Five Take On The World (Conquests, Deity)

[gozpel]

I sign up as starter, only because I am a sucker for starters

The real deal with diplo and such, the good players can take care of.

No armies? Erh, ok then.

 

[carlosMM]

no armies?

ouch!

how about no OFFENSIVE armies? I encounter quite scary AI armies from time to time.....

anyways, I'd love to join!

 

[Aggie]

@CarlosMM: The AI doesn't build amries in C3C However, I like to see you join our next attempt. But it depends on what the rest of the original team thinks.

 

[carlosMM]

eh, maybe it is the old patch I am using on my laptop, but I bombed to a kill a 2 musket 1 pike army yesterday.

but anyways, we'll give them a run for the money

Well LK68 watched our army die to a Greek army

 

[Aggie]

OK. So they build them appearently. But very rarely and they are very afraid to attack a human army with regular units.

The only exception is bombers. I watched pillaging armies get hit like crazy by bombers. I think they might even bomb them to death!

 

[carlosMM]

hehe, aggie, remember the armies we landed on foreign shores in AG1? how long they lived - or rather, how short?

I remember jack merchant made the best prediction by '1 turn or two' - being off an entire interturn


so, that's why I though defensive armiers are OK, but I'll go with whatever you and the others want!

 

[gozpel]

Armies are way too powerful, as are bombers and so are Sipahis.

Aggie, I think you should start a discussion thread, since you volunteered to create the game and I volunteered to start it

Another player is ok and/if/but carlos is hopefully on par for this kind of game, I agree if anyone else played with him successfully.

 

[Aggie]

I created a new thread: 5 vs the world part 2

CarlosMM has won a couple of deity level games before. He should do fine

 

[carlosMM]

aggie, you give me too much credit - these games were all PTW, not conquest.

I rock on Emp in C3C, and I do so on demi and deity under favorable circumstances, but I have a very hard time if all AIs have early contact and I can't out trade them

 

[Aggie]

Good enough for me Carlos! I have confidence in your warmongering skills and your trading abilities. These will especially count in this SG.

 

[carlosMM]

I'll stick to the former
