:doh:

I just realised that I'm up. sorry. Consider this my got it. I take it I've just to bring the :hammer: to everyone yeah?
 
Inherited turn – Don’t do much. We’ve got some armies quite stretched out and I’ll need to bring them back to make sure we don’t loose them.

IBT- India and Spain sign an alliance against Russia
India offer peace, say no
Russia and China make peace
China offer peace, say no

1580AD(1)

There are 8 French and 16 Babylonian units at various points on our borders. Do a quick check of Cantenbury and see there are only two English Rifle conscripts, attack with the wounded tank army and capture the city.

Notice a nuke called “Nuke Newcastle when able to take city” I think I should do as it says, but not this turn. As Andvruss said, it’s a bit of a mess here, need to stop for a second to confirm my position and suitably defend our position. Do we really need to nuke Newcastle? For 15 gold I had a wee look at the city and there are only a TOW and a Mech in the city and considering the amount of artillery we have, we could take it without using one of our precious nukes, I’d rather use it on the Behemoth size 23 city of Shuruppak. Bombard Newcastle with a few artillery and use what tanks I have to kill a Mech Inf and a TOW to capture the city, taking a bomber and a fighter with it.

Begin bombarding the units which are threatening our borders and take out the easy targets with tanks, gaining another leader. Take out 1 TOW, 2 Mech Inf and 1 Inf. Bombard the largest of the Bab stacks and rush a temple in Cherbourg to combat French culture.

Order the Nuke Sub “Russia” home, its damaged and it has no nukes in it. Pass a French naval stack, hopefully they didn’t see me.

I raise luxuries to combat WW, now at 40%

There are 5 Mech Inf in Amimes with 2 more and a Nuke on the way. I move 2 of them into position to take Marsailles next turn once I’ve nuked it.

With a Tank army and 2 tanks in Beascon I’ll wait till a nuke is produced and then advance on Tours.

The lack of coal is hurting us.

IBT- Persia offer peace. Say no. Is it me or does he look like Billy Connelly??
Japan and India sign a peace treaty :yawn:
France attack Beascon with bombers with no loss, the bombers are based from Tours, so that’s another reason to take the city. A lot of TOW movement, resulting in a tank lost.
Babylon move units towards Newcastle and they clash with Chinese forces in the north

1585AD(2)

Nuke Marsailles and kill the lone Infantry which were lucky enough to survive, to capture the city.

Nottingham is protected by an Inf and a TOW. Now that the army outside it is almost full health I attack and capture the city, gaining Sun Tzu’s Move in 2 Mech Inf to ensure that its not just a temporary capture.

Bombard the 5 Bab TOW outside Newcastle to red. Nothing says “Go away” like a artillery barrage. Bombard and kill 8 French TOW’s but no leader.

subnote- PHEW, my comp crashed as I was playing. Thank god for auto-recovery. Unfortunately I did have a leader, which I don’t have anymore :(

Loose a bomber to a French Jet.

Move a tank army and the 2 elite tanks from Beascon to within range of Tours. The bomb should be in range next turn.

Form another tank army with the leader and send it with another tank army which has healed towards London to take the English capital next turn.

IBT- Russia and France sign an alliance against America. French and Babylonian forces attack the units I used to attack the TOW’s earlier. A single Mech Inf is able to stand up against 3 TOW’s and another leader is born. Awesome.
The Bab TOW’s move away from Newcastle
Notice a Persian naval stack moving west.
Cherbourg flips :mad: there was a tank army in there. Sorry.

1585AD(3)
Samara riots cause of the war

Nuke and capture Tours with no loss. I didn’t even have to use the tank army.
Rush a temple in Amiens, Newcastle, Liverpool and Nottingham to combat flips.
Use the tank army I saved at Tours to recapture Cherbourg and rush an army with the leader I got to replace the one lost.
Take out the reatreating TOW’s at Newcastle
Kill 1 Flak, 1 Conscript Rifle, 3 Inf and a Guerilla to capture the English capital of London, along with The Great Library, Magellan’s and Copernicus :hammer:
Nuke Rouen, the city north of Cherbourg and use a tank army to bring the city under Korean command. It pleases me that we now have the Manhatten Project are under our command, somewhat poetic considering our goals.
I’m quite worried about the chance of flips here, need to reinforce with units and temples.
Sink the Persian transport with a sub out of Chonju.

IBT-
Babylon and France sign an alliance against England
India and Babylon sign an alliance against Spain.
Russia and England sign a peace treaty.

6 Babylonian TOW’s, 4 Marines and 2 Inf move on Newcastle.

1595AD(4)

Take out 2 French TOW’s with bombers.
Rush a library in Besacon

I’m moving troops towards France, they have 2 luxuries which would be nice. The main problem is connecting it up.

IBT-
England and America sign a peace treaty

1600AD(5)
Move a tank army and 11 tanks towards Lyon.

Bombard 8 TOW’s to prevent them causing problems later on.

================
Sorry about the choppy turns, had a few girlfriend problems over the weekend. My plan was to take Lyons and then move south to eliminate the French completely before heading north again towards Babylon. I was rushing a lot of cultural improvements in the captured cities because I think the threat of flips is very real. The English are no threat militarily, and the Babs are only capable of building 1 movement units (or so it seems) so there is no “real” threat from there.

If I’ve screwed up somewhere then let me know, good luck to the next player. I also concur with Andvruss here, "its getting incredibly messy"

Personally, I'd quite like Conquest, its only 1600AD so we "should", have time to do it. and with nukes it should help some

I'd quite like to focus on one single nation to begin with, and hold the line against the others. During my turns I focussed on the French because they seemed to be the most trouble and also, they have a luxury which is relatively within reach. Also, taking out a nation means we only have 2 fronts to focus on, rather than three, which I think is contributing to the feeling of messiness we're experiencing. Also, it would eliminate the possibilities of flips which resulted in the loss of a whole tank army :(
 
So conquest of our contienent, and then complete nukage of the other as we assault it, taking only cities with wonders, luxes, and invasion ciities?
 
Oops.. I played the game a couple days ago, but have forgotten to upload the turns and save. Will get up asap.
 
1600AD, turn 0:
Take a long time to get caught up in all the wars..

I start with the each one first.. why havent we captured the former aztec captital yet (with coal and lux)? A damaged Infantery is ontop.. I assume the american frigates has bombed it.

4/4 ToW attack 2/4 jap infantery, kills it but redlines
4/4 MI kills 5/5 cav, goes to 2/4
4/4 MI kills 5/5 cav, drops to 2/4

the 5/5 stays there to protect the hurt units.

hmm.. no spy with japan yet.. try to plant, but get caught

back to home lands..

kill off some redlined ToW with elite infantery

find some unmoved atrillery and redline more enemy units

after some searching I manage to find a slave that can be aborted in clearing nuclear waste, and make a colony on our gems so dont have to wait multiple turns for culture expansion.

can lower lux to 40%

have all types of luxes that is available on home continent connected now, just need to capture york for J.S. Bach and smiths, plus paris for US.
Old aztec lands will be high priority after york is captured (ofcourse they will go in parallell), since it has 2 luxes and coal.

send 3 armies after york.. really annying to not be able to reach it.. since its just defended by a flak, and have 2 of the best wonders :p

dont feel comfortable haveing an army sitting inside london.. it has too high fliprisk, so move army outside so can capture it if it flips

hmm.. lots of cities have specialists but can work squares instead.. make sure you put citizens to work again after killing invading troops or clearing pollution.. also change a lot of clowns to taxmen or policemen

IBT:
kill a cav outside old aztec capital in defense.. lots of bombing happens.. mainly on our armies

1605AD, turn 1:

capture York defended by 3 flak, and we control smiths and JS Bach

nuke, then capture lyons (only a hurt infantery was left)

Capture Tenochtitlan, rush airport

find 2 slaves that was in automate and stop them

drop a nuke on shuruppak

bombard and redline a babylonian stack of 2 infantery, 4 marines, 8 tow.. plus several minor stacks
manage to gather enough troops to kill off the mentioned stack (most offensive units was too far away to attack due to lack of rails)

most of our workers are far away from our core clear nuclear waste in useless towns.. so start bringing them back towards core so they can clean the pollution there instead.. they will start making realroads outwards in a couple turns.

IBT:
japan ignores our newly captured town, and attack some american units instead..

A chinese cruiser pass right by our sub on way to china.. phew

Russia and england ally vs babylon (they should consentrade on me first I think..)

1610ad, turn 2:
ah.. america took out the french town on their continent, so now it will be easy to kill off the french..

since no atrillery in the area, I lob a 2nd nuke on avignon.. and the poor french workers who just cleared all the pollution :p
2 tank wins on hurt units, and I capture avignon

nuke ashur

capture castings with shakespare's and hanging gardens

capture and race warwick (was size 11 and no wonders and we need workers :p )

only 2 english cities left on main continent
6 french cities
11 babylonian
6 spanish
2 chinese

steal satelites from babylon

bombard and kill units and boats

IBT:
lots of japanese trash units move in towards old aztec capital, only one suicide this turn

England and china sign alliance vs india
russia and england sign alliance vs persia

america want sto talk.. lol.. they want us to give them industrialization for peace.. sorry, we havent nuked washington yet, so no deal..

york dispose of our rule.. lucklily I have no units in that city since it was so big flip risk, and an army standing next to it and waiting for flip

1615ad, turn 3:
nuke orleans
kill 2 damaged infantery and capture orleans

kill a flak and recapture york

1620AD, turn 4:
sink galley with nuclear sub

The chinese sees the effect of declaring war on the koreans... as Beijing becomes a nuclear wasteland

sink russian ironclad

throw another nuke at Eulbar.. nuke kills all units except a bomber... and tank kills that easy..

nuke oxford
capture oxford, then capture an infantery/settler pair.. and england has been driven off the home continent

bombard leeds till all units are redlined and it is down to size 6
get a great leader with the tank that kill last defender.. capture leeds

nuke elipsi.. capture elipsi

IBT:
about 20 japanese mdi and longbows suicide

orleans flip back to france :(

1625AD, turn 5:
found Chinje next to coal on japanese island

capture coventry
capture valencia
attempt to plant spy in japan again, and succeed this time
fail to plant spy in america

lots of units has movement points left if you want to do some more killing...

3 things will happen in the IBT:
1) golden age will end (I think)
2) dyes will come online
3) coal will become online

I would wait for coal and railroads next turn before we try to stretch out much more on home continent

I buildt 2 airfields sw of seoul so I could airlift more units to japan each turn.. we have a nice force there now so should be able to secure ivory soon.

a lot of artillery and 2 nukes is fortified next to seoul.. had nothing to bombard

we still need to nuke washington and banglore, thou china may kill off india before we can nuke them.. india is down to their capital and 2 size 1 towns

sorry guys, I'm going to have to ask for a skip here. I have a SQL coursework on Friday and I can't get onto my computer for any period of time. I tried to get time last night but I found out I'd set my tables up wrong.

Sorry :(
