Right, I've got it...probably can't play tonight but will get it in over the weekend.
Sorry to read about your cold Cosmic. Have a honey and lemon lozenge on me.
Squiff = Englishism (at least in my part of the world). Means much the same as "wonky". The rooster is on the wonk, or on the squiff.*
*I may be making all this up.

Ok I was drowsy when I played that. I revolted to "free religion" but never thought we were in war and should have stayed in theocracy. Nice smoke move on my part but we don't need much in the way of troops just some cats/cavalry. It did help with happiness but we could do the same but garrisoning more troops. I was also fixated on getting the science better and Free Religion does boost science. So Jesusoneez do what you think is better but that "anarchy" slows things down.
Our land mass is looking good and maybe we should get some settlers to settle the new land and keep some troops handy for Monty. Just a thought???

I'll have a look at the save tonigt, but by now we should have some heavily XP'd Samurai's. I've got no problem not being in a Theocracy, although if we need a big military build up to defeat Monty then reverting back to Theocracy would be the thing to do.
I'll carry on destroying HC, and hold off on military production as much as possible to build some buildings that'll give us a monetary gain.

Theocracy wouldn't help unless we have a state religion ... did we get one while I was sleeping?
JesusOnEez

You still get the XP for new units if you're in Theocracy, whether you have a religion or not.
Or don't you..?

I don't think you do. I remember it only giving the extra experience points if the city the unit is built in has the state religion.
I think you're thinking about the other civic ... ummm ... vasalage or something. That one gives you extra experience point in all cities.

Another cough, cough moment. In bed last night it dawned on me, we weren't even in theocracy (confusing it with another SG) we were in Paganism. Don't mind me I'll be alright in a week when this darn cold goes away.
Berzerker we do have some seriously upgraded samurais.

Yup, we've got some seriously kick-ass samurais. Well enough to take HC out for good. Only doubt I have is that they might not be enough to take out the rest.

Phew, I'm back now and can play Civ again. 
I haven't looked at the save, but have we definitely decided on Domination? Or is Space still an option? It seems to me that Domination could be difficult with the number of settlers we'd need to build, but I haven't looked at the save in a while...

How 'bout conquest? Is that a viable victory condition or is it disabled?
JesusOnEez
Emperor
I think we'd pretty much decided that we're going to go for Conquest, with Space as a backup (their techs are both compatible to some extent). I think I posted somewhere that I should have disabled Domination as leaving other civs and getting a win would seem to go against the Xenophobic feel of the game.
I also think I put a destruction order in somewhere as well.
HC, followed by Monty shouldn't be too much of a problem...we'd need to leave a few units on their continent to prevent other civs spreading there, or to take out new cities.
Then on to the American/Arabian continent...I would suggest starting war with America first, since they are the most powerful, and hopefully we can bring Saladin in on the fight...
I'll be playing in the next twelve hours, but for now, it's time to go out for lunch and beer.

Can we collaborate with an unclean civ??? I like it, how are they to each other. PS once we weaken GW he might join in on his own for the land grab.
I also think that no matter the price, once we start in on a civ we keep going so getting police state at some point (fascism) would be a great help.
The reason why I say this I noticed HC rebuilt rather quickly just causing us to do it over again. Now the only time I like doing it over again is when teacher says I am a bad boy. LOL
