We debate a long time about what to research next. Eventually going with education to make it quicker to research other technologies.



Another civilization enters the medieval era.



A lesser nation of the world wants money.



And this lesser nation of the world wants others to suffer.



Our new squad of composite bowmen move to guard the gold of Jozan.

We proceed to do so.

I'm going to be away from Thursday to Sunday, can we extend the turn timer for 4 days?

[Illven]

I have returned! And managed to take my turns while gone.

[Silverraptor]

I can't take my turn. I load the save file, skip the loading cinematic, get to the loading screen for about a minute, and then the game just closes suddenly. I have no mods at all that could cause this problem, so could someone help me getting this fixed?

[Silverraptor]

Okay, I got the problem taken care of. Now I want to ask, should we reinstate the time limit?

[Illven]

Hey, Russia. Something wrong. It's been 4 days.

[Silverraptor]

I think we should establish the skip policy again. Make it every 2 days again.

[Illven]

I think we should establish the skip policy again. Make it every 2 days again.

I approve of this idea.

[Silverraptor]

I also propose giving the nation of Brazil 500 bonus game points for no discernible reason at all!

[Illven]

I also propose giving the nation of Brazil 500 bonus game points for no discernible reason at all!

Aw, that's cute. You think points will stop Ship of the lines.

[Dada]

I'll give Skilvrel a couple of days more to respond before re-adding the turn timer.

[Maryring]

Hey, Russia. Something wrong. It's been 4 days.

From the burning hate diaries. 800 AD



It is said an entire camp lit up with the fires of the night. There was only joy that a lowly city state could cause much pain.



Jozan was starving. A thousand people cried out in hunger pains.

Then the city built a granary. The end.



And more people in Hastings experienced the pain of child birth.



We meet a new city state.



And a new natural wonder. Mt.Sinai.



Pelor's defense force reports no problems.



Neither does Jozan's.




Our cargoship moves to Hastings to feed the capital.



Our Trirmeme makes sure no Zulu impi's try to take us by surprise.



We send the Russian part of the deal over.

Pelor. The best city.



Jozan. Is okay.

Civ V crashes whenever I open the game. I'll have to skip my turn this time.

Civ V crashes whenever I open the game. I'll have to skip my turn this time.

Did you try asking the GMR forums?

[Silverraptor]

Civ V crashes whenever I open the game. I'll have to skip my turn this time.

Did you try validating the game files?

[Dada]

If that doesn't work, then try to use the savefile debloating mod (along with the mod that makes mod usable on hot seat games) and see if that fixes the issue.

[Maryring]

It's something in the interaction between GMR and faith automatically purchasing a great prophet for me. Useless things that they are. It's not a big worry to lose out on one turn though.

[Silverraptor]

Well, I guess if he insists, we should attach a turn timer again.

[Illven]

Dada, please put the turn timer back on.

[Dada]

Sorry, I was travelling yesterday. Turn timer re-added.

The Indian people are cut off by the English to the north, then Assyrians to the east. We have no land to give, and we cannot accept Russian settlements on what is rightfully our heartlands. As such, we see no option but to take what is ours by force.

We are told the Zulu built the Great wall by the prophet of Pelor.

The prophet laughs for this wall will be nothing to our ships of fire.



India declares war on the Russian people, as tens of thousands of people are brought into the line of fire.



Meanwhile our economy prospers.



Our Trimeme scouts Russian lands noting how the onset of war has damaged the Russian people.



Our capital's defense force reports no problems.



Jozan also reports on a lack of hostilities.



As does Symbol of Pain!



Our Trimeme watches for Zulu impi.

So it's past turn 100, which means another game update.

Currently I'm planning on ship of the lineing someone at this point. I've yet to decide if it'll be Russia (For failure to pay on terms), India, or the Zulu. I'm leaning towards the Zulu. We share no connected land, and they just wasted a bunch of hammers on a useless Great wall.

I really want Russia to take the deal though, so I might just take that one city. The fact that the continent snakes in-between our capitals sucks though.
