Awesome turnset toug! :D One city down, lets keep on steamrolling! Wonderwise, since this war, it seems that only if we luck out we will get mids. however glib is still definitely available. It's been known that the AI tends not to research aesthetics for quite a while. Thus if we beeline it...

VICTORY! I have reentered the land of the internet! Shaw's cable man came today and hooked up the leads to my apartment. Anyway I am finally able to get updated. Probably a good thing, as it seems now we need all hands on deck. Haph is right though, if we're throwing everything into this, we...

Right I apologize... RL threw me a curveball with the lack of internet (I should have it fixed by the end of the weekend). So, here I am at starbucks again (goodbye $7 :( ) Check my last post for screenies and save. (finally, eh? :) ) Again, sorry for the wait.

Playing in a starbucks, with no internet (why does it cost money to use the internet here :mad: ). I took notes on my phone, which is by the way how I am getting this to you :) . Anyway, without further ado, I start! pillage road. goodbye TV. decide not to attack archer S of washington...

I can see that this will be an uphill battle, but we fight! I think my plan will be to destroy as many units and improvements (iron!) as I can with my axes. We probably are going to have to drag this one out, financing our economy with pillaging. We need to isolate Joao's cities, make sure he...

up! will comment further after i look at the save and get off of work.

Good analysis Haph. I suggest we use the "visible tile yields" button to find joao's iron (if he has it). Needless to say we need to get a pillaging party out asap. I agree about the land south of us, but it will require quite a time to become financially solvent enough to expand over all of...

I meant 1 spear and archer each, but we need lots of axes or a rax.

Well if we take lisbon joao is gassed. What's our opfor? I think something like 8 axes, spear and archer will be more than enough. I suppose construction (if possible) is a good thing to have. Cats are essential eventually, unless we strike fast. Thus, speed is key. We should be whipping as...

Excellent. I haven't missed my turnset! I got hit by a virus :cry:, so I formatted my HD. Sorry, no starting save unfortunately, but I fixed everything. Right. War it is then! I see no argument against crushing Joao/stealing his workers. That way we don't have to go for the stone city right...

Hey, don't be sorry! That's what I wanted. Just jozzing ya. :D Well, as for Jo's direction, I believe that starting placements are not usually in the jungle, thus a due easterly direction is the most logical place for him to come from. He could have beelined for us, but he met us pretty early...

Whoa. It seems I signed on some post whores. ;) :D Not that I wasn't looking for that :) When I get back from work I'll give this a rundown. One thing I must say, is thank god this is a SG. If I had played this regularly, I would've been whupped (mistakes already :P ). Mysticism + Sailing...

Archer after 3rd workboat, I would think. It would be better if we got those resources up and running first for whipping. I think gold city should come after stone city. there could be some other resource up there anyway, and that's probably the likeliest direction of AI expansion, vs south...

Turn 0 - The beautiful city of washington is founded in 4000BC, starts on a workboat. Warrior moves 1E. Research started on mining for chopping (BW comes in turn 26 btw) Turn 1 - nada. Turn 2 - So that's what we could have gotten. Pigs are found where the blue circle city site would have...

I'm running BtS v3.13. If necessary I'll download the update, but for now I'm going to play my turnset. Sailing IMHO is not really that important, 3 clam (4 food w/o lighthouse) tiles round the capital is more than enough, not to mention the rice. Good thinking on pottery though, I didn't even...
