hey silver i'm indian too

okay heres the plan i see build an army of 24 MA and 24 MI now put them into 3 groups using the first group attack through Arunachui Pardesh and capture Zhanjiang. leave a couple of MI their and do the same with Hong Kong and then finally Guangzhou. Now the units that were attacking you at the centeral Himalayan will start moving to prevent you from capturing cities in the east but you won't capture any more instead use this oppurtunity to use the 2nd group to capture Lhasa and Hotan. and use the third group to capture Tashkent. now fortify and if you have any MA or MI get them to the newly captured city and rush units in them for defence now the next turn hopefully if you did this right ask for peace and most likely they'll give you peace along with other things you want just say a counter-offer and wheel and deal until you get a fair deal after that build up border security at the borders of the new territory and also you have 2 paths of after 20 turns of building up and peace you can attack again or stay at peace with China but whatever you do have a strong border control and army so the Chinese won't attack again

I hope this helps you fellow Indian in your conquest for power

No it's Muffins WW3 scenario heavily modified by me. The units are all the same. The fixed gun and fixed solider are just a immobile cannon and musketman.

I love that scenario! I know this is off topic, but what did you change?

 

[silver 2039]

I added a whole bunch of civs placed a bunch of units then I fiddled with the editor and increased range and power of the cruise missle made armor and artillery wheeled. Made Gurellia stronger and gave it stealth attack. Chnaged upgrade path. added fixed solider and fixed gun etc...

Thanks for your advice. I captured Zhanghijaing alreday. The Chinese made a breakthrough at the Himilayas but I pushed them back I'm also hitting their roads and rails so they have trouble getting reinforcements to the border.

I know this is late but hey guys I won! I captured all the Chinese cities up the east coast all the way to Bejing then I nuked Bejing the Chinese retalatiated but all their nukes were blocked by my SDI defense and the world declare war on them. China became a nuclear wasteland. The European Union liberated Khazakstan and a few Chinese cities in the west up to Hotan. The South East Asian Union burnt Chengdu and Chongquing and the Pacific Defense Pact burnt several Chinesecities and captured all of Manchuria! And the Russians captured Ulan Baator. I got Lahasa during peace negotians. Anyway later I conquered Ishanfah, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Israel. I turned America into a wasteland (nuclear) and had a nuclear shoot out with Scandnavia and Australia, Britan, East Africa, and the African Union. The European Union also got into a nuke war with the Russians and the Pacific Defense Pact, South Africa, South East Asia, Argentina/Chile, Brazil, and Latin America all got hit. Eventually the world turned into a giant radioactive desert. India has become the worlds sole superpower! Victory to India we have been avenged!
Fun game.

Screenshots!

Looks like a fun game Silver, but what graphics mod is that with your forts? groucho

 

[silver 2039]

There's no graphic mod it's just forts with barricades. It's comes in Conquests.

 

[anarres]

Ahh, I've not tried barricades yet...

 

[silver 2039]

They're very useful really stopped the Chinese advance and blunted their offensive.

 

[Moonsinger]

So I need advice should I call it quits and make peace while my luck holds or should I march on Bejing?

There is no shame in making peace while rebuilding up your force.

BTW China is bigger, has a bigger army and has better production capicity and more resourses than me.

Build more artillery! When going against an enemy far stronger than you, at least 1/2 of your military units should be artilleries. Since the AIs usually withdraw their wounded, a hundred artilleries can usually hold your border intact forever and that would give you plenty of time to regroup, rebuild or whatever. Of course, I'm assuming the worst case scenario here (since I haven't actually seen your game).

 

[Moonsinger]

I love barricades; they are no use against slow moving units, but they excellent to trap all fast moving units. With proper barricades, we can trap and kill most of the AIs fast moving units during the first 5 turns into the war (the AI is very stupid when it comes to warfair).

 

[anarres]

...warfair

Oh, if only it was Moonsinger, but some evil person keeps destryong me with artillery!

What better artillery than nukes? I finished my game anyway see above

Sorry, I didn't realize you got it all figure out (since I didn't read the whole thread ). Anyway, I have never used nuke against the AI or anyone (other than using them for teraforming the home planet); therefore, I don't really know anything about nuke.

 

[zerksees]

Well I like nukes as much as the next guy but all the AI’s don’t retaliate in unison when I launch artillery.

Anyway, I have never used nuke against the AI or anyone

Put a few more AI's on a smaller map so they stand a better chance against you. Then try some you might like them.

What level are you suggesting here? Realistically, if you can manage to put all 32 AIs on a tiny map, I don't think it would make any different at the Chieftain level. Other the other hand, on the Sid level, you surely won't survive until the modern age.

PS: The only way I can beat Sid now is on a huge map with no more than 10 civs. I recently tried one with 15 AIs and they ate me alive long before I got artillery.

 

[Jake5555555]

I just started a game as India on this map and conquered pakistan in one turn By the way, why do india, canada, and one other that I forgot have three civ traits on this map?

 

[Gelion]

Excuse me but what scenario is it? And does it use Conquests?
And is there a download link?

Even on archipelago?

Moonsinger, I would not want you to waste your time on chieftain. I think if I could fill the map with AI's on chieftain you would beat that.

Try 6-10 AI on standard map C3C deity level. Play continents and normal temperate and 4 billion years old. Find some balance where the AI might last beyond your "innocent" barrage of artillery without eating you alive. From your other posts I think you usually play huge maps, but the smaller map will also speed up the game.

(I would suggest demigod but I want the AI to have a chance )
