That's better.
btw : Report in that game i was playing : I got into a war with Russia, how? Inhotep was being crushed by Russian armies, that had already got half of India, leaving him with just 5 cities and few remains of his once powerful army, then, he asked help to the only empire capable of taking on Redspy : Germany. So yea, i accepted and quickly took all Russian border cities (St. Petersburg, Ankara, Yakasomething and a viking city in Prussia). and i'm currently almost at Moscow, my armies are really pwning (i have infantry). while my navy is dominanting, the only enemy with a strong navy is Trexeric, however i have a full fleet (8 ironclad cruisers and 6 transports) in Kiel and another one in the English Channel, so i wouldn't expect him to get sea dominance.
This is the war that will decide who will be the major power in the world. while this all happened Mosher forced China to become his vassal in the east, he likes Russia more than me, so i hope he won't join my enemies...
Before the war Russia was pleased towards me, however this could change at any moment, and i didn't wanted a even stronger Russia. They were way too much agressive and powerful, after all
EDIT : Okay, now i'm amazed at this game. it seems a Russian army of around 23+ cossacks, 18- rifles, 6- cannons and 6 airships can destroy my 2 armies at moscow plus a army near it, the thing is, these 3 armies together had around 32 Infantry and 12 Artillery and 1 machine gun, and the biggest problem...the Russians had almost no losses it seems, because i lost a lot of my power graph while they didn't lost nearly as much. Congratulations Civilization IV, ragequit. Oh, the problem is, a lot of Russian troops had no upgrades at all, while mine all had 2 or 3 upgrades.
I'm amazed at how this game is stupid...when i get in the mood i'm going to continue this before all that happened. I'm even hearing Civilization IV being like : Problem?
