I am the Barbarian with the 15 airlines which are currently ranked 1-15 in game Rδ.

 

I wanted to post and just mention that while these airlines are truly spammy, for players who are not interested in spamlines, to "keep the faith" and "hang in there."  I created this network of spamlines to generate enormous valuations in order to fend off the threat of another potential competing alliance which, well, is no friend of the Barbarians...and which often materializes in "Unlimited Airlines per Player" games.  So far, this competing alliance has not emerged so far in Rδ.  I will keep adding to my valuations for the majority of this game to truly try to keep ahead of such a competitive threat should it emerge later on in the game.

 

However, if we get towards the end of this game and the competitive spamline threat I am protecting my alliance against does not materialize, then barring vaporized by WW3 nukes or some other IRL calamity, I plan to liquidate the majority of my airlines.  The idea is to allow others with more realistic airlines to have a shot at most of the valuation trophies available in this game. 

 

While I feel it is important to try and prevent a certain historic alliance in Rδ from further monopolizing valuation trophies, I don't want to simply take its place.  This monopolization may be driving people out of the game, and my goal is not to drive people away from AE.  I want to win, but I don't want to monopolize.

 

That's all for now...just wanted to make sure you know I'm not trying to be as greedy as I may seem.

 

And major kudos to the founder of RitzAir for creating the "Barbarians at the Gates" Alliance!  If you're based in the USA in Rδ I recommend joining.  You'll get a LOT of through traffic from any mutual hub!

Here We were planning not to play this round. This sounds a tempting challenge. Might take it up but probably won't. We have been busier lately and might conclude that 282 trophies is enough.

I'm back to update.

 

With the game winding down, I have liquidated all but two of my airlines.  The, uh, "imperial" threat that has plagued many recent unlimited airlines per player games never materialized.  Glad to see a variety of players and play styles finish in the top 10 to get valuation trophies in this game.

We are not impressed. Your airline has a valuation of only $25 trillion, whereas The Empire has exceed one quadrillion. You are 2% of The Empire. In Our Empire, we judge you as being perhaps worthy of the deputy consular's office of Cappadocia. From Our (temporary?) retirement, and having vanquished your airlines previously, We scorn your imperial pretensions.

 

We can identify several easily-explainable aspects of your game-play that reflect a failure to understand how to be truly Imperial. Your route structure and aircraft selection reflect that your analysis of the game is not on par with The Emperor's (August, Terrible, etc.). 

 

We decline to explain these these aspects to you. Can anyone else guess them, having entered the world in the brief window remaining and looked at this barbarian's airlines? If you can, you will have proved yourself potentially worthy to your Emperor.
