The Sweetness and Light Game

[SCG]

looking more and more like its going to end quickly.

Romans: 2 cities, both in reach, although mostly by spies (we can always poison the water supplies if we don't know what to do with the spies )

Babylonians: 5 cites, 2 visible and in reach, others likely nearby

Germans: 2 cities - may need to trade maps as both are hidden, but should be nearby (seems to be someone's city SW of leipzig based on lack of recentering when clicking there)

then there are the 2 civs likely to be last

Spanish: 1 city - could be anywhere?

Indians: 7 cities, only 2 visible, both are isolated and we are still building transports to get to those 2 cities...

next player can probably finish off the first 3, and with a little luck the other 2 will be gone before my turn comes again.

Somewhere in the vicinity of Madrid, I presume.

Good job wrapping this one up.

probably, but madrid was an island city, so who knows where Seville lies - those AI unsinkable triremes can stray fairly far sometimes looks like 2 of the more likely sites have been explored without finding the city

Figures those b*stards would build a 2nd city before our steamer could reach Madrid.

Hmmm a week has gone by & the action cools down...

5 turns each please

Have I got this right - or am I up?
I have been out of the loop with piles of marking, but can now see the light at the end of the tunnel - if it isn't some b*stard with a torch and another pile of scripts

A euphemism for the weekly boozing at Ming's, I gather.

And that would be SCG... you are up!

[SCG]

have save, will travel (to Seville and Munich)

looks like it should be short work to victory (becoming a bit of a pattern here ) hopefully will be able to post results in next couple days

[SCG]

ok, so it only took till turn 1880 to finish off the world

highlights as i lost my (brief log)
1879: Built Launch Pad, rush transports in Nuremburg and Launch Pad
1880: Build The, End, bombard Munich with helicopter, then with 1 tank (rifleman and phalanx), bombard Seville with 1 tank (musketeer) and goodbye world

never did move the freight after i induced a few celebrations for bigger deliveries. forgot to save before wandering into seville so here is after conquering.

[Six Thousand Year Old Man]

Nice work!

And, thanks for the game, SG's.

[-Jrabbit]

Thanks for finally delivering the coup de grace, SCG.
