DS3 - The secret war

I don't know where things stand right now but--


Please drop me from the rotation. Things are too hectic and it just takes me a long time to for my style of play.

@Gastric ReFlux : It is still not too tedious even if you go for micro-management. I didn't automate any worker during my turn anyway. If you still want to be dropped just post a message. :)
 
1295AD inherited turn: Establish embasies in America Zululand & Greece. Buy a worker from Greece. Send a bandit out to hire ;) a couple of babylonian workers
(I) Bayblon destroys Greece. Akkad attacked by bandits, one of our infrantry is promoted to elite while defending Akkad.
1300AD Finish railing all workable tiles at Thebes. Rail, rail, rail...
(I) Once again bandits attack Akkad. This time the GL Khufu appears to help in the defense.
1305AD Khufu builds a factory in Akkad. Rail, rail, rail...
Trade babylon AT for refining + 9 gpt + WM + 22 gold. Trade rome AT for Dyes (8th luxury [dance] ) + 51 gpt + WM + 13 gold.
1310AD Rail, rail, rail... We safely steal the secrets of steel and combustion from Babylon. Our bandits capture Shuruppak.
(I) discover radio begin researching flight.
1315AD trade refining to rome for furs + 72 gold (stopped sending 51 gpt + luxuries to rome) Rail, rail, rail...
1320AD Rail, rail, rail...
1325AD our bandit kills a bandit near babylon and the GL Mentuhotep appears. He builds a factory for us. We capture Lagash.
1330AD We capture Sippar. I cancel the MPP & RoP we had with China.
(I) We discover flight and start on Mass production. We build 28 airports.
1335AD Airlift of units to Babylon begins.
(I) Babs destroy the Zulu. Babs begin work on Hoovers.
1340AD We capture New York, Philly, Chicago, Zariqum & Shantung. Capturing those 5 cities costs us 7 bandits. Babylon is starting to defend with infantry, the time of cavalry & bandits is coming to an end.
(I) As our golden age ends we finish building Hoover dam.
1345AD We capture St. Louis and destroy the Americans. It costs the lives of 6 bandits but we capture Washinton (was size 12 defended by 1 infantry & 2 riflemen). Seatle is captured only costing 1 bandit.

This looks like a good time to resign the presidency.

I was going to land troops to wipe out the Chinese, but they have a worker mining the only free tile on their island :mad: so the transport is standing off the island.

Here it is: Secret War

:goodjob: JJ, with all 8 luxuries we are undefeatable. :D
I agree that Bandit is bad for Infantry. Either we build tons of them are prepare for high casualties or we need to wait for Smart Weapon which of course is still no where in sight. :p So, it looks like we need lots and lots of Bandits to go against Infantry. All we need to do is to collect about 20-30 Bandits in a stack before we do a Bandit rush for each city. I believe we can afford that as we already have lots of Factories at our home continent. ;)
 
DarkSheer: we might start to think about combat settlers.... Open war, pluni down cities, sacrifice a few unit to take a city, then sue for peace. Usually, the AIs fall for it.....



I will leave for a holiday tomorrow, back Monday evening in a week.


If you can simply push me back in the rooster until i come back I'd be obliged.
 
Right now there are only 3 civs besides ours still alive.
(1) China who dies when we can land on their island.
(2) Rome which is behind Babylon and us in tech.

Rome might be a good target for bandits for a few turns yet. I never sent a bandit down there to look.

(3) Babylon the strongest next to us. We could snipe at their smaller towns for awhile.

Also, we still have many bandits in sleeping in cities on our main continent so we can stand a few pyrric victories.

I think we can learn how to build tanks in 6 turns. We could probably average building 10 tanks per turn. Maybe we should just decalre war and kill-em :D
 
Well ill take a look at the game and see what i can do.
 
DS3 1345ad

(0)Scan over the empire. We are going to go with a quick tank build up and blitz tatics. Upgrading as many muskets to be transferred via airdrop over to bab territory. Upgraded 68 muskets for 4080gp. Adjusted all city production.

Reinforced 20 infantry to bab territory

(I)Motorized Transport-Ecology in 4 turns
Palace Expansion

(6)1375ad
I started airlifting all our tanks over to babylon territory. Also our first set of Battleship's have finially left Dry Dock, Soon we will have a might Navy.
Tientsin captured

(7)1380ad

.. to be continued.. i havent decided if im going to keep the build up going on tanks and infantry or keep doing bandit rushes .. or both as i am doing right now.
 
Due to a slight power surge (that even knocked out my APC backup) i lost almost a few of my turns. I had to replay 2 turns over because the powersurge corrupted the last autosave i had since i was inbetween turns when it crashed.

(12)1405ad
Preparing for the assault on Babylon.

(13)1410ad
well WTH... last time i was able to take Babylon. This time i Threw every bandit i had at it.. and They have 1 Infantry left standing with 2 FREAKING hit points.

(I)Synthetic Fibers-Rocketry in 4 turns.

(14)1415ad
(I)Palace expansion

(15)1420ad
(16)1425ad
Corinth captured and with it the finial luxury we needed. We now control all 8 luxuries.

(I)Palace expansion

(17)1430ad
(I)Rocketry-Computers in 4 turns

(18)1435ad
Babylon finialy captured. With Leo's intact.
Upgraded 35 tanks for 700gp

(I)Palace expansion

(19)1440ad
(20)1445ad
Boston, Tokyo Captured

All terraforming is completed on the core island. There are 2 banks of workers, 1 by Berlin the other by Thebes. All our tanks are over by Lagash. There is also a very nice reserve of combat settlers parked in Lagash as well as a GL. You can probably switch all the navy cities over to land based units now. We have plenty of warships to protect our coastline.

We control all 8 luxuries and Leonardo's Workshop. Computers in 2 turns (we are researching all techs in 4 turns atm) with +1141gpt. Make sure to starve/produce combat settlers in the newly conquered cities. First rush a worker then rush a settler, and just starve the city in the same turn. That way you can knock the pop down 3 points with only costing us 160gp. And we get a settler out of it. We should switch over to Monarchy soon. This Added military support cost is really bringing us down.

I have carved a nice little hole inside babylonian territory. You could just declare open war with them and finish them off rather quickly with our MA against infantry. And don't Forget to PROTECT OUR WORKERS in the bab territory. I lost quite a few in my first few turns.

Oh yeah almost forgot. I was using Washington as a base of operations for All Bandits not on guard duty. You will find a stack of them healing there.

DS3 1445AD
 
Hmmm...meldor is still busy with another 2 other SG, I wonder if Gastric ReFlux still wants to play.

Lets give Gastric another 24 hours and if by then he still don't respond I will take a turn (switch with Meldor ;) ).
