Into The Future

[Heerlo]

bravo. good update my friend. i have a hypotherical for you. what if the turks and siam joined forces and attacked you? i would think you would slice them up quite nicely.

That might be bad, but hopefully I could win.

Thanks, btw.

One question: does Siam have the resources or technology to build nuclear weapons.

They probably have the technology, but I don't think they have uranium.

Edit: Here's a demographic screenshot. Update coming in a bit.

Trouble in the East

American dealings with the two "giants of the east"(Japan and the Aztecs)were never much more than trading after the Aztec-American War. The US simply determined to protect it's own interests on that continent and avoid alliances with the two superpowers.

The US also began to worry about a possible attack from either Japan or the Aztecs on the American territories there. After the war with the Ottomans, the US began bolstering the defense of it's territories there. But Japan and the Aztecs were too distracted by hatred of each other to attack the US, and another war broke out when the Aztecs declared war on Japan in July of 2163.

War Between the Superpowers

Within a month of declaring war, the Aztecs began setting up nuclear warheads in the city of Toyama, near the Japanese border.

Spoiler :

The Japanese responded by readying some of their nuclear arsenal.

Spoiler :

After two years of nuclear war, Japanese forces broke through and captured the Aztec city Toyama, where the Aztec warheads had been set up.

Spoiler :

About a year later the two superpowers called a cease-fire.

American Fears

The war between the Aztecs and Japan changed very little. But the war did make it clear that both the Aztecs and Japan still had nuclear weapons and were not afraid to use them. The US needed to remain vigilant to prevent a nuclear attack on it's territories there.

I wanted to do one more update, but I don't think I'm going to have time right now. I'm leaving tomorrow to go on vacation, so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to respond to questions or comments. But I may try if I have access to internet.

I feel like everything is building up to a final, epic showdown between America and Japan.

 

[Moai_Spammer]

final show showdown you say?

Spoiler :

The herd has been thinning. China, France, Siam, The Ottomans have all been seriously weakened. The remaining world powers are America, The Aztecs, and Japan. And my money is on Japan eclipsing the Aztecs.

It's gonna be a good one!

true that. my money goes to the aztecs. many a game i nearly had won. but monty always seems to either beat me to win,distract me long enough for someone else to win,or he just plain rapes me.

oh crap he is coming! hide

 

[Moai_Spammer]

ha ha monty... good times good times...

Okay best case scenario the Aztecs push south, crippling their army & nuclear program. Then the US can push from the north, with little forces & reinforcements the US can easily cripple the Aztecs, & maybe even re-establish older nations. Although it's unlikely that Heerlo would declare a war like that even though it's be good for everybody.

 

[Moai_Spammer]

i personally think heerlo should team up with japan to wipe out the aztecs, since japan would be pushing up and america would be pushing down, of course the only problem is you can't tell the ai where to attack

I find it easier to kick his butt. especially on immortal. he focuses too much on untrained, regular units. while I train my forces and just hold them off.

i usually do either king or emperor. im an at best average at civ5. i love games like civ5 and age of empires but i am quite medicore at them. i find monty to be big trouble,but its usually rammesses II i have to worry about. whenever monty is in my game,i prepare gatlings,artillery,and some pirvateers,because appetenly he has a habit to be on the other contitent when he attacks me in industiral era. just out of curiousity who is the most common runaway in your games?

I'm finally back from vacation. Thanks Pouakai for making a place to see that messed up screenshot. It's fixed now.

Yep. It was me, the Ottomans, Japan, and the Aztecs that were the four superpowers. Now it's more just me and Japan and the Aztecs. It seemed for a while that Japan was gaining the upper hand, but I think in one of their wars Monty took a city from the commies. But now in this last war Japan took one city back from him. It's hard to tell who's going to ever win in this, if one ever does.

Japan is one of the few remaining civs that I haven't actually been at war with in this game. They usually aren't that mad at me, but relations have been deteriorating with Japan. He was guarded last time I checked.

I'm not sure if it will ever come to that or not. Like Silverman said, it probably would be better for the people, and I'm not even sure how many ancient nations have gone extinct on that continent that I could liberate. There are the Iriquois and Greece, and I think there was once an Arabia on that continent.

Anyway, hopefully another update coming fairly soon, maybe tomorrow.

Sorry. Haven't got around to doing it yet. I'm hoping to do it later today, though.

Welcome to the forums, btw.

Trouble in the West
Turkish Aggression
It was hoped that after the Second Turkish-American War the Ottomans would not show any more aggression. However, the Ottomans, who were still officially at war with Russia and Songhai, continued to plot attacks. For years after the war, the Ottomans, along with Siam, continued to harass the Songhai and blockade their port city Inebolu.

Spoiler :

However, none of these aggressions had caused much concern in the United States until 2166, when the Ottomans began moving an army toward Songhai territory across the sea.

Spoiler :

Now concerned that the Ottomans were planning another invasion, the US sent a fleet from Zonguldak to head off the Turkish navy.
The US did not want another war, but it hoped the American fleet would scare off the Ottoman force.

Spoiler :

The plan succeeded, and the Turkish navy ceased sailing north, but continued the standoff with the American fleet.

Spoiler :

American diplomats tried to secure a peace agreement between the Ottomans and Songhai, but to no avail.

Siamese Aggression

During the standoff with the Turkish navy, Siam was also planning to attack Songhai. And in July of 2169, Siam shocked the world by capturing the Songhai port city of Inebolu.

Spoiler :

This further worsened American-Siamese relations, which were already strained, and the US denounced the Siamese aggression.

The US still held out hope that Songhai could defend itself from Siamese and Turkish aggression, but warned Siam and Turkey that "if this aggression goes too far, American military intervention is a probability." The American people began wondering if another war was nearing.

Funny enough i stumbled onto this thread a few hours before your latest update and I honestly cannot wait for the next one.
