Update... taking a second look at that "veteran" two decker of mine, it seems to have been riddled pretty badly along with another one of my ships underneath it.

Serious question for Spain: How'd you lose 3 two deckers along with that lil o' brig?

Well Galvy... You modesty flatters me to my very core, and you just about seduced me into signing it over, but thankfully, I came to my senses. It wasn't in the agreement when I inherited the British reins. Not that it's completely scratched from the negotiating block but I have a little too much vested interest in it right now to just willingly hand it over.

Well I do my best nice, friendly and handsome Alibaster

Seriously speaking, ok I didn't know that Lisbon was excluded from the deal, I just took over but nobody told me anything

. I waited the whole time next to your doorsteps to take over, so don't feel threatened by the 100 units in your close neighbourhood

I will withdraw them.

AEGIS cruisers??? Are we playing the same scen? Do we live in the same timeframe? The Spanish government would like to know what a AEGIS-cruiser is, looks like the Swedish navy is light-years ahead of us, want to do some techtrading?

According to your question: I looked at the Defence Minister and according to him I didn’t loose 3 Two-Decker. To be Honest I wouldn’t even know when I had lost these ships because I only crashed accidentally this one Brig and I don’t attacked your Merchant either. I propose, as all of your cities are now captured to make a Peacetreaty so such things will never happen again, perhaps you can do this in your turn.

Whew! I can finally stop losing sleep over this! I spent all day yesterday just trying to figure out which galvatron that was! There are SO many!!!!!

conmcb25 · December 10, 2002, 10:58

Galvatron? Who is Galvatron?

Alibaster · December 10, 2002, 18:59

Sorry guys... I'm out for a little while, my computer took a surge of some sort... no CD player and it took some finaggling just to get the modem to be detected again by both POST and Windows... not sure when I'll be able to get around to fixing it.

Alibaster · December 11, 2002, 01:45

I'm able to cripple along a little further... thanks to Duke of Marlbrough from CivFan... No CD patch(MGE) in the civ II utils section seemed to do the trick. This is on top of Cedric's CivII to MPGE patch so this is somewhat just shy of miraculous in my book

Back to business...
Galvy... did you ctrl-n? that might explain the losses... three two deckers you lost according to my casualty report. And a crippled merchant just makes zero sense.

I'd still like to hear from France about the frigate/brig incident in the North Sea...

BUMP BUMP BUMP ALIBASTER!!!

Alibaster · December 15, 2002, 17:25

Damn those things are cute... give me a smidgeon

conmcb25 · December 16, 2002, 09:37

Bill it has been two weeks and the natives are getting restless. Glavatron asked me today if this PBEM is dead? So you need to have a "stiff upper lip, mate" and play on.

Galvatron · December 16, 2002, 09:48

Oh it's Alibaster. I even forgot whose turn it is and also that I’m in this game

It has been a long time since the last one played, right?

Alibaster · December 16, 2002, 12:37

Attempt to get back into form...

Incident in the North Sea...
England wishes to pursue peace with both Spain and France... I reccomend that we reset our attitudes and persue something more permanent so "accidents" like this don't happen in the future.

Darius871 · December 16, 2002, 12:46

Dammit, was hoping you wouldn't notice or you'd forget in light of the incident with Spain. France will compensate you with 100, as long as you improve your attitude!

France has already lost 2 brigs from bumping into your ships, but we didn't complain.

Alibaster · December 16, 2002, 12:46

Incident in the Mediterranean....

Not sure if Spain failed to ctrl-n... but it's rumored(that 3 Spanish two deckers) were sunk. This has escalated well beyond just a renade Spanish brig opening fire on one of my capital ships. I implore Sweden to check it's casualty report as well to insure that there was no foul play on my part regarding the sinkings.

One of my brig's sunk by a Spanish two decker.

conmcb25 · December 16, 2002, 12:48

Darius

Are your big ships picking on the little ships, AGAIN. How many times do I have to tell you that picking on little ships is not nice.!

Wow France and England at war? When did that happen? Darius you running a scret war we didn't know about till Alibaster caught you?

Alibaster · December 16, 2002, 12:59

I'm suspecting this is the two decker that was hit by the Spanish brig... clearly something hit this stack more than once.

conmcb25 · December 16, 2002, 13:27

Oh NO Bill had got Hyper Snap DX.

We will get olts of pretty pictures now.

Well Galvy are you going to admit to picking on Bills ships?

Galvatron · December 16, 2002, 15:19

Guys you can hit me with a stick but I can't remember ramming something into your ships in the may-turn

I think it must be a CTRL-thingy because as you see I immediately post it when I accidentally destroy something

gonzo_for_civ · December 17, 2002, 00:53

I don't see a save yet but I think I'm up next....

And to think I was coming to this thread to apologize for being late since I hadn't checked it in a few days

Alibaster · December 17, 2002, 11:39

Dublin muskets to Bayonne

I have adjusted my attitude towards Spain and France but my envoys were turned back... I urge both to do the same enabling to forge something more permanent.

It would also be appreciated if the Strait of Gibraltar could remain free of traffic... my interests arround the Mediterranean are trade only.

As you can clearly see at the moment the Spanish navy is very busy to...well sail around

(yup, heavy traffic down there, won't tell you where I'm going) but I think in a few turns I'm there...wherever and the straits are all clear again.

Prussia?

Is someone playing for Choke?

Does anyone want to play for choke?

Galvatron · December 19, 2002, 14:02

Why?

Where is Choke? Was he eaten by zombies?
