at the moment i'm just producing maces, cats and forges for the war againt asoka. we can upgrade with that cash and get going soon perhaps in 2 turnsets.
 
anyway i think we can get the rooster back to normal

Roster:
ngraner42
blastoidstalker
sand

Jeejeep-<up now>
spriteSODA-<on deck>
blastoidstalker
sand
ngraner42
 
OK very good turns blastoid and sand. Looks like Asoka's frontier is quite weak, we just need some macemen.
 
A question before I play: We have lots of gold. If I used it to upgrade the five axes in Saxon to macemen, we could attack much sooner. Can I do that?
 
yes definitly. get them to there knees then hit them before they can get back up. chop all the forrests to rush cats it saxon. i wouldn't keep the settlemeny neext to saxon.
 
I played the turns. We're doing pretty well, but I might have made the wrong call on something.

Early: I immediatly upgrade all the axes in Saxon to maces, giving us six. The upgrades brought us down to 527 gold, and I turned research down to 70% so we didn't lose it all too quickly. On the next turn I declared war on Asoka. We easily razed a city that he had just built on the coast in the same location as the one we had razed before. The next turn we razed Lahore to the ground, with the loss of only one sword.

Middle: We pressed on to the next Indian city in the area and also razed it, as it was in a bad spot. The Indian cities that I razed overlapped each other a lot, and I suggest we settle one city to replace those two. We are building a settler in Saxon for that purpose.

Late: We see Asoka's first war elephant, but kill it off with a mace. Another is currently chasing our army as it retreats to Saxon to heal. I have decided to make make Delhi our next target. This may be :smoke: , as delhi is defended by three longbows instead of the other citie's one, but I think that going backwards a little with our army will make it much easier for us to get reinforcements. After we take Delhi and Bombay, the rest of India should be easy. This path also cuts off Asoka's ivory, so no more annoying war elephants.


How annoying:

I'll have the save up in a minute.

Here it is:http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads12/JJ02_AD-1292.Civ4SavedGame
 
first i want to know how to upload saves larger than 500KB.

well i would personally after we completely destroy asoka i would have a brief building period to add military and financial buildings. try to get liberallism to slingshot military tradition to storm pete and qin. then send in the redcoats to destroy them and alex.

with replaceable parts redcoats come slightly later than cav would if we did it the other way but still faster than before so we destroy them a bit slower since we haven't crippled them first. then it would only take a few redcoats to grap enough territory from the land khans on (i'll refer to as the bridge). then march up and suprise sal and we should have enough land for domination.

things to remember.
peter has cossacks which are arguably the one of best UU in the game.
our GP farm could draft alot of redcoats.
if we don't get enough land then we should easily win diplomatic with all that pop.

PS. i don't like to think i'm fanatical about wars, i like peace. the fastest way to peace is through war.
 
Well, i've setup the army needed to the next player- blastiodstalker to kick asoka's ass =P

0: Wow what a mess=P
1: Indian longbow attacks our maceman and looses. our hourse arhcer pillages one of asoka's Ivories.
2: Indian spearman kills our HA=[ Cantanburry finishes Cat->Forge. Karkarum Mace->Mace.
3: Qin demends that we convert to buddhisim. I say no. we cant afford anarchy + he's very traitorious so I dont wanna be his friend=P Done with Engeniering, start Paper. London cat->Pikeman, upgrade the archer at Saxon to Longbow.

4: Indian elphant attacks Saxon and get defeted by our longbow. Christansity spreads to our realm. Whip a theatre at Turfan.
5: York maceman->courthouse, Babashik maceman->maceman. Our military power is rising and asoka's dropping Muhhahhahaha.
6: :sleep:
7: London Pikeman->Lighthouse. Nothingham Maceman->Longbow. Peter finished Notre-Dam.
8: Our mace kills an indian catapult.
9: Finished Paper, starts Education. Delhi is protected by 5 Longbows.
10: Bombarding Delhi defences. Next player can suicide 4 cats on the city and take it. In the Tech path, I advise to finish education, then philo. We have a shot for Liberalisim.

good turnset. when asokas dead we should be in a good postition to be ahead by renasonce.
 
Sand, you're up.

I will have no internet access from Friday until July 9th. If my turns come up then, I will need to be skipped. Someone will need to post the roster and keep things going while I am gone.
 
sorry my internet broke so i haven't been able to go online but i'll be able to play today.
 
well i plaed 7 turns so we can get back to a multiple of 10.

the next person will have to micro it back to produce GP points.

overall
all is good. we our on the path to vicory.

heres more on the great scientist

acadamy
well building this is the most likely choice but i couldn't decide which city london would be first choice but our GP farm could overtake it quickly.

tech
the chosen tech is education and would be good on the path to liberalism

asign to a city
this could work out but i wouldn't use it this way

ps. how do i post a save over 500KB.
