I am playing at the same pace that Berkut is playing our tournament game of Pursuit of Glory.

LOL. I had a suspicion you were doing that...

Sorry guys for dropping out - I missed a couple of turns and then it felt like there is no point coming back. Hope you can continue without me. :)

Marty I would much prefer if you rejoined than if you just quit and never came back.  The game lasts a long time - missing 5-6 turns is far from fatal.

Okay, so Marti I wish you'd come back to the game.

If, however, you're determined you will not, please at least quit the game, so we don't have to wait 23 hours every day in case you might enter a move.

So why did you say you wanted to play to begin with? Just wanted to screw up the game?

Clobbered by the AI and it didn't seem like anyone was into diplomacy.  I admit, these types of games are mostly about interesting diplo for me, not seeing how to better run my systems (which I did pretty terribly this time around).
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

We hadn't really gotten to the diplo point yet... :(

Yeah, though I do sympathize with the malevolent AI bit...they tend to pick on one person, and I wasn't really in any position to help without doing  some kind of full-on "lend lease" effort...still very much in the build/grow industry phase.

Mart would be proud of his AI, it is attacking and annoying the hell out of everybody.  :P

Fake Marti is much more competent than real Marty.

So apparently I'm pretty terrible at this game.

I'd never made any contact with any other player but Berkut, and he seemed occupied fighting the AI, so I though I would just build up and up.  Then Berkut had wiped everyone else out so I took my enormous killer fleet and marched it into Berkut's territory.  Somehow he was able to slow my fleet so he intercepted it with his own fleet.  Numbers looked roughly comparable... and the battle lasted about 5 seconds as my fleet exploded in a million flashes of light, while Berk's wasn't even scratched.



I would be willing to give this game another go though.  Anyone else interested, and willing to commit to actually playing?
