Our mapmaker gave me a rather though start, but hey, it is emperor
with two settlers for the human. I ought to able to handle this.

Once the trees are gone this looks like a production rich region!

Don't forget that trees are cheap to chop in C3C and are now even more valuable as shields early on in the game.

turn 45

I was wrong about the production richness. Under every tree there is
just plain grassland! If have chopped loads of trees now. I build 2
workers and 4 warriors first in the two cities and then 2 granaries.

Meanwhile my scout got killed when the very first barb camps showed
up...

There are lots of barb stacks around my territory.

So I still only have contact with England but I am sure some ai will
show up in a while. With the mined gold I can do my own research and
sell it to the English.

I went for writing, horseback and now iron working. I forgot to go
for philosofy! Doh, that was stupid! Well, at least I know I have
horses and soon I know where the iron is...

I lack in score but have 2 settler factories producing warrior-settler
combo's.

Turn 61: The English demand 17 gold. It is all I have and I am running -1. There are about 6
English warriors in my territory (we have a ROP), near workers and cities...

I give in and lose the granary in my capitol!

Fucking AI!!!

Earlier in the game I met the Byzantines and got (still) Philo, with
CoL as a free tech. What are Irigy and the ai's doing? This was
enough to get on par again with the 2 ai's. Currently researching
Republic at full speed.

I think Irigy is at war with an ai or his ai's are fighting each
other. He was ahead in score till now. I recently passed him. If we
do have exactly the same continent I wonder with his approach has
been.

This game is moving very slowly. I finally contacted Irigy some days
ago when he suddenly was online on MSN - after he did sent anything
in months - and he told me suffered from some emailblocking by his
profider, unable getting my emails anymore. He said he sent me
emails telling me this but I recieved nothing. Somehow he did not got
my emails asking wtf was going on...

Anyway, we started again and I played my turn and I am waiting
for a save again. It has been two days now and I wonder how long it
will take

This is a Monarch game and it is easy. I have attacked this turn just
because I was bored. I havent finished upgrading all Chariots but
dont care anymore. I took 4 of the 5 beseiged cities and had terrible
dice (a couple of knights and Chariots got killed agains fortified
warriors and stuff). I forgot to take an 'after' screenshot. I will
do that once I get to play a turn again!

Here are some pics that I managed to get uploaded today!

My game with Irigy is also waaaay too slow, I have to hassle him all the time.

ERIKK · 15-05-2004, 13:28

Nothing heard from Irigy after I suprised him on MSN last week. I will sent the save again on all his emailadresses but I
think it is save to say that he doesn't care a bit about his pbem's...

hmm..me too, it was going well for a while then after 14th of April it all went pear shaped and we've played 1 turn since...Irigy said he has ISP problems.
