Pre-turn
MM a bit. Is our goal to eliminate the Persian?

1. 1355AD
take Nuremburg

2. 1360AD
WW hits, actually, rather attack Sumer, the real big one. That far away land holds no value except for 2 lux for us.
raze Samara and Gordium and then make peace, they give us 108g and 25gpt

3. 1365AD
start to shift units towards Sumer front
New Samuha on Persian land founded

4. 1370AD
found New Yalburt on Persian Island

IT get pollution at Tarsus (not only once)

5. 1375AD
Sumer know RP, safe steal succeeds, we better get them now as long as they do not have too many inf. declare and attack Sumer, raze Aksh and raze Ur, hope that hurts (there were only rifles covering)

IT massive counters showing up, many knights, Cav, whatever else
think we should try anf get peace soon, we also need to up lux to 10%

6. 1380AD
try to eliminate as many units as possible, but need to heal a lot of Cavs

IT Ottoman and Byz sign MPP
mainly knights show up with inf, no more Cav's since the salt is in neutral territory due to city raze

7. 1385AD
to make them feel pain, attack and raze Sumer, another wonder is gone
pillager army disconnects iron

IT Sumer runs about a little aimless

8. 1390ADstill they do not want to talk, kill some more units

IT Sumer aimless running about

9. 1395ADSumer would talk, ok great, let's see what we can do first
raze Erech, the only town we can reach in one turn
go for peace, get Kuara (the island next to our mainland)
lower lux to 0%

10.1400AD
no new techs are know, watch our for our palace pre build, do not let it finish, can always swap to an army.
found 2 more cities in Sumer land to fill the gaps

I also checked the culture situation now,
Sumer at 40862 made 295cpt last turn
we are at 15381 at 217cpt
we got to watch out for that, one of the reasons why I raze their key cities, We might want to do more
we could also build lib, uni etc for culture reasons

Sumer land

I think AK's up
 
Recon: starting kulture is 6313. Steal Fascism and revolt :joke: Need furs, incense and spices.

Safe steal Corporation in 1405 from Sumeria. Change Tarsus to army wasting 50 shields.

In 1410, fail to steal Scientific Method from Sumeria. Safe steal espionage from Ottos. Sumeria building ToE in Nagsa (due in 11)

Fail again on steal from Sumeria in 1415.

1420 immediate steal fails and we're at war with the Ottos. Byz have MPP with the Ottos and declare on us.

In 1425, get Sci. Method on immediate steal from Sumeria. Take Brasa

1435 take Chalcedon and Germany joins the Ottos.

Sign RoP with Persia in 1440 to keep them honest. Take Kafa and incense that same year.

ToE finishes in Tarsus. Get AT and Elect. Start Hoover.

Found Hattusas 2 and Nerdville in 1445

Found Spice Grabber in 1450. Rush culture there.

Send some troops to the German front, theres an incursion to be dealt with. Need more garrison forces in the cities next to Sumeria to prevent flips. I was lazy with the MM so please check that.

A note: I will be out of town from Feb 14 to Feb 21. I have to give a presentation at TMS conference in San Fran, then go to Grand Forks for Regional College Bowl Competition. I personnally cannot think of anything better than going to Grand Forks, North Dakota In February, but what the hey.
Where is a brrr smiley when you need one?
Am I up here?
 
I signed up Sumeria against the Ottomans. Sumeria has taken or razed 3 of the Ottos core.
I committed no offensive against anyone.
The only Tech I got was Facism, which I got from Sumeria, along with gold for Atomic Theory.
I built a bunch of Stock Exchanges, The Hoover Dam and Wall Street, (Both in Tarsus) and started the Espianage center.
These played like builder turns, as I don't want to cripple anyone.
I upgraded a lot of older units, we now have very few Muskets, knights, or swords, unless they are elites.
I had around 15 elite wins, no leader.
I would let our alliance with Sumeria run out and then turn on them again, and raze some more of their core, as their culture is still going to be in danger of civwide.
Not much else, here is the save and a screenie.

IBT- A source of coal was exhausted.
6
Capture Berlin.
7
IBT- More WW. Lux to 20%.

Micromanage some. Jungle City founded. MM a bit more. Make peace with Germany. Did I mention micromanagement?
IBT- Osman drops off some troops at Salonika.
9
A SWORDSMAN generates an MGL :lol:
IBT- Byzantines and Sumeria sign peace. New Kanesh riots.
10
Make an army with the MGL and attack Riza. The full-health army is destroyed by a single Infantry, who has 2 health left IIRC. Zonguldak captured.

Alliance expires next turn. Have fun, rrau.


Oh, and thank you, everyone, for your patience, RL is getting crazy.
 
we should make peace with Ottoman, they are beaten enough. we have to watch Sumer instead who are still more than 50% ahead of us in culture. we may have another 100+ turns or so to get 20k.
we have almost 50% of territory, no need to expand anymore. just make sure we are stron enough at the fringes for attacks.
Sumer has those spices there. I would attack them and take out some cities, before making peace again.
we got so much cash, we can easily rush buildings if needed.
 
Not until the alliance expires.

Declare on Sumer next turn and burn their stuff (you're right, no need to expand anymore.) We can spend the cash, just save a few thousand for steals.
