I want to, I just gotta get of this demon island. That damn wall of fire is too tall to even fly over, and it's got some machinery that keeps it going underground, which I suspect forms an inverted dome..

1 The foragers are told to look for larger stones and sticks. 2 The longest of the twigs are attempted sharpened to short spears with edged stones. 3 The softer twigs are attempted woven into a cage with an inverted conical entrance on the side (crustean pot). 4 Three random men are told to look in the lake for fish, shells and shellfish.

I do understand what you're saying, but I don't get the context, you say there are two good game styles out of which you prefer one. But since we've got both of them, why even mention it?

So? You're not forced to play just one you know, you can play all of our three current games.

I second that statement.

1 A group of people are sent out to gather stones and fallen wood. 2 A trench is dug to bring water through the city and out into the nearest area of lower terrain. 3 Any gain from the hunting party is butchered and they are sent back out.

The Marvelous city of Dakara is founded. The settlers begin setting up the buildings; houses are wigwams, storage facilities are made from rocks and the dining area is a lean-to. Hunters, fishermen, butchers, stone- and woodcarvers are chosen. The carvers begin making tools while the hunters and fishermen scout out pray in and near the lake.

Earth, seriously? A larder is a homonym (same class of word) to pantry.

On a slightly more Tavern related news, I have discovered the reason for me losing internet connection on occations; my dad had set the router to reset all IPs every 24 hours, I corrected it by hacking into the administrator account for the network and reserving IPs for both of my computers.

Today I've eaten enough sugar to make a sloth hyper... and I'm still as calm, lazy and (in)sane as always.

You have to look very closely.

I think I'll try again to make a Hegemony, it'll be in a modern setting, using a modified GDP system to incorporate factors such as infrastructure. Budget reset every year, research and projects are done by you sugguesting the amount of year and money it would take while I decide the final numbers. War would work on these priciples: A unit's strenght is equal to 1/100 of its original price. Deploying a unit costs 1/10 of its current price. Strategy would give a modifier of between 10 and 0.01, only zero has decimals. The attacker's value will be divided by the defender's value. If the value is over 5 then it is a faultless victory for the attacker. If the value is less than 0.2 then it is a faultless victory for the defender. If the value is between 0.9 and 1.5 then the territory becomes no-man's-land. If the value is anything else then it is used to calculate the victor's losses. Any sugguestions?

Search them for notes and weapons, read any notes and part them from any weapon larger than a dagger then let them join. Examine his so-called map, compare it to scouting maps and send scouts to areas of interrest. Tell the emmisary that we will not meet the demand, and if he returns there shall either be peace, alliance or his head on a pole. Negotiate a deal with the neighbour that allows for both to mine, offering to examine the gem for properties for them. Ensure your support by the other advisors, keep a guard made up of personal friends in front of both the door and beside me, keep a shortsword and a tomahawk within reach. Annex said felines and tame them, keep them near the pantries. Intellectual powress. Offer them the oppportunity to join or ally my tribe. Ensure that the citiziens are thriving better under my rule and keep a guard present when visiting there the oncoming year. Tell the empire that lest they trade us some food, my strongest men will not remain strong. Offer to support the friendly nation in regaining their strenght and ending the other nation. Massage chair. Get a scout to follow the moons journy (run around the Earth after the moon). Get out from underneath it and call out to the otherworldly visitors. D

No, I am not making a DEW, I just used Tesla-Beaton because just Tesla would have been too short. For all intents and pourposes you could just say Beaton is the name of the founder.

Infrastructure Project: Project: Tesla-Beaton Institute of Electrophysics, Copenhagen. Result: University, slight bonus in electric- and electronic-related reserach Reason 1: Educational facilities are always important. Reason 2: With electricity being the center of today's and presumably tomorrow's society, there will always be demand for well educated people to develop new devices. Reason 3: With Tesla's great importance in electrophysics, this will be the first institute ever made in honour of him. (As thus he is also invited to take place as headmaster of the university.) Proposed cost: 1 million£ Proposed ETA: 6 months.

Other than RuneScape, The Settlers IV is the only game I... can play online... Steam: TheMather1, though I have no games there.

I got a leatherman, a (neat) watch, a 1TB harddrive, body spray + shower gel, marshmallows, kinder maxi 10pk, some tools, 500kr (~100$), 500kr giftcard, a book on the universe and some clothing.

Merry Christmas! :grin:

An ion cannon should look something like a coilgun/railgun, laser rifle and a plasma cannon mixed together, so like this:

Counter-arguement: Resolution: One oil platform constructed. Reason 1: A long period of time and much resources were spent, as such the chance of finding oil is increased. Reason 2: Ekofisk being only the name of the project, not the exact area to search its distance from the shore is irrelevant. Reason 3: Even though the technique for floating platform segments was unknown at the time, it is still possible (though horribly inefficiant) to construct it on-site.

That's supposedly part of the project. Archi, already before 1860 there had been findings of oil on-shore around the North Sea, anyone with half a mind would understand there had to be some oil in it too.

What do you mean by this? Using the heat stored in the ground to heat up water and thus turn a turbine. Project: Ekkofisk (Echofish) (first area where oil was extracted off the coast of Norway) Action: Build oil rigs in the North-sea. Reason 1: Large quatities of a semi-rare natural resource semi-easily available. Reason 2: Oil provides a good economical foundation. Reason 3: Oil being increasingly important to humanity it is sure to increase in value. Duration: 5 years. Cost: 8 million.

Trade: Action: Scandinavia offers to buy geothermal technology from Italy. Result: Scandinavia gains the capabillity to build geothermal power plants. Reason 1: Both Italy and Scandinavia are members of Central Powers. Reason 2: Scandinavia has the capabillity to provuce sufficient geothermal power as to make Iceland an useful military outpost outpost both for offence and defence against any threats from the United Kingdom or North-Russia. Reason 3: Iceland has an exelent location as to study cosmic and solar radiation. Duration: 1 year. Cost: 3 million.
