by Naithin | Jul 5, 2020 | Civilisation | 9

Our military strength is 622, with the next nearest only sitting at 343. And they’re our friend. Right. Enough is enough. Gilgamesh is about to get a rather nasty surprise. Namely — I’m going to take Adab and Eridu from him. They...

New Zealand has seen at least the promise of a return to normalcy this month. We’ve run a consecutive streak of 9 days with no new cases. There is in fact only 1 active known case in the country. While there is still an acknowledgement that...

Long Live the Queen — War and Peace (Turns 161-170)

by Naithin | May 30, 2020 | Civilisation | 0

Since my last turn, war has come, gone, and come again. You can read all about it in the posts linked here. The people of England also found religion. You would think this might temper our warmongering instincts, at least a little. Especially...

Around the World in 80 Turns

by Naithin | May 6, 2020 | Civilisation | 6

by Naithin | Apr 28, 2020 | Civilisation | 9

The Civilisation VI blogger succession game is here! And we have a whopping 8 players at this stage. For the sake of those reading along, I’m going to (more or less) jump right into the action. But if you’re a player, I have a section...

Civilisation Blogger Succession Game — Setting the Rules

by Naithin | Apr 26, 2020 | Civilisation | 12

Right! The game is afoot! Well; almost. Time to set the rules a little more firmly than we did following yesterday’s post. We had a few areas where people had a preference of a sorts, but not everywhere. So I figure the most interesting way...
