Turn 2134.

I did some further adjustments that wasn't in the preturn update switching crawlers between 2 mineral resources and 1 mineral resources.

Kody · September 6, 2003, 20:49

Well base 8 that's new.

Base three used to be a probe team, they changed it to a RC because of a new beauracy drone caused by them exceeding the limit.

Keep up the good work Honghu.

Kody · September 7, 2003, 09:31

Preturn update assuming 2137 VW build.
This is the harder one to do, so doing it first.

SE adjustments

Change SE settings to 50% 0% 50%.

Why don´t we call the probes what they are: Crimson Guards.

As for the updates:
Where are the nice big pictures?

Now I will have to go to my dusty office and start a holovid-projection on my own. Pah.

@Comrade Kody:
Great work! With that amount of planning we will make our glorious communist ancestors very proud...!

I just wonder why I am online at MSN half a day but never have been invited to a session...

Kody · September 9, 2003, 11:10

I don't have your email address, and most of the others are too lazy to start MSN conversations. In fact I think the others are avoiding me.

Add censored

The reason why there isn't any picture is because it's the preturn update. That turn hasn't been done yet.

Snowflake · September 9, 2003, 15:00

Do we need to change production plan in favor of building defensive probes?

Oh, I know that. But the last working image posted in this thread is 10 days old.

I have just been wondering.

I added you to my contact list. See you there

We already have defensive probes planned, and most of our coastal cities are difficult to get to.

Vev · September 9, 2003, 19:51

It would have been nice if the quake triggered by the Drones was mentioned here, for the benefits of the Hivers. It was posted in the embassy forums at CGN. While I respectfully kept this thread spam-free from me, because I use it to keep up to date with the current status, I was disappointed that the Turn Update thread was not being used to bring up all important past events up to speed.

Kody · September 10, 2003, 09:14

Turn update 2135.

Killed a mindworm. Got 10 ECs.
Met pirates.
Buster had and malfunctioning pod that made an earthquake we're now connected to the drones via land.

Also we've got the PTS built, 100% certain we're going to get it. HGP is also getting built, 100% certain we're going to get it.

Save file is being put here. The turn is only awaiting the trading items that result from the pirate diplomancy.

http://apolyton.net/upload/files/Kod...Addtrading.zip

I decided to do this turn on my own as the mircomanagement takes a long time. Also Rokossovky and Jamski were missing..... Okay the real reason was because I've been waiting so long to build those SPs and I couldn't wait any longer.

Snowflake · September 10, 2003, 09:33

After the earth quake HongHu KongHu looks like very secure now.

Snowflake · September 10, 2003, 09:46

Marshal started college so must be quite busy getting into it. Jamski had a three-day party so he must be catching up with his ~~sleeps~~ ~~ceiling painting~~ work right now. Hopefully they'll both get back before too late.

Vev · September 10, 2003, 19:10

Yay! Mindworm harvesting!

Snowflake · September 10, 2003, 23:27

Oh my report.

Again, nothing significant here.

Kody · September 10, 2003, 23:31

Looks like they're trying to replicate our crawler strategy.

I think we can remember that all the factions have "IN, CE, PN, IE, IA". That should save you a little bit of typing.

Good work honghu.

The fact the Pirates don't have applied and biogenetics means that if the pirates wish to trade for those, the cycon and pirates aren't in a very strong pact.

Kody · September 12, 2003, 05:40

Voltaire,

All you need to do is click endturn, on the below save file to complete the turn.

Don't change anything. There's a few things that may seem incorrect (like HGP 2 turns until completion). However, building the PTS gives us extra workers that give extra minerals and put new workers on some of the resources.

http://apolyton.net/upload/files/Kod...Addtrading.zip

Kody · September 16, 2003, 00:32

Turn 2136

Buster got another earthquake.

Peace offered a treaty and we accepted.

We built PTS, HGP.

We built Vevtopia, which is building another colony pod.

We killed another mindworm.

Sorry that I didn't get the preturn up in time.

Vev · September 16, 2003, 01:01

Wohoo, go Vevtopia. Do I sense a secret capitalist amongst our ranks

.

Given the proximity to long rivers perhaps we need to set up Rowing races with teams from Vevtopia and HongHu KongHu.

Jamski · September 16, 2003, 02:59

Drones got an earthquake?

We really need that Permapact now....

-Jam

Snowflake · September 16, 2003, 09:44

Oh so we are now connected to each other? I thought Kody said that they have indicated their willingness of permpact. What is the current status?

EZRhino · September 16, 2003, 13:36

We are at the top of the powerchart!

Snowflake · September 16, 2003, 22:49

Ok my report.

Report 2136:

Teams	Haves	Have Nots	Votes
Univ	BioGen, IN, CE, PN, IE, IA	AP, Loyalty	12
CC	BioGen, IN, CE, PN, IE, IA, AP	Loyalty	14
PEACE	IN, CE, PN, IE, IA	BioGen, AP, Loyalty	15

SP: believers VW; Angels ME in three bases

Drones' production
base 1: former 2 turns
base 2: SC 2 turns
base 3: SC 5 turns
base 4: SC 2 turns
base 5: SC 4 turns
base 6: SC 2 turns
base 7: Network Node 0 turns
base 8: SC 9 turn

Nothing changed much except for the pop growth for CC and PEACE, and Drones changed DP to Node in base 7. What is strange is when I check the scores, it looks like this for the Hive:
pop +27
commerce +8
Tech +8
SP +50
victory +1000
Total: +93
(color added by me to stress the strange point)

What does the victory line mean? Are we already qualified for a victory or something?

The total score did not reflect it though, obviously because we didn't really have a victory.

Vev · September 16, 2003, 22:51

GLORY TO THE HIVE. FOR WE HAVE WON!!!!

Kody · September 16, 2003, 23:06

That's how many bonus points we get if we win.

About those network nodes. Do the drones now have 4 network node??

Edit:
It's only there if we get SPs I think.

Snowflake · September 16, 2003, 23:46

I was sure it was not there before. And it was not there for the Drones.

Kody · September 17, 2003, 11:31

Hrmmm good work by the way.

Change hill name to "Brokenheart Hill"

Snowflake · September 20, 2003, 10:46

change breakheart hill to brokenheart hill?

Kody · September 20, 2003, 18:33

The grammar for "Brokenheart Hill" sounds wrong to me "Heartbreak Hill" sounds correct. However, I've updated the preturn update for the rename.
