Not sure exactly what I have learned that I can carry forward, other than, BUILD MORE TROOPS!!!
Also, don't piss off your neighbor when you only have one Oil well and it's near your border?  ???

I can and I'm charging $1 a minute for the web streaming.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Good advice, although, in my defense, it was on a tile of land that I claimed through culture expansion, so, I had no choice in placing a city close to it.  In the meantime, things have taken a turn for the better.  When I had this war thrust upon me, Genghis, and his Vassal, Justinian, were at war with Mehmed.  I am far ahead of Genghis in tech, and offered him two Techs for him to declare peace with Mehmed.  I was hoping that one or the other would be inclined to join me in the war against Suryavarman and take pressure off me.  Unfortunately, it was no go from Genghis OR Mehmed.

Fast forward eight or so Turns, and I am busy denying reinforcements to the city he has taken from me, Kushans.  He wants to gather enough Artillery in the city in order to continue on his offensive.  I have killed at least six of them in the last few Turns.  It's still a battle I am going to lose, as I can't replace the troops I am losing fast enough.  Enter, a wedding.  Apparently, a couple, one of each nationality, Mongolian and Khmer, got married.  The parents of each half were unhappy at the union and an incident occurred.  I checked in with Genghis, and his price to declare war on Suryavarman was Biology and Electricity.  I was glad to pay up and the declaration has taken pressure off of me.  Enough so that I can start making plans for a counterattack.

In other news, I guess Mehmed was pissed at being put off, HE declared war on Genghis and Justinian, one or two Turns after the latter joined me in my war.  I was hoping numbers would bear in my war, as neither Genghis nor Justinian have Infantry.  Now, I don't know what is going to happen.  Mehmed is the most Technologically advanced of the five countries and I am afraid he will gut Genghis, or, at least, lessen the impact of his help in my war.  We shall see.  Oh, it's 1942, and we have a World War.

World War II Europe.

Which game?

Heh...  yeah, not the most original of titles, is it?     http://schwerpunkt.wargamer.com/Eurdesc.html

I didn't realize that he had released it yet (guess I should scroll down a few forums and catch up).  I had/have AGW and RGW and liked them well enough.  I'll be curious to see what the thoughts are on the Europe game though honestly, that may be just WAY too large for me to want tackle.

I spent my weekend putting miles on the Royal Enfield and reliving my childhood by watching youtube videos of my old favorite games.

The Big Daddies in BioShock are a pain!
Very immersive and atmospheric game, definitely something to try with the lights out.

I remember on the Amiga games like Battlehawks 1942 and Their Finest Hour only taking a couple of 3.5" disks...it was so satisfying slapping those things into the drive :)

Which Amiga did you have? I had the 500 and the built-in graphics and sound blew away the i486 that my then-wife was using to work from home, though I did installi a math co-processor and sound card on the latter so I could play Falcon 3.0/MiG29.
