interesting map. standard size. start on a smallish continent with 2 other cvs. NE is venice ok no real threat. SW is Catherine. Decide I need to take her out asap before she steam rolls me. ruin warrior turns into battering ram. i make a scout and 2 warriors. manage to take her 2 cities by turn 30 and wipe her out of the game.
I could send my small army to venice but venice doesn't expand at all neither is it a threat ever so there really is no point in wiping out the only other civ i have contact with. Plus moving the army all through those jungle and hills on the opposite side of my capital would take countless turns by that time he would have too big of a defense.
So have this continent all to myself basically till turn 150-200 when the rest of the world finds us. By that time the Ottomans are severely ahead of the game having a beefed up city with wonders and out techs me by far. 2 separate play throughs ottomans have been killing the game with 4 other civ on the continent doing alright.
So honor at this point does me no good. The huns special units now serve no purpose. I have to turn the play style from a domination win to a science or dipo route because I can't possibly attack anybody. it would take 7-10 cities to fill up the open space on the continent with each city capable of taking 2-5 luxuries. (This continent is very resource dense) or focus on a few cities. What do you all think?
