IHT: Most of our citizens want the wars to stop. I agree; America will get tanks soon. If I can get to tanks as well, we'll have a good chance to capture America in 20 turns.
Start with conquering though. Cav army to attack Dallas.
Army kills 2 infs. 3 cavs flee from Inf, but the 4th kills him. 5th cav defeats remainging cav and Dallas is ours. Temple ordered up.
Battle of Miami. 4/4 cav Vs 2/4 Inf -> victory and promotion to elite. 2nd cav dies, redlining the Inf. Next cav captures Miami. Temple ordered.
Going for New Orleans with cav-army. It is redlined, defending ELite inf is 3/5.

New Orleans starts temple.
The American city of St. Louis holds their last horse resource. We still 11 fully healed cavs available, plus some partly healed. The Cav army has only 2 movement points left; it can't attack.
All units can attack Denver though; but it's on a hill. Tough choice. Try a Spy-plant mision with the Americans for 90 gold, so I can investigate the cities-defenses. Unsuccesful. Decide to go for St. Louis.
5/5 cav Vs 3/3 Inf -> We loose, Inf 2/4.
3/3 cav Vs 3/3 Inf -> We loose, Inf 1/3.
5/5 cav Vs 3/3 Inf -> We win, cav 2/5.
