OPEN GAMEL: MD1 - European Powers Germany

[mauiduck]

OK Let's try this again....

The scenario is a realistic modified huge world Marla/Singer modified map. The civs are all in the proper places and are Germany, France, England, Russia, China, India, Japan, US, Aztecs and Zulus. Zulus and Aztecs are slightly crippled to keep them from having the whole continent to themselves. This is a no-holds barred Monarch game.

1) 20 turns apiece

2 No nukes unless nuked or for navy battles

3) Good Luck!

Duck Von Clauswitz

4000 BC -- Tribe moves south towards Alps to be in range of gold

3950 BC -- Berlin founded

3900 BC -- Move worker towards cattle herd

3850 BC -- Build road. Nothing else.

3800 BC -- Barbarian tribe appears in the Alps. Workers should be far enough away.

3750 BC -- Barbarians move towards Berlin. Workers sent to weat fields west of Berlin for safety

3700 BC -- Barbaria ransack Berlin. 15 gold is ransack and tribal counsel not amused. The first generation of warriors emerge.

3650 BC -- Worker returns. Warriors stand guard.

3600 BC -- Spearmen about to be built so Warrior moves towards western Alps. Worker moves to forest region near the Danube.

3550 BC -- Warrior moves towards west sees Paris. We meet the French and get Masonry from them for Warrior Code. Alphabet was first call but to much DE Mark for our people.

3500 BC -- Our borders expand giving us the gold in Berlin. Our warrior moves towards the southern Alps.

3450 BC -- Warrior spies unexplored huts. Moves east towards them

3400 BC -- Spearman built and fortified, Build one more Spearman.

3350 BC -- Tribe of Celts teaches us Cermomonial Burial. Warrior moves east towards more huts.

3300 BC -- Nothing

3250 BC -- Nothing

3200 BC -- Warrior crosses over Rhone River and encounters myseterious Selks. Their shamen give scrolls of Mysticism to our shaman and Germany advances again

3150 BC -- Spearmen group heads west towards coast to explore another mysterious tribe. Warrior continues east. Settler started

3100 BC -- Nothing

3050 BC -- Tribe turns out to be hostile Gauls. Spearmen rise up in defense of Berlin and take up postions along the Rhine River. Our spearman are valiant but are not considered to be Veterans by their elders. Warriors in east spot Russian scout. These Russians want to give us Pottery for 3 gold per turn and 32 gold as as Warrior Code. Our great chiefs use their Germanic powers of persuasion to get them down to 29 gold and 1 per turn as well as the Warrior Code. A great snow has impacted Berlin and with it the Great Chief Clauswitz of the Duck Clan passes and so now the rulers club passes to..?

I was originally going to go second, but EQ can have it. If s/he's done by the time I get home tonight, I'll take third.

I just downloaded the game. I'll take the next 20 turns, and then we can go back to the original order. If EQ posts before tomorrow-say by noon EST-that he wants to take the second turn, I'll let him, and go third, as originally planned.

Marc

[Judge Dredd]

I think 3+ days is long enough to wait. EQ should be placed at the bottom of the list and the order should continue...if you can play turns and post the game. I will be around at 2:00am CST and will be able to play the next round.

[mauiduck]

Sounds good..everyone move up so Judge your on deck with EQ playing. While real life beckons for all 72 hours should be the cut off to keep the game going...

The Order is now:

1. tcmarcl (playing)

2. Judge Dredd

3. EQCivFanatic

4. ??? (will be me if no one else)

5. Mauiduck

[Judge Dredd]

You do mean tmarc playing, right?

Tmarc: Play and post. EQ will have to catch up...

[tmarcl]

Alright. I'm done. Here's the save game, and my report.

1) 3000 BC Drove off a camp of Barbarians to the East of Berlin. My people were so happy, they put a new front on my cave. Also noticed a strange city far off to the north west. It's not French or Russian, but our scouts have no idea who they are.

2) 2950 BC Nothing.

3) 2900 BC A group of colonists asked permission to set up a new city to the north. I gave it to them, and started building a road in that direction.

4) 2850 BC Dispersed another Barbarian camp.

5) 2800 BC Nothing.

6) 2710 BC City of Leipzig is founded. I set up a build queue, but feel free to change it if you have a better idea.

7) 2760 BC Our brave Vetran Warriors were slain while attempting to take out yet another Barbarian camp.

8) 2590 BC Nothing.

9) 2550 BC Nothing.

10) 2470 BC Nothing.

11) 2430 BC A group of colonists asked permission to build a new city to the south, where there are gold deposits. I gave it to them, and will soon begin building a road in that direction.

12) 2390 BC Nothing

13) 2350 BC The city of Leipzig began a military training program, building our nations first barracks.

14) 2310 BC Began building a road towards the new colony.

15) 2270 BC Sent a worker to irrigate some fertile fields to the northeast of Berlin.

16) 2230 BC The City of Hamburtg is founded. I set up a build queue, but again, feel free to change it should you desire.

17) 2190 BC Nothing.

18) 2150 BC Nothing.

19) 2110 BC Nothing.

20) Our shamans have discovered the secret of Iron Working. I instructeed them to now study Polytheism (aiming for Monarchy. Again, feel free to change this.) Discovered the secret of Alphabet by trading Iron Working with the French. Drove off a Barbarian attack to the southeast of Hamburg, and discovered there is a source of iron in those hills.

Got it. Will play this morning and post by afternoon.

2070BC - Kaiser Dredd assumes command of the Germanic Tribe. Seeing the need for Germany to expand, he gears his reign to the building of new German cities.

2030BC- German warrior investigates a barbarian tribe. The Alemanni tribe teaches us of The Wheel. We find that we have several sources of horses within what will ultimately become our borders.

1990BC- Leipzig sends forth a settler to build a city on the western shore of our continent. This city will have a two tile overlap with Berlin, but has many bonus resources available and will grow to be a strong city.

1950BC- Warrior spots barbarian SE of Hamburg. Being wounded, our warrior falls back towards Hamburg.

1910BC- Konigsberg is founded just North of Paris. Seeing the need to push our cultural borders to the maximum, I begin work on a Temple.

1870BC- We make contact with a people called the British. They are far behind in techs (we are 4 ahead), and only have 2 cities beyond their capital. They are not seen as a viable threat, yet.

1830BC- Warrior returns to Hamburg and prepares for barbarian assault.

1790BC- Barbarians are soundly defeated by Spearmen of Hamburg. Another settler is ready at Berlin. I dispatch them to the rich areas East of Berlin. Another settler is commissioned in Berlin.

1750BC- The dastardly French settle the city of Orleans right next to a location I consider prime. This will be a source of stress between our peoples, and one day Orleans will burn...

1725BC- Leipzig completes warrior unit. Sent to Konigsberg for MP/Guard duty.

1700BC- Nothing.

1675BC- Frankfurt is founded. A Temple is commissioned there, our borders MUST expand!

1650BC- Workers continue to improve our great nation.

1625BC- Two settlers are produced. One in Hamburg is sent to the East. The other from Berlin is sent to settle near Orleans. It will be a major military base, which some day will be used to crush Orleans.

1600BC- Workers improving, settlers moving. We trade Pottery + Russian contact + 75 gold to the French for Writing.

1575BC- We trade contact with the British to France for 60 Gold. The British have nothing to offer so the deal is good for our treasury.

1550BC- We connect the Iron South of Hamburg. Start work on our first Swordsman in Hamburg!

1525BC- Joan becomes alarmed at our Settler in her territory. We tell her to chill out and move our unit through what will soon be our lands.

1500BC- We complete a Temple in Konigsberg. Yet another tribute to our Righteous Empire! Work begins on another Settler to build our empire. Munich is also founded to the East of Hamburg. A worker is required to imporve the land a bit, but once finished, this will be a powerful Seaport city!

1475BC- A Barracks is complete in Berlin. Work begins on yet another Settler. We will flood this continent with the Germanic People! Heidelburg is also founded East of Orleans. A Temple is started immediately to push our cultural borders.

1450BC- The reign of Kaiser Dredd comes to an end, uneventfully. During His time Germany has grown to be the strongest country in the known world! With 7 cities and technology far superior to our neighbors.

Notes: We are lacking workers and our military is not awe inspiring. Our military is at least average if not larger than our neighbors, but should be stronger. We now have the ability to create swordsman. We do need to keep growing. So don't neglect Settlers. Two are in production right now. Obvious spots are SE, E, and NE.

[falsfire]

Hi. It looks like you guys are still a tad short of players on this, if there's room I'd like to step in, I will pick it up after mauiduck posts his turn, or at any other spot in the rotation if you'd prefer.
