Keep cramming towns in the north, head for military tradition and prepare an assault force to attack the germans. We need to build something up for them - it might be too late already for cavs, but we could have a good artillery war with them. In any case, they need to lose a few towns, and we need room to breathe and breed new temples and libs.

B02 750AD (pre-turn):
- 391G, +9gpt, Magnetism due in 3.
- Our army is pathetic: 8 workers, 4 warriors, 1 sword, 6 cav., 2 galleys, 3 MDI, 2 AC. We are rated weak vs. Germany, Korea, England & Arabia, rated avg. vs. Japan and strong vs. Iro.
- MM Houston to get duct faster (size 6), no other changes.
<IBT: Chicago duct => cannon.>
T1 760: Start shifting some workers farther south to improve hills around Atlanta.
<IBT: S. Fran. granary => rax.>
T2 770: zzz
<IBT: Magnetism => Steam Power; hit big picture, Germany know Nationalism, England knows Steam and Nationalism, so does Korea, but no deals are possible; Washington cav. => cav.; Delaware MP => library; we lose gems.>
T3 780: Trade Japan Banking for gems & 3G.
<IBT: Bismark demands TM and 38G I reluctantly agree since I dont think we can take them on right now; NYC cav. => cav.; English complete Newtons.>
T4 790: zzz
<IBT: Atlanta MP => musket.>
T5 800: zzz
<IBT: nada.>
T6 810: zzz
<IBT: Wash. cav. => cav.; Phil. rax. => musket.>
T7 820: zzz
<IBT: Krasnoyarsk duct => library.>
T8 830: zzz
<IBT: NYC cav. => cav.; S. Fran. rax. => musket; palace expands.>
T9 840: zzz
<IBT: Boston MP => cannon.>
T10 850: zzz
All in all a boring set of turns. Other than a few MM tweaks along the way, not much going on. Basically I wanted to beef up our forces some more before we take on Germany. Teddy Roosevelt said Speak softly and carry a big stick. Well, we dont seem to have any stinking sticks here positively un-American! Hopefully I didnt depart from the variant too much when I caved in to Bismark, but it seemed unwise to take him on with such a long and lightly-defended border. The AI loves to dogpile on weaklings like ourselves.

preturn, not much. seems just the way i like it. i even keep the builds
IBT arabs want to trade WM 4 WM+90g. no go. but i do find they are up music, demo, econ, nav and NATIONALISM.
we in it now.
1- WDC cav > cav, Atlanta musket > musket, Dealware lib > rax,
English are building the US.
change Kazan to harbour for growth.
2- sci kicks in, knocking a turn of steam. i also cut it to 10, still in 1, saving 218g.
i use that cash to rush that market in Yakutsk. its making 2 net shields???
3- steam is in, go electric in 16 @ 70% and +7gpt.
WE HAVE COAL!!!! start the railroads. (its just outside Yakutsk.
that was the good news. the ad news is that EVERYONE has it already!!.
Yakutsk market > worker,
4- NYC cav > bank,
Yaroslav riots? WTH??? hire a taxman.Chicago cannon > cannon, Houston aqua > cannon,
5- WDC cav > cav, Boston cannon > cannon, Delaware rax > cav,
6- Phili and Atlanta musket > musket, Seattle court > cannon,
7- nada, just railing and moving.
8- Yakutsk worker > granary,
up sci a notch to shave off a turn, losing 32gpt.
IBT - we get war happiness as Otto declares.
Dallas is taken. with the loss of a sword? still having blades VS cavs?
WDC cav > cav, San Fran musket > musket, StLouis aqua > cannon, Detroit aqua > walls,
stop here as i need to go out in 15 minutes and wont be able to do a proper job at waring.
the pic speaks for itself.
i have woken up most cavs.

Too bad he declared already, we're off timing a bit. I'm sure we can catch up from this, or at least get a fast peace until we have RP and artilleries.
Brother Bede's turn.
Brother Bede's turn.
We are in a world o'hurt, again....
No defense in the north, German cavalry all over the place.
Send the cav from Washington north, kill a couple of Germans. Plant some cav in St Pete,don't know if it will hold.
Reorganize the citiznery to pump the income. And sell some lux around for the same result.
And the Germans come right down our throat. Valdivostok, Cincinnati, Denver, and Baltimore are captured, Yakutsk burned and now every cavalryman I have is out of position.
Kazan, Memphis, Novosibirsk and Yaroslvl' are given to the Japanese.
In 950 Seattle is next to fall to Germany, then St Louis, and then every city remaining riots....
By 970 we are so done....
There is not much left.
And in 990 Korea and Japan sign an alliance against us. And Germany strikes the heartland.
And by 1020 we are exiled to the island and the Germans will take Tver for peace.
I think we have hit the wall, screwed the pooch, bought the farm....at least we have horses, no iron, no luxuries, not much money....

I guess Hitler was hiding behind Otto's bush and dictated him to victory. It was fun while it lasted; gg guys.

Wow, that last pic is amazing. They totally "blitzed" our undefended cities. Like I said in the other post, I think this was a very hard varient, but still shocked that they steamrolled us so fast.
Our core of cities never got up and running.
Maybe a new American variant?
Thanks for hosting the game, Beorn.

Good luck next time! 
Americans are, for me, the hardest nation.
It takes a great deal of patience and persistence. An AGRI nation on the same start would have built a really productive core by the early Middle Ages when tech costs start to hurt.
We could start again as the Celts, same map?
Or keep trying the Americans and you guys can teach this old dog some new tricks.
