ANZAC Empire, 'Bridging the Ditch' Thread

from Stardock Forums
Yes Well... *cough* I was a little tired of posting on the Aussie Empire thread. ;)

*Intentionally cheesy opening Address*

So gather round all you ANZAC Citizens, Lend Me Your Ears... and your games, Forget whether your accent is more nasally than your neighbours and Post those Gigantic Games on Masochistic Difficulty! *pause for applause* Now Begone and play Galactic Civilizations till you starve, then play some more! Think GalCiv, Dream GalCiv, (Breath GalCiv?) ...Be THE GalCiv! and return only when you have defeated the evil intergalactic minions that plague us and halt our advance up the metaverse board.

*cough*

Yup, Let's beat em Guys.

In my last game with the Dregin down to one planet, I was just going to milk the game for population, when they got 95 Corvetts from the precursors!!!

Luckily they opted to attack me and left the planet almost undefended.
I just took it, end of game.

Is this a deliberate strategy to prevent milking?

Probably not. I still have my shiny #3 medal. Woohoo. I likes it I likes it. It won't last though. And don't milk em too much. Save some for the rest of us.

GO ANZACs...the triple threat of Josh, Chris and Slitherin all in Allan Border mode (beyond 10,000!) have us back in the running. The Good Ship Waltzing Matilda lives on..... :D

Don't get too excited, ANZACs. Anyone can submit a 1.05 game now and get 10K. Heck, once I get a new version game in, I will be in that range myself.

If we wish to get excited, Gerakken, we will - it's the nature of ANZACs LOL Especially when the odds are overwhelming and we are about to get the crap beaten out of us - it's where the ANZAC legend came from!

Cheers to Raleigh - also in Allan Border mode!! :CONGRAT:

(Evil Gerakken has come out, charging into the ANZAC thread. The boss left him in charge.)

Now you truly face overwhelming odds. This would be a nice time to rally and show us all the power you possess. I would hate to think that this is all you guys got! Supreme domination is a curse, I tell you. A curse because we need to continually strive to find worthy challengers. So try harder! ;)

(Evil Gerakken now comes to his senses, realizing that it is a fatal villain flaw to show haughty arrogance. Time to leave...)

If it's an Aussie ship you will probably find they are all called Baa-baa-ra :)

I'm told you should look for cliffs :)

Muuuaaahhhhh....in the confusion of the battle, the pathetic GROSSlings fail to realise the hull of their ship has been splashed with emu oil....a sickly green toxic crud begins to eat through the outer plates....

Release the exploding sheep pods!!

Small, apparently harmless pods drift towards the GROSS cruiser, attach to the hull - and bore through, liberating packs of feral sheep free to roam the mighty GROSS cruiser....NZ SHEEP ALWAYS GET THEIR MAN!!!

Our spy rays observe Gerakken bringing his eeeevviill master Pontius some hot cocoa on the bridge of the GROSS cruiser.....

Suddenly, Pontius glances over Gerakken's shoulder: "Hey Gerakken, what's that sheep doing he[BLAM!!!]

Woolly scuffling noises, followed by short bleats in Morse code, followed by deafening concussions echo throughout the GROSS cruiser, which takes on a decided list... :HOT:

Yes, I am still paranoid about those disguised sheep. :) But you know that GROSS has its own evil ways of dealing with rivals, even resurrected ones! So come on up and join the party. We can't put you back in place until you step out of line. Muwahaha! ;)

My character has a flasher's coat with fifty thousand pockets inside, to keep all his monster giblets. He's a delicatessen on legs. :)

Hehe... I'm trying to imagine a peaceful, passive, killing rampage, but I'm not having much luck. That pure good face isn't helping :p

Actually we seem to have picked up about 8 members overnight - I presume because the game is now on sale in Australia other than by dwonload?

Anyway welcome aboard everyone!!!

I must be lost I thought I was in the Anzac Thread, but with all the GROSS entries now I am not sure where I am or which way is up. Anyway put those Euro's under your foot and press down. We former British Empires shall Rule the Metaverse.
