Well the upside to that approach would be that you can get your army of draftees much quicker. On the other hand, the downside is that your drafted samurais are much weaker than the drafted rifles would be - yes, the samurais have promotions but unlike draftles, they don't ignore city walls...

I knew you would post that as soon as I saw the repost! Glad to see your memory is still working fine ;)

I'm not gonna be able to play before christmas. Feel free to go ahead...

Well, domination shouldn't be too hard. Go full-out draftles, stop building wealth (and thus lower EP slider) but build units.... if Monty re-declares, we can take him out (or at least a decent chunk of him), if he and CdG start warring, even better. I am asking because going to space was part...

No big deal. It's not like we were burning to fight monty anyway. He's already in WHEOOH (as is CdG) so he might redeclare or fight CdG, so he'll be busy one way or another. We surely can use the time in peace treaty to ship over a few spies safely. We should discuss victory condition. Do you...

Ah - I didn't mean to sign peace, if anything a cease fire, but ok... How?? There were no spies near HC, especially none with the discount. Hum, save looks... special :D Should definitely use culture slider since most cities are :mad: and some MM is questionnable but ok. Cities lack infra...

I wouldn't whip too many frigates. Buliding them normally should do, we have plenty of coastal cities. Sounds good. We're not that strong so waiting a few turns until we can take him with rifles is a good idea to limit losses. But if he takes too long with edu, don't bother. Make sure there are...

Quite interesting turnset :) IHT (195) - 3 (198) Nothing, really. Whip some more infra, mostly aqueducts. Put units into place for an assault on Alex. 4 (199) Steal Astro off Alex as I finally had enough EPs. 6 (201) Steal PP off Monty on the second attempt. DOW Alex, move stack...

I'm swamped... if you want you can play some more. I won't get to it before the weekend.

.... so you would go after Alex now, why? I would take out Asoka first, go after Alex with superior units to limit losses and to get cheaper techs by leeching off him whenever possible instead of Monty.

More -ves with Monty, more chance to be attacked. Speaking of civics, our's are pathetic :lol: We should adopt merc and HR when we get the chance. We don't need HR just yet but when we resume warring we will. FR would be great but since lib is such low priority after the free tech this will...

I don't really see what you mean to do. Why nukes? We won't get them before monty. We want to outnumber an AI with one of the highest unit production? To even try we need more land. Talking this far into the future doesn't really help, depends too much on what happens in-between. Either we...

Looks good. I assume you settled the GP that was due in 4 after your stop? Building cuirassiers doesn't make much sense, give that we have many maces and even more :eek: lbows. Our dilemma is who to target next. We really should take on Monty BUT we won't get rifling anywhere other than him...

Take both peace offers now. 40g is nothing to pay. I don't want Alex' junk cities, I would've captured them in order to get a proper peace deal. Now we have the deal, we can stop that war. Take peace with Alex first, that may lower CdG's price further. We've been 3 AI's WE for a while now...

4.5 hrs, must be one hell of a set ;)
