smiles in grim satisfaction.

But what is this? Scouts report that a battered Assyrian Chariot II division is retreating through the hills above the Orontes River. These foul criminals, slayers of the brave Tanis Chariot Brigade, must not escape! And so it comes to pass that before nightfall their fate is sealed, and every last Assyrian - driver and archer alike - lies crushed beneath the wheels of Horus' Finest. Their bleaching bones shall now serve as the waypost, marking the road toward Ish-Mandaroun, as the vast swarm of Pharoah's Chariots thunder on toward the next conquest!

What a great year for the Alliance !

But not much happened in Persia. Our Minister of Trade, the venerable Oonderstan Tabli Nerbus, was relieved that the first payment of gold finally came in. He has been reminded several times that Sinbad's coffers were fuller before he took office.
