GZ cabert and Sun Tzu Wu for your Deity games

And Respect to Neilmeister for his endurance!

 

[cabert]

thanks seraiel, no big deed
but enough to get my 4th place back in the quattromaster table

 

[Sun Tzu Wu]

GZ cabert and Sun Tzu Wu for your Deity games

And Respect to Neilmeister for his endurance!

I need to learn from cabert and pick the "low hanging fruit", but any #1 Deity win is impressive; congratulations cabert!

Neilmesiter, that's an impressive number (6) of Huge and Large Immortal RL DV wins! Congratulations!

Thanks Seraiel! You are posting some very good games as well! Congratulations! You can also get a higher scoring game using a Small map like WastinTime did a while ago.

Sun Tzu Wu

 

[cabert]

well, it was a low hanging fruit I already had, but still worth a lot of quattro points

edit: congrats to you STW!!! and a lot of congrats to neilmeister and seraiel for long and hard work

 

[neilmeister]

Yes, I was targeting the Huge Immortal's for Quattro points. The dates aren't that good, I included barbs in some of them, as I was still confident of getting the #1.

Well done Sun Tzu Wu, those aren't just Deity #1's, but they would have required you to play almost the perfect games. For the Duel one, Oracling Theology on t26 (2440bc) is amazing!

 

[Sun Tzu Wu]

Thanks cabert and neilmeister for the your explanations and kind words.

Sun Tzu Wu

I just read some stuff out of your huge domination victory with inca. I really never thought that this is possible on a huge map. Good work and it s fun to read it

 

[Seraiel]

Thx Which one did you read, actually all my games are Domination .

 

[waalTue]

I read your replay #1 Domination game. Not all of it thou. But as much to get sure, that it is really possible to get a domination win on a huge map... i managed to do it on small maps but... n1

 

[Seraiel]

TY! Domination on Huge is absolutely possible, Kovacsflo achieved it 1k years earlier then me, though, with all the tipps I got from WastinTime and Tachywaxon till now, I might give his game a try at some time

If I just think about that I chose Hannibal and others of his kind as opponents in Replay #1...

So glad to see the HOF for Civ IV is still going strong. Didn't have many submissions, but was planning on getting in on Civ V, but have been pretty disappointed and waiting for expansion so it looks like I'm going to be going for broke on IV! Yay!
