Sir Bugsy
Civ.D.
Pre-flight - Cities look good. I dont touch them.
I bump science to 40% to get alphabet in 8 turns at -6gpt.
My only complaint is that we have the road between Beijing and Shanghai crossing the river twice.
The Ottomans are down to one city. I have one goal for these turns. Destroy the Ottomans. I dont want to face Sipahi. We also need to find Russia and eliminate the possibility of facing Cossacks.
Russia has three cities.
IBT Beijing: war=>war
1. 1475 BC March on the last Ottoman city.
IBT Two Ottoman warriors march out of their city.
Beijing: war=>worker
Canton: Warr=>temple
2. 1450 BC The last Ottoman city is Edrine. March to the hill NW.
Heres the situation:
Yes, thats a river between the city and our archers, so well have an extra turn.
IBT The Ottoman warriors move north.
Beijing: worker=>warrior
3. 1425 BC Move across the river.
IBT The two warriors attack our archer on the hill, he is redlined, kills both and promotes.
4. 1400 BC - @ Edrine Major Major is killed in the first attack, but Hawkeye and Yosarian carry the day and
One down six to go. Time to find Russia. Start hooking up the iron.
Dub a new warrior radar and send him out in search of Russia.
IBT Beijing: warrior=>warrior
The cave gets some new steps.
5. 1375 BC Heal up our archer force. Once theyre healed well march east in search of someone else to destroy.
6. 1350 BC Science comes down 10%.
IBT Iron is hooked up
Beijing: warrior=>sword
7. 1325 BC Get 25G from a barb camp. Upgrade a warrior. We run out of dirt in the east. Our archer force starts heading north.
IBT A Russian archer approaches Shanghai from the NW. Russia must be in that direction.
Shanghai: temple=>sword
8. 1300 BC Yes, theres a new Russia city to the NW. Dispatch our new swords and some archers in that direction. Science down another 10%.
IBT Two Russians now in sight. A French warrior comes into view.
Alphabet=>writing
9. 1275 BC Our budget is hurting. I go lone scientist on writing. Dispurse a barb camp before I meet Joan.
Intel from Joan: She has contact with the Mongols. She has furs hooked up and 35G. She has four cities, and is up four techs, pottery, writing, Myst and wheel.
First I buy Pottery for 28G. Then I buy wheel for 68G. I then try to demand Myst from her, but she is annoyed with us. You think youre annoyed now. She slaps my face and I tear her leather tunic off. She runs off screaming. Yes, were now at war with the lovely Joan.
We have two sources of horses.
IBT The French warrior attacks our elite archer and dies.
10. 1250 BC Overrun a barb camp for 25G. (This maybe the only way we stay solvent) Kill a barb south of Shanghai and our dude is redlined. Kill a Russian archer with our sword.
After Action There is a Russian warrior west of Shanghai, and a Russian archer in the fog to the north. I would send our eastern archer force north and see if we cant surprise someone (after theyre mostly healthy).
Time for a sword rush into Russia. Russia has horses but not iron.
We need to consider some ways to keep the AI from expanding into the former Ottoman lands. Im building a trans-Ottoman road. We will need some strategic roads towards Russia and France.
