Lost a chariot to a barb axe at 96% odds. Things are not going well.

And another barb warrior is just chillaxing out to the east, about to say hello.

After losing the chariot we're last in soldiers as well. Hooray!

Fucking hell, Parkin spears from the east, barbarian spears from the west, and still a turn from Iron Working.

Hey, we have iron.

If only we had it connected 20 turns ago...


Also, the lack of smile resources is extremely frustrating, making it a bitch to whip out anything.

Also also, we just built our first Keshik. His name is Ke$ha.

Can I suggest renaming your Keshik to something without special characters ($) to avoid the similar issue that popped a bit ago with the % character...

Sorry. The gold play seemed the only feasible option. If I didn't lose that it would have been fine... Then I went Keshiks since that was faster. That iron is really crappy positioned too. :<

Kalin

It doesn't seem to be causing any issues.

It was always going to be difficult to hold without metal. Unfortunately, a couple of fuck ups (undefended cities and settlers within DM range of chariots) made it much easier for Parkin to take control of the area.

Incidentally, if Parkin wasn't slowly wiping us off the face of the earth, Elkad would be ripe for a Keshik rush right now...

Has it fought in any combats yet? That was where the issues popped up earlier: the combat log has bad things happen when funny characters show up.
Honor the charge they made.

Yep, killed a chariot.

You should name all your units ridiculous things so if Parkin attacks them, they get logged and it breaks the game.

Also, should only affect %'s, google printf. If you do something like %s should dump a large chunk of memory into the log event string buffer, overflowing into random parts of memory and crashing the game nondeterministically. You could use this to develop all sorts of hacks. Google buffer overflow.
