Chieftain to Monarch: Game Two

Congratulations on winning, and for persevering. :goodjob:

There are lots of good plans in here --
I am sort of partial to the tactic of planting a city
for the purposes of housing the assault artillery, e.g.,
Uskudar Usurper. One needs lots of combat settlers,
esp. if one plans to do more raze-n-replace.

Reflecting on combat ... I find that mine goes more slowly,
because I want to get the artillery in position first, and bombard.
Many of your battles included "The Pounding of xxxx"
before "The Battle of xxxx", but many did not.
What is your feeling? Did you find your losses without bombarding
to be significantly greater? Did you assess the defenders before
deciding whether or not to bombard?

Or am I just overthinking this ;) :D ??
