OOPS.

Sorry guys, forgot to check the thread.

Should be able to get some turns in tonight. We just doing 5 here?

EDIT: Started playing these, but the turns are indeed pretty long here and I don't want to rush them. I have an interview tomorrow, so I need to get some sleep. I promise I'll have them finished up tomorrow right after my interview. (early afternoon)

IHT – I change the colosseum in Paris to a factory. Spend some time refamiliarizing myself with the game. Everything else looks pretty good, no culture builds or anything like that.

IT – Germany and Aztecs MA vs Russia. Lot of good it will do the Aztecs. Japan and Egypt MA vs Aztecs. Japan/Aztecs end embargo against us. Japan declares on Aztecs.

1255 AD (1) – Yokohama deposes. Attack with a nearby cav. Gee, that was easy

Retake with another. Build Poiriers NW of Yokohama. Move our cannons closer. Scout around looking for this Aztec stack Whomp mentioned. Spend some time restacking workers into perfect rail stacks.

IT – Watch a large number of units head onto German soil. Germany and Zulu embargo against us. Iro and Germany MA vs Aztecs.

1260 AD (2) – Rail, rush, and take a stab at Hamburg with an army. Kill the musket on top, but run out of attacks. I expect the Egyptians to take it during the interturn.

IT – My mistake, the Persians swoop in and take it. I think I’m gonna pull our troops back, we don’t have enough in the area to make any real progress, two armies notwithstanding. Cathy calls and wants to swap TM’s. Not really interested. Germany wants to talk, but I don’t care to hear what they say.

1265 AD (3) – Rail and rush some more, start pulling back units.

IT – India and Aztecs sign an embargo against us. America and Aztecs sign peace.

1270 AD (4) – See above.

IT – Persia and Greece embargo ends. Watch a large number of foreign units move around. Also watch a Persian cav lose to a LB on flatland.

1275 AD (5) – Not much here either. Have started assembling cavs in Fur City.

Looking back, I don’t know what the hell I did in these turns to warrant all the time they took, but they took about three hours in total. I decided to let everyone else have their way with the Germans, as there are a large number of Egyptian and Persian troops there and didn’t feel a couple more outposts were worth the efforts. I think the Persian lands would make a nice addition to the glorious idiot empire, personally.

I'll take it. won't get to it till Friday though.

AS you can proabbaly guess from the sequence of trades we are now a Communist. After the revolution retook Niagra Falls from the Iroquois. All of the alliances against the Aztecs are due up, so can be canceled if you are so inclined.

If you are looking for a war I think either the Egyptians or the Japanese would make good targets. Egypt has infantry though.
The Red Republic of France

 

[Whomp]

I got it and will use the communist features to the best of my ability. Fight and steal.

 

[Bede]

That about sums it up. Still have a few to go on the IA though.

 

[Whomp]

My first turn was especially long so sorry for the delay. Hope to finish tonight.

I had to re-mm bunch of cities with police and CE's, stole two techs and traded a bunch of others, made peace with Aztecs and started a war with Japan and Persia for their oil.

 

[brachy-pride]

which map are you using?

 

[Tubby Rower]

lurker's comment: per request of Whomp... I played a few turns. Whompus Maximus started a war with the Japs and Persians just before he handed it to me. I took a few cities including the Persians' horse supply. So no more cavs for them.

I have an army with ~ 10 arties headed into the Jap homeland. There are some cannons near Persia's heart.

I really believe that you guys are going to have to take on Rome and Egypt soon. Maybe sign one against the other then backstab your partner. It looks like your rep is ruined before I got it. Also the intel agency jsut finished. I planted NO spies. I laid a lot of rails too. Check troop placement before you press enter.
