I'll put you in the second reserve slot. Maybe you'll get lucky and two people will drop out, maybe not.

Game 12538215

2013-03-24 02:54:19 - Game has been initialized
2013-03-24 06:17:33 - NabTardz was kicked out for violating the rules
2013-03-24 06:17:33 - Agent 86 won the game
2013-03-24 06:17:33 - NabTardz lost 20 points
2013-03-24 06:17:33 - Agent 86 gained 20 points

Looked at the game, pondered move then had to go out for a while. Came back and was confused as it went missing. Finally looked at finished games and Wow!!

Guess I'm through to the next round ;)

I just hacked and slashed my way to victory! It was an "in your face", brutish and simple strategy. Find the enemy and stab repeatedly until he stopped moving. Oh, and trying not to get stabbed myself......

With the proper and sufficient application of force, indeed, all things become possible. Heh heh.

Yeah, still four active games in this round, so I doubt if they will wrap up before the start of next week.

Round 1 there were

14 freemiums v 18 premiums

3 fvf = 3 freemiums advancing
5 pvp = 5 premiums advancing

8 fvp = 5 freemiums and 3 premiums advancing

this means it will be 8 v 8 next round

Imperium Romanum

Image

The classic example of plunder as the primary method of wealth transfer was the old Roman Empire. For hundreds of years, Romans lived in unearned splendor while booty from conquered territories streamed towards Rome and their other great cities. When the booty ran out, the essentially unproductive nature of the Roman economy began to show, and the cracks in the facade got larger and larger. This is one of several Roman maps we have on CC; I've chosen it because of its relative simplicity.

Settings: Escalating Spoils, Unlimited reinforcements, No Fog, No Trench.


Phase 2 games have been created and invitations sent out.

My valiant foe, Wizz00, was no match for my fearless greed and ruthless capitalist ways (and luck).

Qwertylpc stands in the way of my money, but he will surely fall--like the low-born Roman plebe that he is! String him to the horses and drag his body through the streets!
