Anyone know how long until he gets back? I have a feeling his flabbergasted response (If he have one) will be quite entertaining.

Impressive considering his contribution was exactly three words in one post.

Wow , I never had such an entartaining thread , so the secreat was to not write in it,I hope i will not destroy it with my beautifull english.

Seven thanks alot for covering me, i see the game its going very nice.I agree with all you moves.

Its that true i am not alowed to build oracle? I didnt see that when i picked the leader.And yes Ichabod plan was to oracle metal casting.I never build oracle in one of my pbems becasue feels that its slows me too much but i wanted to do it now to see if its worth.

If i knew was banned for sure i would have pick Gandhi , wanted anyway but something changed my mind , oh yeah oracle :neenernee.

Toth, i promise i will keep this thread updateed but just after 10-12 days ,because right now i am in the midle of moving house, but you can thread spam so we look scary for the oponents.

TY Bob for trusting in me when no one did.But who would belive a guy which its talking about mids,when was known the fact was a waste of hammer ,and you could have instead 3 setlers and some workers or a pile of axes.lol


Quote:I also agree that Mack is a really good player, so I suggest that Seven settle Mack's capital 1SE of the settler position. I think Mack will appreciate the challenge.
Mack might be good but its not a wizard, and there we have Kyan in the game and he gave me serious headche in our duel.

As far as I can tell, the Mids and the GLH are the only banned wonders.

I don't think the Oracle itself slows you down that badly, but building Forges afterward does, even as Industrious. You have to be disciplined and go back to worker/settler/unit production.

I think Oracle only really pays off when you have a very specific objective for it. Like in 29 where novice and Seven built it to run a forge for engineer GPP. Most of the time Oracle forces you to take an undesirable tech path for a payoff that either slows you down or forces you to play a very specific way.

Of course, if you can sling Civil Service or something like you did in 24, obviously its great.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Seven slinged Feudalism in 6, that was good too. I think the take away is that slinging MC rarely works out. smile
