*Pre-turn* (finally)
Well I started things off by looking at where our military was... wonderful...
We REALLY needed transports and FAST. Since we are at war, we might as well knock out their oil too :slay: Switch cities to hospitals, just so we can get more money and production (and lots more unit support if we need it)
Change Madrid to The Internet.
*War Front*
Check for uranium, only Zulu has one and it's not hooked up, I'll keep some carriers there just to make sure he doesn't try something sneaky. I then commence bombing one of the Vikings oil resources and succed. I then realize the bomber force in Zulu is NOWHERE the amount I used on Celts, so I go back to Celtica and FIND 40 MORE UNUSED?! D'OH!
ib- 2 cruise missles destroy our sub, ya that
really makes sense. A SoD of 2 TOWS and 4 tanks are dropped off near Lagash as a premature invasion from Lagnar.
turn 1, 1816 aD...
Some city production changed, I'm not going to record what was built due to a mishap on my part, that is coming up though.
Bombers smash the SoD near Lagash, 2 promotes. Then I disconnect 2nd oil resource and Vikings are POWERLESS against us now! With this great feat I send an SoD to Molde to begin the inevitable Island Hop Campaign.
I decide to upgrade our old tanks little by little, I'm going to save up soon to upgrade all our pikes too.

ib- enemy battleship destroys ours, it was basically making sure a worker didn't connect that oil again.
turn 4, 1822 aD...
Decide I need to crank out MA faster, so I mobilize our nation... IDIOT! I forgot that you CAN NOT work on anything non-military related when mobilized, so we lose construction of hospitals and Internet to begin...SAMs.
In my fit of rage (ignorance?) I pick off some SoDs hanging around. It makes me happier to know whenever we destroy one of their oil units they CAN'T make up for the lose, at all.
Move lux tax down seeing as how there is no war weariness and because I really want to upgrade units.

*Thoughts for next Player*
There are transports EVERYWHERE, just so you know...
2 Transports full of MA are heading to Zimbabwe, this is so we can go to war w/ Zulu and end game swiftly.
2 more Transports full of MA are heading to lone north city of Risor.
Send ALL transports to old Dutch Island to pick up MAs for the major assault!
The other transports are either heading to Dutch land or are going to islands above original Vikings Island.
I suggest beginning Stealth next, just for better bombers (since we're mobilized, can't help that)
Oh and PLEASE bomber EVERYTHING around Trondheim, I just don't want them getting that wonder. Once Trondheim has lost everything, keep bombing it and the nearby uber cities around it!
Otherwise, just relax and enjoy the good times.
The Future
. You did great, and were really helpful. How about the save (not trying to be pushy)?
