This is the story of the Great Warrior Bob. One night he dreamt of the stars and wanted to travel to them, so he founded a city and built lots of things there to find out how to get to the stars.
The rules are pretty simple: Bob does not want any other military unit next to him, so he is only allowed to create workers. He must win by building a spaceship and surviving until it lands.
Bob likes a challenge and uses the following settings: Deity Difficulty, No Barbarians, Pangaea, Standard Speed and High Sea Levels.
Meet Bob and his city:
Obviously Bob has chosen a rather nice place to live. 2 riverside gems, corn and marble and lots of nice forested hills.
In his quest for knowledge Bob starts researching agriculture and training a worker to let the city grow. Bob is pretty social and starts wandering around the countryside to meet new people.
Our closest neigbour, he is a funny looking guy:
Bob also learns the secret of bronzeworking from some friendly villagers. We meet more interesting people:
Julius "Want some salad?" Caesar of Rome, Charlemagne the Burger King of Holy Rome, Huayna Cuapac of the Aztecs and Brennus "I like to kill people" of the Celts.
After a couple of turns the worker finishes and Bob erects a monument in his honor, the worker starts improving the land and research goes to animal husbandry/writing.
In 2720 BC Bob learns to write:
So Bob is pretty smart now. What should he do next?
