first. forgot to take pics. sorry. it's late. i'm tired. had a hard busy week. been playing 15 turns of civ for almost 2 hours. i'm tired.
@armstrong-forgot to raze that HC city.
@team-sorry for the losses.
Inherited turn.- feel circassin will likely be HC’s first target. In prep check defenses. Only 2 axes defending. Decide to move 1 gren from Toledo to circassin and promote to CG1.
Hatty. Since I have 4gren, 1 sam, 1 knight, and 2 cats avail to attack Memphis which is defended by 4 rifles (1 CG1, 1 CG2, others have combat promos) and 2 CR cats- I attack now since defenses are 0.00%
Decide to save cats, use 3 grens, lose 1 kill 2 rifles, due to odds will wait til next turn to finish off. Now only 2 rifles and 2 cats. Last gren is medic and has 77%. Better safe than sorry. Should fall next turn.
Also see multiple defenders in Tokyo and Kyoto. Since both are only one tile and free from attack until marines or combat 2 and amphibious, planning on using in attack force.
1. Cordoba gren>cav
Barc--- I have gren attack/kill pillaging knight, and return to then & fortify. Then second gren kill annoying cat. Hatty now off Osaka cont.
Attack Memphis. 3 grens, 1 knight, 1 sam kill 2 cats, 2 rifles, and 1 knight with no losses. Keep city. Moving galleon E back to cont.
Kyoto--- whip frigate. Plan to build work boat next to increase growth and whipping.
Have several galleons/frigates wait. Still no sign of attack force from HC. Good. Not ready.
2. Kyoto frigate> gren (to avoid loss of overflow hammers. will switch to work boat next turn)
Khoisan courthouse>gren----this was HC’s feeble attempt. 2 archers. Kill one but leave the other (don’t want to leave only one gren defending).
Have all Memphis attacking units wait in captured city to heal and lower cost of upkeep for a couple while healing.
Moving galleon E back to cont.
Have several galleons/frigates wait.
3. killed second archer before any pillaging. Galleons/frigates---same.
Kyoto> switch to work boat & whip.
Attack force cont to heal in Memphis.
Whip 2 unhappy in Osaka
Madrid at max happy and grow in 1 so whip it.
4. Osaka gren>cav
Madrid gren>gren
Circassin gren>cannon
Should be last turn of healing. Continue with galleons/frigates.
Fortify grens as defenders on Osaka cont.
5. some guy says we are 7th on the most cultured list. Bah!
Printing press>replaceable parts
Whip Kyoto
HC has 4 cavs and 2 rifles Cordoba
- upgrade spear to pike, axe to gren
- send shuffle units around
- 2 grens, pike, axe, chariot. Now defending (5 defending 6. may hold…
whip Salamanca for the over flow(done in 2 turns but with 2 frigates approaching will need replacement workboat)
toledo done in 2, whip for overflow (want to get some cavs)
couple gpt trades. Not much but will help.
trade stone to mao for 4 gpt
trade stone to bismark for 2 gpt.
Also want some assistance with HC + KK (and to keep ‘em busy). Monopoly will soon be gone so trade steel to bismark for war with HC + KK + 50 gold (all he had)+
6. GA in mardid
Salamanca gren>work boat
Toledo gren>cav
Cordoba held, but only have chariot to defend against 2 rifles and one cav. Couple grens on the way, but I fear it will fall.
7. in Toledo whip cav.
Gren lost to rifle at 78% odds.
HC razed Cordoba.
Some more shuffling…
Attack force will be in position in one turn (heliopolis)
8. HC razed el-armana.
Destroyed last HC unit (except the city) on Osaka cont.
The attack force will begin the siege of heliopolis next turn. Troops stationed on hill NW of city. I think we should get peace and recover after this city…
Hoping bismark will keep HC and KK busy…
9. Memphis revolt over>theatre (whipped)
Madrid gren>cav
Reshuffling on Osaka cont. preparing for possible second wave and capture of HC city on our cont.
Bombard helio to 33% from 60%
Whip Kyoto. This is a great whipping city… Thinking helio will fall in 2. if continue with hatty til gone Kyoto will have to supply the troops. This will be next players choice, along with option of rebuilding cities razed. It really helped our gpt situation while it lowered our score (population + land)
10. hatty retook Alexandria. No problem. We will retake in about 5. next turn helio will fall. Did some whipping on Osaka and Kyoto.
11. heliopolis is ours. Shuffling troops to retake Alexandria.
HC built city in place of el-armana. Use gren to kill one of 2 rifles defending. Will take city. Also, in 5 will have all HC cities on Osaka.
12. HC managed to kill a galleon in the ring. Okay, killed his frigate. Continued whipping and attacks preps.
13. now have couple 2 cannons, 1 cav, & 4 grens S of Alexandria. Will be retaken in 3 turns.
sending attack force S from helio to elephantine. We will now have one force going N and one going S in Egypt. KK has settled in area of Cordoba ruins. Will take soon. Razed one HC city and second will fall in 2-3 turns. He will then be gone from Osaka cont.
WW is starting to really kill us. Next player may want to switch to peace for a while to recuperate.
14. now in position for Alexandria.
Now in position for HC city on S of Osaka cont.
Mao and bismark are trying to settle Osaka cont.
More unit whipping…
Southern attack force in ring continue moving S. 2 turns from attack position of elephantine.
15. captured anyah…whatever from HC.
Bombarding Alexandria. Will retake within 2, I think…
KK’s taflis should fall in 2-3…
Elephantine should fall in 4-6.
Kyoto is set to be whipped next turn. It should be whipped
every other turn. It can maintain size 8 and be whipped every other turn. That’s a unit every 2 turns.
Maybe we should get peace after this and build west point and more troops. In 15-20 turns it’s possible to have hatty gone. Just pay the peace price to KK and HC so we can regroup. not sure how much longer we can handle the WW. both HC and KK are busy with bismark so they all 3 should be slowing on techs. HC is now off osaka cont. KK will be shortly.
Thebes is now on unit production (assuming since hatty's power is going up even with the direction of the war). if we don't stop it soon we will have a hard time of it.
Maybe peace with HC now and KK when he's gone again… you guys discuss.
Sorry, forgot to take snap shots.
