"January Game" Setup & TTT

[Eadee]

I was afraid that unity pod caused an earthquake which destroyed that hill you had internet-connection on.

Next step would've been to call for a planetary council meeting to propose a rescue mission

[Misotu]

An earthquake would have been a serious improvement     I don't even have a special of any sort.

To Morgan!

And away from Morgan! Please send your passwords to BU.

Okay, since Jeroen is not online in Skype, here's the .sav

oh, and to Misotu:

The tiles of my capital:
6 tiles with 1 food 1 mineral
5 tiles with 1 food
3 tiles with 1 mineral
6 tiles with xenofungus
no pods
So you won't have to worry about a rover rush, my land is as dry as yours. ^^'

Okay, since Jeroen is not online in Skype, here's the .sav

Let me horrify you by saying I am actually playing it in the morning, after horse-riding and associated bar I am not always the most sober or clear-headed 

Other days it'll actually be nice that Eadee and I are the last in sequence because he and I do stay up late. But tonight I would probably just move colony pods into the sea or something.

[JeroenDStout]

My start isn't ideal either. I was worried one of you started in the jungle with four monoliths.

-> 

[Eadee]

I'm a bit confused about the multiple downloads of savegames. bots?

[Misotu]

Ha! The monolith remains a rumour as far as the Gaians are concerned. Along with fresh water and nutrient/minerals/energy specials.

We are sad   

On the upside, we have a working internet connection   

[Vishniac]

To Morgan! 

(Note to Kirov: don't forget our other game!)

[Kirov]

I'm going right there, Vishniac.

My pods suck, too, and I got only a battle ogre. What's the use of a battle ogre, ugh.

[Eadee]

errrr... a battleogre is a slow terraforming-unit. If you repeadatly move through xenofungus the fungus will go away and a street will be built. If you encounter mindworms win this process just attack them.

Do not use the battle-ogre for combat!

*coughcough*

aaaaaand

[JeroenDStout]

I hear that if you own a battle ogre you'll have 1000% the drone riots of factions who do not have the battle ogre, like mine, I don't have one *cough*

--> 

[Misotu]

Gosh, I didn't know that. Good old SMAC, always the unexpected. Well, I'm glad I don't have one either then.   

In fact, I don't have a single square yielding even two food. Nada. Zip. Nothing. My growth is so slow I'll be lucky to have a colony pod built before someone transcends ...

[Eadee]

I'm actually so desperate for ressources that I consider sending my colony-pod into a unity-pod at this point -.-
