I'm hoping the horses are not on the other side of the Danube from us! From the link above given by Jesusin it sounds like this will be a pretty cramped map. Am I right in assuming that although we are playing on a Team Battleground map, that the AI are not playing as teams? Cheers Jack

Afraid Cuteness got viciously gang raped by the Boyz from the Hood, suffered a conquest defeat at the joint hands of Napoleon and Montezuma - was just surprised that Shaka didn't join in the fun! This was the first time that I have played on Quick speed, and the pace really took me by...

Think I just snatched the award from you, Socralynnek :cry: I got destroyed by barbs in 2360 BC. I had settled probably in the same place as KCD Swede, but then had a brain fart instead of a pig fart when I saw the stone and decided to build the Great Wall, so researched masonry before bronze...

Okay, am now thoroughly confused, since I missed looking onthe site for a while and so do not know what was snipped by the mods. reading between the lines, something was a bit dicky with the original download - I downloaded as soon as the saves came out but haven't opened yet. Do I need to...

Time loss 2050AD for me. I started out well enough, attacking Louis to my north and quickly taking Paris. I took peace for a tech from him while gathering new forces to continue the attack. Eventually I forced him off the mainland leaving him with just an islad city off the coast. Next up...

Wow! This is going to be a monster scrap:ar15: I just tried Ronnie1's test game, and was getting absolutely peppered by barbs. I eventually managed to get a settler out to the north and after much fighting got horses linked up, but that was first after a hundred or so turns. The horses are...

Cultural Victory 1908 AD Very slow cultural victory. I declared on Hatty very early on, and that war dragged on for ages before I wiped her out, setting me back a bit. Spent the rest of the game either building culture buildings or culture, in between being savagely attacked by various AI...

PM sent, thanks. Jack

Can you gents clarify a point for me? I have already started to play this game, but now find I have a question about it. Is it allowed to ask questions at this point, and if so where should I do it? The answer to my question would obviously have a bearing on how I proceed with my game, so I...

Looks to be something on the tile NW-N of the scout - maybe corn? Jack

Plan A was simple - go for a culture victory. Plan A bit the dust early on after I settled in place but then missed the first 2 religions. I still kept my hopes up though, and settled everything to the west and north of Moscow. Toku kindly spread Confucianism to me early on, which I adopted...

The results page is pointing to BOTM 36? Cheers Jack

Saves still not posted yet? I'm getting a "Sorry, the game page you requested is not currently available" message. Sorry for my impatience, I'm always like that when I know Santa is coming :p Thanks Jack

Spaceship loss to MM in 1827AD Wow, I was just amazed to last so long :) Was miles and miles behind everybody else. Only got attacked once by Napoleon, fairly early on, but he only sent a horse archer, a chariot and a cat at me. I was able to beat them off at London and he never sent anything...

Aaarrrggghhh! Suffered a diplomatic defeat to Cathy with just 22 turns of the game remaining! My plan was to found 3 cities in the valley and defend the hill at the entrance. This worked out pretty well, a lot of opposing troops passed under my nose but generally passed by without attacking...

2008 Diplo Victory Went into this expecting to lose as I normally do at this level, so didn't really have a plan. Soon found I was alone on the island and started to settle the land. Went exploring with galleys but sent both westwards and didn't discover Asoka and Washington till fairly...

Just for the sake of good order, note that the write up in original post has the leader title as Asoka, not Alexander - not important, as the description is for Alexander...but as I said, just for the sake of good order :) Cheers Jack

Shortest game I've ever played. I managed to settle the copper city, but Saladin settled between it and my capital, and within a couple of turns his culture zone expanded to take the copper. I was amazed how quickly the AI expanded, I was boxed in within a matter of minutes, and within a...

Jesusin, I for one am very happy if you ask questions - it may help to point out to me something stupid that I have done, which the better players (of whom you are certainly one) would not have done, so your question will make me question why I did something and maybe learn from it. Jack

Well, because I was expecting either that some friendly neighbourhood lunatic would be knocking on my doors soon, mainly because of all the messages I was seeing about Great Generals being born. Jack
