Tried this one, made some bad decisions, didn't go so well. think i'll just try again sometime soon because i liked how it was going for the most part i just waited too long

Had a go at this one, don't recall ever using Catherine before, it was pretty good. Monarch, no huts/events Edit: Just noticed something funny, not sure I've ever seen it before but my capital had 1 unhappiness for "we yearn to join our motherland", WTH?

Quick update:

It might have been better to let him live and settle a few other cities and then go back and take those with catapults, (or just keep building NC and wait until each city hits pop 2, effectively chasing him around the continent like benny hill, lol) might have been cheaper/easier than all the...

Had another go (actually a couple of go's/goes?). I had a go at settling the desert hill with the corn and floodplains, I think it was a little too close...

Going to go for it this time, will post Turn 40 Mk. ii when I get a chance, getting a bit late here so probably best to choose bed over many more hours of civ as I have to get up in the morning.

Yeah that spot has plenty of food, you can't quite see it in that pic but the 2 northern flood plains are in gilgamesh's territory, not a huge deal I suppose, biggest issue I would have with that is it would take a fair while to connect with my capitol, not a big issue if i'm going catapults to...

I saw that spot, as a second city though I thought it was a bit far away, I was thinking city 3 there, yeah, i've more time to get there since the ai doesn't have 2 settlers from the off. I know very little (read: nothing) about taking on deity ai, unless it's a quechua rush, but then anyone can...

As in my current city 2? or the one beside the sheep that I'm planning? The city 2 in the picture is the one I'm unhappy with, I mean as a city it'll make me a decent amount of money in the future but it isn't a good choice when it's one of only 2, it seems to me like more of a fill in later...

Finally got a chance to throw a few more turns into this game, got distracted by life (and i have to admit watching Lain). Immediate thoughts on coming back to it are; I chose my second city site poorly, it strikes me more as a cottage what I can and leave it do its thing sort of spot since it...

Never done one before but seems interesting

I think I will actually take a break from it now, so one final update. Yeah, that's what I assumed, it was just really annoying, not just being DoW'd on but the fact that I was so weak at the time it would have been a massive but possibly manageable struggle to fight one of them off but 3...

That makes a lot of sense, I'll go construction and maybe try GLH later, I'll keep an eye out for when someone gets it at least, when it comes to wonders if I want them I generally just plough straight for them to the detriment of the rest of my empire. I was playing an emperor game once and I...
