Surviving Monarch Level
OK so here my situation:
English Civ. Monarch Level. 980AD.
Archy Map, 60% Water (allegedly!)
3rd Scorewise, 4th Power-wise (after all but taking out nearest enemy).
NO IRON!!!
Victory Conditions available:
Culture (no way), Space-race (best bet IMHO) and Diplo (possible)
Got 12 cities out of expansion phase (but 3 are on separate continent). Got 7 more of the Carthaginians and built 2 more in large gaps.
I've beaten monarch on all victory cons except culture (Regent) and this game started well but quickly faltered and then ground into neutral. Do I take my ancient era units into war against medieval or possibly gunpowder units or do I play nice and hope no-one notices I have spearman defending my cities (if they had Motorized Transportation I know I would be safe!)?
I know this game is winnable (even by me!). I'm just looking for a pointer or two in the right direction.
Ta!
