Hmm, perhaps we should simply clear out the rest of the continent before focusing on the Americas. There's only England, China, and Japan left. Shouldn't take too long.
 
Definitely China first, Japan is weak and can wait.
Got it, probably tomorrow.
 
:lol: forgot about that. Playing as I type. Thanks :thumbsup:
 
Pre-Turns: Spent an irresponsible lot on rushing junks for us to get a fleet of caravels faster. Army is in good shape :thumbsup:
We could seriously use a palace jump, but we'd need a MGL for a good one, and we can't research. God I love this variant :lol:

we have a COLONY for IRON :rotfl: Iron: 11 extras :lol:
Give orders to all the CONS on ALL the continent. I intend to clear it off in my set.

T 1.
Take 4 chinese towns, autoraze one.

T 2.
9 to go in China

T 3.
2 MGL: armies of 2 CONS, no more no less (for boat transport before rome gets to research magnetism).
declare on England


T 4.
Take Nottingham and Hastings.
IT:

T 5.
2 chinese 1 english to go

T 6.
All techs and luxes to rome, in case he could be useful in any way.

T 7.

T 9.
Land in both Japan and America

T 10.
Japan holds the fort, America offers no resistance.

Pope Beorn the Feared dies at age 100, when he fainted after receiving the news that there was STILL a foreign city on his mother continent. He failed to secure it all. God have mercy on his poor soul.

Now guys, I think we'll need to work out an even tougher variant for some next time. This was too easy for Regent, it seems. We must try and find the ultimate variant that is crazy to play, even on Chieftain. That'll be something ;)

Inquisiting Roster:
- Beorn-eL-Feared VII
- Soul Warrior VII <- Up
- Chunky Kong VII <- On Deck
- IroquoisPlisken VI
- MadViking VI
 
well, no need for a specific log, so ill just log the major events.
like this one.
Kholpor is building KT? a pop 1 village? on the other side of the world?
i also rush some 2000g worth of temples and such.
make some settlers to colonize our new lands.
i plan to make this a rather peacefull builder set (exempt are the japs :devil: )

1- rome declares on the Iroquis. Oh, Joy.
Oil Springs is ours with no loss
but that japs offer stiff resistance. they get some breathing room till i rush some CONS.

2- Salamanca is ours.

3- Nagasaki is autorazed.
OUR LAND IS FREE OF FORIEGN INFLUENCES AND BLASPHAMIES

4- Niagra Falls is ours.

5- some aztecs show up from the yanks lands.
sign a RoP with abe.

6- Cattrugas is ours and prompty renamed to Con's Soul.
so is Tonawande.
Muach Chunk is, again, ours. renamed as Munchies Delight
got rid of the greenbacks.

7- appears i was wrong. 3 tomahawk guys and a few clubbers come out of the mist and retake Oil Springs.
it is promptly retaken.

8- ROME gets the SISTINE CHAPEL. very fitting.
i build Badass.
i build Souls Canal in scandinavia.

9- build Finger of God.
St Regis is ours.

10- Iroquis and Rome sign peace. redeclare.
Build Sand Trap in africa.
Build Jaen in N America.
Take Tamuin.
Centralia is autorazed and gives birth to Soul' in da Jailhouse.

i take an extra turn to even it out.

11- Build Palma de Chicago.

i took care of a few Aztecs, so none should be coming too soon from the American borders.
i have a musket in japan. i didnt see any action yet, and can be disbanded.
a few units are on goto orders (mainly cons to japan area or toward boat area.
that leader i got is on the north of america. make one more army?
we have a redlined army resting.

spent zillions of $ on temples (like 4500g in my set) do it. it will shorten the game and its not that we need the money...
 
Inquisiting Roster:
- Beorn-eL-Feared VII
- Soul Warrior VII <- just spend a cofferload of cash on temples
- Chunky Kong VII <- are you there? or UP <---------------------------
- IroquoisPlisken VI <- alternate UP, if chunky doesnt post a GOT it in 12 hours
- MadViking VI

lets finish this already, ok?
 
Couldn't have said it better, for the roster.

Indeed. Not that we're all too used to hearing from him ;) Nice guy, just a bit silent :p

I'll revert back to the old roster when he's shown activity. For now IP up MV on deck
 
Pre-turn – Unload 3 conqs by New York…oh, I was thinking we were at war with America…Rush a lib in Jamaica.

IBT – An Aztec MDI kills one of the conqs I landed by New York…oops.

1210 (1) – Hmm, what to do with this leader. Army or Pentagon? Well, the Pentagon will only take 4 more turns in Madrid, but so will an army…I’d rather have another army now than an extra slot in our 5 armies, though. An army it is. Load Soul in da Jailhouse and a vet conq into it.

Lose a conq capturing Teayo. Capture Texcoco, but redline two other armies…and leave a redlined conq out in the open to die…

Lose 4 conqs killing one stubborn spear in Tokyo.

IBT – Rome declares on the Aztecs and begin work on Leo’s. They then lose Vitcos (next to Jamaica). They may be able to take it back next turn. There’s just a wounded sword in the city, but the Romans have just a longbow to attack with.
The resistances in Texcoco and Tokyo end.

1220 (2) – Take 1 loss capturing Kyoto. Found Teruel. On second thought, I think I’d rather have another army than the Pentagon.

IBT – Aztecs ask for peace. :lol: Lose 2 conqs to Aztec counterattacks. Romans recapture Vitcos. :clap:
Rome declares on the Japanese.
America completes Knight’s Templar in New York. Good, that will be one of the first cities we capture.

1230 (3) – Capture Tula. Kill some Aztec and Japanese units and capture a Japanese worker.
Capture Teotihuacan, redlining 2 armies again. We’re facing pikes now, which are tough even for armies.
Rush some temples.

IBT – Iroquois beg for peace. No…actually, I don’t even know where they are. Ah, settler on a boat.
Resistances in Teotihuacan and Kyoto end.

1240 (4) – Capture Osaka without loss. Capture Cempoala without loss. It’s on the tip of the Alaskan Peninsula…
The attack on Chalco doesn’t go well. The first conq is redlined but wins. The second dies redlining the LAST spear in the city. -_-

1250 (5) – Madrid finishes an army ->Pentagon. Bearish Magellan’s->conq.
Capture Edo, losing 3 conqs. That takes care of the Japanese main island. There’s still 2 1-tile islands and 2 other cities on an island in the Philippines.
Capture Tenochtitlan without redlining any armies! :D
Capture Xochicalco, losing 2 conqs, redlining 2, and getting 1 Elite.
Found Almeria ->spear.

I only played 5 turns because just these took nearly 2 hours. I don't know how SW lasted through 11 turns. :eek:

I suggest splitting the armies up now. Two head north to take out the remaining Aztec cities there, and the other two head south to finish off the Aztecs and Incans. Either that or concentrate on Abe.
There’s a caravel off the coast of Tonawanda with 2 conqs. They can take Chalco on the island to the north.
Oh, and remind me again how we plan on capturing those 1-tile island cities.
We’re at 47% land, so keep an eye on that.

There's an army in a caravel off the coast of Madrid. Also, why didn't Magellan's give another movement point to our caravels? :confused:

Pope Plisken VI died of stress. How many kings can you name that ruled for 50 years, constantly having to deal with wars?

let me refer you to this - barbslinger's rules of drinking and civing
i used about 30 swigs, a couple of Guzzles and a few "Sneak Attacks"
not that your allowed any of these yet, but youll grow into it one day...
trust me.
you will.

and back to business :confused:
i would keep some blocking troops in the south, finish Abe off, with everything we have then head south for the summer.
