Hey, that was a great set of turns. A 5:1 kill ratio. We have our sword army, Spain has two fewer cities. Not everything in AW goes your way. It is how we react to the adversity that determines whether we are successful or not.
We need a lot more cats. Probably should have one city concentrate on cats.
We need a lot more cats. Probably should have one city concentrate on cats.
0-50AD
Alles in ordnung. Heal up the army , get a few reinforcements at Barcelona, burn city...
English sword dies to elite sword. Elite sword killed by second Englander sword 1-1
German horseman hamstrung by sword 2-1
We learn Monarchy...and the people overthrow the government. Belay that order. I want to pull some workers out the population first.
Kill an English spear on the road to Istanbul 3-1
Kill a Spanish archer on the road to Istanbul 4-1
Kill a Spanish spear at Barcelona 5-1 Spanish spear kills elite sword. 5-2 Army kills spear 6-2.
Spanish bound sword kills Spanish archer 7-2
Colony guard kills English sword 8-2
90AD Koreans build Colussus
Horsemen kills Aztec horse threatening Incense colony. 9-2
110AD Barcelona falls 11-2 Horseman from Ivory colony kills English archer 12-2
English archer kills the wounded victor of Barcelona. 12-3 Then horseman kills Aztec horse 13-2
130AD City populations are down to 6. Overthrow the sultan. We draw 100 years of anarchy (5 turns) but at least no riots and no starvation. Start markets and forest chops everywhere.
150AD Another English archer gets slashed at the ivory colony. 14-2
I'll play out the anarchy.
170AD Horseman kills Numidian merc at wines colony and we collect two more slaves. 15-2
190AD Lose a spear at the Incense and a sword at the ivory. Kill the English sword at the ivory 16-4
Jaguar warrior shows up at Edrine. Killed by garrison sword 17-4. Sink the galley that delivered him.
190AD
Incense and ivory colonies overrun. 16-5 One horseman lost, one retreated.
Istanbul riots. Other two towns get clowns.
230AD
Now a Monarchy. No riots, no clowns. 0 luxury stipend. 0 research budget 87g in the treasury and still @-4gpt. Unit support costs are 31. Kill an Englishman and Suleiman reappears from the dead. 17-5
Lose an unguarded cat to a Spanish archer (misclick). And a spear dies at Erdrine to attacking NuMerc. 17-6
Erdrine has a momentary fit of pique due to loss of garrison.
250AD
Kill Spanish archer that stole cat. 18-6
Kill Aztec on iron mountain. 19-6
Move troops into postion at Oea.
The bad news is that there are four incoming and within reach of Edrine and only three garrison troops. (2 NuMercs and 2 German horseman and an Aztec archer hiding in the woods.)
Not only did the kill ratio slip but the baddies are in the homeland
Sulieman the Reserrected awaits an escort home. The jungle between the army and Edrine is infested with various nasties, mostly Spanish and Aztecs.
There is enough force at Oae (sp?) to take the town.
The forces in the south need to heal up a little then can just move down the coast taking out the English towns.
Sorry about the little mess at Edrine. The one thing going for us is the NuMerc may not attack, and the horses may retreat.

I don't know what wonders are available, but we should snag whatever we can with the leader as a denial move. Is the Pyramids available still? HG is obviously available. Great Wall?

nameless one
Only The Hanging Gardens and The Heroic Epic. Both are good, I would prefer the Epic though.
Sir Bugsy
Civ.D.
I'd go for the Epic also. We should get enough leaders then to snag most wonders and deny them to the AI.
I agree. we got very many wonders in last game, and when we can only have one army, a wonder is a very good use of a leader.
And not only do they act as denial moves, but we also profit from them, like the HG is a very good wonder to have, as we'll get happy people > less luxtax needed. And stuff like that.

German horse attacks, takes 2 hp off spearin in Edrine, bu retreats. Archer, spear move up. German horse pillages. another horse appears

In 4 turns, Bursa will expand, and we will have a horse in our territory, for we dont have one now.

2 hp horse kills 1 hp horse outside Edrine

Edrine spear-sword
Bursa cat-spear
280: I decide to excort our leader back to Edrine with our army, and let 3 swords hold the cats south. A galley trip I feel would be too risky with enemy galleys around.
Sword loses to 2 hp archer
Instead of raising the tax rate for rioting Istanbul, I hire a clown, as I take the spear out onto our iron which would have been pillaged next turn
IBT: Much enemy troops movement
290: Kill 1hp spear with *elite sword
Gr, elite sword barely loses to reg spear
At least due to these losses we are at 0gpt at 90% tax and 10% lux
IBT: Flawlessly defeat NuMed attacking Edrine
Now our capital is in danger with 1 horse and 2 spears outside it with a sword in it, a cat and a spear outside it
Istanbul sword-sword
300: Leader is now at Edrine. Edrine switches to spear to complete next time and switch to HE and rush it.

Bursa has 2 horses in radius of city now and 1 is connected
310: Rush HE
Sword kills archer on hill, -2hp
Sword army loses 7 hp taking out a reg spear on a forest. sword in army promoted and we capture a cat. Bad RNG, bad RNG....
IBT: Bad RNG. Lose sword army to sword, all 3 hp of it
Edrine HE-sword
Bursa spear-horse
Germans drop off horse north. It is ugly here...
320: Cats bomb Pamplona to no effect
Retreat workers. Will lose one IBT. Will incredilely bad RNG luck and very agressive, Istanbul may be attacked with 3 horses, with 3 defender, and a horse could win everytime, and raze/capture our capital. Unlikely, for I left out a worker as bait for time.
IBT: Horse captures worker and disbands. German archer moves on iron. Horse attacks spear and loses. Another horse attacks the 3 hp elite spear and flwlessly defeats it. Spear in Edrine barely defeats attacking archer
Istanbul sword-sword
330: Sigh, sword is defeated by 2 hp archer on iron, archer promotes
Elite horse finishes it up, -2hp
Elite* sword kills 2 hp spear in Pamplona and we raze the city
IBT: German horse retreats in attacking Istanbul. Watch as new units stream past Tenochitilan headed to us. Aztecs asks for peace for 3 workers. No thanks
Lose elite sword to horse
Learn monotheism and feudalism. Begin invention, but it doesnt really matter cause I cant raise or want to riase science.
Carthage start Art of War
340: Elite sword kills 1 hp horse. We have 2 swords, 5 cats, 2 workers down south
3 hp elite horse kills 1 hp horse
Kill 4 spears at Tenochtilian at the loss of 3 hp of a vet sword, 3 hp of an elite sword, 2 for one, and none for the other. Razxe the town, as Well as the Great Wall
IBT: More units move
350: Just bombard units with cats
I hope our rush with the HE pays off and we get a new leader soon due to the loss of our army

Monty still has six cities, were strong compared to them.
Bismark has 13 cities, were weak compared to their military.
Hannibal has ten cities, were weak to them also.
We havent a clue about Korea.
Our ability to self-research stinks.

Looks like well need to secure our homeland before we continue the crusader against the hated Spaniards.

5. 400 AD Begin a march into Aztec lands.

Dispatch two swords to escort the leader back to civilization.

After Action We are on the defensive right now, reacting to the AI. Edrine has been a focal point. The mountain south of Edrine could use a road as well as the two tiles marked with a red X. Those two tiles make a nice killing zone. The yellow arrows shows the path the AI has been taking. Once they run into the occupied mountain they head for the red Xs. Place some cats on Red Circle Mountain and turn the red Xs into killing zones.
Another popular spot for the AI to hang out has been Green Circle Mountain. A road would be a good thing to build there.
Ive traced out the paths the AI have been taking to get to Edrine (yellow arrows). You may want to consider forts at light blue circles to place cats on and get to the AI before they get to the city. We might also consider setting up a gauntlet for them to run like we had in ANK09.
Edrine can also use an aqueduct when you can spare the shields.
