K2 - Warmongers Delight

630AD(0) - Pre-turn. Looks like we have a nice empire and fairly good military.
660AD(3) - Egypt declare war on Persia.
670AD(4) - Palace expanded. Discovered that Impi cannot be upgraded to Pikeman. :o Egpt buy wine from us for 6gpt (their offer. :) ) Signed RoP with English.
700AD(7) - Discovered Engineering and going for Invention.
710AD(8) - Discovered that with no road bonus on Desert, desert city can never be connected to road network for luxuries until airport. :eek: Up Lux to 10%. Up Science to 50%.
780AD(15) - Discovered Invention going for Gunpowder. We starts Leo's in Zimbabwe.
790AD(16) - We starts Sistine in Bapedi.
830AD(20) - Thus end the rule of Dark Sheer.

I believe we are ready to take Germany out. If we are doing that, make sure we capture the town with Ivory and connect it to the network as soon as possible.

Here is the savegame.

I hope this is not too late to mention, our Knights are all concentrated at the frontline next to Germany. ;)

And I have build up at least 1 Pikeman in all our major cities. Of course, if Impi can be upgraded to Musketman then we are going to rock in another turn when we get gunpowder. :D
 
Yeah impis get upgraded to muskets. Also we shouldn't upgrade all the impi's though. We should keep some around for holding newly conquered cities :) They are quick and cheap to make and who cares if we lose a few to a flip.

btw.. eyas :) haven't had a chance to check the boards over the last week or so. ... So .. who's up next ?
 
Hey D9, is this going to be the only SG you play, because I was wondering if you were wanting to stay in or drop out of my SGs.
 
gunning1: one more post for you to go!!! :D

I can't get phoenix in Trillian, so i guess he still has no net access....
 
no net access... only checking the boards on my way home. :(
Yeah gunnig i was only wanting to stay in this game. I barely have time anymore these days to check the net even when im at work. And starting next week my schedule is changing. So i won't be able to check the boards tuesday through friday. (school year starting makes me an opener not a closer anymore :( )

As for the game I will download it and play it. I will swing by work tomorrow hopefully and post it.
 
I cant promise anything right now.. i got home last night and loaded the floppy into the drive.. and what do ya know.. the only file i need off there is corrupt I hate floppies. this time i brought 2 disks. Yeah i would still like to play ds3. But if you don't hear from me right away go ahead and skip over me.

Germans are willing to talk peace. We could use a few turns to rebuild our defenses in the newely conquered territory. Or you could just finish them off. Either way it doesn't matter. Germany's back has been broken.

I secured Both Ivory and Spices Through this little scurmish. We need Markets and banks in all our core cities then we can switch over to Military production again. We have a huge military leap on almost all the AI's. So we can wait a few turns and build infrastructure up first.
