Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

As I said it was habit and had since left your trade routes alone. So be it prepare for death Quinns.

Capitol? encouraging to see your maps are as poorly constructed as your army Gravol lol. Humm last time I looked at game end you did not even have agricultural rev. yet lol nice try. Fear not that little start up city has been replaced x2 while your lone Musket walks to his doom. I will extract revenge swiftly and without remorse. Feel free to grovel at anytime. Unlike the overaged child Quilt I am ready to listen. Don't bother with groveling Quilt your fate is sealed you have the previous game files view them lol.

What am I supposed to say? Very rare I am lost for words, but after staring at the reply screen for 5 minutes I just realised - there is no rational response - Hell's Teeth did I lose the plot somewhere down the line... We are aged between 35 and 44??

I know that you two are gonna point fingers at each other and say it was him ... I am not Interested .... All I want to do is play CTP, and enjoy a bit of light hearted Banter ..

Ice I am sure on reflection you recognise that your comments were probably a little too personal towards Quinns, and Quinns, I am sure you recognise that Ice was not meaning to be deliberately offensive... In England we call this a misunderstanding, and as mature Adults we laugh it off and carry on - I suggest we continue this game at a time convenient to all parties, and never mention this again, alternatively we can all try and have the last word, destroy half a dozen games involving five different people and worse still make my lone Musketeer ever so cross.....

Ice is way way ahead on the Powergraph Paul, but I know why now... I started a game against Ice earlier this week, after been tutored by Ice the week before- And Ice, correct me if I am wrong... But am I ahead on the Powergraph... I cannot remember...

Paul, we never use the tricks at all, none of us that play in our games do.

I tried playing the game with the trick against Blackstone, but I guess you need to know how to use it... Blackstone massacred me... But I thought we were playing an Islands game... I had a small Island he had a massive continent!LOL

Lol Paul, Gav

Land game Paulino1 for the most part. I never make game predictions, land is such a key factor so we will have to wait until it is over. Quinns is a great game and now Gav is ripping the power graph too so we will wait and see. Moral of the story tell all and have better games lol Nope no bugs never do.

Quinns you warmonger you Maybe 9 edt I could say yes to?

Ok it has been confirmed Gav's troops have been stricken by "microwave hamburger" food poisoning they are absent in the fields.

Quinn's troops have fallen down to serious "kneecap deformities" to much breeding I would say

Good game.

man i hate cavalry lol
you say land is often the key lol
why do you think i like the gran settler trick
reduces the advantage a lot so does money.

When using the trick use it too get 24 cities or so.
Do nothing but rush buy a settler every time a city is about to go up too 2. This and getting cravans is the only use for the trick. The use stops after you have all your cities. Then you actually build your graneries.

Suffering from ads?

yeah you can use the trick, to get pikemen for 540 gold. But when they only take 1 or 2 turns to build it seems pretty dumb to use it for that. If you have no guys in your city and need 1 urgently then it is worth while, but not generally.

really 5 turns
****, i dont remember the last time i built any units at 5 turns lolol
maybe a battleship a while ago lol, ive never build nukes at more than 4 turns lol.
do you build mills as soon as you get them ?
after that shouldnt take more than 2 turns,
Do you place workers on mountains or forest, or anything that gives you some production?
Please tell me you dont make them all entertainers like the AI lol

Happy too give any advice if you want it or need it (-:
i generally am quite friendly, when you catch me on a good day.

LOL Paul........ please bare in mind nothing I say is serious.. - The analogy I used with Pikemen/temples was a poor one - So I added a bit of humour..... Yep I work the mountains almost as hard as ice does, Yup I switch to Mills the second I get Ag Rev, and I use the shortest tech path there.

We all use bluff in this game..... Ice claims he is 6 turns from Communism in 3400BC, Quinns splats us with his unfriendly overtures, and I sit in the background pleading weakness awaiting the right moment.....

I think you will be playing Ice soon... I would also like to challenge you in a few weeks when I have got a few wins under my belt (to make it worth your while points wise)..... Gotta be an Islands game....... I know you like em, well likewise here.... Much better game altogether.......

ive only ever used the trick for the occasional pikeman
nothing else,
not ecconmical to use it for units,
better to speed it on buildings, buying mills and factories.
The trick only has a use for settlers and carravans nothing else.
Trust me i know

I love island games, they are much faster and far less luck.
There is much less movement of units early and very few of those cheating ruins.
