I need advice

[xonixs]

How will you continue with this?

I have just made peace with the mongolians. OOOh you should know how close i was at getting my arse kicked when they started the war.
Litteraly one unit saved me...

For one turn i even lost my capitol :S
Anyway now i have demonstrated to the mongolian who of us is the better part

So what should i do next?
Destroy the mongolian completely?
I have diplomat scouting the enemy territory... Diplomat because its a horseman so it has 2 movement points AND 1+ in visibilty range

No enemy empire can be big enough for me
So i could also see what the other AI's are up too. The world is bigger than me and the mongolians

I could also concentrate on the culture. As you will notice the sourtheren region is very unstable cause of culture bombardment. How should i react on this?

This is due the early war. My science was down on 20 %, Now i think it is on 50 or is it 60?

So i focused only on discovering new military techneques... And no religion wanted to spread in my cities
But it has changed now and i am gaining in on the americans who are in the lead

You will also notice that there is only 2 diffrent kinds of state religion. If you want religious war between many AI's this is it

To follow up in tech level i have established 3 research facilities deep behind my lines. Good or bad?

If you can quickly, effectively eliminate the Mongolians, do so. They won't stop expanding, and they favor military units.

I always found the Mongols to be a thorn in my side.I would agree.Take them out if you can.

Update.. (have reached 1650<year>1700)

I maneged to kick the mogolian even further -but i cant get the 2 last cities because they are too far away. So they are still alive.

I have climbed through the ranks and are now number 2. Before i was cathing in on USA but now its a stalemate.

But its now time for war again. In the attached file i have desribed how the first dawn of the war is planned to be.
The attack will be lounched against the russians. The Russians have a religous allie the Aztecs (montezuma) but i will bribe the Egyptians to go war with them.
The Aztecs are already in war with Cyrus (not sure on Cyrus though).

Between the russians and the Aztecs lies the Persian empire and the last two cities of Mogolian. It will be fun to see if the hindu religion can surround the Persian empire from 2 sides

Hindu = French, Cyrus, Egyptians, Spain
Buddism = Russia, Aztecs

Resently the American who are in the lead converted into christianity and our diplomatics are colliding :/

Do you think i will be victorious in this war against the Russians?
Do you think we can souround the Persians and push him into Hindu?

hmm i drawed some lines in that save. But they seem to be gone. So i have made a screenshot just to show how i will get one of the cities.

Visgoth is defended by 1 grenadier and 2 longbow

*edit* I opened your saved game.

Your power graph looks like you can take on any... There are some changes that I would make.

1. Where are your artillery units? They move slow but save you unit loss.
2. You have heavy garrisons and you do not need such large garrisons.
3. Upgrade units that you will remove from your garrisons. Keep 3 units on border cities but degarison the rest... Cities on water are border cities.

So, I would put 2 cav in each border city with the Russians. I would build 5 cannon for bombment. I would cash upgrade your garrisons and place those units in your infantry stack.

I have a lot of canons. I think it is 5.
They should be marked with a sign: FORCE THAT ATTACK MOSCOW

Try zoom out and look to the south.

Regarding your point 2:
I have a heavy garrison because i am planning to take Moscow. This will require much.
I am planning to move out in the next turn

I always plays with a little defence force I count on counterattack the enemy...

I haven't looked at you saved game but under normal circumstances, 5 cannons is not a lot (I don't think so anyway, I'm still a newb to this game).
