Hey guys =)
I need some help in my current game. It's been a while i didnt play, and to come back to Civ4 i decided to give Emperor a try; seems like Emp AIs are faster and requests/trades are more expensive.
Anyway, let me summarize the game until now:
I got Mehmed and pretty nice land: flood plains, Copper nearby, lot of room to expand... JC right next to me scared me a bit but he didnt expand towards me, so i didnt rush him; i expanded to 8 cities.
No iron, i didnt feel like going to Engineering, so i decided to take the Lib-Cuirs route. For iron i noticed Hannibal was willing to trade it away cheaply so it was cool.
Now im at 760AD. I teched Nationalism to get the Taj in my capital, im currently starting Gunpowder and after that i'll tech Lib --> MT.
I already started to build some HAs that i'll upgrade into Cuirs.
Now my problem: ............Hannibal doesnt want to trade iron away anymore. :/
He does want, but in exchange of way more things than before, including my only horses.
He's also the only one agreeing to trade it away.
So right now i dont know how to continue the game, since i cant do anything i was planning without iron.
Some AIs are already researching Engineering btw, so i'm late anyway :/
What would you guys do in this situation?
Here's the 760AD save. Feel free to tell any advice, criticism, feedback of any sort.
Thanks in advance =) (and please excuse my average english)
