It looks like you need more workers. A lot more workers. But everything seems to be going well anyway, so why bother?

 

[Sparthage]

Yeah, I need workers. But most of Asia is worthless (thanks to Corruption) and I've already played enough for several more updates, so...

The jungle to the direct south of Entremont is covering valuable core grassland.

 

[Sparthage]

Well, it's not at the point where I am in playing.

It is one of the best, if not the best.

Thanks, guys.

Really? I didn't know that. Maybe I should change it to John Watson...

i think you should lol and i agree about that ganging up on smaller civs that attack you.. they should do it with big friends or expect to die.

Yeah, I was recently reading your Boers AoI story and this reminded me of this. Great job at kicking the British Empire's arse!

[Caseyboy97]

Can you post your most recent save please?

Thank you.

 

[Sparthage]

Cool! I gots a destroyer!

Yep. Destroyers in my story are going to be named after the posters in this thread by the order in which they posted (Hikaro Takayama had the first post and thus got the first Destroyer)

HE LIVES!

I wasn't aware that I was dead. Was I a Zombie poster or something?

Can you post your most recent save please?

Ah, my most recent save is a couple of updates ahead of us right now, so no. I have one for each of the updates and some in between, so is there a particular save that you want?

 

[Caseyboy97]

A fairly recent update would be fine.

 

[Caseyboy97]

Most recent update would be fine.

Thank you in advanced.

 

[GamezRule]

I was referring to the fact that Hikaro is back.

The Battle of Tarsus Valley, fought just outside of Tarsus was perhaps one of the strangest battles in Celtic history. Facing a force of one thousand spearmen, the 5th Armored Division, despite being not at full strength, attacked the Hittite defenders. During the battle, the 5th Armored lost some 40 Tanks and their crews. There is much speculation as to how this happened as the official battle report (in the below spoiler) seems to be an impossibility.

Spoiler :

To: The Supreme Celtic Military Headquarters at the Pentagon in Lugdunum, Central African Province
From: General MacDonnell of the 5th Armored Division, 1st Armored Group

Forces Involved:
Royal Celtic Army-
81 C-21 Tanks and their Crews (5th Armored Division)

Imperial Hittite Armed Forces-
Approximately 1,000 Spearmen (21st Hittite Infantry Division)

Summary of Battle:
The 5th Armored Division drove out from its camp at dawn. At 11:32 AM PST they engaged the Hittite force at the bottom of the Tarsan Hills. The battle began splendidly with the rout of several Hittite companies. According to my reliable sources, the Hittites who were engaging the 3rd Armored Company allowed the tanks to drive into their midst, then jumped on top of the moving tanks and began to somehow open the hatch. Once they killed the crew inside, they would destroy the tank with concealed explosives. As to why they did not simply turn the captured tanks on the other 3 Tank Companies in the 5th Armored, I do not know. Perhaps they did not know how to operate the machinery. Following the defeat of the 3rd Company, the Hittites used the same tactics successfully against the 5th Company as well. I am told that after the fall of the two companies, a certain Private John MacWatson was responsible for leading the 4th Company to defeat the remaining Hittite soldiers. I’d like to recommend him for promotion. We then retreated to our camp and began repairs on our damaged tanks. We now await reinforcements.

Approximate Losses:
RCA-
23 Tanks and their Crews

IHAF-
The 21st Infantry Division

Spears are the ultimate anti-tank weapon!!!!!!

Also in the Bible, the ancient Iraelites destroy a civilization's chariots instead of stealing them because they didn't know how to use them.

Wait... spearmen with explosives??!?

Nicely Done Sparthage!

I always wondered wether or not spearmen carry concealed anti tank guns.

Thank you.

Yes, yes they are.

I’ve never read that before, where’s that story?

Wait... spearmen with explosives??!?

Yep.

I always wondered wether or not spearmen carry concealed anti tank guns.

Well, how else does the tank explode when it dies?

And finally: an interesting fact for you guys…

This story just recently hit 15,000 views. It took 358 Days to get to 10,000, but only 64 for the next 5,000. That’s pretty impressive.

@ Historybuff: A save will be posted later today (Probably in 2-3 Hours, but you know my inaccuracy with time-related issues ).

 

[Sparthage]

And here's the save. It's from before the Russian War started, but the results should be easy to duplicate as all you have to do is ask them to leave, then start killing their invading units.

Caseyboy97 asked for a save not me.(I don't have C3C )

The chariots story (if you want to read it) is Joshua 11:6-9, which actually doesn't say they weren't advanced enough to use them. My bible said they weren't
