Actually, Bede -- it may sound crazy, but as long as the AI didn't raze the city, leaving it unguarded may have been better than leaving it with just one pike. The zerk is bound to win against a pike, and this way we were able to capture capture the city back with no major loss.
Also, I think with all the MDIs I was able to upgrade, we may have enough troops to tackle Hareid. Just needs to be bombarded a lot, cause those cats miss a ton. Ah, what I'd give for a C3C fire cat right now... Anyway, those cities on hills are gonna be a pain until we get cannons.

Possible. We already have accomplished one goal of this mission: we have Scandinavian dyes. With Ragnar only wanting to part with Theology for peace, I think we need to let him roast a bit more before we do any peace talks. Besides, I am confident that we can capture Hareid. However, do we want to capture it or burn it? There is a flip factor to consider, and Copenhagen right now is a danger is that regard. After Hagein, I know we'll be able to take out Stravanger; it is not on a hill and is smaller. If we think that the flip factor is small, then we should keep, but I think burning may be in order to secure our dyes -- we don't want to lose those. What do others think in this regard?
Starving usually suffices. The Vikings aren't that culturally strong.
I wanted to check, but I see no save. Did you post it ?

Haha, whoops. 
I'm at the library now, (supposedly) doing homework, but as soon as I get home that's the first thing I'll do. Sorry

Preturn-Looks good.
IT- Our ansar by Stockholm is killed by a zerk, but kills a zerk before dieing. Khurusan riots
1- Up Lux to 40%. Advance troops. Switch Damascus to FP due in 7.
IT- Get a palace expansion and some troops are build, and get this shocking message.
I fall out of my chair. Ottomans build bachs.
2- I see china is in the Industrial ages.
Road silks, advance troops on Haried, will attack next turn.
IT-China builds newtons. A zerk appears by Haried.
3- Bombard Hareid with pults, 1 out of 8 hit. Assult Hareid, kill 3 muskets, lose 5 MI and retreat 3 ansars. Take the city.
Kill zerk.
IT-America wants alliance vs vikings if we throw in 33 gpt. No way. Vikings drop off a zerk 2 tiles from Mecca. Our GA ends and our income is now 6gpt. Indians build smiths.
4-Kill the zerk with an ansar.
IT-Egypt are building Magellans, resistance ends in Copenhagen and Hareid.
5-advance 2 ansars and a MI on Kanasjok, It is defended only by spears.
IT-nada
6-Lose an ansar, kill 2 spears, take Karasjok. Movements
IT-A viking cav kills one of our ansars.
7-Advance 11 ansars on Stavanger, to try to take out the Viking horses.
IT-Renew gems deal with the Ottomans.
8-Vikings are collasping under war. They have 4 cities left. Move our ansars by Stravanger 1 NE. Spot Chinese troops. I am going to attack now to try to get the city. Kill 3 muskets and a cav, lose 4 ansars, our last ansar takes the city.
IT-Hareid revolts, taking almost all of our pults.![[pissed]](/images/smilies/pissed.gif "Pissed [pissed]")
9-Take Hareid back with an ansar. For a precaution of Stravanger revolting, I move our troops out of the city.
IT-Chinese take Trondheim FP is built. Baghdad riots, scroll ahead to prevent other rioting.
10-troops rest.
I believe that it is time soon to make peace. The vikings have 2 cities left. Remember that our ansars are still outside Stravenger incase of a flip. We need to catch up in tech as almost everyone is in the Industrial ages and we are still in the early middle ages. Who built the Great Library. We may have to try to take it.

Nice job. 
Man, the AI is researching & trading like mad. A pangaea map isn't very nice on deity... Well, how much can we get if we make peace now with Scandinavia? If we could get ourselves to near parity... I oubt that though, as they have been in war their trading has been bad.
I see China has cavs. No good. We need to somehow cripple the AI tech pace...

I am contemplating turning 180 degrees and sign the Vikings in on an alliances Vs the Chinese. Also try to get the rest of the world to turn on them.
What about that ?

I don't think that would be a good idea. The Chinese would tear thru us really fast, we have like no army.

The Great Library is in Washington DC. Which actually may be possible to get to... in a hundred turns. Spain is small and weak and We could probably pull in some other civs with an MA against America. The biggest problem would be supply lines and the fact that it's half the world away.
If we could get to Cavalry, I think we would be able to at least keep the Chinese at bay (with an MA or two). The problem is that geographically its either us or Egypt to have a good shot at advancing through China.
It's too bad China took that ivory. I was hoping we'd get to it.
good luck Rik. It's just too bad that the Great Library is so far away, otherwise it would be a good idea.
