Pfft, not every game on Prince will be winnable. I remember one game, where I was completely blocked off on a tiny penninsula, by Sitting Bull. I chopped and whipped out a big stack of like 20 axes as fast as I could, but I was up against Totem Pole Protective Archers and Dog Soldiers. Every...

Well, there are two main problems with it. First, when fighting in your own territory, you take very little war weariness. Second, the AI gets a MASSIVE boost to their resilience against War Weariness. They can suicide countless soldiers at the enemy without taking a scratch and still have...

There's not a person out there who will actually read through a log of an entire game, even a short one on a duel match. If you wanted to post some screenshots and actually describe what you did instead of just copy-paste a log, with as much unnecessary information as there is in there...

Great match, you did a good job on Deity, and even if you didn't win, the match was educational. I'm all for round 2!

You're pretty popular in the AP. Any chances of a Diplomatic Victory? I'd worry that Peter would have a good shot at ending that though. Space Race is out of the question on Deity, and it's too late to have a shot at Cultural. If you can't win by Diplomacy though, that will leave Conquest and...

Just read through this, good read. Grabbing Nationalism and Rifling seems pretty obvious; you already have a significant edge with Steel, so I'd go ahead and forgo economic techs for now. This is the time to build up an army and take one of these power blocs down. I'd get your Globe Theater...

Man, the south is UGLY! On monarch I think the AI starts with archers, so it is probably too late for an early rush, especially since to get copper we need to backfill some pretty fugly land. I figure we need to rush stonehenge, get out a settler, and take a risk and skip over some of the...

Honarary N00b says: YELLOW DOT. Gandhi + Stone = Classic Obsolete Start!

Hi Everyone! I'm afraid I will be hard-pressed to join this one, studying for ACADEC and all, but I had a lot of fun in the last one. Put me on the roster as an always skipped though, so I can at least feel like I'm playing. :p

:( No one seems interested in this one anymore, including me.

Ah, I'm busy anyways. School's back, I've got a competition to study for, and when I can play games I'm usually on Mass Effect.

So, is Justinian or Bismark our next Target? Who ever has the richest land shall be plundered next. Nice job Trynthlas:goodjob: you seem to have really improved, you beat the monarch challenge. Maybe the next game will be emperor? :lol:

KMad is probably the most flexible as she basically tries everything in the game, whether or not it will be succesful :lol: *giggle* I would call DaveMcW as the least flexible, as he seems to really really hate not cottages, Obsolete at least has more variety in his cities, if the same...

Who voted for bowman? A bowman rush on low dificulties is viable, and they keep you safe from enemy rushes.

Well Jaguars are very situational and weaker than they're counterparts. They are only useful if you have a lot of woods/jungle and no iron. Otherwise they are useless, Axemen w/out a melee bonus.
