Hi to all I am new to this guild and relatively new to this game, this is my 4th reset on turbo and I started turbo slightly before i started normal.
Althor, I like you even better than before....now I don't feel quite as old. I'm 51, 4 kids though only one is still at home, 8 grandkids from the three who've left home. Despite that, oddly enough I'm a full-time student...way too long a story to try to go into here. I've been gaming on PC's since well before windows 3 made windows something for all to use (though I did play one strategy game that used the windows 1 interface as part of the game) strategy games have always been my preference.
In t5p I have played all colors except black (don't like managing problems with nondisbandables and black has way to many of those for my taste) I started on this server as red and joined the Red Death that reset...for future reference I feel that a guild of all one color is a seriously bad idea, balance works better. After that set I did sets as blue and gree with CTH/CTU (same guild no idea why she changed the code for it). Oddly enough in that guild I wound up immediately in leadership, the guildmaster was looking for leaders with experience in specific types of strategies and when I offered if all else fails to share how I had recovered from multiple BBQ's and spell/items combos that had been near death experiences (intended as humor, though I had done that) she put me in leadership for that "strategy knowledge." Unfortunately I have gotten even better at such recoveries....maybe this set I can learn enough to avoid such near death experiences. Speaking of which my new lesson from the current set on normal is....don't be the one who finishes off the veteran player at the end of a BBQ....50 turns of Black Death, definitely not worth it.
Hope to learn and have fun here, hope to get to know you all in the process
