Getting ahead on prince

[The Pilgrim]

But if I only play on King and below? Why about when my insane production city has built every building? I don't need workers or chat units, so occaisonally I build a semi-useful wonder.

Time to move to next level.

"Oh hey China, what you doing so close to my border? We had a declaration of friendship! NOOO it burns!!!!"

*dies* :suicide:

*cries out of the grave* "But I don't understand! I was doing what I'm always doing and nothing like that ever happened before! I must have got a really bad roll this time!... "

I haven't tried king yet! I looked at the bonuses the AI get, and they don't seem too scary. King should be possible to beat, haha.

Yeah, it is easy to fall into a cycle of building wonders. It is like a gambling game where you double down.

"Hey, I got one wonder and some awesome bonuses real easy. Why not another?"

"Wow two and no harm done! Just imagine the pure awesomeness of my empire if I add another!"

"The AI still hasn't grabbed these?! Well, they are low turns so I will quickly add them"

"Oh hey China, what you doing so close to my border? We had a declaration of friendship! NOOO it burns!!!!"

*dies* :suicide:

Yup--that's what's been happening to me

I've learned my lesson.

Wow, I'm currently playing King. Standard settings with Russia. I started in Asia, but it's not that bad. I thought King would be a lot harder, but I've been finding lots of goodie huts, haha. Russia prevails.
