[21:17] Hi Cyc! [21:17] I get the feeling my instructions aren't detailed enough but I don't have anything more to say [21:17] BTW, what the heck kind of name is "Sugar n' Spice" [21:17] lol [21:17] for a province? [21:17] a very bad one [21:17] more over I'm gonna be leaving soon and I'm not sure if I'll be back in time for the begaining of the t/c [21:17] we are going to get our butts kicked over that one I'd wager... [21:17] So, who named it? [21:17] but at some odd middle-of-the-night hour.... [21:17] Shouri [21:17] it's a province of girls? [21:17] that's my best guess [21:17] Sugar n' spice and everything nice [21:17] a "sweet" Province [21:17] I have no defense... 12:4( [21:17] Candy land [21:17] Sugar Mountain [21:17] It could always be "Amai Province" (Sweet Province) [21:17] 3:4) [21:17] there were some spices in the province... [21:17] and it was meant to only be temporary (and quickly forgotten) hmmm [21:17] LOL... now it is part of our heritage [21:17] * FortyJ is going to have to be more careful with his "temporary province names" [21:17] Amaiken (Amei Prefecture) [21:17] Sweet Province (Amai Prefecture) [21:17] Forget it...

[21:20] Let's keep the chat rated PG-13. 3;4) [21:20] Bill - the alliance isn't even up for renegotiation until turn 4. [21:20] CT, have you watched PG-13 movies lately, IMHO the standards are "changing" for the worse [21:21] I think Eyrei was a little confused when he typed that [21:21] Then... rated G 3:4D [21:21] how about PG... that's decent [21:21] * Chieftess has noticed that Falc...

[21:54] anyway I couldn't post them for the longest time [21:54] The Chinese used smoke signals too for war information to the capital. [21:55] I saw it on The Discovery Channel a year or so ago [21:55] tardy by about 12 minutes [21:55] okay [21:55] that's not that bad [21:55] 2 poor CT, they use rockets and shot the message away ;) [21:55] nah, I've been later [21:56] hmm... could someone please explain to me why the Iros will not accept the deal that was polled on? [21:56] * Falcon02 is reminded of the first space pioneer, a Chinese man who put tons of rockets on a chair and had a friend of his light the fuse.... he wanted to get to the moon, we don't know if he succeeded cause he was never seen or heard from again [21:56] true story too [21:56] they won't accept!?!? [21:57] !! [21:57] :O [21:57] :O [21:57] WHAT!!!!!!!! [21:57] Are you sure you're giving them banking? [21:57] 2 who is the Trade Leader?

[21:57] 2 ;) [21:57] But the Trade department is empty [21:57] hum [21:57] It works in the save I have [21:57] It was: [21:57] Iroquois: [21:57] can we lower the gold to 1 or 0 ? [21:58] you didn't open that in PTW did you CT? [21:58] 760AD, correct? [21:58] CT? [21:58] it's 670AD [21:58] *670 [21:58] 2 dun dun dun dun...

[21:58] It's the "old" diplo screen [21:58] hmmm... something wrong then with the save [21:59] Ok, are you sure we're offering banking? [21:59] is this the first preturn item? [21:59] * Xerex believe he has encountered bargains where the computer would accept a deal and when he tried the same deal again, the computer wanted more... [21:59] I'm wondering if gunning screwed up the polls... [22:00] sometimes, they won't accept a deal you put up, but if you ask them what they'll offer, they give you the same deal... [22:00] do the Iroquois accept the trade without the gold?? [22:00] hm k [22:00] but maybe we can do the deal without the gold? [22:00] Yes, the Zulu deal was screwed up [22:00] but you say the deals worked on your save CT? [22:00] It should have been gunpowder for furs and banking [22:00] yeah [22:01] :hmm: [22:01] uh oh [22:01] the iroquois will not even accept a straight banking for astronomy trade [22:01] And, gunning had trouble with the polls [22:01] I'm checking [22:01] arg! [22:01] Can't trade do ANYTHING without me? [22:01] 3-4_3- [22:01] no [22:01] :-D [22:01] haha [22:01] doh!

[22:02] I don't think that matters Civ [22:02] Ok, you know what?

[00:00] nope [00:00] nope [00:01] Bavaria: Pikeman --> Library [00:01] hehe.. I was just looking at future tech stuff on CNN. This sort of reminds me of a Civ3 techtree http://www.business2.com/images/mag/B2_Timeline_Intro.pdf [00:02] Future Tech anyone? [00:02] traders inn has 3 pikemen and is still producing one... i dont see how that can be usefull - the city has no culture and i fear a flip... [00:02] Shimonoseki: Pikeman --> Granary [00:02] k [00:02] New Falcon's Nest: Pikeman --> Knight [00:02] good [00:02] we don't need more pikes, Mr. President [00:03] haha [00:03] it's all we'll be getting for a few turns [00:03] cyc you saying we need to go through another "preturn" to replace all the pikes with muskets? [00:03] the saltpeter near Eklektochtitlan vanished just as you said that [00:03] cant we change the pikemen in production to musketmen?? [00:03] hehe [00:03] not now we can't [00:03] :O [00:04] we lost our salpeter :O [00:04] 3:4( [00:04] ouch [00:04] we have another unconnected [00:04] :( [00:04] that was bad [00:04] it's easy with the Military Leaders screen [00:04] how long before we can connect it??? [00:04] At least we have one left... [00:04] how long before we can connect it??? [00:05] quite a few turns, I'd say [00:05] at least 5 [00:05] if not more [00:05] maybe we shouldn't be build muskets. Let's stick with pikes [00:05] * Octavian_X decides not to curse... [00:05] It could be a sign... :-) [00:05] i believe we need to change all pikemen in production to musketmen asap - its foolish to train our men in old-type warfare when we know it is obsolite :/ [00:05] that's my estimate, given the percentage of foreign workers we have [00:06] Pikes are more efficient, actually ;) [00:06] get them there now [00:06] We should dedicate all workers possible to the project... [00:06] other wise our trades were foolish [00:06] no, we still want to get to Mil tradition ASAP [00:06] so they would not have been foolish either way [00:06] :) [00:06] one or two turns more production is better than thousands of gold to upgrading! [00:08] Actually, I think I'm going to annoy everybody and stop the chat. I think the Pike vs Musket issue needs to be discussed under the circumstances [00:08] I agree. [00:08] ack [00:08] ok [00:09] ? [00:09] saving up and shutting down [00:09] arg, okay [00:09] 3-4_3- [00:09] I've heard your arguement before Ek. But i still like Muskets better [00:09] * Chieftess shakes her head [00:09] For once, a short TC [00:09] But, why argue it if we can't upgrade now? [00:10] because it means we can decide whether or not to connect our backup saltpeter [00:10] the amount of effort in getting a road to the saltpeter, CT [00:10] Brb, dinner [00:10] *** CivGeneral is now known as CG_Eating [00:10] cya cg [00:10] we _must_ connect us to the last salpeter! [00:10] of course [00:11] where's the nearest Saltpeter though? [00:11] if we produce pikemen now we are wasting money [00:11] directly SW of the Burrow [00:11] I disagree [00:11] by Strider's [00:11] the tile SW next to the burrow [00:12] if we switch to musket's it could be argued we're wasting production time [00:12] ok [00:12] if we're attacked with only pike's we could lose [00:12] if we produce pikemen we must upgrade them another step - that will cost alot [00:13] we may keep the pikes just for police, no upgrade neccisarily required [00:13] I'm not saying we should go one way or the other just yet, I'm just saying there's reasons for both sides [00:14] we have a fantikan worker close to striders heaven. if it hasn't been moved since that turn it will take one turn to get it on the salpeter tile [00:14] we can garrison cities with more pikes than we could Muskets. overall we'd get more HP for less shields [00:14] k [00:15] END OF TURNCHAT [00:15] but we do have barracks in a lot of cities and i think we earn more on having less hp that can be regenerated than loosing a unit...
