GCF1 - Vikings

Yeah, good turns - just get troops over there :)
 
Perhaps sue for peace now and worry about next target?

@conehead great turns! Kind of straight forward so I didn't really know if anything important happened until I read it a second time :lol:
 
I think that the best part about these turns is that I picked up 2 more Luxuries.
 
preturn check:

War weariness is beginning to show. celts are willing to give us Augustodurum or Agedincum for peace, I will continue to attack them for some turns and see if I can get something better.

We need to build more military, most of our cities are very poorly defended. And we sure can afford it, Feudalism sure can support a large army.

Switch Leptis minor from temple to harbor, wasting some shields but connecting our gems.
Switch Stavanger from galley to temple.
Switch Bryansk from library to temple.

We now control the entire southern hemisphere.

The former celtic continent:

Hubba is standing by in Hareid, ready to build the military academy in a good city as soon as we get Military tradition.

we should buy, extort or steal our way up some techs as we have a huge prebuild, currently 533 shields, ready in Copenhagen. Any tech we get, we will be able to build the wonder. We just need to decide which one we want.

We will get military tradition in 2 turns, we could probrably use that in some trades.

Save
 
Great Job. That the celts are no more, I say that germany is next because they are pretty backwards. We could use the prebuild for Smith's or Bach's.
 
Beautifully done skunk!
Well, that pre-build should DEFINETLY go towards Smith's, no question about it. Having no maintenance for harbors is really $exy right now ;). We should begin thinking about these 2 things:
1) should we move the palace to Celtica or other island?
and
2) England or Arabia next :mwaha:?

Personally, I feel Arabis is too strong with their Siphafi right now, so England seems like the best choice for an attack.
 
Oh btw, IIRC it is now Gunnerxtr's turn.
 
Well done! *applause*

Gunner needed a skip last time, let's hope he remembers and has free time now :)
 
Great turns! However, we do not control the entire southern hemisphere, there is one English, and one Arabian city there as well.

If Gunner doesn't reply in 24 hours, I'll assume he needs to be skipped again :(.

Oh, and Arabia doesn't have the Spiahi ;). They have the Ansar Warrior, which IIRC is just a fast knight, with less defense.

Yes, there is. But that little problem would easily be removed by our first cavs :D.

I agree, I think Smith's is the wonder that will be of most use to us.

England or Arabia next :mwaha:?

Whichever we take, we should ally with the other to drag them in and slow them down. Not to mention that they won't ally against us.

We could start the next war immediately, we have several berserks that will be in position for battle in a few turns and the war wearinnes is still easy to control now when we have so many luxuries.

On the other hand, we could spend 10-20 turns building, upgrading and improving. We really could use a bigger military, our defenses are extremely thin. Several cities has no defense at all. And we can definitely afford it, our governments military support is only used to about 2/3.
 
sry, i am suffering from a sort of Civ3 burnout and an extremely busy life :( , i definately cannot play this turn and quite possibly the game, regardless i will still comment on this game as it seems to be going well. im sorry if i let you guys down :(
 
See ya gunner :devil2:

got it.
