I actually have a query and i think it needs to be addressed before any games are submitted. Why, if anyone who knows, does the A-team only have 4 players when we have two 6 person teams?

We should try and make it fair a spread as possible and as it seems 5 is the average it seems strange to me that a team be shorted a player from the average when it would be so easy to fill that spot with someone from the Crusaders or Domination moving across.

Are you around Silver or is this something the Triad...or whatever DA, KP and mysef were named as, could adjust?

I'm not sure why Silver designated it that way. But now that I think about it, I agree that it doesnt seem quite right. One of the two new people, Loupdinour or e-stab, should probably be moved to Team A. Since Loupdinour is on my team, I'll excuse myself from making the random selection if thats what we decide. I'd love to keep him, but lady luck must decide impartially.

I'll PM Silver and see if he responds soon.

sorry guys i was rushing things this afternoon and miscounted. Loupdinour has been moved to the A-Team (blame it on my brother)

@Dystopic: Me and Jeff are co-captaining the A-Team right now, but if you want to step up and take the captaincy, that would be awesome. Team forum is at the ToE, let Neilo know and he'll grant you access.

@Neilo/Motti/Marshall: please correct any forum access that may have changed with this round please.

A very very big thank you to KP for getting the Round 10 details posted, I am in Michigan and dont have GCII on this computer.

Loupdinour has been moved to the A-Team


Great, does that mean I can't hit my target worth a crap, but I can sure pepper the area in bullets? That one may have gone over the heads of the youngens here.

If he hasn't already, KP probably should change the Core pw for team D then since I was already active in that forum. I'm an honest guy...but it's best to remove all doubt.

Where's the active Team A forums?

My only comment on this matchup is - Ouch.

Tech Trading - OFF
Relying on the AI to learn the Alliance tech

I don't think I've ever felt so powerless to earn a victory LOL

I opened a thread at the ToE Forums but then I noticed that there seems to be a more active Team C forum at the Galactic Core. Could someone send me the password for it by PM please?

@Loupdinour: 1) A-Team's active forums is at the Tyranny forums, sign-up and Neilo will make sure you are granted access.

2) Oh wow...I completely forgot about that (the AI and the Alliance tech)...hmmmm...let me think that over for a bit, I may change the round settings later today. If I do NOT change by them by Midnight tonight, considere them to stand as they are.


EDIT:

IMPORTANT NOTICE

There has been a change in the Round Settings that at this time is not currently reflected in the OP screenshots. Please make sure that Tech Trading IS enabled (ON) as due to the AI rarely, and very slowly, researching the 'Alliance' tech, severely limits a map of this type. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

*edit to your edit*
When I get home, do you want me to redo the TA screen shot of the game settings then?

I'll register @ the ToE forums once I get home tonight. Looks like that domain name isn't liked by my work's firewall. ~whistles~

OT here, but did ya's hear that they are working on making it into a movie? Ice Cube as BA, Woody Harrelson as Murdock, Bruce Willis as Hannibl. All are still at 'rumored' and Face hasn't been announced/rumored yet.

Hey I rose to the challenge, and already completed 2 games with the tech-trading off....it wasnt THAT hard. I had to kill most of the AIs, rather than ally with them, but still got the correct victory type. Guess I'll replay and try for a better score now.

I am not at all surprised. People who grew up in the 80s are now the people writing movie scripts.

Lucky for me I have a day off today...I strike first!

The Drengin were my only ally, and their relations did not become "close" to me until Dec 8th of year 3. Just in time!
