I usually opt for #2 or #3 My issue with #1 is that it always feels wrong to produce units during that time, it just doesn't fit my game. During that time frame I usually want to setup my economy, trade techs and control the game. Starting a war during that time just feels like a bad option...

@MilesBeyond:

@MilesBeyond So what do you recon you did wrong? What could you have done differently? When you compare your game to others around 1000bc, 0ad, 1000ad what are the biggest differences? How is your status in the game when it comes to research/cities/tech and diplomacy in those different...

@landy: seems like an okay plan :) Closing in on the 1AD marker, you should probably decide on what to do next. Expand in peace (with help of currency) or attack someone. Also, your capitol seems kind of weak from an economy point of view. You should probably help improve cottages by letting...

@Landy: I think your city placement is pretty good. Not that I know a lot of stuff but I can give you my feedback on what I did different and why.

Did this quick on emperor K-Mod (pretty fun mod btw, AI is very different compared to normal). Domination win 1735AD

Would love to see you do a Let's play of this one, has potential and might be as interesting as that Gingis game you did ;)

Domination 1886AD

900BC and wow, cool map :) Wouldn't mind some feedback and tips on how to continue... Land: Relations: [/SPOILER]

After winning easily on Immortal a couple of times now I think this will be a fun exercise and give me a lot of headache :) I'll be happy to run head first into this potential brick wall^^

Well, considering that this game is a lot about shifting focus and knowing when to do stuff and when to not do stuff, I would say that you really can't learn anything without trying stuff out. Also when it comes to game difficulties, you are kinda forced to change your tactics/how to play...

For an easy early domination victory on normal speed normal sized map on some "not to high" difficulty level with a decent map that allows for capitol to contain many cottages (9+). -) Settle 4-6 cities and tech yourself to currency through math or alphabet (this allows you to keep...

Finally got around to finish this game that has been lying around for a couple of weeks. Immortal - Domination 1670AD Expanded to 5 cities and teched my way peacefully to Currency. India was pulling away both in techs and cities and I realized around 400 BC that he didn't have access to any...

The only traits I really enjoy when I have and that changes my play style is spiritual and creative. Spiritual for insta-shifts into CS for a couple of turns for GP-productio and creative to never have to think about whether to settle with food or special resources in first or second ring.

Bah, managed to hit refresh button after writing a pretty long summary of my game. Here's the short version: Immortal | Domination 1880 AD | 100k score
