Friendly, fun, noob to moderate level game!

Right, but the problem is Toku is closed border, so difficult to convert him. Rome is highly unlikely since they founded Conf. Best bet is Asoka, though it is relatively less effective, sinc eit is separated from Rome and Toku by a river-like lake.

By the way, I spent the first Missionary converting Washington.

Sorry for the confusion - I meant that we should spread our religion to Cyrus and Saladin first to help them convert. There isn't much we can do about the silly Conf people (at the moment) - spreading there should be a much lower priority (basically just so we can spy on their cities.

Yeah - saw that :goodjob:.
 
Hey guys,

I definitely have no problem with the 10 turns + or - thing. I mean, if you've got something good going on you just have to finish up, go for it. That's cool with me.

I took your guys' advice. You guys are doing awesome, and I'm enjoying watching the decisions you make.

Saladin approached us to cancel our deals with the Egyptians. I said ok because our relations with Saladin are MUCH better than with Hatty.

I added a Scientist to Paris to stop growth for a while because we didn't have enough happiness left. It allowed us to start working on a great person and also dropped out turns to Monarchy from 22 down to 14! :eek:

We finally have a decent economy going, but we need more. I built 3 Missionaries all heading through (or to) Washington to get to Saladin and beyond. Saladin discovered Christianity and converted but we can still get him to convert to Judaism if we convert enough of his cities.
 
Great, I see things are going well. Hmm... seems like the barb city refuses to grow. Let's see if ruff had better luck. (i just looked at the save, the barb city at SW of Paris had grown to 2, so perphas we should concentrate there first.

Good call on the scientist specialist. We needed that, with our low research rate.

Economy wise, we should keep it improving though. We need to get some cottages up and our economy should get stronger!

:)

After Turns
I moved our forces up to another barb city at the north, damn! As soon as I move my units in, the city drops from (2)->(1)!!! :mad: Hmmm, perhaps we need to back away for the barb city to grow?

By the way, swords man are lining up down to the south barb city. they have 50% defense, so we can't take it without substaining heavy damage. I suggest we wait until getting catapults before attempting.

The missionaries' ... er, well, mission, is on-going. I converted one more American city, and one Persian city. This missionary had tried unsuccessfully to covert Saladin, since he is running the OR civics. Its left the Arabs empire, and can now either head NW (convert Asoka) or SW (ccontinue converting Persians).


On the whole didn't do much, except to start a few cottages, link up Copper Town and Iron Town, and beef up our millitary.

Ruff is up next, then Colonel, and thereafter we go back to the origional roster.... I think :crazyeye:

The save:
 
Got it - will play tonight.

Hmmn - everyone has a religion now - we should really pollute America (lock him in) and then use religion as a $ generation (need a prophet!) and spy technique.

I cannot believe that Peter took away our training camp!

I want to hook up that marble I found (S) and then really kick out some wonders!

Another note: I accidentally "demanded" something from Washington instead of asking what he wants. I always do that. The two opposite choices are right next to each other and not easily distinguished from each other at first. Grrr . .. :mad:
 
A little missionary decoy - i suppose these games are about learning tricks and that is a good one! Guess you could also use a scout.

Re notes - I use paint's text option - the trick is getting one that you can read on the background.

Just looked at the save - our economy sucks - we need to get it going big time. Get cities geared up to generate commerce - water tiles, towns, gold, etc. We also need a GP Prophet to get the Jewish shrine - revenue!! - pls give paris a priest and start building WW that generate Prophet points. We are getting behind in tech. Finish spreading around our religion in our cities and then see what you can do to get things cheaper - change civs? Anything else we can try?

Edit: Oh, and tell that worker to stop playing with those silly sheep and get over to that marble - they will be in range next round!
 
Great set of turns, ruff and Colonel! And yes, that was a neat trick using the jewish missionary as bait.

Ruff, if we are following the original schedule, you are UP again :) So, its your job to gear up our economy, get towns up, jewish shrine etc. Make sure you hand me a civilization smeared with gold after your turnset :cooool: :lol:
 
Hmmn - ok, I have it. I will see what I can do re gold. Fancy - going on a rant :)gripe:) about what we have to do and I just end up talking to myself.

After Turns Notes

All in all a quiet set of 10 turns (I know how to count :lol:),
just chopping the forest outside copper town's big fat cross to rush the wonder,
and building some more infrastructure (forges and colosulem).

One thing to note is both Hatty and Washington wanted to trade us Feudalism for Theology + 500 gold.
I think 500 is too much, but they refuse it at 300.
SO no trade was done.
If the Colonel think that 500 gold is worth it,
please contact the relevant traders.

Demographs after my turnset
I further improved our commerce (catching up with Washington now),
Manufacturing is greatly improved with forges built.


I mis-click the archer near Est-whatever,
meant to fortify the archer at the city,
but miss click it and it moved one more step NE. :sad:


Washinton is settling desperately,
and watch out for the barbie (saw the red warning saying barb near Orleans,
but didn't seems to locate the barbie on screen):


Workers are building road seemingly to nowhere,
but actually I thought we could plant a city somewhere here,
I wanted start building a settler, but didn't get around to it.
Oh, and the worker at te forest is meant to chop it for rushing
the wonder at Copper Town (of-course, its up to next player)
