CVH- Comeback of the Century (Axis of Evil)

Pre-turn. We got engineering.

1-2; 150-130 BC; Boring turns.

3; 110 BC; USA started building the Mausoleum in a size 2 town. :crazyeye:
.
4; 90 BC; Konigsburg: Swordman > Aquaduct. Frankfurt: Marketplace > Mausoleum.

5; 70 BC; Berlin: Marketplace > Harbour. A curragh has made it across an ocean to more coasts.

6; 50 BC; Hamburg: Aquaduct > Marketplace. England will talk, but i see no reason to sign peace yet.

7; 30 BC; Lack of action.

8; 10 BC; Berlin: Harbor > The Great Lighthouse. Thats where i am when...

I havent taken it or anything yet, i want to know what to do (since i havent played 5CC before)
 
Got it. Sistine would be a useful wonder.
 
Are we going to build Cathedrals in our cities?
----------

Nice job Aaron!:thumbsup: The way I do it in 5CC is take and abandon, but I heard rebuffing makes your citizens happier.
 
Sistine is cool. JS Bach's is even better. :) Personally, I've played so many games lately where I've done the beeline to Military Tradition, it'd be nice to go up the middle or the top. How does a beeline (more or less) to pick up the two science wonders -- Copernicus and Newton's? Very handy for a scientific civ, especially one limited to 5 cities. And building them in the same city rocks for research. We might even go for Magellan's, just for the heck of it. Why not, ya know?

Personally, I have my doubts about the usefulness of researching Feudalism. The AI always goes for it -- always. Monotheism might suit us better, tradewise. Dunno. Don't think we can time our prebuild (if the Mausoleum is really a pre-build) to get Sun Tzu's. And even if we could, don't we already have barracks in all our cities? On the other hand, at least we wouldn't have to pay maintenance on them any more. And then again, it's another wonder that it's better for us to have than the AI. And then again after that, it would serve us quite well when we do take over the world someday, at least on this continent. Yeah, let's see if we can't get Sun Tzu's!

I really am going Wonder-nutty, I think. :crazyeye:

BTW, azzaman's move to accept Nanking and then abandon it was totally :cool: And it fits in with loose 5CC, which is what I believe we're playing. It's gonna piss Mao off plenty, but who cares? Love it! :thumbsup:

EDIT: I don't think rebuffing makes your citizens happier, I think it just makes the AI who originally made the city happier with you. Improves their attitude, that is.

As far as I know, the current roster is:

Ansar the King - ON DECK
Own - one turn to Republic!
SimpleMonkey - educated our Republic
conquer_dude - built some culture instead of killing somebody
classical_hero - took us to the new age
azzaman333 - got handed Nanking and sent it to the recycling plant
TimBentley - UP!
CoolioVonHoolio - MIA??
 
I think MoM is better since it will help lower lux rate.:) While Sun Tzu's will only increase gpt by 5(in theory it will).:cool:

Wow, Ive never been this discussion-like about wonders AND on a SG?!:crazyeye:
 
Well, it is a monarch 5CC. I agree with SimpleMonkey's idea of researching the top (Sistine, Bach's, Copernicus, Newton's, possibly Shakespeare should be good enough). The AI can research feudalism, invention, and gunpowder.

I won't be able to play until Thursday, so I'll swap with Ansar.
 
preturn- check stuff, switch to Theology in 12 turns at +2gpt.

ibt- Russians build the Great Wall in Moscow.

70 AD- nothing.

ibt- England is building The Hanging Gardens. England is building the MoM. York finished the Hanging Gardens. Kyoto finished the MoM.

90 AD- Frankfurt switches to The Great Library in 22.

ibt- Americans are building the Temple of Artemis(ToA).

110 AD- nada.

ibt- Konisberg finishes aqueduct, start courthouse.

130 AD- going to go for a suicide curragh run in 3 turns.

ibt- :eek: Chinese and Americans are at war, a american archer captured 2 chinese slaves.:evil:

150 AD- Boring turns, so decide to make embassies in Washington for 28 gold.

ibt- The People Love You and want to expand the palace.:)

170 AD- nothing special, just more workers.

ibt- fortified american archer kills one chinese warrior and another chinese warrior finishes off the archer, but an american warrior kills the chinese warrior.

190 AD- suicide runs begin.

ibt- American warrior survives attack from chinese archer. American warrior + american swordsman advance towards Chinese tundra villages.

210 AD- curragh survives and spots coast, lets hope the germans were good sailors.

ibt- a french galley is seen but sails past. not sure if contact was done. Chinese archer appears out of the mountains but on the same ibt China and America make peace.:(

230 AD- No contact, and curragh sank!:cry:

ibt- units fortify where they were. England is building The Great Lighthouse.

250 AD- Leipzig marketplace -> courthouse. Hamburg marketplace -> courthouse.

Summary: Well, it was pretty interesting seeing the Americans and Chinese fight, but overall, no offense, but the turns were pretty boring, I guess once we get to Motorised Transportation, it will begin the fun:evil: :devil:. Next player can hopefully bear with whatever comes.:p

the save
 
I think we must soon attack the Americans and just get rid of Miami and Houston, maybe a couple of others, and then declare peace.
 
Yeah...I forgot to mention that...:blush: I didnt think it would be that important(the gems). and the embassy pic shows that is Mao's only iron.:)
