Welcome,Killer.

okies, 5 players, we have lift off! I'll set it up tomorrow, was planning to do that today but a family emergency (my dads wireless LAN had to be configured and he had 'his birthday too) kept me busy all day.

Good to see plenty of good players interested, PP asked me to participate as well, but after giving it some thoughts, I've come to the conclusion that SGs (at the moment) just aren't my kind of thing, as are epic single player games in general, as I haven't played one in a long time already, since the ISDG started actually.

So I probably wouldn't have been able to give the game the commitment a SG requires either, therefore I suppose you're better off without me anyway. Good luck with the game, I'll still try to follow the thread at a regular basis of course, since, as pp said, I have done quite a few space ship vics myself as well on previous occasions.

It's all systems go,take it away,Proppers.[goodjob]
Pity that Kemal feels unable to participate but there you go.[sad]

I took a gamble by building granary first. It means delaying contacts and first settler. otoh, now we can build a settler every 4 turns.

GL to the next player and please take care MM'ing our settler fac.

Looking good PP!

What's the roster like?

Very nice turn log,PP.We should be able to churn out settlers,now,very quickly.
As PP hasn't left an order of play,I suggest the following order of play to get the show up and running.
Propain. (played)
Beam (up now)
Steaton (on deck)
Col.Tarleton.
Lt Killer.
If that is agreeable,take the next turn,Beam.
Strict 24 hr,Got it,48 hr play........as if[lol]
So,take it away,Beam,and bon voyage.[coool]

Playing (with flu, hope you won't be infected).

Pre-turn:
Set governor to Emphasize Production.

-3000 - T1:
Grow to 6, adjust slider. BG to For. for Settler next turn.

-2950 - T2:
Settler, adjust slider.

-2900 - T3:
Worker finishes road, moves to BG for mining

-2850 - T4:
Mining, settler moves to tile NW and NE of wheats :)
Next settler and growing in 3.

-2800 - T5:
A Korean Spear finds us, Wang Kon gives Alpha + 10 for Masonry. Accepted. Writing at min.

Breda is founded. :)

-2750 - T6:
Not a lot.

-2710 - T7:
Settler. It moves to the area N of Breda.

-2670 - T8:
Zzzz.

-2630 - T9:
Idem.

-2590 - T10:
Idem.

-2550 - T11:
Settler. It moves SW.

-2510 - T12:
Worker > Worker in Breda, road on Wheat to keep Breda happy at size 2.

One move of the N settler is used to scout terrain from a mountain. Wow, Marsh and Forest but there is a nice tile next to a river where it will move next turn.

-2470 - T13:
The SW settler meets a Barb stack :(

IT:
We lose the settler.

-2430 - T14:
Fucking Farmer Gambit is founded NNE of Breda. > Warrior.

IT:
Closest Barb fortyfies.

-2390 - T15:
Mwah.

-2350 - T16:
Settler, the factory is running nominal now. :) It moves NE.

-2310 - T17:
CI worker moves to the last tile that's part of the SF.

-2270 - T18:
Europoort is founded NE of CI. > Curragh.

IT:
Forest chop puts shields in CI instead of Breda.

-2230 - T19:
Settler in CI, thanks to the chop.

1 turn to go, it is key to discuss where to move the settler now. 2 more barbs are SW of the one visible. It is the natural direction for founding the next city but we need units to clear the area. Other wise we can go N of Europoort, the Korean spear came from there > less change of barbs.

"Fucking farmer gambit",I like it.[lol]
Until we build some troops I think that settling N of Europoort is the only option.
Bad luck with the suicidal settler.
It seems that Chicken Pizza is indeed a settler factory,well done PP.[goodjob]
