im still kind of new but in my situation i am germans and started in a *$@#* spot and suffered for it but was able to get extreme good production from it
i found i had no iron anywhere close to me and would have to fight my way through 2 civs to get to the nearest source which of course is controlled by the seconed civ persia
starting building huge army to whipe out first civ portugal and make my way to the seconed civ that has the iron
traded and got monarchy
switched to monarchy
first time this happened to me the unit support got cut in half my science cost was doubled but corruption went down and production increased signifigently
attacked portugal with a small 67 horseman army and 12 spearmen to secure cities after capture
lost almoset my whole army to 2 cities each with about 5-6 (regular) spearman and all my units are veteran which realy made me mad
took portugals last city but discovered they soehow got 1 last one way the **** on the other side of the continent so made peace with them but deamanded everything they had
of course i had to put science to 40 because of negative income and fell way behind in tech
im pretty sure persia has medieval units by now which my horseman will get murdered if i fight them but i nead their iron
do you guys think there is anyway i could ever win this battle?
and just to tell you most my cities have a barracks which is murding income but helped my army
what do you guys suggest?
the save name is Man they got away because portugal somehow got 1 place on the other side of map
