Preturn: 1794 AD
Ok great turns by Struick..
got the population for dom, need ~15% more land.. ok!
Notice the east coast of the new lands got their nets nuked and omar or wtfever in the south is about to get his shredded too. np, easy to buy.
The military strengths are hilarious.
Lets Roll!
[1]1796 AD
So Entire IBT I see Wang swapping troops back and forth from Wonsan to Seoul as the troops pile up to take out the Zeus. half his troops will not have any fortified bonus thankfully.
In more entertaining news, Rammy's galleon leave polar crab nets alone and moves next to the plodding ironclad... free exp.
Also spot a Rammy frigate near krazy so El punk that too.have a screen for it but meh, imagine a yellow ship sinking.
Notice we have a great general indeed so move him towards Rostov to embed. 3x gg's + pentagon = 11 exp for ground troops so will nab that easily as imperial earns GG's like crazy.
[2]1798 AD
ok entertaining turn.
First a Toku Knight dashes for a Sid's Worker (was baiting him hehe) and so free exp for a rifle.
Then the real entertainment starts
Yeah dow to lose a town, What was France thinking?
Kurt and his buddies are poking around Toku's garrison in the north.
Forest grew on one of those NO IMPROVEMENT tiles!
So battle for Seoul as wang has sunk most of his troops in there... spy induces revolt then gets caught hah. In the arty go!
1st arty is CR2 so time to die mate. Less than 40% odds but scores major damage talking the lead rifle to 3.9 strength and collateral on 7 effing units, wow.
2nd Arty takes his rifle to 4.5 and 6x collateral, good deal.
3rd Arty is up against a Machine gun and well he barely gets dented taking that trash out.
4th arty is 98% odds so time to lower this crap to a fine paste. flawless.
5th flawless too and no more fun for the arty!!! boooo
Rifle one is henpecked from effing airships but eff it, he goes in glowing blue and powns the lead leftovers.
Exp an anti tank just to see the bazookas in action hehehe.
So endless flood of glowing blue rifles and anti tank swarm seoul and even Cao Cao the long bow gets some exp, going flawless for 25/26 exp.
We now own Broadway, the uber sistine and the broken statue of Zeus huzzah... And spy hut!!!!!!
Nice prize.
So looking at Wang's remaining two (real) towns and notice the loser doesn't have any more air ships... cool. 4.55 strength now, really messed him up taking out that stack.
Northern Troops are stalled a bit healing with no Super Medic hehe.
With Seoul out of the running for greatest town...
Turn off EP's on wang as we can investigate all of his remaining towns hehe.
[3]1800 AD
Walking wounded can heal the turn we bombard Wonsan... maybe. Onward!
Concentrating on railing up the new world btw.
Oh our air ship harasses a random rifle!
Wang will cap now but eff that.
[4]1802 AD
A surprising number of troops are converging on the Egyptian town of Heliopolis
WTH? Built another air ship for unknown reasons hehe.
[5]1804 AD
Bio comes in and Moscow is on fire!
Moscow grows in 2!
Silver says we must have Fascism for Rushmore and Liq agrees. 6 turns lazy like.
pop in a 17ish turn national park in Big Sur, will speed that up building a few lumber mills.
This is too funny..
Yeah pos nuke dot is AI approved... it's name is Voronezh or something. hmm spell check didn't geek on whatever I typed so that might just be the Correct name!
Ok so beating down walls in the north(Egypt) and south(Korea) like a good boy.
[6]1806 AD
Wang counter attacks our stack killing a rifle and beating down a arty bad hehe. whatever. Any damage done is healed next turn.
Egyptian revolt in that pos Korea town near Thebes... no idea how but well oh well hehe. 6 turns of no maint on the guy.
So lets see... Egypt first. 2% culture left so zing that away.
Arty in first, one dies, one takes serious damage, rest exp. all the defenders are ground beef so clean up is easy.
Nothing special about that town other than its spy hut!!! dial up a granary.
Our two southern stacks finally meet at Wonsan but only one has movement... hmm lets see, not enough units to take all that trash out this turn but lets see what damage we can do!
Lead off arty promotes CR one and beats 37% odds at half effing health!. good show.
Next has like 85% odds against an mg so it's just entertainment for cao cao coming up!
hmm no infantry so promote an anti tank combat two to take the lead defender AT gun. 83% odds and does the job np. the rest is beat but good.
Cao cao gets 2 exp from 95% odds for some reason so all good. he promotes Morale next turn.
I leave one beat up arty in the town because nothing left to garrison the town hehe.
Oh seems that fun netted us another gg. hmm must consult the silver oracle as to WTH to do with this guy and the GG coming from Fascism hehe. "Settle? lolz" yeah ok thanks silver. Going to settle it in Rostov for guilt free military spam.
[8]1808 AD
Hehe an Egyptian rifle comes out of nowhere and kills a Rifle in that rioting pos korean town, no breaks for this joint. I rail over two infantry to that town and bomb the rifle with a blimp for giggles.
Thebes must have come out of revolt, we just gained like +120 gold per turn and are suddenly making cash at 50% haha. Dial up a bank in 13 there as that and Wall street are the only cash buildings missing. Science to 0%, Going to buy that shizzle.
So time is up for Wonsan as a rifle walks in np.
Nice town with surviving infra and lots of mature cottages. will be productive the turn it comes out of revolt. Has a priest embedded.
Major arty are beat to hell So the wounded (plus a few rifles garrison and one of the medics) chill in Wonsan proper while the rest of the troops bear down on Nampo.
[9]1810 AD
What horrible luck hehe.
First Kurt has 99.2% odds and loses, then when I clean up, Bam: 4x uber protective aggressive rifles pop...
sigh, re-base the blimps at Big Sur hehe. Would take me the rest of the turn set to take those things out as they migrated east to poorly defended Meh Dot.
I call upon the Power of the Mighty Kremlin and buy both the Bank in Thebes and the National park in Big Sur to make up for all that BS. Another turn of 0% science to get some volcano money back.
[10]1812 AD
So all those uber rifles of Toku's ignore my troops and putter about.. right.. lets retreat and come back with a ton of infantry!
Ok so seems Wong managed to nab combustion from someone and just pulled a ship into Nampo to get upgraded to dessie... ERK!!!!! Best to take that pos town out before it gets back into open water hehe.
So 3 arty lower defense to 0% and 2 are up for suicide vs the icecube on the hill. They do a good job beating down the riles before dying.
So uh yeah ugly 30% odds and we win a few amazingly!
That's the event listing hehe.. most of those odds were horrible haha.
Nampo is a trash town but 3 workers are a rail team!
So time to say hi to Alexandria!
4x rifles a few cannon, VS. lots of angry arty! Not much around to actually like kill crap as there's only like 3 infantry and a knight or something silly.
ok yeah, left 3x 2.1 health rifles in there for next turn.
[11]1814 AD
So time is up for Alexandria..
Bored Arty just stack attack the riles + knight back to minimum hp and the infantry+ knight enjoy the free exp haha.
Has an embedded priest and almost no infra. Dial up a granary.
Have half the Wang stack run around though German lands to nail Memphis while the rest run East towards gold dot. Liq managed to send most of the arty north haha.
[12]1816 AD
Enough banks are done so Start a 29ish turn Wall street in Thebes.. right. Going to sink a few turns worth of hammers into that, then buying it.
Rest of the time is moving troops.
[13]1818 AD
Woot!
fascism in for the free GG.
I place medicine in in 9ish on account we need hospitals badly. I place a 3 turn Rushmore into Pete as WW is just Killing us in the towns missing jails.
Since we can use the roads in Germany, getting to Memphis is a breeze as the stack slides up and nukes it's defences all in the same turn.
[14]1820 AD
Whee
Time to really spam troops!
ok maybe time is up for Memphis, troops are pretty beat up so let us see!
first arty 60% odds and is almost flawless... really messing that stack up.
Ok well 99% odds on last arty so time to exp some troops.
LOL! Didn't notice that "killer" Egypt stack were mostly jew misses and workers haha.
Nothing like a bazooka one shotting a knight lol.
Town is nothing to write home about but 5x Rammy workers!
[15]1822 AD
Ok so By this point who cares if crap dies eh?
First up is Gold dot on a hill... ugly so kill 2 arty and get bad roll, killing one of our anti tank squads hehe.
5x wang workers and Dial a Granary.
So in the north I run out of crap to shoot at with the bored arty so the infantry clean up the last town of rammy's on the mainlands hehe. it's like target practice as the rifles just stand there shooting into whatever the arty left.
http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c379/liquidated/aCK-1/1822adPi-WTH.jpg
Natasha has the honors.
So Egypt will not give electricity + vassal so screw this, buy out some infantry at krazy and ship over some arty as I had a galleon follwing the stack all this time hehe. We gonna raze us some island town!
[16]1824 AD
A Wang Dessie comes and shreds Seoul's nets.. meh nothing we can do.
[17]1826 AD
Moving troops around and WW is getting ugly.. That Wang Dessie punks an ironclad near the deer town in the south.. wasn't even in the bfc haha.
[18]1828 AD
Hmm lone surviving arty lowers Wang off fishie dot town to 24% and an infantry has 60% odds .. lol ok well got the troops to kill off so here goes!!
First wins spawning yet another great general haha. Rostov is already spitting out 11 xp ground so embed it in Moscow for giggles.
Hehe next infantry is 30% odds so lets hold off. Will have fresh new arty from those yek towns to help soon.
[19]1830 AD
Ok! Times up for Giza!!! Arty first to take em down to 2.1 and the infantry are all over that.
lol! look, free exp!
Those partisans all die immediately.
Rammy won't give us electricity So I say eff chasing this fool down and just vassalize him. As far as I am concerned, if yearning becomes an issue, we can just buy the globe theatre in Thebes (the only Egyptian town that matters) and be done with the unhappy.
So notice we can investigate every effing town except a few in germany... push 290 eps a turn on Fred then and 95 on the rest that matter.
Oh and pop a new town for those floodz we missed between pete and nova.
Finally hunt down the last of the effing toku partisans. They ran all the way to effing meh dot via the woods haha!
[20]1832 AD
Effing monsoon kills the granary and forge in new novo. eff, why not a customs house or something.
So we get Medicine and well hehe 5 turn combustion as well because we are pushing just under 1300 beakers per turn while making good cash....
Liq spams MASS hospitals all over the place as half our towns are sick or at cap.
Ok lets see if I can raze pos dot and spawn Wang partisans.
Wounded arty takes out last 8% defences
First infantry is 60% and he wins for nice exp.
Second is 64% and nice exp as well.
Opps seems liq failed... never attacked with the arty hehe. ok now he does.
Now the CG1 infantry can take out the defensive Jumbo.
and an AT gun take the honors...
and of course razing that earned us partisans...except that I cannot seem to find any effing wang partisans.
Continent is now 100% Egypt and Korea free!
No techs from Korea so take peace with Korea plus one of his remaining 2 towns .. well WTH was liq thinking?
Actually it found the fish!!!! Pays for itself actually, kinda scary.
But liq is going to whore ONE(or three) MORE TURN(s) as it's time to abuse the Kremlin for wall street 23ish turns early.. yeah this should actually pay for itself haha.
[21]1834 AD
Wow just missed nailing wall street, hehe science back to 60% at 1321 beakers per turn. Lots of Wang town borders popped so likely new cottages getting worked.
Rostov is officially pushing out 11 exp ground troops btw haha. That's 3 promos out the gate so CR3 arty?
[22]1836 AD
And finally!
hehe Kremlin abuse. Almost pays for itself!
keep gaining beakers per turn. 1360 now hehe.
ok one more turn on account I want to see the damage wall street does.
[23]1838 AD
Sexah..
Leaving science at 50% as we are gaining 400ish gold a turn to recover from that wall street.
Oh and France made peace with Germany finally.
Ok so the game is won in 4% more land. I'd say just attack France on account they are French (not to mention seriously backwards hehe).
Two ways to go about this.. slog around with massed infantry+artillery like Liq and Struick have been doing all this time lolz OR lazily stall to grab tanks (needs Combustion Electricity and Industrialism) for lame overkill.
Whatever, we are effing 3.4 strength compared to France and we haven't even really TRIED to build up a military as it's bloody impossible for liq not to whore out infra like QVC hawking cheap knife sets. I count 32 rifles 46 infantry 11 antitank and 21 artillery just glancing at the Military Adviser.
IMO finish Combustion (spam a good number of dessies from the new world especially!) and kill off flight as Air Ports mean the new lands can help spit out land troops. In general, anything with insane mobility (dessies + planes) can be spammed with impunity from the new lands.
Might as well kill off a 6ish turn Red cross in Moscow btw as Rostov spits out endless 11 exp arty that can promote CR3 right out of the gate. Arty (and wishlist paratroopers) can pick up the free medic promo from red cross which are coming out of the gate at 7 exp. The beauty of free medic btw is that March is one promo away. March troops with a super medic in stack is just EVIL. Rest of the old world towns can hammer out whatever tickles your fancy as I made sure to spam rails everywhere I could. Rammy's land is devoid of rails as I just liberated that land.
Troops are scattered all over the place just getting done healing. Seems France has a few airships so sigh, more anti tanks until we can get flight in for fighter coverage haha.
Since Big Sur bought its national park, balance Lumber Mills with preserves. building wise, aim for useful slots to place specs hehe.
Could stand to kill off a 15ish turn rebuild/reformation set I guess considering the new lands were crippled by WW all this time haha. That and we could give a bloody eff about score. Whatever... Liq says just group up and bash France.
Cheers!
