That's amazing Stratuss! I didn't think the Soviet war machine had enough gas in the tank to keep going against Mao's forces, but you've proved me wrong in the best possible way!

this is a low difficulty and we are far behind in techs, especially Hatty
WW is very bad and we run 0% lux? increase lux to 20%
Chengdu is starving, whip theatre
after assessing the situation with 5 unhappy faces and our forces pretty depleted, go for peace
ok, lux back to 0% and now we need to medn the economy
MM our cities a little, we can go for national epic
stop, a worker that is building a farm on a lumbermill, our empire is a mess
wake 4 workers that did nothing
1. 1842AD
Moscow goes for ironworks
2. 1844AD
worker actions, increase to 80% science assembly line drops to 5 turns
whip theatre in starving Hangzhou
3. 1846AD
zzz
4. 1848AD
reconnect incense for more happy faces
move units south so we can attack Monte next
5. 1850AD
Frederick has assembly line now
we'll get it in 2 only
6. 1852AD
zzz
7. 1854AD
assembly line is in, get RR from Roosevelt, go for biology and added growth
whip theatre in Shandong
8. 1856AD
RR is slow since we have very few workers
get liberalism from Saladin in exchange for a tech
9. 1858AD
RR around the capital
10. 1860AD
next turn we can attack Monte once the deal is up, we get biology in 4 should go for communism next
I was going for infra, Moscow will get ironworks in 5, Novgorod the national epic in 2, we should run some specialists there
once bio comes in

At first I have to tell you how amazed I was on the progress Strauss has been making against China. Congratulations and thank you for your efforts!
Pre-turn:
Declare on Montezuma immediately (why wait for what deal is up?) and bomb down the defences of L.A. Capture L.A. (1 lbow, 2 pikes, 3 knights and a cat)
We now trade bananas for 9gpt to Alex, replacing the former deal we had with Monte. We need gold. We've got a lot of outdated unit stuff.
1862 (1):
We destroy a stack of 5 units (2 muskets, 2 maces and a cat).
For 9 gpt we trade incenses to Mao. I know such is about to discuss, but the gold is very important to us, am I right?
1864 (2):
We've lost our Chinese prey city of Yangzhou, that had no unit and nothing could be done about it ... But anyways the city was quite worthless to us.
We destroy 2 knights pillaging in the south.
1866 (3):
Mao comes and offers open borders again. I do not want another war with him YET in the north as I have to deal with Monte. So we agree. Always watch his troop movements and power graphs...!
1868 (4):
Another stack (war elefant, 2 knights and an x-bow) is destroyed 2 s near L.A. without casualties, another big stack approaching in the south.
1870 (5):
A Rifleman is destroyed in the south.
1872 (6):
At the expense of two suicide cannons I manage to destroy a stack of a rifleman, a musket several knights and a cat. The rifleman (being at the hill) was the problem here. The first suicide did not work. I should have let the stack advance at the expense of one or two improvements rather than doing this. We need artillery.
1874 (7):
Aztec counter-attack. A rifleman, several cats and knights are thrown at our brave cossacks stationed at the hill where we lost our cannons.
We advance towards Mycenian destroying another stack of war elephants, knights and horse archers (???). Seems desperate
1876 (8):
Frederick comes and cancels the deal of 12 gpt from him for ivory. I ask if he could give us 12 gpt for free instead and he agrees.
Mycenian is strongly defended by two city rifles that will not easily fall.
1878 (9):
Defending the borders of Tlaxcala a supidly placed cossack (my fault, I did'nt think about roads) falls after destroying a knight.
Meanwhile at the loss of an infantry, Mycenian is ours. I popped a great artist here (anotherone is waiting in L.A.) as Greece is pressing very hard. Mycenian has a lot of population that I will use to whip some happiness and culture.
I sell Biology and Liberalism to Cyrus for his Combustion, some gold and his map. Expensive but a deal that's good for us as we have no monopoly on Biology.
1880 (10):
Communism is in. I would advice not to switch to State Property, but wait for Police State (5 turns witch Fascism) to come in. I lost 2 infantries at 90% odds
Conclusion:
During my reign a north-south railroad has been established to quickly move troops as well as railroads to increase production and many Factories have been started to build, coal plants are important. Moscow is great in production. Maybe build the Pentagon here (9 turns) for higher initial promotions?
Montezuma is now suffering really hard. Against our infantry he has no chance and our cossacks still are great to deal with his main force. But war weariness is hitting us as well. I had to increase the luxury spendings to 10%. As Montezuma has nothing to offer for peace we should though continue to advance on him. Take at least one further city. We're strong in spite of our bank lacking and we should take advantage of his bawardness. Infantry and cannons are the key now.
Watch out for some Aztec units. Don't let them pillage too much!
Farae, you're up with your great Empire again! You should gain pretty much production power very soon that you can use to grow our military.

you must go to State Property at once to prevent ABOMANATION of the Soviet Union!!! your variant rule is to switch to the Commonist Civics in the moment you get them.

OMG! Rules are good to be broken What is the meaning of "at once"?
If what you play does not make sense anymore just because you follow the rules, It is very odd. We lost anyway with building a bank.
I'm the bad guy here, though I seem to be the only one of you who ever lived in some kind of communists country
Obey the rules but be a little flexible, I say.
You may kick me now

Variant rules on the first post say that we have up to 7 turns to switch to the civics that we need to adopt. So we're still ok in that regard

Do what we can

I bring bad tidings. It is doubtful I will be able to get it done, and I want the SG to keep going. So thus, while I know this is irresponsible of me, I skip my turn.
>_>
I would've done it last night except for 6 hours of homework...
