K8: MONSTER MAP - 362x362 map with 24 civs

[Stapel]

Sounds great! Thank you!

Just tell me when to play! Is there a roster or playing sequence or so?

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

Stapel: I have found a roster to be practically impossible with this game.


this is what we try to do:

roster:
me
Chieftess (up now)
Borealis
Aggie
meli
swiftsure

I will have to fit oyu in somewhere there, so we will just wait for the first player who cannot take it and you jump in.

 

[Stapel]

OK

 

[Stapel]

Hmmm, Is this game still alive? I don't want to be rude, but it does seem a bit slow.

Cheers,
Stapel

 

[Aggie]

Hmmm yes Killer. Do we move on? 24 hours are up...

 

[Aggie]

sorry double post

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

Chieftess skipped. Probably too busy moderating

stapel: you are up.

 

[Stapel]

So far:
0. The Romans want us to leave their territory: that’s fine! I trade world maps and get a 50 gold bonus.
1. Size 1 Lugo was building a worker: => temple. Jaen switches to harbor. The Americans already have one in Chicago, so we will be able to trade in 2 turns.
2. A galley was lost as its captain was used to sn00py’s map and did not notice the sea square . But: We captured Frankfurt! Including a catapult and a worker.
New Frankfurt is tougher.
3. Hmmm, no trade with americans or romans, we need navigation. Another Jaen makes new galleys now. The good news: Stuttgart is ours! Muenchen is ours! . We also capture 6 workers.

 

[Aggie]

Don't worry Stapel. A harbor is a very useful improvement... Not only for trade.

4. 170 AD. FP is finished: For the german war is not over yet => rax. A german settler / spearman combi is seen in the north. Only movement.
5. 190 AD. Starvation in Alicante. How did it become size 3 anyway? We capture Neu Frankfurt (an der Oder?) Since it was size 1, it is razed. We build a new city: Zaragazo up north. All movement: A stack of horsemen is ready to attack Berlin now.
6. 210 AD. King Stapel congratulates the people of Wonsan with their Hangign Gardens. Woohahaha Berlin is ours! And so is New Berlin! As we are very likely to destroy more german cities, Barca builds a settler to prevent another civ from building a city.

Wonderfull!


LKendter: you are very welcome with your shameless plug!

7. 230 AD. All quite on the german front. But the Romans declare war on us and sink one of our exploring galleys. We are in no position to give them the right punishment now. But we will get them!! Unfortunatedly two german citizin of Berlin die whiel building a temple. The 2 remaining are angry now, so one will die the next turn. We lose the battle of Bonn, but there will be another one next turn.
8. 250 AD. Bonn is ours!
9. 260 AD. New Koenigsberg is destroyed. The Barcelona settlers settle down on the rubish near: Burgos. It is up to the next king to disband it later or not. As the war against the germans will be won, most cities are ordered to build libraries. Troops move to Dortmund.

Question: Before I finish my last two turns, I'd like to make peace with the germans: This will give us construction and three size one cities (no extra settlers needed). As the germans do not have contact with other civs, so no reputation damage, I plan to kick their asses right after the peace negotiations.

Do I have your permission? Or do you think this is an exploit? I think not, because it would make sense in real life.
Whom's permission do I need?

 

[Lt. 'Killer' M.]

Stapel: the rep hit is there without contact, too.

My view: we need to stick to the treaties.... but if the Germans are insolent enouhg to demand we leave........

 

[Aggie]

I like deals to be kept for 20 turns.... So I suggest to wait with killing the Germans for 20 turns... what's the hurry?

EDIT: or wait for the Germans to declare war of course

 

[Stapel]

En my last turn:
10. The new german capital Hamburg went from size 10 to 8: extra defense I guess. We conquer Dortmund! We move two extra catapults towards Hamburg. We make peace and take anyting from the jerry’s but construction and Heidelberg.

The Save: http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads4/K8-270AD.zip

Please: do not forget to kill the german settler up north when at war again!

N.B. We are still at war with the romans, maybe we can get something from the negotiations??

 

[Stapel]

And a pic of the Remainings of the German Empire: Why did the AI irrigate that wheat between bonn and Hamburg???

 

[Aggie]

Great job Stapel. Good to have you in the team

Next up Borealis?
