Well, it was rather eventful.

Two turns into my turn Germany and the Iroquis announced an alliance against us, and declared war offstage! Fortunately, Persia was also drawn in on our side. We didn't lose any territory, and held our own rather well. The Iroquis has a few remnants on our territiory, but I'm not worried. Our tank army is now built up.

We still haven't lost!

We lost our oil supply (exhausted!). I think the game hates us.
At least I was able to trade for some with Persia.

Our territory is much better developed.

Discovered Radio and Rocketry as an era bonus. We are now "modern," like everyone else.

Our army is built up, perhaps we can make a last gasp. A tank offensive with artillery support might have a chance.

Rotten999 · May 15, 2002, 22:59

Here's the save.

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 11:46

great...now all we need is to save every turn before attampting to put a spy in persia before checking to see how close they are to spaceship victory

Sorry I couldn't play my turn guys, I've had lots of studying to do recently, I've had several tests to finish covering what we've been studying before finals (which are next week.)

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 18:41

oh yeah it's my turn now...i'll get it done but give me time i'm tied up in both school (yes they tie me up

) and the NES, as well as the new upcoming NES

civman2000 · May 16, 2002, 22:14

I onl played 10 turns, sorry.

Science: bought computers

Foreign: Pulled germany, persia into war. Made RoP with Persia

Trade: Bought a supply of Aluminum Renewed oil trade

Domestic: Many anti-war riots

Military: In the process of building mech inf for every city. We ALMOST conquered zimbabwe, 2 defenders were left but the persians came in next turn with a huge army. We are currently putting all new tanks in a big stack near one iroq city, continue building till we have 10 or so.

Fearless_Mage · May 18, 2002, 03:42

civman2000 · May 18, 2002, 08:42

DhulKhidr · May 18, 2002, 10:57

Fearless_Mage · May 20, 2002, 00:19

trickey · May 20, 2002, 08:10

Fearless_Mage · May 21, 2002, 00:19

Fearless_Mage · May 22, 2002, 03:49

Waiting....

DhulKhidr · May 22, 2002, 09:13

Sorry, I am going to have to revise my estimate. I may not be able to get to this until tomorrow. If someone else wants to continue then just post a message to that effect and continue, otherwise I will post my save file tomorrow or Friday.

Jonny · May 22, 2002, 16:22

I'd take it, but I can't.

Right in the middle of finals.

But finals are over Friday!

civman2000 · May 22, 2002, 16:59

I'll pm rotten.

jongon · May 22, 2002, 20:38

sorry my computer crashed

Jonny · May 23, 2002, 15:16

Actually, I can play today (Thursday) if it's okay with DhulKhidr.

Only have one last final tomorrow, and it's one of my better subjects.

civman2000 · May 23, 2002, 16:48

ok

DhulKhidr · May 23, 2002, 22:02

yes, please go ahead.

Jonny · May 23, 2002, 23:33

I only played about 10 turns, sorry.

Quick rundown of events:

I moved out more units to continue our war against the Iroquois.

In 1902, we capture Isandhlwana from the Iroquois.

Now, all of our cities start to riot due to war weariness, but I can't sign a peace treaty because we have an alliance with the Persians and Germans and it would hurt our relations if broken. So, I start a revolution.

In 1906, we become Communist.

In 1912, we raze the city of Oil Springs.

Soon after that, Chairman Jonny of the Babylonian Communist Party retires.

We have 8 units somewhere (i forget exactly where) on a transport guarded by a destroyer. They are headed for Iroquois territory.

The file:

civman2000 · May 24, 2002, 10:33

sounds good

! How is our science doing in communism

Fearless_Mage · May 25, 2002, 03:59

next person go!!! please

trickey · May 25, 2002, 08:10

i dont know if its my turn, but im out (damn teachers always make us get our tests signed :sad: )

civman2000 · May 25, 2002, 08:42

rotten never even looked at my pm...i guess it's my turn then, I'll nhave the turns up probably tonight or this afternoon, but I have visitor/friend people coming to my house for the weekend so i might be too busy.

civman2000 · May 25, 2002, 12:12

OK, I only played 8 turns, but tons happened and it's a very nice stopping point.

Domestic: Lux up to 10%

Science: Discover fission.

Foreign: Alliance with persia renewed.

Trade: Bought furs, spices, and uranium from persia, renewed rubber trade, aluminum trade expired but I didn't renew it since we dont need it for anything so far. Traded gems to germany for dyes.

Military: 1924: Get GL Agum from victory and capture of Tyendenaga, make army at Isandhlwana of 2 tanks 1 mech inf->15/11, 13 hp.
1926: Persia beats us to and razes Niagara Falls (we had a huge army about to attack the next turn).
1928: Tyendaga revolts back to the iroqs! Our huge army razes Grand River (there would've been somewhere around 12 resisters, it was huge) and closes in on Tyendenaga. We get 6 workers from the raze.
1930: Tyendenaga recaptured, the iroqs are no more!!! Unfortunately, the loss of the alliances make the germans and persians not-so-friendly to us....

Advice: Make every city build 1-2 settlers, and use the railroads to blitz into the big open space that comes from all the iroq cities persia razed. WE will be able to get most of that territory for ourselves if we act quickly! We have lots of mech inf to defend the cities left over from the war. I recommend moving the army to a big stack, maybe in the just-built fortress outside canterbury, though if you want to put em somewhere else feel free. It might also be a good idea to try switching back to democracy, though our army will be quite expensive to maintain...

Got it. Tomorrow.
