OK, Im up and ready for a little Kaiser experience. Lets roll!
Turn 0.
Settler is waiting, so I have to decide on our social policies next. We are going for domination, we are furious, really furious so Honor is our way to go. Patronage is great, but well get into Medieval Era in 30-40 turns, no less. So let it be Honor all the way! It has two must-have policies for our case Military Tradition (double exp) and Professional Army (50% less cost for upgrades). We just have to upgrade units, and a lot of battles are ahead, so without any delay I adopt Discipline (bonus for flanking) and Warrior Code (free GG).
We are close to our own GG, so our poor neighbors are about to be wiped out when Iron will be found, with two GGs and a lot of swordsmen, hopefully.
I moved the settler 1E to get a better position and welcome to Munich. Spent 50 gold and grabbed incense just in case Grand River expands too fast. I started Monument, cause Library is quite useless until a city has 8-10 citizens. Oh, and our military limit is no longer a problem, so Im going for some brutes.
Also I set production focus in Berlin to get Library faster and food focus in Munich and Hamburg just to speed thing up in future.
I spent 250 gold on Budapest and 500 on Tyre. We are now Allies! Hope for advanced units and good incense trade. Budapest also wants France (me too, actually), Tyre demands barbs eliminated (going to).
Didnt love sweet company of two brutes and scout near Florence, so wounded Brute was sent home for future upgrade.
Sold Askia our second marble for 300 gold.
Turn 1 (69, 1240 BC).
Open borders with China ended, what a pity! Renewed them. Hamburg and its sweet tooth citizens want sugar. Good luck with that.
Two brutes wiped out Barb archer and Barb encampment near Munich - +25 gold, but no Brutes.
Tyre no longer need any help, thats strange. Brutes still scouting, nothing of interest.
Turn 2 (70, 1200 BC).
Hamburg has grown, hooray!
Our workers are sneezing apparently, they have developed an allergy for incense. But Im a cruel Kaiser, so one poor fellow is sent to build another Plantation, this time near Munich right after he finished Hamburgs farm.
Oh, just noticed Budapest provides us gold, Tyre silver. They are so great!
Two brutes near Munich along with our General are sent to Munich and Berlin. Theyll be our main force when Iron is finished.
I guess Im about to find another two countries
Turn 3 (71, 1160 BC).
I was right, we found Orleans. We got major influence boost - Budapest citizens are happy to learn about fashion trends for this season.
We also found Helsinki. Its maritime and soon be useless its under attack from Japan. Well, Oda likes it rough, apparently.
And another discovery England. Hm, Lizzy loves archers.
Turn 4 (72, 1120 BC).
Ho-ho! Our lovely neighbours Wu and Hiawatha are not happy with each other the war is declared! Florence also wants Budapest eliminated for some reason (I guess, its just envy Budapest citizens are so fashionable now).
I checked China and Iroquois out they were happy to see me. The war between them is a perfect opportunity for us to grab Grand River, but I really dont want to attack without Swordsmen. Still, we are lucky they will cut each others armies big time.
Another worker finished his farm I bought incense tile near Hamburg and sent him there.
Turn 5 (73, 1080 BC).
OK, a lot of things happened between turns. Askia finished the Great Lighthouse, and Hanging Gardens were built somewhere. Budapest gifted us a warrior. Munich has 2 citizens now, and Helsinki seeks some help battling with Japan (and not getting any).
Askia is too cool to be alive, I guess he stole our Pyramids! I know hell be conquered eventually.
Found Barb encampment with Tyre worker returned it. It was too far from us anyway, and Tyre is much more happy now.
Scouting revealed Japan and Almaty (military CS)! Its our next best friend, Im sure. For now Im saving gold for upgrades, but three militaristic allies will be great.
Iron working will be ready next turn
Turn 6 (74, 1040 BC).
IW is ready! And we are Classy now. And we have Iron. Actually, get ready for crying out loud its The King loves Munich Day!. Check it out three iron mines!
Actually, our land are quite reach with iron Hiawatha has one tiny mine.
Worker near Munich stopped his plantation and went for iron in plains.
Picked up Archery to be reached next.
Turn 7 (75, 1000 BC).
We are the sixth most busiest people in the world. And we have all the AIs discovered.
And we are great, actually! Askia is our main competitor because of his WWs, and Lizzy sucks.
Berlin finished his library and starts build a Worker. I sent some brutes to sneak-peek on Wu and Hiawatha.
Turn 8 (76, 975 BC).
Oracle was built somewhere, and Ramesses entered Medieval Era. Hm, guess who built it. Incense deal with Iroquois ended sign another one with Askia.
Wu is in trouble, not good.
Turn 9 (77, 950 BC).
Archery is ready, not decided on what to research next. Scouting was not that interesting. Should stop, probably, its taking more time than I expected.
