Well, ,my first story, hopefully it wont be boring. I chose Carthage, cause its my favorite civ and the 2.3.1 Numidian Mercenary rocks! And...I didnt want to copy being Rome. Well, i'll try to update as much as I can.:) Also, I want to train some skills on crowded maps.:p So I leave you with a pic of the start position.

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/carthage_1.JPG

Congratulations for your first story. What type of Crowded game? Tiny - 31 civs?
Difficulty?
Crowded maps are great for learning. I achieved a Diety win in 1600 AD, and I couldn't even beat Monarch on that time! Hope it's going to be a very nice story.

@Mirc:Emperor, 16 civs(including me) 38x38, its not that crowded.:p

As General Hannibal stood at the seat of his throne, he realized that he had a disadvantage, technology, he could see that the french were already beginnning to build spears and saw that a babylonian explorer was dressed in broze armor, hannibal realized he must had this bronze material for his own needs.Meanwhile, Earl the Explorer set out on a quest to explore the jungle that surrounded Carthage to the east.

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_2.JPG

General Hannibal:Carl, speed up those roads so we can have more money for learning about bronze.

Carl-Worker: Yes sir!

While the years passed, Earl discovered more land and saw opportunities for cities in these areas, even though they were currently covered in jungle. Soon, Earl met Smoke-Jaguar of the Mayans , and saw that he too was very advanced, and then later, he met the Koreans. Earl sent a letter to General Hannibal saying:

Sir, we have a problem. All other civilizations are getting smarter and smarter , while we are still learning how to make bronze. I heard that some of these other civilizations are building units that use some type of bended stick that shoots pointy sticks with a piercing force.Hopefully the empire is doing strong and we are learning many things.

Your loyay explorer,
Earl

Then, in 3050, Earl saw Korean troops attacking Babylon, but the Korean trooops were quickly slayed by babylonian bowmen. Word soon spread that the Carthagians, which were considered backwards by everyone, was researching a new metal, iron, which could be used to make swords which had a tremendous amount of power. Also, people saw that Carthagians were preparing a settlement near the coast, a new city called Utica. But then Earl saw that Babylonian troops looked suspiciously stacked up in a mountain. I wonder...:hmm: And the french seemed that they wanted to expand their empire too.

The Situation in 3100 BC

Good story. If you get more luxuries and more land, you are sure to win.

Thanks for the info. I would rather place a city near wines, but it's your story and game.
Good luck!

Thanks for the info. I would rather place a city near wines, but it's your story and game.
Good luck!


Actually, thats a good idea, since I probably wont get culture expansion in Utica so early.:)

Yeah he's right where he is putting Utica is next to wine. *hick*
Nice story, this is awesome with the civs so close together, how did you make them able to do that?

As the new millenium ;) , got closer, Hannibal had plans, and those were to make his second city, but on the way, he encountered problems because it seems as soon as he made his construction trip, all the other civs decided to join in too.:mad:
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_4.JPG

So General Hannibal decided to teach Mao of the Chinese a lesson, and goodbye his city went, as the Numidian Mercenary smiled in triumph, and celebrated by settling the new city, Utica. Also, during this time , a golden age went through all of Carthagian lands, yet Chinese soldiers waiting to strike were just around the corner...but so was iron.:p
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_5.JPG

Then, after much beating the heck out of Chinese soldiers, the Numidian Mercenary(Jim) got upgraded to Elite, while Earl got promoted to Veteran. And after so much research, iron working came in, and it seems that the mountain just off the coast of Carthage has some iron deposits.
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_6.JPG

General Hannibal: This is a great discovery indeed. But it seems that the other civilizations have the knowledge...:hmm: What do to now...,well, what you should do, Carl, is get that iron connected. We must start making swordsman at once. The first target, Paris, the peak of perfection, our delicate neighbor, will find a bloody sword on their doorstep, meaning war.:evil:

Carl:Yes sir, will get right on that iron connecting.

Earl:What about me sir?

General Hannibal: You...hmm...you shall become a swordsman, once we get the iron. And fight for your nation.

Earl:*with tears in his eyes*With pleasure sir, it will be an honor to defeat the french.

General Hannibal:Good good, by the way, Carl, you are going to have some assistance, a new worker, Stanley will help you once his training is completed.

Carl:Thank you sir.

General Hannibal:And last order, lets see what these Chinese have to offer for peace...well what do you know...:eek:
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_71.JPG


General Hannibal smiled in triumph, "now you know that you shouldnt mess with the Carthagian empire." While Mao just looked at Hannibal with a disssatisfied face of hatred.

Good start Ansar!

Ha! You settled where I said!

Ha! You settled where I said!


It was a good spot, and I didnt want to start war with France.:)

EDIT:Will try to update soon as possible.

Good start! Crowded games are fun!

I would build two more cities, and then start walking over everyone. You can get your technology from peace offers.

After builiding swordsman and swordsman, it seems that Korea got tired of being stuck up north bored, so it looks like they decided to come pay a visit.
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_8.JPG

General Hannibal stared into the battlefield and was astonished at the results...The evil Koreans took over Utica, but at the end of the turn, it was back under my control.

Years passed, and Carthage built its first boat, and set sail, then, they met the "other people", like Rome, and America, and India.
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_9.JPG

In 1225, I decide its time to get rid of Joan of Arc, and see if she has anything to throw at me.

And so, after a failed attempt at Paris, I decided to lay back and maybe form a AI-AI war, just to make things fun. Well, with this last pic of my current empire.
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_10.JPG

Well, after a failed attempt, I realized, I wasnt prepared, now I know what to expect, and well, any help is appreciated, dont worry, speak up. :) After all, this is my first crowded map, and one of my first attempts at emperor.Currently, im going to build the Hanging Gardens and the Great Library, if I can build both, im set for the game and I can just go attacking all out. Also, Paris has the ToA, should I keep Paris or raze and replace with settlers?

Paris has the ToA, should I keep Paris or raze and replace with settlers?


I would keep it and starve it. While starving it, change the entertainers to scientists or tax collectors.

I would keep just to make sure noone gets that land before you. BTW how did you get that much much civs on one map?

How many units did you attack Paris with?

I was going to attack it with many, but Korea sneak attacked me.:mad:

Connect the Ponies!!!!!

And after a lot of backstabbing and betraying and making lots and lots of weird alliances, I have managed to be in the lead.:)

These are the order of events.


Make an embassy in Chichen Itza, see that the Maya have a lot of units coming towards me.
Declare war on Korea
Sign alliance with Maya against Korea
Maya destroys Korea but captures capital
Maya still too powerful
Make an embassy in Babylon, see that they have decent army.
Declare war on Babylon
Sign alliance with Maya
See that Babylon is weaking Mayan troops
Investigate Chichen Izta, see that Maya only has 4 units in its capital...:mischief:
Make peace with Babylon
Sign RoP with Maya
Stack units near Chichen Itza
Declare War on Maya(and sign alliance with Babylon against Maya)
Attack, unfortunately, there is one red-lined unit left.
Babylon captures Chichen Izta, though Mayans still have Seoul as their capital now.


And then, as General Hannibal watch all of this happen, his greatest engineer, Alex, had pleasant news.

Alex:Sir, we have built the Hanging Gardens. This wonder will make all of our people happy.

General Hannibal: Good , good, you get a promotion, you get to build all sorts of buildings now, not just wonders, now get back to work. Oh and thanks.

Alex: No problem sir, the Hanging Gardens will be made sure to keep your name on it.

General Hannibal sat in his throne when another person came, this time, it was Matt, the military trainer.

Matt:Sir, it seems that now that the Maya are weak and Babylon has weakened too, it seems we should go and attack one of them.

General Hannibal:Yes, it does seem so...but we will need approval of the citizens, they get a say in this dont they?

Matt:Well, either way, as long we are attacking someone since we are making units ready for an upcoming war, also, what do we do about the Incas. Since they declared war on us, they have not sent one unit, so...we leave them alone?

General Hannibal: Incas? Oh, i didnt even know we were in war, shows how much enthuthiasm they have for warmanship. As long as they dont attack, dont care about them, just focus on our neighbors. Also, if you havent noticed, Joan seems like she wants to fight...maybe we should do some inspections and see who is more vulnerable...

Matt: Will get right on it sir. But just for your pleasure, here is a map of our current empire.

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_11.JPG

I love how all your units have a name (Alex, Jim, etc)!

I love how all your units have a name (Alex, Jim, etc)!

Not all are units, some are characters.:)

I saw Hexette (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=62184), it is TINY, BUT EXTREMELY TINY.

What map are you playing on currently?

What do you mean? The settings? :scan:

Like you guys are talking baout the crowded maps. WHich one are you using right now?

All map settings are in the first two posts ;)

Hey how come the Aztec Capital is not Tenochtitlan?? :hmm:

Somebody have captured it ;)

Yeah I just dont reaf through it all and I didnt see him mention it, maybe he did. Carl rocks, when will he dominate the world?:D

Updates? This story rocks.:goodjob: :rockon::worship:

Update very soon, let me write it up. Also, the aztec capital hasnt changed ,its just that the Aztecs made a city up north and made a temple.:)

While Carthage prepared itself for the battle, swordsman were being made for the great fall of Paris, it seemed that everything was going well. But then, as General Hannibal was watching training of swordsmen done by Matt , he turned and realized Matt suddenly was at the doorstep.

Matt: General Hannibal? Can I come in?

General Hannibal: Sure, nice work out there with the new swordsmen. Looks like they could use some fighting.

Matt:Thats just what I needed to talk about...General Hannibal, I took some calculations and it seems we are only average, compared to France, but to Babylon, which we recelenty backstabbed thanks to my great idea, we are strong, I suggest a attack on Chichen Itza.

General Hannibal: I thought I came up with the backstabbing idea..:hmm:, oh, what? Yeah, attacking Babylon sounds great, it was my plan all along to try and take over Chichen Itza anyways.

Matt: Very well then, I will tell swordsmen to report to our post in the hill south of the Chichen Itzan mountains.

But then General Hannibal realized it was a time of change, so he realized that he needed to change, and so, a town meeting was held, and in this town meeting, General Hannibal announced a change was in order, no longer would the citizens of Carthage and Utica be ruled under a iron fist, but under a King, a monarchy, the citizens liked this idea, but took time to get adjusted. So production was stopped for 80 yrs.(4 turns), and so, after 80 yrs, Carthage became a monarchy, and people realized they were doing much better, the 2 cities were growing much faster and production and wealth increased, so did happiness and the military production cost decreased. But then, when all was fine and dandy, China came a knocking...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_12.JPG

Yeah well, China? Bring it on!

Finally, after a bloodshed of murder, and counting, the toll only came to 2 chinese spears and one chinese archer since all Chariots and Horsemen ran away like little girls.Also, another surprise popped up in about 200AD.
An Incan sneak attack!:eek:

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_13.JPG

Turns out Inca was planning something...:lol: , well after that. It was just micromanaging both cities. And finally in 340 AD, it happened...
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_14.JPG

and the war began. Turns out it didnt last long, just the next turn...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_15.JPG

Though easy, this will be a tricky situation to handle...Until next time...

:worship:

Nice update

Short Update

As General Hanniba got his trip to Chichen Itza with his trusty swordsman, Earl, he watched as the brave swordsmen defeated the weak babylonian bowmen. And one by one, the babylonian bowmen came defeated and the swordsman kept winning flawlessly, General Hannibal thought to himself, "i will have to give Matt a promotion...", and as soon as he thought that, one of the brave Elite swordsman, Moe, killed a babylonian bowmen, and a man stepped out of the shadows congratulating Moe. He said he could train swordsmen into groups, but he would require that Carthage proved itself more than a tribe of warriors.(I had to build a 4th city to make an army.)

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_16.JPG

Then, in the later years, Carthage built Leptis Magna, and the great man trained Moe and 2 other swordsmen into a army, the 3 swordsmen would work together as one. But then Carthage realized that Chichen Itza would not grow so much, and it wasnt even his own village, it was a captured village, he thought of keeping it, but he wasnt sure, he would have to ask the villagepeople once again...when Hannibal returned to his castle, he was shocked to find that his servants had made a peace treaty with babylon for exchange in 2 babylonian workers.":hmm:, Hannibal thought, not a bad trade for a couple of servants...", also, a letter of appreciation was soon written to Matt explaining the plans Hannibal thought and he would have to discuss with the townspeople.He carefully drew the battle plan and the ideas...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_17.JPG




Btw, you guys are townspeople, any time I say I will ask the townspeople you guys can decide if i should attack or not or keep, well, when I ask the townspeople cause sometimes im not sure...:blush: . Sometimes I may not go with the townspeople but most of the times I will, like connecting the ponies, or building Utica one tile SW.:)

I would get rid of Chichen Itza, cities by the capital shouldn't be that close.

Um...Chichen Itza is not my capital...;)

If enemy capital is close to your city, it will be more likely to flip ;)

I'll update after school,since im posting from school right now. You will see what happened, it will be a BIG update :) . But not so many pictures. :(

Great updates, I'm sorry I'm not at home so I can't follow the story.

Waiting for more updates, don't let me to call in an ambulance for you :lol: :lol:
Now I'm itching to play crowed map too, it seems to be very fun :mischief:

It is fun! I love playing crowded maps!

I tried now crowed tiny map with 31 civs on deity.
Maybe it is bug, but my settler was surrounded by 5 another settlers, and they didn't moved. When I got my first warrior I whacked them all and got 3 slaves for each :mischief:
Mirc, did you played on small map, or with less number of civs? It seems like there is no room for all civs on tiny map, so those settlers doesn't moved :rolleyes:

set the distance between civs >1.

set the distance between civs >1.

If you set the distance too high though the map generator will try to space them out really far and eventually give up, and simply put the start locations next to each other.

I've had the best results using distance values between 2 and 4.

Update coming up!!!:D

...:coffee: :rockon: ...

Waiting for the BIG update with patience, good sir. :worship:

After the years passed that Hannibal watched Leptis Magna grow and prosper, he also saw that Utica completed a "Great Library" where scholars from all over the world came and discussed about new technology, this helped Carthage advance into the a new age, the Middle Ages. But then Hannibal realized, that his plan, of taking over Teotihuacan was perfect for striking at this moment. That said, Moe's army went and prepared itself at the Dutch border between Leptis Magna and Teotihuacan.

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_18.JPG

Finally, the city of Teotihuacan fell to Carthage, and it didnt riot, it actually seemed happier considering we provided luxuries unlike their previous owners, the Dutch and Aztecs.But then, after the fall of Teotihuacan, Hannibal requested to talk to Matt and Arnold(the foreign advisor).

General Hannibal:Welcome Matt and Arnold. Matt, you probaby have met Arnold, our foreign advisor minister.

Matt:Welcome Arnold.

Arnold:Thank you both. It is a pleasure being here.

General Hannibal:Ok, lets get down to business...Arnold, Im planning a attack on Joan, but I need some background info, how is she treating our merchants?

Arnold: Pathetically, she wont even to a lux to a lux. And her attitude wont change from annoyed.

General Hannibal:Hmm, I see, do we have any current deals with Joan?

Arnold:No, not since...well, actually, not since we first met which we traded lux for lux, nothing more.

General Hannibal: Very well then, Matt, how are the troops?

Matt:Well sir, it seems that we are strong compared to Joan, but the fact that we have an army, akes the details seem doubtful.

General Hannibal: Well, do you think we have enough swordsmen to take her down?

Matt:Sir, we dont build swordsmen anymore. Recently a scholar from Sumeria came and taught us Feudalism, which led us to discovering ancient body protection for our swordsmen and new weapons, called Maces, which will do much more damage than swords.

General Hannibal::hmm:I see. Well, start building some of those, I expect a strong force ready to strike Paris and take down Joan of Arc once and for all.

Matt:Well sir, we also have a new advanced archer, called Longbowmen, they are basically archers that use a bigger bow, dealing bigger damage, and easier to train.

General Hannibal: Make a couple of each, we could use a variety.

Matt: Yes sir, the training will begin at once.


And then ,after years of training Medieval Infantry and Longbowmen, Hannibal saw that it was time...time to strike the French capital of Paris.
Troops stacked up against Paris and Joan noticed this, she ordered the troops to leave immeadeately. Carthage refused, and so the war began, but a funny thing, rather stupid also, was the French troop movement. It seemed they wanted to take the slaves and didnt care about the troops...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_20.JPG

And this made for quite an easy victory...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_19.JPG

And so, Carthage saw that Paris contained the holy Temple of Artemis, which brought temples to all the Carthagian empire, all people smiled and saw that their cultural borders expanded, the Carthagian influence was spreading...next, Hannibal thought, will be the Aztecs...they hold the Pyramids,which are heard to be sacred all around the world...Hannibal thought, "they must be mine"...and so, ends another chapter of the Crowded Carthagians , until next time...

WoOt wOoT go Ansar! Nice update.

WoOt wOoT go Ansar! Nice update.


Thank you.:thumbsup:

Next update will be tomorrow...:cool:

I like your style of story :thumbsup:
Kill 'em all! :ar15:

Err... It's 1090 AD and everyone still only knows how to fight with sticks and swords? They don't even know how to educate people yet?! :crazyeye:
What's with the tech pace?

Well the average is only one to two cities, and the more cities the more science, the less cities the less science, eh?

It is because Ansar have built GLib, and AI is researching very slow at emperor, especisally on crowed map with only 1-2 cities.

I don't know if this is different on C3C, but in vanilla I'm pretty sure AI researches at discounted tech prices in addition to building units at discounted shield cost... at least, that's how the AI made it to modern age in 1000 AD on a crowded (16 civs on 60x60 map) deity game I played once.

16 civs on 60x60 is still a lot of room for an AI to expand...Im doing 18 civs on a 38x38, big difference.;)

And this is emperor, not deity.

Yeah, the AI get a 60something discount on everything. ;)

Is this on ccquest?

Do you mean [c3c]?

Um yeah whatever Civ3 Conquests, is played on that?

I enjoy the comments on your pictures. It shows how stupid the AI can be.

Seoul, new Mayan capital? Ye gods!

I enjoy the comments on your pictures. It shows how stupid the AI can be.


Yes, I agree. They add to an excellent story.

Yes, it is C3C. There are many clues. ;)

Great update, Ansar! Keep conquering!!!

Mayans are there...

Today's update?:D

Today's update?:D


It's coming. Sorry for the delay, my family is sick with the flu, and so am I.:(

As Hannibal thought his plan of attacking the Aztecs, another idea came to him, now that he had france, why not attack Joan's old neighbor, Mao? After all, Mao had caused trouble in the past by attempting to delay the construction of Utica, which would have slowed down the Carthagian production by ALOT. When he thought of this, Hannibal called Matt to see what he thought...

General Hannibal:Good afternoon Matt.

Matt:Good afternoon General Hannibal.

General Hannibal: I was planning a attack on China, since we captured Paris.

Matt: Yes, and I have a plan...

General Hannibal: Well then, speak up.:)

Matt:Well, after doing an investigation inside Beijing, it seems that China has barely any spearmen, but looks like an infinite amount of horsemen.

General Hannibal: Infinite...:hmm: thats a pretty big number...

Matt:Yes, I was thinking using the same tactic we used on Joan, surely as neighbors they probably planned the same stupid technique way

General Hannibal: Yes, you are right, we shall sign a Right of Passage, and then attack them.

Matt:Leaving them with only horsemen to defend their capital.:evil:

General Hannibal: Very well, the attack will be done at dawn.

General Hannibal: This meeting is over.

Matt: Thank you sir, Im glad we had this talk, this will be one more enemy down.

http://img419.imageshack.us/img419/4296/omega1tl.gif

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_21.JPG

Well, well, Mao, goodbye...

After the great siege of Beijing, it seemed that the English wanted some Carthagian blood, but with some planning, I managed to sign them up against the aztecs, and down both forces went.

General Hannibal was watching all of these battles, but he couldnt understand why everyone was trying to attack him. He called Alex for a quick meeting.

General Hannibal: Alex, how are the cities doing?

Alex:Very good, all except for Teotihuacan, the little amount of happiness-producing buildings is not helping.

General Hannibal: Must be the corruption...build a courthouse.

Alex: Yes, that must be the case.

General Hannibal: Well, anyways, lets get back on topic.It seems the AI is now more bloodthirsty for Carthagian blood than before.

Alex: You dont say...

General Hannibal: Yes, And I think I know why.

Alex: Could it be our spread out style of building?

General Hannibal: Possibly.

Alex: The AI are probably getting annoyed because we are hogging up their homeland.

General Hannibal: THEIR HOMELAND?! This is going to be my future land!

Alex: Well, you see? They are jealous of your great power.

General Hannibal: Ahh, well, thats ok.

Alex: Well, good bye sir.

As the meeting was over,Hannibal saw that Dutch forces were stacked up along the Aztec-Carthagian border...
He wondered why would there be so many troops...:hmm: Then, it hit him, Paris was undefended... He had to do something.
But before he could, dutch troops came marching down. Luckily, Jim, the legendary Elite Numidian Mercenary, came and protected Paris, along with Moe's Army for backup.
Unfortunately, the Dutch didnt seem to care about the slaves, they wanted more the luxurious town of Paris.
But as soon as Moe's Army stationed itself in Paris, the dutch troops just went around aiming now for Carthage, luckily, right after they passed Paris far enough for Paris to be safe, Moe's Army went and attacked the stack of dutch troops.
Fortunately, no cities were captured, but the city of Rotterdam was becoming quite famous for is Art of War and its Great Lighthouse.
Carthage wanted these wonders for himself. But for now, it was only defending his empire that was on his mind.
But then, Matt came rushing inside the room.

Matt: Sir, tons and tons of Mayan and Babylonian units are coming towars us...

General Hannibal: What?!

Matt: Yes, see from Leptis Magna's hills, we can see approximately about 20-something units heading our way

General Hannibal: Uh-oh, and look, a hittie warrior!

Matt: Thats what bringing them!

General Hannibal: Eliminate him!

Matt: At once sir!

General Hannibal: Uh-oh

Matt: Yes, the hittie warrior is dead, but now tons of Babylonian and Mayan units are stacked up near us.

General Hannibal: But...their next to each other...:evil:

Matt: Oh yes! We can do the same trick we pulled on them we did thousands of years ago.:evil:

General Hannibal: Exactly.:evil:

General Hannibal: Now, lets see how this will turn out...:evil:

Matt: Very well, I will be watching...this will seem good.:evil:

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_22.JPG

Woah, there's a brown city on the other continent already. Did you capture Veii from the Romans already, or do my eyes deceive me?

Theres a war going on the other continent going on between Rome and India, so as soon as India captured Veii, I took it, it has the Sistine Chapel.:cool:

Oooooooooo Aaaaaaaahh

I wonder whats gonna happen. You'll get lucky if the Babs attack the Mayans or the other way around.

Oh yeah you might want to attack babylon if the mayans dont while the Bab's troops are just sitting around.

Yes, probably, a sneak attack like last time.:evil: :devil:

Looking forward to the update. You might want to move a couple more untis up to defend in case. You could probably also sign an allience with the mayas agains the Babs, and hope they get occupied.

like i know your totally kicking ass, but on such a small map, i would have crowded as many citys as i could, you can't possibly be working all your tiles.

Oh yeah can we see a pic of the city you captures, and what is the sitation on that continent?

Nice Story. I like your conversations. Reminds me of Handy900's AWS with Theodora. Yours doesn't have the inapproprate aspects. Still very funny. A little more detail would be nice. You didn't tell us you captured Sistine, that would be good info.

Well, sorry, I just sometimes forget about details, im not much of a storyteller.:blush:

Well, update coming soon.:)

After Hannibal planned his attack on Babylon, he carried on with it, but first, he realized he still had to get rid of annoying India, well, after all, they are trying to take back Veii. So...I sign a peace treaty+RoP with India and well, stack some troops on Indian border...and...

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_23.JPG

Bye, bye, Ghandi, good thing you didnt make it to the Modern Age.:)

Then, Hannibal realized, now that that "peace-loving" old guy is gone, lets get back on track. Ahh, yes, where was I? Babylon destruction, yes, well.
As Hannibal watch Matt command the troops to the Babylonian border, Hannibal watched Babylon , andsaw that soon it would be his. And sooner than later it became, only a few inspections is all was missing. And before you could say, "ha, I told you so!" Babylon was gone. Hannibal had decided to get rid of it.:p

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_24.JPG

And as soon as Hammurabi was gone, Hannibal realized that he was once again beginning to be bloodthirsty for an empire, so for a few years, he made the necessary troops, trained by none other than Matt. So, once the training was done, Hannibal remembered that Babylon was destroyed, yet Babylonians still existed in the other continent, this made Hannibal quite angry.:mad: :mischief: So, he ordered boats to be built , to reach the other continent and wipe out Hannibal once and for all.
Once the troops got the other continent, they marched for Delhi, the new Babylonian capital.:lol: But when Hannibal's troops captured Delhi, he recieved a letter.

Sir, or victory is Delhi is quite an accomplishment, wouldnt you say? I hope so. Well, when we captured Delhi, we encountered some problems...everyone speaks a different tounge, some are Incan, some are Babylonian, and some are Hiitie, so...yea, we are probably going to need Alex's crew here fast to turn these foreigners into Carthagian citizens.

Sincerily, Cruze the Cruzader.
http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_25.JPG

Well, Hannibal decided, he would send Alex's best crew to Delhi, and straiten up the situation.:) Meanwhile, Cruze's soldiers, took over Babylon's last city, Ugarit, finally destroying the Babylonians.:thumbsup:

But then, Hannibal felt like killing another opponent. So he decided to pay a visit to old Smokey, and what better group of people than Moe's Army to come for a visit...and what a visit it was, by the end of the party, Seoul was Carthagians, wonder what must have happened overnight...:mischief:

http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads11/Carthage_26.JPG

Finally, after getting rid of old smokey, it seemed that the Mongols wanted some piece of my land, :cough: Ugarit :cough:, so while they were sending troops, I signed with Sumeria, and let them busy, while I sent a boatload of units to take over Karakorum. And such an easy victory it was.:D

And then, after some remodeling on the cities, it seemed everything was going well, till Monty came knocking...and Hannibal decided, if you cant beat em, join em, so he declared war on England and made a military alliance with aztecs, so, Hannibal got the good part of the deal, London, which included the infamous Great Wall.:cool: Which really helped the small cities by making walls around them for protection. Also, Hannibal realized another part of his empire now was at his command. Though culture buildings would need to be rushed, considering London was surrounded by cultural cities on all sides.:(

So, then, Hannibal realized that the Dutch attacked Ugarit, hmm, thats how you wanna play Billy? then thats how we'll play.:evil: Hannibal signed the Aztecs and both kept busy while Hannibal micromanaged his empire until a notice arrived from the United Civilization Council.

Dear King of Carthage, we are pleased to inform you that you now own the world, you have succesfully achieved a domination victory, you now control the world.:devil:

Yay me, I won my first crowded game.:)

Wow... that was... sudden.

Didn't expect you'd post such a huge update, but congrats! Very well-played.
:clap:

Good Job! That looked fun!

Great Job! :thumbsup:
It happened so fast!
BTW, is this a mod? I saw you are in 1820 AD and you are researching Banking.

No, I never researched Banking, but the AI's were catching up and heading to the Industrial Age, which is what really scared me because they could have been learning Nationalism.:sad:

This is not a mod. I just remained for a very long time in 0% science, so I had lots of money to rush buildings.:D

Well done :goodjob:.
But it was too fast, just 5 days! :dubious:

* Waiting the next story *

Its crowded, its supposed to be fast. Also, I may not be doing any more stories for a long time. Like I said before, Im not much of a storyteller.;)

Oh, but this was awesome. Keep playing and keep posting updates. :D

Oh, but this was awesome. Keep playing and keep posting updates. :D

Um...the story is over.:crazyeye:

Yeah I know but you can say something like let me play a few more turns, Ive done that before.

Yeah I know but you can say something like let me play a few more turns, Ive done that before.

Ansar could, but I doubt the AI will ever stop him.

Yah I know but it would just fun to see him conquer everyone.
