GOTM 151 Spoiler

[Prof. Garfield]

This game was quick. I had good luck with huts, getting a nomad and 2 advanced tribes. In an unusual twist, I decided not to pop a hut later in the game because another advanced tribe would have made the riot factor worse, and my civ was pretty well balanced in terms of happiness at the time.

My cities were quite close together, except for my 2 advanced tribes, which were a bit farther north (though close enough to help each other accumulate a 300 shield wonder). I shared pheasant between cities, and most ended up as size 3 cities working 3 forest tiles. I only had 10 cities in the game.

(1) 4000 BC: With the Pheasant, I don't think it is worth doing the size 1 settler trick. Will build both my early cities with access to the Pheasant.
(2) 3950 BC: Build Athens and Sparta. Athens is inland and Sparta on the Coast so the capital is just a little bit more central. Athens works pheasant and begins settler. Sparta begins warrior, will work ocean for a turn before switching to forest.
(3) 3900 BC: Begin Ceremonial burial.
(4) 3850 BC: ...
(5) 3800 BC:
(6) 3750 BC: Warrior completed, begin another warrior.
(7) 3700 BC: Ceremonial burial, begin Alphabet.
(8) 3650 BC:
(9) 3600 BC: Warrior uncovers another pheasant near Athens.
(10) 3550 BC: Sparta warrior; rehome warrior to Athens.
(11) 3500 BC:
(12) 3450 BC:
(13) 3400 BC: Athens size 2.
(14) 3350 BC: Move warrior out of Athens in wrong direction; change Sparta to ocean to give warrior time to get back before city grows.
(15) 3300 BC: Athens settler.
(16) 3250 BC:
(17) 3200 BC: (121,93) hut yields nomads!!! Build Thermopylae with Athens settler.
(18) 3150 BC: Alphabet, begin Bronze Working. Sparta size 2.
(19) 3100 BC:
(20) 3050 BC: (119,99) hut: horseman.
(21) 3000 BC: Thermopylae warrior.
(22) 2950 BC: NON settler builds Corinth, with access to whales. Rehome horseman to Corinth.
(23) 2900 BC:
(24) 2850 BC: Sparta settler. Map analysis reveals the resource seed to be 30.
(25) 2800 BC: (120,82) hut yields Delphi.
(26) 2750 BC: Hut gives 50 gold. Athens size 2.
(27) 2700 BC: Bronze Working, begin Code of Laws. Build Pharsalos. Work Fish because that makes city 6, so need monarchy before more expansion. Switch Sparta to Colossus, since it isn't in a good position to build settlers.
(28) 2650 BC: Athens settlers.
(29) 2600 BC: Thermopylae grows to size 2, but I forgot to put a warrior into the city, so it descends into disorder. (122,76) hut: Advanced tribe Knossos. This will put Athens into disorder, so I rush a warrior there for 19 gold.
(30) 2550 BC: Micromanage to keep Corinth in Order. Road between Sparta and Athens complete.
(31) 2500 BC: Order restored in Thermopylae. Will let Athens go into disorder because it isn't important at the moment.
(32) 2450 BC: Disorder in Athens.
(33) 2400 BC: Road between Athens and Thermopylae. Hut gives a barb horseman. Sparta is size 2
(34) 2350 BC: Corinth Size 2. Barb horse kills warrior. Code of Laws, begin Monarchy.
(35) 2300 BC: Corinth settlers. Thermopylae settlers.
(36) 2250 BC: Order in Athens. Delphi size 2.
(37) 2200 BC:
(38) 2150 BC: Pharsalos size 2.
(39) 2100 BC: Build Argos.
(40) 2050 BC: Build Mycenae.

Foreign Policy: Chinese, Worshipful, Allied, No Embassy.

(52) 1450 BC: Order in Thermopylae. Hut yields horseman.
(53) 1400 BC: Knossos settlers.
(54) 1350 BC: Russians: Make peace. Chinese develop currency. Pharsalos settlers. Trade, begin Pottery. Get Map Making from Russians in exchange for Monarchy; give them Currency, but they won't trade maps (I didn't want to give them a wonder tech). Disband an exploring Delphi warrior to bring production in the city to 5 shields; then realize the city can produce 7 if it stops working the gems.
(55) 1300 BC: Corinth Caravan. I don't pop a hut because an advanced tribe would wreak the balance I've established in the civ.
(56) 1250 BC:
(57) 1200 BC: Delphi caravan. Thermopylae caravan. Athens caravan.
(58) 1150 BC: Mycenae caravan.
(59) 1100 BC: French begin Pyramids. Argos caravan. Give Chinese Trade in exchange for Writing so I can have a 30 shield unit for IRB. Caravan into Sparta for Colossus.

[littlejimmy]

This was a fun game, but I clearly have a lot to learn from the guys here.

3950 BC: Athens founded
3650 BC: Sparta founded
3550 BC: Alphabet
3100 BC: Advanced Tribe hut popped
3000 BC: Ceremonial Burial
2900 BC: 4th city founded
2650 BC: Writing
2250 BC: 5th city founded
2150 BC: Code of Laws
1650 BC: Monarchy (switched to immediately)
1600 BC: popped Pottery hut
1400 BC: 6th and 7th cities founded
1200 BC: Barbarians land
1050 BC: payed barbs 145c not to kill my city
1050 BC: popped another advanced tribe
1000 BC: Literacy

8 cities. No contact yet. Still in despotism. Sparta is working on Hanging Gardens.
I notice I'm already falling behind Prof. Garfield in tech.
Based on his notes I suppose I need to micromanage better.
I generally let cities go into disorder before dealing with them, losing production.

975 BC: Aztecs build Hanging Gardens ( i switch to colossus )
775 BC: Bronze Working
725 BC: more barbarians land
675 BC: Babylon builds Colossus
600 BC: barb archer destroys a city
575 BC: Mystisism - bribe the archer
525 BC: replaced 8th city
450 BC: 500,000 pop
425 BC: Chinese build Pyramids
425 BC: Founded 9th city
375 BC: Philosophy - Currency
350 BC: Encounter a Chinese Horseman up north - make peace
325 BC: Encounter the Russians - make peace - they attack the Chinese - they don't seem to be getting along
325 BC: Get Mapmaking from Chinese, Warrior Code and Map Making from Russians
250 BC: Babylonians build Marco Polo
225 BC: Establish embassy with the Russians - they have 3 cities
125 BC: 1 million citizens
75 BC: Republic - I switch to Republic
25 BC: Establish embassy with Chinese - they have 5 cities. I pump up luxuries to try and grow some cities

20 AD: I have 9 cities. 3 ancient wonders built by enemies. My tech really fell behind here. Obviously, I'm going to have to get into attack mode eventually.
I've got 3 cities working on wonders, but none completed yet. I still don't have caravans which is really hurting.

80 AD: subverted a new Chinese city - stole Masonry
100 AD: founded 11th city
160 AD: Trade - finally, 12th city founded
320 AD: I build Oracle and Great Wall - Polytheism
340 AD: 13th city founded
360 AD: Stole Construction from the Chinese - they declare war
400 AD: I bribe a warrior and let them attack it in a fortified square. then make peace.
460 AD: i build Great Library
500 AD: Monotheism - If i can complete the Lighthouse that will give me 4 of the 7 wonders. Then I'm thinking about attacking the Chinese with crusaders they seem to be the second most powerful civ.

more later.

Prof Garfield:

Your hut outcome was pretty spectacular. But what might have been better is you avoided the dreaded "SCROLLS".
Your tech development was an almost perfect progression:
CB -> Alphabet -> BW -> CoL -> Monarchy -> Masonry -> Currency -> Trade (-1350)

I played the game early in January (more details to follow soon), here is my progression:
Alpabet -> Col -> HBR (Hut) -> BW -> CB (Trade with Chinese) -> Masonry (Trade with Chinese) -> Map Making (Hut) -> Monarchy -> Currency -> Trade (-850)

If I can count correctly, you got Trade 14 turns earlier than I did. Getting trade later meant I couldn't build caravans fast enough.
The first 2 wonders built in my game were Hanging Gardens (Babylonians) and Pyramids (Aztecs).

Of course, I couldn't have stopped the Babylonians from building HG, because I hadn't researched Pottery at the time they built it (not sure if I could have gotten it from the Chinese or Russians).

Losing out on HG was bad enough, but losing it to the Babylonians meant my game was a lot longer since I had to travel to the other end of the world to capture it.


Additional Note on 2/10: I checked my saves. When the Babylonians built HG, the Chinese and Russians had not researched Pottery. So there was no way for me to get it. I probably could have rushed the Pyramids, but I am not sure what the Aztecs would have changed to, so I might have lost something else instead.

 

[Major Advantage]

Good job, Professor! It seems to me you played this game close to perfection, combined with a good amount of luck, such as hut outcome and the Babylonians abandoning their wonder construction.

I think my own game was played to much like a normal game, too many cities that are pretty much unneeded, but caused many riots. And during tech-trade I chose construction over masonry, simply "by default".

1510 AD: Capture Chengdu - Chinese destroyed - I've got 22 cities, the russians and Sioux seem to be on my continent but i think I will ignore them and make a boat trip to Tenochtilan since they have a wonder.

I've captured 1 of the wonders that i didn't build, and I have build 3 of the necessary 4 replacement wonders. At this point I feel I'm powerful enough that success seems inevitable, but it may still take a while.

[Major Advantage]

-750 Bablyon builds HG

This seems like terrible news, meaning the necessity to grab a city at the other end of the world. I was lucky as my needed-to-conquer wonder was just around the corner.

The final part of my log:

Spoiler :

-475 Hail Russia, don't gamble on tech-trade as they offer IW, get 150g tribute
-450 Mapmak.->Myst.; bribe Doom City back for 26g
-400 Embassy with Russia
-375 Knossos builds Great Wall (Babyls to LH); Milet, Artemis founded
-325 50g from china
-250 Myst.->Lit.; dye(d)>Moskau 144g
-225 Lighthouse built in Pharsalos (Babyl to Oracle); Oracle built in Delphi (Babyl aband), I love to have them in their right places; Megara founded
plan: prepare to build GL (have 6 vans standing by, build when AIs are ready), use Sun Tzu as compensation wonder, attack Peking with vet-ellies (>polytheism), build Marco soon for tech exchange
-200 Phocae founded
-150 Literacy->HBR;
-100 75g from Russia, 50g from China
-75 Marco Polo built; get HBR from France; Russians are working on Feudalism, nobody's doing Poly
(Sioux start GL)
-50 Research Philo

Stats at +20:
Cities: 21; techs: 15; gold: 72; wonders: HG, Colossus, LH, Oracle, GW, Marco Polo, Pyramids in Peking
units: 8 settler, 25 warrior, 6 phalanx, 3 archer, 2 legion, 1 chariot, 13 vans

And the final part
+40 Philo->Polyth.->Medicine; new plan: try to conquer Peking with ellies and build Shakespeare as additional wonder (in case Russians don't geut feudalism in time)
60 two more cities
100 gems(d) 54g, domestic hides(d) 52g, Mytilene founded inside Peking's city radius
120 dye(d) 68g, prepare for final turn
140 Medicine->Republic; copper(d) 100g; wait one more turn since only 2 ellies could attack this turn, rush dip for spying
160 Shakespeare Theater built in Thermopylae; dip reports 2 warrior + 1 archer behind city walls, don't care for peace and sneak attack: 4 eles needed to kill the Archer, 1 for each warrior, grab Peking (27g + Pyramids);
All ancient wonders + Shakespeare in our possession

 

[Ali Ardavan]

Starting on this I did not even think it possible to build all 7 wonders before the rivals build any. Prof. Garfield's game, which does just that, is quite an achievement.

In my case, Babylonians started Pyramids in -1350 and finished it in -625. I could have prevented it but I did not even bother, thinking that they would switch to another wonder anyway. The fact that I have to go to the other end of the world to capture it means that my game will take quite long to finish.

My challenge right now is to make sure that I do not miss out on any other ancient wonders. 2 are done and 2 are about to be done. Rivals are building 2.

My hut luck was decent but not excellent. Got money, 1 on path tech (Bronze), and one advanced tribe. No units till -725, no nomads, and no barbarians.

 

[Ali Ardavan]

-4000 So far rivals are Babylonian, French, Aztec.
Initial strategy: One settler heads south the other east to tip a hut before the southern one builds a city. Hopefully I will get a unit. Money would be good too. Capital will go for size 1 settler while the other settler tips huts or makes improvements. As soon as the size 1 settler is ready two new cities will be built.
-3950 Russian and Chinese are also in.
-3850 50g from hut! This is good. It speeds up size 1 settler. Athens founded at 4 special location with access to 2 whales, fish, and pheasant.
-3800 -> Alphabet
-3650 25g from hut. Really needed unit.
-3600 Whale revealed.
-3450 Alphabet -> Code of Laws.
-3300 Size 1 settler produced. Bronze working from hut.
-3250 Sparta founded by second None settler at 125,101.
-3150 Thermopylae founded at 112, 96 sharing 6 tiles with Athens. Sioux are also in.

This ended up taking much longer than I expected. The main culprit was the map; I should have black clicked more.

My leading two ships were heading north in the waters that separated the western edge of home continent from Sioux land on continent 16 only to discover that continent 16 extends east wards all the way to just west of Moscow.

I expected to finish before 500 but that was not meant to be.

[URUWASHI]

I am aware my game does not count since I finished beyond the Dead Line.
Still, was fun , played the game in less than 4 hours, after I was able to download it.
Built all 7 wonders PLUS Marco before 200 AD.
I Wish I had logged in a week ago !!
Game over by 180 AD.

 

[Ali Ardavan]

The deadline was just a few days ago and nothing is graded yet. I say go ahead and submit. Magic and Prof. Garfield, what do you think?

 

[Prof. Garfield]

Fine with me.

Nice to see someone else got all the wonders as well. I had debated on building Marco in order to be able to better choose which wonders to complete in which order, but I ultimately decided I didn't need it.

 

[URUWASHI]

Shall I post my Log then ? And submit my game ?
I made the log based on the few saves I made ..I did not really keep track of the game....
I would not mind if it does not count....just play it to have fun.
I only built Marco because it saved me to get a couple of Techs that I would not Have ASAP and to keep track of what Civ was building WHAT.

Game 151-
( Original Post missed several turns, I kept a basic handwritten log and I only had a few saves of the game, so I had to research several points - ie Mysticism was one of my Techs and never traded since I had it as a White Tech )

4000 - Settler 1 moves to tile 115.93 - Setller 2 - Moves to tile 115.95- Possible locations for a 2 or 3 location special, both could be supported by Phaesant, building Athens city at 114.94 will allow just one settler to use Phaesant
3950 - Both Settlers Build Roads - Building roads will allow both Cities to get an income from Trade, and using Phaesant as a shield source, roads will allow both cities to get Trade arrows...
3900 - Settler 1 moves to 116.94 - Settler 2 moves to 112.96

3300 - Hut @ 119.99 = Archers- PERFECT !! Now I Use my excel file and find that my start was correct- That Implies that both cities have access to Sparta has access to 4 special tiles ( 109.95, 113.93, 115.97 and 119.99 ) while Athens has access to 3 Specials ( 113.93, 115.97 and 119.95 ) - 113.93 and 115.97 will be shared

1800- Ceremonial Burial @ Code of Laws.- Construction of Wonders Beguins in Athens - Thermophylae and Delphi all Building Hanging Gardens -
1200 - Sparta beguins Building HG Wonder - Trade will be available in 8 Turns - 5 Other cities start to build Settlers, that will be shifted to Caravans as soon as Trade is discovered.
1600- Mycenae Built at 123.93
