CG6 - Coalition Time

[jack merchant]

Whoa there, nice going ! I guess we won't get an industrial age war

It seems the other civs were weakened from the start by poor terrain (Aztecs, Celts), no resources (Greeks), early war (Russia, Babylon, Spain) and isolation (the others). That's why this game was a blowout instead of a serious challenge involving maintaining alliances through massive war weariness. Blame the map generator

Ahem ahem Who started that early alliance resulting in crippled AI? Yes, blame Aggie

I'm going to have fun. But again no chance to finish it

Yeah it's kind of cheap that we aren't even going to have to fight in a democracy.

I'm not sure. I left about 7 galleons parked off the SW coast for ya and several cavalry are on their way there. The arabs will be defending with spearman so I'm betting you could wipe em out with like 12 cavs. It might be possible to win in 10 turns, but T-Hawk will probably have to in the first half of his turn.

I don't know what happened, but I 'till can't see it.... Is it my computer? I also searched in the upload-file, but also there I couldn't find it...

Could you e-mail it (ageling@xs4all.nl)?

Thanks

 

[Shillen]

There seems to be a problem with my mail server right now. I'll try linking it one more time.

You can't see the link? Weird...Anyway, I guess we'll email it to ya if you tell us your address.

 

[Shillen]

Ok my mail server is working now. It's sent.

 

[Aggie]

I've got it! I'll play it tonight.

We conquered our continent and have a lot of Cavalry on the Arab/Viking mainland. The Arabs lost 3 cities already, but still domination wasn't triggered. This is the 3rd SG in which I wasn't allowed to finish it It should take 4 turns more at the most now.

A lot of units are on go-to: cavalry, ships, settlers... It was just too much work to keep up, considering te power we have compared to the rest.

Turn 1 (1060 AD) Russia has two cities left

Turn 2 (1070 AD) The Russians are gone. Who's next? Aaahhh Spain. Haha. I asked Spain to remove their forces or decalre war. Guess what their answer was... The Iroquois, Vikings and Carthage are joining us in the war.

Agedincum, Lagash, Zaragoza, Yakutsk captured.

IT: Spain managed to kill 1 (one) of our units.

Turn 3 (1080 AD) Lugudum, Asturias captured

Turn 4 (1090 AD) Vitoria, Santiago, Seville captured. Three ships with cavalry are going to pay Arabia a visit.

Turn 5 (1100 AD) Toledo, Pamplona captured

Turn 6 (1110 AD) Our Golden Age ends. Barcelona, Murcia falls. We declare war on the Arabs and the Iroquois, Vikings and Carthage are joining.

Turn 7 (1120 AD) War weariness kicks in. Medina captured.

Turn 8 (1130 AD) Valencia Santander and Madrid captured. Spain is dead.

Turn 9 (1140 AD) Narjan captured.

Turn 10 (1150 AD) Mecca captured.

1150 AD save

The map:

 

[T-hawk]

Alright, I've got it. Will finish off this bad boy and post the results for all to see.

 

[cgannon64]

*Bump*

T-Hawk, you're nearing the 48 hour mark. I know this one is almost done, but two finishes in a row would look good.

 

[Aggie]

cgannon, this one is almost done. I know it will be only 3, 4 turns more. I an imagine that T-Hawk isn't inspired by it.... I could finish the game if you want...

 

[T-hawk]

Yeah, Aggie's right.. I've loaded up the game about three times already and just don't have the inspiration to walk through a foregone conclusion Aggie or anyone else, feel free to take it to finish.

 

[cgannon64]

Consider this one open then.

 

[Shillen]

Ok, give it to Aggie since he whined so much about not getting to finish games.

 

[Aggie]

Hehe, I got it then
