immortal 200ad

I haven't played in months but am running a few games. Should be able to beat the current record but probably not by much; these settings are really not great for the goal, we're playing a leader with no expansion bonuses, ai are aggressive/unit spammers, and archipelago is hard to...

here's something you can do lol

tried a bunch of different approaches but with no success, chariot rush, ha rush, 4-city construction, settling capital next to alex and choking with warriors/chariots. even tried founding Judaism just to see what would happen; my holy city's borders touched 1 of alex's tiles for 1 turn and he...

Pretty much everyone agrees the best unique units are Quecha/Immortal/War Chariot/Fast Worker/Praetorian/Conq, but I'm more curious how people would rank the rest of them. I'd maybe put the Hwatcha next cause Koreans are my fav civ :) Terrace is best building, after that in no particular order...

heh yeah they always want you to switch to environmentalism. I actually had to look up what it does and holy cow is it terrible. I can't possibly imagine a scenario where it'd be the best eco civic. In some cases you probably just straight up lose the game if your forced into that.

I've always wanted to try a huge marathon game like this cause I like playing with corps but then I decide against it cause I only play normal speed and I can't be bothered learning how marathon works lol, is it that much different from normal? Post edited to remove unclear wording as we have...

this whole discussion looks stupid because trying to compare different approaches on such a short timeframe is pointless. there's tradeoffs with different approaches but which one is better depends on how good of a position you'd be in if you played on to say 1AD. I could build only settlers and...

Submitted a game with a score of 379k, more than doubling the current record of 170k. Ended t157 with 358 pop. 400k probably possible if I had farmed over my cottages and milked Hanging Gardens even longer, but I was so afraid I would accidentally end the game too early so I built it ~10t before...

Trying out a custom mapscript... casual octuple food capital :)

Have you tried true alway-war? all ais are also at war with each other, should be easier than vanilla always war so you could start with that
