A tight fit (Prince level BtS SG, tiny, max. AI)

Not much to report.
Hired a engineer in Delhi to get the next GP in 1 turn and out pops an Engineer :cool: Sent him to Cuzco for the 'mids as that will be a very good GP farm or wonder city.
Got a great Prophet in Delhi who raced over to Cuzco and can build the shrine to Buddha next turn.
the army is camped near the Khmer border waiting for a few catapults to join the ranks before we can fight an efficient war.
Oh and we're 2 turns away from the Hanging Gardens in Cuzco.
There's lots of opportunities to stir things up between AIs, Suleiman is a prime example.
Good luck

My comp is functioning properly again after some delicate surgery. :badcomp:

I'll take my normal turn after Dwaarf, if that's cool with everybody.

Oh yeah? Let's see:

Well, that's something :D

Money, money, money, should be funny....

100 BC: Meet Hannibal.

Great Prophet creates the Mahabodhi.

75 BC: Hanging Gardens finished in Cuzco.

Civ4ScreenShot0032-1.jpg


Ragnar declares war against Mansa Musa.

50 BC: Sign Open Borders with Roosevelt. Whip catapult in Delhi & an axeman in Constantinople.

25 BC: Discover Aesthetics. Begin Currency. Zara of the Ethiopians declares war against Ragnar. I'm continuing building units to attack the Kmher.

1 AD: Great Engineer born in Cuzco. I begin building the Statue of Zeus and use the GE to rush it. This way any AI who declares war against us gets 100% war weariness. This is a great asset! Declare war against the Khmer.

Civ4ScreenShot0035-1.jpg


25 AD: In between turns, the Khmer attack our stack outside their city. We lose one axeman to their 2 axes and 1 spearman. Then Tokugawa declares
war against us and steals a worker on their border. I finished building a spy and start sending him towards the Japanese border to start some trouble. Statue of Zeus is finished. Catapults outside the Khmer city reduce theri defense to 30%.

50 AD: A small but effective Japanese stack reduces Constantinople to one injured axeman. I whip another axeman there and move 2 others into the city for protection.

75 AD: Hannibal declares war against Mansa Musa. Khmer capital is reduced to 0% defense. I will start the attack in 2 turns (moving 2 more swordsmen into position first). I trade Aesthetics to Ethiopia for Monarchy. I trade Metal Casting to Mansa Musa for Code of Laws.

100 AD: My spy is in position in the Japanese capital of Kobe but I don't have enough spy points to do anything to Japan! :smoke:

125 AD: I start attacking the Khmer capital. I use the cats first and wear down their defenders without losing any cats! The city is captured. The Khmer is destroyed. Start building a monument.

150 AD: Japan keeps throwing attackers at Constantinople with no real effect as I keep adding defenders there. I get a Great General and send him to Cuzco to be a specialist. Cuzco is producing the most hammers per turn of any of our cities, so lets make it a soldier producing city!

175 AD: Taoism founded in Djienne (Mansa Musa's capital) which makes Mansa's city the founder of Cunfusionism and Taoism. I start moving our units towards Japan, which happens to have a monster of a capital.

200 AD: Discover Currency. Begin Literature.

225 AD: Meet Joao II.

250 AD: Whip the monument in the formenr Khmer city ( I'm not even going to try to spell it. We should probably rename it). I use our forces moving towards Kyoto to destroy a rather large stack moving towards Bombay. Building the Parthenon in Delhi (in 9 turns) and the Colossus in Cuzco (in 4 turns).

The world as we know it:

That makes me up i believe.
I'll play today evening, cause i'm spending the day painting a wall...

So destroy japan, Build army to attack Mansa and Aksum?

I say Aksum because it's Culture is killing! if Yasodaphura ever wants to be a strong city, we need to get aksum. Mansa has the two shrines in his cities, 2 people are at war with him, And there at the other side of Mansa. Right now, Mansa has only 1 archer defending Djenne. I think this means an easy war for us.
 
Our stack is not too far from Mansa's border and he's clearly not going to be around much longer, so we should probably attack him first. With us having built the Statue of Zeus, Japan's war weariness should really be starting to have a negative impact on Kyoto. That city is loaded with resources (2 cows!!), so they should be the next target after we finish with Mansa.
 
kill Mansa, take Kyoto - that sounds just fine!


Your mission, should you choose to accept it.........
