So, I've started the fall of rome conquest. Last time I played this conquest I got my tushy handed to me by every civ in the game attacking me. And although I had eliminated the Byzantines, being attacked by 8 Civs all at the same time takes it's toll. So, with 45 turns to go, I decided to quit and try again.
So, this time around I got a better start.....by noting which cities did well and which didn't, I relocated 3 cities on square, and totally relocated 2 cities to coastal regions instead of mountainous. All good so far. Now for my questions.........How long should I go before I attack one of the Romes? Last time I waited till turn 50 in a 150 turn game. As it took 55 turns to eliminate the Byzantines, I'm wondering if I should allow more time to eliminate my opponents, or should I wait longer till I'm more advanced with the hopes of taking them out quicker with better technology?
Second......If I attack one of the Romes, how do I get another Barbarian civ to join in with me. Last time I played this scenario, everyone attacked me. How do I convince my friends to become more......become allies and squash them Legionaries to dust!!!!!
