Inquisitors

Cosmichail said:
Me too sad, you guys are good players and glad you joined up with the Power of Religion. I am just amazed at the Super Cities in this game. I want to start a SG based on it but want to finish a few first. I am only playing Monarch from now on as Prince is starting to feel "easy". Have some games on Emperor but still find that tough but learning.

I think this one is definitely winding down. I've probably played my last set as well. We have a tremendous army in Monte's territory.

Have you tried Warlords yet? I was consistently winning on Prince with random starts in 1.61 and moving up to Monarch, but Warlords is kicking my butt on Prince.
 
Not yet but will be getting it. Different strategies to win that game perhaps. Be interesting as I would like to play the Vikings.
 
Roster:

1. Cosmichail --> UP--> Looking forward to crushing Monty
2. Krockel -->on deck -->Has gone abroad to spread the word
3. Omurtag -->--> amassed a huge army
4. Adamlan --> --> autoskip --> Hope the secret police haven't take him
5. Foolonthehill --> just played-->Take command and crush Monty

Good job Foolonthehill and a domination might be close with Monty. We cannot declare on Peter unless he's gone to Free Religion or likewise with Alex. 51% so it means Monty needs to add 14% which is possible.

I like the idea of the GE on Wall street and then start a golden age for fast science/building.

Will play Aug 2 afternoon.
 
I have played and will be posting soon. WOW what a lot of MMing. We might not have enough with Monty and I noticed that Peter has gone to Free Religion and since we will have a mass of troops there I think it might be necessary to attack him. Will be posting in the next couple of hours.
 
T1

Monty attacks our frigate and looses
Finish Wallstreet with GE and use the other two for GA (8 turns)

Barcelona finishes Rifle start cavalry
Tiwan finishes Rifle start cavalry
Cuzco Cannon > Cavalry
Olly > galleon
Baghdad > Grocer > Cavalry
Basra > Forge
Toledo > MG > Rifle
Chehalis > Ironclad > frigate (what a useless piece of crap that Ironclad is. Great for defending coasts but what’s with being limited to the coasts. ARGH)
Ironclad takes out caravel.
MMing to the Nth degree……..automating most workers for building railroads….

T2

Seville > Rifle > Jail (they unhappy so we will have to stick them in jail)
Cuzco > Ctemple
Santiago > cannon
Najran > barracks
Berlin > University > Cathedral (unhappy too)
Texcoco > theater (ok that’s it Monty better find easier names for his cities as these are way too much typing)

T3

Troop deployment (like Wow man) and take city. Forgot the name but the next Aztec city.

T4

Assembly line > Fascism
Madrid > Factory
Barcelona > Factory
Tiwan > Infantry
Cuzco > Infantry
Toledo > Factory
Santiago > Infantry
Tzim something something DOH > Courthouse

Sent frigate towards island east of our fine nation to see if we can settle there to help with domination win.
Take another city. (sorry for no pics but forgot)

T5

Seville > Factory
Cuzco > Infantry
Olly > Galleon
Mecca > Ironclad to protect fishies since he can’t do much else
Santiago > Infantry
Frankfurt > Forbidden Palace (good menu)
Texcoco > Ironclad Monty bugging us with frigates
Take another city

T6

Medina > they’re miserable too so we give them a temple…
Chehalis > settler just in case
Cologne > Courthouse
Teot something something argh maty > theater

T7

Fascism > Democracy (now that’s a contrast)
Cuzco > Mt Rushmore
Santiago > Infantry
Najran > Library

Civ4ScreenShot0076-1.jpg


T8

Cordoba > Infantry
Medina > Jail
Santiago > The Pentagon

Land troops on other landmass

T9

Loose a frigate (well promoted one too argh)
Chehalis > settler > Infantry

Take another city
T10

Tiwan > Christian Missionary
Berlin > Bank
Texacoco > Library

Ok I hit the enter button so took another turn.

T11

Madrid > Statue of Liberty
Demo> Sci Meth (next player please make sure we have enough monasteries)

DO what I forgot to do earlier. Revolt to Police State > emancipation > Free speech..
We have lots of troops and don’t need a lot anymore plus culture is hurting our domination victory. Alex’s culture is affecting our recent victories and Peter too. I was almost tempted to raze that city because of culture influence.

I don’t we will do it with Monty after all of that we are at 55% so we need another 9% but will have to see.

Sorry for no battle stats but it was just too tedious and I am up in three SG's. DOH DOH DOH DOH DOH.....

One last thing there are three galleons heading to wards Monty's last hideout and three galleons/frigates heading from our east coast to Monty. We still have some troops left on mainland to be shuttled onto other land mass. If we do decide to take Peter we will have enough there to take him out and get domination...
 
Roster:

1. Cosmichail --> just played--> Monty is almost toast
2. Krockel -->UP -->Have Monty for breakfast
3. Omurtag -->on deck--> Will Peter have to face this great warrior
4. Adamlan --> --> autoskip --> Abducted by Aliens
5. Foolonthehill --> just played-->Will he see another turn???
 
But, but... but Peter is a brother in faith, oh the humanity :wow: Could we bring into action such a treacherous plan?
 
He has chosen the ways of the liberators which violates our Inquisitor mentality. He allows them to worship freely any religion. How can he allow such a thing. For this shall the knife plunge deeply in his back. He won't know what hit him with that contingency on the island.

I've been trying to play as Toku (because he is one I rarely use and I'm exercising the inner warmonger). Twice I have started near the vikings and they are a tough neighbor. The berserker is a match for the samauri as far as I can tell.

He must convert or die. My fear is that since we have such good relations with him, he will convert (and therefore fail to die).
 
Preturn
I change Madrid to Christian Monastery for some science.

Turn 1
Land troops on Montys last island. Some other brave men advance towards Tlacopan.
Madrid finishes Monastery and begins Statue of Liberty. More important is that Cuzco finishes Mt. Rushmore, no more unhappiness!
57 % land

Turn 2
Defend a counter attack from Monty without losses.
Scientific Method come and Communism is up next for State Property.
Tlacopan defence is down to 0 %, that other city of Monty (I tried to write down his city names on my note but I can’t read what I’ve written :crazyeye: ) is down to 30 %.
Cities begins to come out of revolt I set Theatre as first production for them. Other cities builds factories, universities, observatories and granaries.
57,3 %

Turn 3
Capture Tlacopan without any losses.
The other city is down to 0 % and will certainly be taken next turn.
I begin to produce some settlers near our rally point, to grab some land on that barb island.
57,7 %

Turn 4
And Monty is no more….. J
58 %

Turn 5
Building culture in our boarder cities get us some tiles from Alex.
59 %

Turn 6
Communism comes in and I turn science of because we’re not likely to have any use for any more techs. I revolt to State Property and Universal Suffrage. The later was mainly because of that we got a GE in Madrid and could build Kremlin in 1 turn!
Capture the barbarian city. 7 populations and a lot of improved land, but warriors against infantry is a nono.
Forbidden Palace gets built in Frankfurt. Nice! J
Salamanca gets founded, to bad Alex had time to put a city on the island first though.
60 %

Turn 7
Hit F8 and :coffee:
60,5 %

Turn 8
Rush buy Theatres in a couple of out of revolt cities.
Load some settlers and missionaries in galleons and send them to Barb Island. Alex have galleons with settlers out on the sea to so we’ve to hurry about that one…..
61 %

Turn 9
Tlacopan comes out of revolt and get us up to 62,99 %

Turn 10
Ok we have 63,1 % and Barb City will come out of revolt in two turns. So I continued to play….. hope you don’t mind. :p

Turn 11
63,3 %

Turn 12
BINGO! YATZY! Our inquisition is finished. Nice to work with you boys! :king:



I took some screens but I need to get an account at imageshack to get them up. I will work on that. :)
 
Nice work Krockel and taking the extra turns is fine. I think I personally would like to be more flexibility considering a player's time constraints. If you have lots of time play some more or if you are in a hurry play a short round.
It's the first time winning with Isabella for me. Had a good time with you guys and look forward to our encounters in SG land. Too bad Adiii and Adamlan disappeared but hey we had fun with the four of us.

Good work..
 
Good score too.....
 
:band: :bounce:
