Dominatrix Cathy - round 7 (to 1120AD), part 3
Bulbing education shaves off 13 turns. Nice.
Capital is pretty much improved as I intended now, a forge will be handy too.
Angkor Thom could do with a library, we will be building universities to enable Oxford soon.
Both Pacal and Mansa adopt vassalage. Probably too late for Mansa, and Pacal is about to be Dow'd by Izzy I think.
The defences are bombarded at Mansa's capital, no need for my spies, they are too slow without engineering
I lose a few cats but they just get better and better with the collateral damage
So it is just a case of mopping up in the end
I use my Great General medic to deliver the
coup de grace. She (for it is Joan of Arc herself, albeit with a beard) is closest to 26xp for West Point later.
Let's see you tech really fast now, Mansa.
Nice, Stonehenge and the Colossus, and an academy too. He seems to have a free scientist specialist as well, I have no idea how that came about, must be a random event?
My maces arrive at Mansa's Southern city
I win that battle, that city will fall soon. If I capture it I will raze it I think, it is too close to the sugar city.
Razing it will mean Mansa won't be a happy bunny if he capitulates to me though, is he prepared to throw in the towel?
He is. I stopped playing there.
I think I should take the capitulation, then I can focus on dogpiling Pacal when Izzy declares on him. Drama is a nice sweetener to the deal as well. Mansa is still cautious with me even with the war, so it shouldn't be hard to get him friendly enough to trade techs.
I think that round (and the previous one) went rather well anyway.
Here's the save, remember it uses the HOF mod.
