Well Switzerland's research project was for efficent rockets in 80 turns, from about 15 turns ago...So I would say 40 turns if you were going to do it on your own....

I have Civ 4 and Beyond the Sword, and the Rise of Mankind: New Dawn mod, which is awesome...Eternity setting is how I would like to play, if I had the time, but usually Marathon and Noble setting gives a great game =P. Hint: Ico, use the world editor when you get into trouble :thumbsup:

Rules on MFW(Massive, Freaky, Weapons) Nukes, RFG, ect... 1 billion per kilotonne 1 kilotonne kills up to 20,000 troops 150 kilotonnes to blow up a city. 500 kilotonnes to wipe out a wonder. 15 megatonnes to turn 1 pixal into water. 5 megatonnes for to widen the range by 1 pixal in all directions. Can only be done once.

Hex has started another Hegemony apparently, and seemingly they have deposed him of his modship already :cool: jk. But yeah, the zip archive idea sounds pretty good...though it wouldn't stop people researching 'Time Dilation' completed 'Yesterday'

Oi there are two Californians on this forum! The main rule of thumb is mexico has less mexicans (at least in some parts). Anyways I think sere is giving me quebec for some reason (possibly to avoid a rebellion of Quebecois ) 2! There are at least three Britons...and A Briton counts for 40 Americans. :rolleyes: Anyway, I think getting offended by someone not knowing exactly where your homeland is, in a game where you daily commit genocide in places you didn't know existed(see Africa), is kinda hypocritcal. So there. Well I'm Canadian so I'm exempt from needing to know all of the US' bazillion states. You only need to know three states. New York, for being where I live. (Note that Earth, Poseidon, and Nex live there too, and a New Yorker = Briton) California for being the 7th largest economy in the world, and Texas for the heaven of Republicans. Kentucky, home of good Chicken. Washington DC, place to nuke if I ever wanted to run for premiership of Russia Washington State, place I would say I nuked if I then wanted to become President of the USA

Mexico/California....Its like Cornwall and Devon...No one not from that continent knows the difference. :thumbsup:

Ok then, Doom is annexing "Alaska" Grim is annexing "Canada" Sere is annexing "Quebec" and "Washington" Dusty is annexing "Texas" and "Florida" And "California" is staying open. Then you are all mix and matching your territories to suit what you want?

As long as all the territory is annexed you can split it anyway you lot like...

Not likely.

True...But it has made the break up of Earth go much, much faster.

Florida is actually Cuba....but yeah...

I prefer mine, simply because its harder for people to tell me I haven't factored the GDP of a State...Provokes less arguements that way.

Errr... Not since it went bankrupt and had to sell Florida to Cuba to pay the gas bill.

All of Space? Invade India? Invade America...

Attack on hold for time being then...

20 minutes early but the new stats are up. So begin spending. Any problems PM me.

There is, but I am tied up right now.

Final map update of the decade. Enjoy.

Ok, I can do it now. Can any attacks that are going ahead be re-pmed to me? Thanks. I will post the results within 2 1/2 hours. Its 3 1/2 hours till next decade, so anything posted after 2 hour's time will be ommited until next decade. Thank you.

Has to be the Spathi: Yikes! A Vast Menacing Ship blots out the Sun and threatens to rain down radioactive death upon us! OH NO! Compounding my fright is the hidious-bloated-GREEN MONSTER that looms before me on the viewscreen! Our End Is At Hand! We surrender, O merciful evil alien. Let us explain the sad history of our species. Once upon a time, many thousands of years ago we inhabited the warm, safe surface of our home planet, Spathiwa. We were happy and content. During those golden centuries, we evolved from a primitive nomadic culture into a complex, agrarian society. We learned to write on clay tablets and we were well on to being able to read those tablets when the Darkness fell upon us when the Evil Ones came! Creatures from the darkest pits of hell they were. They hunted our people -- devoured them like tasty nodules and we had no defense against them. Suddenly, our culture became once more nomadic. We fled across the oceans, from continent to continent, but the evil ones always followed. Spurred by our great need, we advanced from bronze to atomic technology in less than one of your centuries but none of our innovations was a match for the Evil Ones' natural cunning and ferocity. Finally, with no other option available, we fled our world and took up residence here on our own moon where we have resided, most uncomfortably, for the last three hundred years. When we first arrived we were terrified to step out onto the surface of our designated planet. Savage beasts freely roamed the surface, gnawing the abundant tubers and root crops with their massive fore-fangs! We did not dare set out pedal claws on that surface! These horrible, pink-eyed creatures scattered at the sight of us, as if to re-group for a massive assualt! We could see them, lurking behind the abundant ground cover, their flop ears, twitching menacingly, as if to signal an ambush! It was only we had incinerated several thousand of them with our beam weapons when we discovered- SURPRISE! They were just gental herbivores! Imagine our relief! So we were a little late in getting started colonising. [hide]Please! Don't Smack Me! I have a low pain threshold! I have a rare disease that makes my soft flesh bruise easily! I could easily expire from a small tap, and then who would feed my thousand encrustlings? It was a ruse! A ruse designed to lull the enemy into a false sense of security, until we could plan a daring, and ultimately, suicidal mission in which we would all die in agony! I find myself enjoying your company: Your sparkling conversation, and the presence of your huge, powerful, death-dealing starship, which, being my friend, you would certainly feel compelled to use to save me from ANY hostile lifeforms that threaten me with DEATH. Are you sure? Because your statement is often just a more polite way of saying`Attention alien vessel: Identify yourself or be destroyed.' Certainly, most gracious destroyer, as is well known, before departing this mortal helix all Spathi must complete the short, poignant ritual of Wezzy-Wezzah to be assured of a secure afterlife and by allowing us to fulfill this requirement, you too shall be granted immortality in our beautiful afterworld which is absolutely guaranteed to be free of similarly immortal monsters who would otherwise eat the both of us. That settles it, for now I am certain that you are an honest and friendly being who is forced entirely through unfortunate circumstance - the unreasonable hostility of the Universe to travel the galaxy in a ship which, according to my sensors is best suited for conducting planetary-scale genocide. Originally, we were stationed on Earth's moon, which made us Spathi a bit uneasy because with each passing day we grew more and more worried about the sneaky Earthlings making a surprise attack though the Ilwrath kept telling us that was impossible since the Earthlings had no ships or weapons whatsoever. That made us feel a bit better, but when the Ilwrath left, we again grew fearful and decided to make a strategic redeployment to Mars. Later on we decided it would be prudent to relocate to Jupiter's moon, Ganymede then later Saturn's moon, Titan and finally here to Pluto. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STcAhhcqXpU Except to do what we promised, and help keep the galaxy alive. But once the galaxy is feeling better, its back to good old safety for us! [/hide] It would be amazing to play them in a campagin

Small democracy loving nation seeks large authoritarian nation with heaps of cash. Poor countries need not apply. Willing to settle for less.

Meh, you mean the Phillapine Island? Yeah, if you want it, though your IAG will be around 30,000,000

Errr, Ico, you might want to aid Mather next decade...
