Even with this hyper pace, I suspect I still have at least one more round.
I suspect domination needs at least another 8 dead civs.

She loses three Askari and a Cav at Avaris.
She loses a Flamethrower in the open to our Inf
She loses a Cav before killing a Garrison Inf near Avaris

Carthage bombs our shores but doesn't give us any other action.
 
WOW - I didn't think the game was that close to ending. :)

I was happy reading the early report just to see more dead civs.

Over 100K cash left at the end. :crazyeyes:

Can we get the final save?

Are people up for the xenophobic game for LK155?
Getting our GA will be a lot trickier as we can't capture any wonders.
Our city base will be small, but I hope all those extra workers from razing will make them far more improved that most civs.

ROSTER for LK155, xenophobic:
LKendter (confirmed)
Greebley
Jersey Joe
Elephantium
Northern Pike
 
Here's my last save.

I'm also interested in the Xeno-game.

For this game, it really snowballed in the last few turns. Combat settlers + Hotchkisses are a knockout combo. I think the game would have ended before my set if Hotchkisses still had the 3-tile move.

I could have ended it a turn or two faster if I'd declared war on Turkey or Arabia; Egypt was a much harder opponent to fight, with their hordes of Askari.

Congratulations Tusker! Glad to see you stomped out the Canadians on the way to Victory. :D

I want to give you a :goodjob: but that emoticon seems to be missing from the new forum.
