T201, 860AD:
Bremen completes the Pentagon. Five Cav Armies are enlarged to size 4 now, even the ones on the home continent. I can't forego the power of the Artemis Temple for quite some time, so can't get to Galleons any time soon. And with Caravels I can't ship even size-3 Armies, so I might as well upgrade them to size 4. The game will probably be over by the time I can afford to go past Education?!
While killing a Persian Knight that had counter-attacked in the interturn, we spawn a new MGL: Barbarossa II! But currently not enough Cavs close by to fill this Army.
Richthofen and Hengest defeat 4 more muskets in Persepolis, but the town still holds!
Horsa and Rommel defeat 3 Hoplites and take Corinth.
Ship two more Cavs over to the western continent and advance on Chalco, eliminating a crusader and the first pike.
T202, 870AD:
Barbarossa II is filled with 3 Cavs and then defeats the last remaining musket in Persepolis!
The Pyramids, Sun Tzu's and the Great Wall are ours!
In the north, we capture Herakleia and the Greek furs. Lux rate can be reduced from 60 to 40% now.
At Magadan, we spawn Richthofen II! Need to ship more units over, and then the offensive on the western continent can start in earnest as well...
The 1st Army captures Chalco.
The Lux rate needs to be increased to 50% again.
T203, 880AD:
Horsa and Rommel capture Delphi. Some Cavs and eHorsemen capture Pharsalos and spawn Hengest II! I'll probably don't fill this Army and ship it over to the other continent, as both Greece and Persia are pretty much finished now.
A few more Cavs capture Eritrea.
T204, 890AD:
Richthofen II takes the Babylonian town of Izibia. Top priority is now to connect the gems over there.
Zariqum is captured by the first Army.
During clean-up operations at Zariqum, Horsa II is spawned. We are definitely running out of units to fill all our Armies...
In Greece, Horsa captures Troy and Rommel Rhodes. The Greeks are down to their last town.
At the Persian front, we capture Sidon and Borasian:
T205, 900AD:
Pergamon is captured, Greece must have a settler on a boat.
In the west, Richthofen II captures Ixtapaluca and connects the gems! That was faster than expected. I can lower the lux rate to 30% now. It's about time, because the last two interturns I already did not have enough cash to upgrade all the horses and made already plans to build cavalry proper in some of the cities.
Horsa II and the first Army mop up some units and capture Teayo.
In Persia, Hengest takes Pasargardae and Richthofen Jinjan.
I need to rush a few galleys to find the best possible crossing for shipping my soon unemployed eastern army over to the other continent!
