ANZAC Empire, 'Bridging the Ditch' Thread

ANZAC Empire, 'Bridging the Ditch' Thread

Yes Well... *cough* I was a little tired of posting on the Aussie Empire thread. ;)

*Intentionally cheesy opening Address*

So gather round all you ANZAC Citizens, Lend Me Your Ears... and your games, Forget whether your accent is more nasally than your neighbours and Post those Gigantic Games on Masochistic Difficulty! *pause for applause* Now Begone and play Galactic Civilizations till you starve, then play some more! Think GalCiv, Dream GalCiv, (Breath GalCiv?) ...Be THE GalCiv! and return only when you have defeated the evil intergalactic minions that plague us and halt our advance up the metaverse board.

*cough*

Yup, Let's beat em Guys.

All deserters need to be shot..

All these poachers need to be shot

The ANZACS will live forever

True ANZACS never die, surrender, desert their posts..

Currently I believe that there are too many in high command..
I shall personally whip command into shape.

How does everyone feel about going back to those with a score above 10000 as being in the senette.

Lets get some Organization going and kill all spies,infultrators,deserters

Come on where are all the ANZACS .... Am i the only one left

Hi there Kit!

It was really nice chating to you the other night . . . It was your "socio-politico-economico" kinda type of vibe/advice and inspiration that gave me the strength to continue! :)

I think I've been about as close as I've ever gotten to having a 'nerveous breakdown' wheelin and dealing with all those hard hearted lenders, all's well that ends well!

I'm at work so I can't access the chat rooms on these computers . . . but we'll have to catch up soon!

"Me thinks me might even plays a game of GC two-nite!" (I know my on-line spelling drives you nuts! LOL) I couldn't resist!

Hey guys: you are more than welcome, indeed, it is almost a given, that you will join GROSS and sign up for the Southern Seas quadrant. Check out the 'Pirates of the Southern Seas' to see what a super deal we got from GROSS! Love to have ya all. No, we actually need you all. :D

Hi,


Why would I let them.. GROSS Pirates ... get their greedy clutches on me... with bribery to desert .... they'll make you walk the plank when you've outlived your usefullness.. don't say i didn't warn you... nothing in life is free there is always retrebution.. and they'll get their pound of flesh one way or another..

Thanks for the offer but no thanks... ;p

I can't believe that fellow ANZACS fell for one of the oldest tricks in the book of piracy / epionage / sabotage .. sure they gave you your own ship... that way they can fill you with cannon shot anytime they please...

Then you'll expect ppl like "THE ANZACS" to come to your rescue.. after all thats what i said we are good at .. doing the dirty work of fixing others mistakes..

They've been poaching ppl since the day i first looked into signing up to this unit.. even so they couldn't maintain No1 ranking.. so guess what they do again.. yup.. you guessed it... bribed others yet again.. Yet they want others like you fools to believe their propaganda that they are the best.. can you imagine just how pittyfull they would be without those players that they have poached...

{yes this is just a joke... really just keeping the flame burning and story line going... lol }

We'd be in third place without them. They are valuable members of the team. That goes without saying

It looks like BlueSteel has the right spirit.

Unfortunately I'm another person who has been very inactive since the empire was started.
I'm sure BlueSteel will do a much better job of maintaining the empire than I did (that would not require much effort) while it is also good to see a few other members come out of the woodwork.

I should be able to start submitting the odd game again.

{looking at Warty as he comes aboard "The A.S.S." a shell of his former self

Warty :D Glad to see you... I'd heard that they had Captured you and had been torturing you and using you as leverage to poach our Overlords..

Welcome back...

Tell me how did you escape the Gorss Death Ship..
and thanks for the vote of confidence.. but i'm sure you'd like your seat back. it'll be here when your ready .. i'm sure you'll recover from the terrible injuries that you've sustained while being tortured

And there I was saying that Warty is unlikely to be back. Time to send my crystal ball for servicing again.

BlueSteel, you better catch hold of him if you want to edit ANZAC's empire profile.

Nice way of keeping it interesting here. You have to show some attitude and some creativity to attract those new members. New story lines, lots of posts, jokes, etc.

Now back to the flame....

Damn those southern mutants. Those no good deserters. Maybe that mutation melted away their backbone and they can do is crawl around taking the pirate scraps.

Drop Bear and Space Wombat are no more... Just a few sea urchins on the sea floor now. A nuisance to anyone not careful enough to step on them. Maybe it's step up for those pirates though. They won't have a stupid excuse to fall back on when the Fellowship passes them again in a few days.

... end flame!!!

Ahh...we evolve, Gengsta...we evolve to greatness and mastery of the Metaverse! We shed those old skins when we grew too big for them....and we shall sail the southern skies and plunder them for GROSS!

As for wizards...they did enough of their own recruiting when it suited them. When we 'liberate' resources from the southern Metaverse for our own use, we might even leave a bit of money on the fridge, out of kindness....

Why don't people read posts more carefully? Maybe I should have highlighted the word step the two times I used it to get my true point cross.

Look deeper, my friend, deeper into the ocean. What do you mean your lungs are collapsing? Keep diving!!

As previously stated amongst the Fellowship... Rude? Perhaps. Indecent? Probably. But my motto is "share the trash".

Blue Steel:

sent to incite riots.. etc...

Riots? Among pirates? I'm not sure we would notice. ;)

Slitherin:

Ray. Are you sure you want to hear from me?
End of quote


Ray was refering to Hoop Snake, an overlord from down yonder who joined the Pirates of the Southern Seas. Would you shoot him too if he doesn't switch to the ANZACs? :notsure:

Honestly, what the remaining ANZACs need right now is their original leader (or a transfer of power somehow to a new emperor with the time to commit without resorting to total reorganization) and a will to survive. Get whatever inactive people can be reached back on the forum, or at least get a game out of them once in a rare while. Recruit actively. Sure, ANZAC gets a built in recruitment bonus for being a regional empire (easy to find, easy to identify with, easy to join), but unless you want to go down the road of the Euros and Canadians in being dull and seemingly listless (or undead!), then recruit.

Also, don't cry over proverbial spilt milk. What is lost is lost. Live with it and move on, or die with the baggage. Don't take this advice the wrong way, surviving ANZACs. I have supported and helped several empires in their time, including ANZAC, but a realistic overview of your future is required and not a longing for past glory.
