Another thing i´m not sure it is wanted. Level I equipment is completely available. Planes, ships, artillery....all the stuff. Wanted ? Expected to start "naked" as in Rise of Nations.

TheArchduke -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/18/2009 9:45:30 PM)
Just sent the game. I remembered it.:D

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/18/2009 10:17:26 PM)
Richard did me a favor in making the game. He made it with suggestions I made...and also named the areas. I appreciated that. If he left in initial tech it should still be interesting to play. Best Regards, Arditi[:)]

george1972 -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 2:39:59 AM)
Turn to Tom. I don't mind the initial tech. In RON it was all very expensive and empires that got a bit lucky in their discoveries early on, could get a strong tech advantage that would allow them to expand even faster. At least now we have something to play with [;)]

Hi George, I did not get and think my yahoo mail may be blocking you. Can you reply to email I sent you and resend?

george1972 -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 4:04:52 AM)
Resent the turn...

tweber -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 4:20:37 AM)
Hi George, Did not get, can you also try my gmail account?

george1972 -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 7:46:18 AM)
Now also sent to you g-mail account... I hope it get's there.

tweber -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 12:06:35 PM)
Turn 1 sent. Here is my start. The tanks are nice but the terrain is very difficult. R&D is twice as much as the previous game though you start out with 500 pp which is almost enough for 2 level 2 upgrades. Only trick is to put an empty unit in the production center so you start next turn with a ship that can move. [image]local://upfiles/25598/D8E2A1FCA43A4329B4041D5EE3AB76C8.jpg[/image]

TheArchduke -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 2:17:34 PM)
Did not think of that one. Wow, already lost a turn.;)

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 5:41:22 PM)
Turn sent gents. Did everybody start with tanks? Curious. Tom, I see your enhanced infantry/military village. Best Regards, Arditi[:)] My start... [image]local://upfiles/17108/6BE97C4B0F7A4B81BE9FC8AFE1F75F28.jpg[/image]

Ah, is that what the "(B)" stands for? If I build enhanced engineers, will they gain EP more quickly than regular engineers? [:D]

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 6:28:08 PM)
Interesting question. I don't know.[:)]

[:D] I did not edit the file before start so I do not know what was done. My guess is that the B people have a combat modifier that makes them more effective. There is no way to selectively increase the engineer point growth of a sftype. You would have to have a separate SFtype for this.

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 8:05:50 PM)
Tom, I never knew that trick. Very interesting. Me needy turny...me needy.... Best Regards, Arditi[:)] By the way, I need to kick your 1st place prize, for the other game, to you Tom. Let me know where to send....and what you want from the listed choices. I'll list other prizes for this game this weekend.

seille -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 8:44:12 PM)
That trick i knew and used myself. Think this is a legal one. And it gives definitely a small advantage. But to choose the right direction to move the ship to is the pure luck.... For the combat modifier for the barbarians: Isn´t this visible in the game stats ?

seille -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 8:46:23 PM)
Where is the turn now ? I´m waiting.... Yes, i know i´m impatient [;)]

TheArchduke -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 9:22:27 PM)
And sent on. Sorry I was at a concert for 2 hours.;) My island has no cities apart from my capital, yay.

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 10:09:06 PM)
Ok Gents, Here are some of the prizes. Tom had to decline his prize for last game and the game was still a bit inconclusive for the other rankings, so the earlier prizes are also up for grabs. I know that Juergen is a bibliophile like myself, so I listed a couple of books from my library as prizes. First place gets first and so on... I will list more later. oops, have to resize....try this... [image]local://upfiles/17108/100CC3561DDC412997FABC48E601DC05.jpg[/image]

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 10:17:03 PM)
Potential prize, but we have to find her first. [;)] [image]local://upfiles/17108/7F0016F966404A29A89BAFC7077B73A7.jpg[/image]

seille -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 10:21:04 PM)
Sent my turn. Close to my starting position i found a village, but not the 1.5 one. Maybe next turn.... Interesting books Russ. Yes, i like to read books about ww2. But also history in general.

haha...she is an impressive young lady at that. Here is the last book. Regards, Arditi[:)] [image]local://upfiles/17108/B48D552439554853AAF97BA21FA83A7A.jpg[/image]

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/19/2009 11:02:02 PM)
Oh Yea, Here is the last proposed book. It's actually the followup to the Lawrence book..." Arditi of Arabia". This book is flying off the shelves. ;) [image]local://upfiles/17108/63ABC845F9934452B3BA1F6CA6939C8D.jpg[/image]

george1972 -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/20/2009 1:24:38 AM)
Turn to Tom. My first transport fleet has set sail, but nothing to report yet... All my units are suffering from supply and readiness problems due to a lack of initial supplies. Also the terrain is pretty rugged. I'm gonna need some engineers to lay down some roads soon, but the starting city does not have a lot of excess production.

tweber -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/20/2009 3:05:45 AM)
Turn sent to Russ. Key things I did: - Found the special village and will make SMG to be used in city assault. - Turn off supply to the tanks. It will be a while before they are in action and I have much higher production priorities. - Positioned my HQ on the city and started A/C production for recon - Put lots of very small units on my transports so I can make multiple landings in a turn. With autoconquer on, the typical move is to drop off, pick up and move to the next drop point. I built 3 transports last turn and will build two this turn. You need alot of transports because your perimeter increases as the radius of your empire expands. The first 8 -10 rounds are probably the most important in the game.

Arditi -> RE: New Beginnings Game (6/20/2009 3:19:57 AM)
Turn finished and sent. Good advice Tom. It's the little things that can make a difference. It's good to hear what you are thinking as I can learn from it. Off we all go! Arditi[:)]
