I don't think so, unless he was fishing in the other corner of the map and had 40 or 50 ships. I had something like 20 out there.

then he had a thousand farms, or a rampant deer population on his island.

Both at once, or should we take turns?

A truly insane farming system. Once he quickly ran out of resources on the island, he had nearly all of his villagers farming. :p

Nice! :slick:

When would be a good time for folks to play the next game?

I have a troublesome schedule this upcoming week, because BWT is coming to visit starting Thursday for the long weekend, so I will be pretty much unavailable Thursday-Monday. And I'm going to have a busy three days at work before that.

That said, I'm probably available to play late tonight if anyone wants to do an impromptu thing, otherwise I'm sure I can find an evening Monday-Wednesday if folks would prefer that. Unfortunately, we'll probably have to wait until the week of the 4th to get together all of us as a large group.

Don't let my absence later this week into this weekend let any of you from arranging something though.

I don't think I'll play tonight (today), sorry. Thinking I'll do other stuff today. Next time :nicenod:

I made a separate channel in our Discord chat for our AoE (and games in general) talk as well. I figured that it'd be better to talk there rather than filling the main chat with stuff that a lot of people wouldn't understand.

That's totally fine! We have played a lot recently, and admittedly I've goofed off too much over these past few hurricane days, but dammit it was worth it. :p

That sounds like a good plan to me. Thanks, Quin. :beer:

You all just let me know if you want to play any of the next three nights (Monday-Wednesday) and I'll see what I can do. Otherwise unfortunately I'll have to be out until the week of the 4th; hopefully we can find an evening that'll work for everyone.

Does anyone have an idea of how I can get my wife out of the house for the night to join in?

My last week at work, so realistically... I just don't have time :( and I'd get my butt handed to me anyway, I love AoE but was never very good at it.

Do it! None of us are that good at it, or at least I'm not, and Daisy just played for the very first time the other day. It'd be a blast to have you if you can find the time. :D

Been extremely tempted to buy this. . . Having people to play with might just push me over the edge and cause me to purchase it.
AoE3 was such a let down in comparison. Cards were so gamebreaking.

Agreed on AOE3, 2 is easily the best. :srsnod:

Today I'm going out Father's Day shopping *at some point* so that's too obscure to plan around I think. Tomorrow would be better since I'm not doing anything until we go out for dinner. So this makes sense, I'd say tomorrow night for you guys would work for me.

Very good chance I can finally play tonight, if y'all do it. I'll be cooped up in my lab anyway and likely in need of a break. That's still assuming a late start though.

Can do. Preferably only the one game in that case because I'm going out for a Father's Day thing later.
